The humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) was a sentient aquatic cetaceous mammal species indigenous to Earth. An adult usually ranged between twelve and sixteen meters in length, and weighed approximately thirty-six metric tons. This species was well known for its complex song, which was proven in 2286 to be a full-fledged language. This species became extinct during the 21st century due to overhunting.
In 2286, Admiral James T. Kirk traveled back in time to San Francisco in 1986 and retrieved two humpback whales to answer an alien probe that threatened Earth. The two whales were released into 23rd century San Francisco bay, possibly repopulating the species on Earth. The whales were a mated pair, with a calf on the way.
Information on, a model of, and a global map showing the range of this species was included in a display of other baleen whales that was seen in the Cetacean Institute in 1986. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)

Why all the ND hatred?
A serious question: Why all the ND hatred on the board? A number of other threads talk gleefully of ND getting killed in the championship game by 'bama or some other SEC team, or losing to USC this week. Frankly, I just don't get it.
Yes, they are a rival (at least, for now, while we still play them yearly), but I think the rivalry with ND is different than the OSU and MSU ones. The OSU one is hate + respect; the MSU one is hate + no respect; the ND rivalary, in my opinion, has less hate involved, just two of the most tradition-laden programs in the country playing against one another, often in classic games. Why there is so much enmity in some of the other threads on the board is a puzzle to me.
Beyond that, do people really prefer to see some damn team from the SEC win the title again? I'd *much* rather have a team from the midwest win. Even though ND isn't in the Big Ten, they are much more like a Big Ten team, and finally getting everyone to shut up about how great the SEC is would be fantastic.
Finally, one thing I've seen repeatedly is commentary about how lucky ND has been. Does anyone think there has been a college football champion without luck? If you look back at any undefeated season, there are inevitably a number of plays, which, if they go the wrong way, get you a loss. ND has had a few such plays (Pitt kicker misses in OT, Stanford reaches for goal line but is deemed down), but got the break. Alabama, in contrast, got some breaks against LSU (a game in which they were outplayed), but didn't against A&M, leading to a loss. So sure, they've been lucky, but all undefeated teams get lucky now and then.
Summary for those who think TL and then DR: ND hatred is puzzling; they are a rival of the best kind; I'll be rooting for them against any damn SEC team; sure they are lucky but which unbeaten isn't?
[EDIT: my michigan bio, since it seems to be relevant, as follows. Grew up in Ann Arbor, went to school in Fab Five era, was at many famous UM/ND games including sitting in the rain only to watch Rocket return two kickoffs for TDs. Have published a few diaries here in the past over the years, including a heartbreaking diary of staggering genius, one in which I hate everything, and a piece entitled memories of the game about OSU/UM.]

Palm Beach Civic Association President submitted his Annual Report during the 2016 Annual Meeting. See below:
Palm Beach Civic Association President's Report
April 2016
Quite possibly, this was the best year ever for the Palm Beach Civic Association. Without doubt, we were more active, more engaged, and more relevant than ever before.
There was positive energy in our many activities. Events sold out as Civic Association members and friends turned out in record numbers. Programs like our Visionary Leaders Breakfast with Steve Ross were oversubscribed before formal invitations were sent. An enthusiastic upbeat crowd of more than 300 gathered for Mayor Gail Coniglio's State of Palm Beach address at the Civic Association's Annual Meeting and a champagne and mimosa reception in the Flagler Museum's Grand Hall.
In December, more than 430 members celebrated the season at the Civic Association's festive Holiday Party at the Breakers. This annual event has become wildly popular with residents who gather to greet their neighbors and friends.
Civic Association Director Wilbur Ross and his wife, Hilary, graciously opened their beautiful home in January for a special reception for Civic Association directors and major donors. More than 130 joined the party.
In December, Civic Association directors met for lunch with West Palm Beach Mayor Jerry Muoio who unveiled dramatic development plans for her city. Many who attended expressed concern that a building boom in our neighboring city would create unwanted congestion and traffic flow problems for Palm Beach.
In another meeting, directors heard from Town Council President Michael Pucillo on recruitment and retention in the police and fire-rescue departments, and Underground Utilities Task Force Chairman Jeff Smith.
This year, the Civic Association enjoyed the support of three major partners:
- The Everglades Foundation, a highly-respected, internationally-known organization dedicated to protecting and restoring the Florida Everglades.
- Good Samaritan Medical Center, an award-winning medical complex offering high level care to Palm Beachers.
- Scripps Florida, a world-renowned, bio-medical research center highly regarded for its life-changing contributions to science and health.
These worthy organizations expanded Civic Association horizons as members were treated to a VIP airboat tour of the Florida Everglades and behind-the-scenes looks at Good Samaritan and the Scripps research labs. Meanwhile, the Civic Association hosted special receptions for the new Scripps chairman at The Colony and for Everglades Foundation leaders at the Sailfish Club. And, Civic Association Director Michele Kessler graciously opened her beautiful home for a women's luncheon featuring Good Samaritan's medical staff.
In March, Civic Association Chairman and CEO Bob Wright was the keynote speaker at the association's sixth annual Awards Luncheon at The Breakers. The event sold out as more than 300 members and friends gathered to hear Bob discuss his life experiences as head of NBC Universal and Autism Speaks co-founder, along with his wife, Suzanne. Members who attended received copies of Bob's book, The Wright Stuff, compliments of First Republic Bank.
At the luncheon, the Civic Association Community Service Award in memory of former director Bill Brooks was presented to David Mack for his dedication to Palm Beach and his positive impact on the town. A VIP dinner in Bob Wright's honor was held for the seventy-five Awards Luncheon underwriters at Michele and Howard Kessler's beautiful home with the Kessler's hosting and underwriting the exceptional evening.
This year, a popular Civic Association series called "Our Visionary Leaders" featured directors E. Llwyd Ecclestone, who discussed the history of Palm Beach, and Stephen M. Ross who spoke about his career in development and his role as owner of the Miami Dolphins football team. Other sold out events included a members-only tour and luncheon at the Ann Norton Sculpture Garden.
This season, the Civic Association partnered with Palm Beach Walks to raise funds for new palm trees along North County Road. The organization contributed to the Town Square project, joined with the Citizens Association to underwrite a scholarship for the child of a town employee, and helped fund the town's "Employee of the Year" award.
Concerned about recruitment and retention in the police and fire-rescue departments, the Civic Association joined with the Police Foundation to underwrite a comprehensive compensation study for public safety employees. A nationally recognized research firm was retained to survey other communities on a wide variety of compensation issues such as salaries and pensions, and a final report was presented to the town.
In response to a proposal to raise the sales tax to fund county and school board infrastructure projects, as well as cultural and economic develop needs, Civic Association representatives met with county commissioners and the county administrator individually to express our concerns about the plan. Civic Association director Jack Borland spoke on our behalf at the county commission hearing.
The Civic Association played a key role in the successful underground utilities referendum in March:
- The association's Undergrounding Committee sponsored two community forums on the issue and a walking tour to help residents get their questions answered.
- A special information page was created on the Civic Association web site.
- The Executive Committee appropriated funds to support both an educational and an advocacy campaign.
- A political action committee was formed with Llwyd Ecclestone as chairman and Jerry Frank as treasurer.
- The group retained an expert consultant and joined with other advocacy groups to mount a comprehensive town wide campaign that helped secure the necessary votes to move the project forward.
The Civic Association hosted Save Our Inlet Coalition meetings in 2015-2016. US Representative Lois Frankel and Palm Beach Mayor Gail Coniglio joined the group in expressing their concerns about Port and Inlet expansion. Our consultant, former county commissioner Karen Marcus, provided invaluable service with her vast knowledge of Palm Beach County government and Port of Palm Beach dynamics.
Civic Association committees played an active role in 2015-2016:
- Our Public Relations Committee, chaired by director Brian McIver, designed a series of full page color ads on the theme, "Working Together Works." The campaign detailed the association's role in key issues like Port expansion, the North Bridge, and shore protection.
- Our Beautification Committee, chaired by director Isabel Furlaud, supported the undergrounding referendum, backed the North County Road Tree Initiative and selected the Town Square Park and fountain for the 2016 beautification award.
- Our West Palm Beach Committee met with Civic Association members who live in West Palm Beach to discuss their concerns about excessive growth and traffic gridlock.
- Our Medical Care Committee, chaired by director Jeffrey Levitt, served as a liaison for Civic Association partners Scripps and Good Samaritan, meeting with representatives of both organizations and sponsoring tours of their facilities.
- Our Water Committee, chaired by director Harvey L. Poppel, continued to encourage the use of smart irrigation systems and help the town adopt water conservation regulations.
- Our Palm Beach County Committee, chaired by director Jack Borland, met one-on-one with each of the County Commissioners and the County Administrator to discuss the county budget.
- Our Tax and Finance Committee, chaired by treasurer Pat Cooper, reviewed the town's budget and supported the town's effort to address public safety compensation issues.
- Our Port Committee, chaired by director Robert Holuba, supported the efforts of the Save Our Inlet Coalition.
- Our Public Safety Committee, chaired by director David Duffy, called for a study of the police and fire-rescue departments to address public safety compensation concerns.
- Our Transportation Committee, chaired by director James Weiner, met with town staff to discuss parking and traffic flow issues.
- Our Underground Utilities Committee, chaired by director Jerry Frank, supported the campaign to secure funding for the town's undergrounding program.
In 2015-2016, Civic Association staff—Susan Keenan, Mike Brown, Susi Trenery, and Karen Woodson—went above and beyond the call of duty in serving the needs of our lively community organization. They effectively produced a wide range of activities and programs, educated the public on key issues, welcomed new members, and helped residents address their individual concerns.
I would like to thank our chairman and CEO Bob Wright for his exceptional leadership, our treasurer Pat Cooper for his help in so many areas, our Executive Committee for their vision and guidance, and our directors and members for their enthusiastic support for our mission. It's a privilege for me to join with so many exceptional people in such an important cause.

Web Content Display
Web Content Display
We offer software services to the government by developing different types of portals/websites. These portals act as a single delivery gateway for the government by connecting its various departments and offices thus enabling the public services to reach the people easier and faster. Our websites ensure that citizens from every strata of society have access to all information from the government.
Portals for Public services
By computerizing the public services in the government, the citizens are saved from standing in long queues for several hours. They can check the status of their tasks any time and receive notifications or updates periodically. The government officials find it easier to attend to complaints or feedback from the people. Our portals allow the citizens to log their grievances and enable them to track the entire process up to its closure. This allows the citizens to know about the status of their grievance and lodge any malpractice.
Portals for Panchayats
We develop portals for panchayats that act as a common platform integrating all other existing software applications in the Panchayats. These portals provide information on the entire village, its socio-economic status, demographic data, public infrastructure & other services.
Portals for Employment
Our employment portals enables the government to assign work to people online and also track the employability status of the workers so that all workers are assured of a minimum employability in a month. We also provide information on vacant jobs, temporary employment both in government and public sectors through the employment portals.
Portals for Business
Our business websites for the government help people with information that help them to start and conduct a business, find prospective customers, manage finances, legal compliance, rate of products, trading avenues, and also find information on support and events specific to their sectors. We also create revenue management portals for Panchayats where the software captures information on receipts, expenditure, maintain online cash books, accounts and registers.
Portals for Government schemes
We build portals for specific schemes released by the government. These portals cover information on monitoring and implementation of the schemes, regular updates and notifications from the government. It includes blog forums that allow people to voice their opinions, take active roles in public debates and thus aid the government in decision making.
Portals for Assets and Maps
Some of our portals provide information related to assets & utilities created and maintained by Panchayats, portals that display maps, various routes and important travel destinations within a district or a village.
- Easy access to information
- The citizens get to know of schemes and notifications from the government on a day to day basis
- Connects people living in remote areas

Student Majoring in Journalism and Multimedia Interning for Cox Media Group Ohio Monday, July 16, 2012
Meet Kalea Hall
Major: Double majoring in journalism and multimedia
Expected graduation: May 2013
Hometown: Struthers, Ohio
Internship: Breaking news intern for Cox Media Group Ohio, which includes the Dayton Daily News and WHIO-TV, Dayton, Ohio
Award received: Part of Cox Media team named 'Innovator of the Year'
Please provide an overview of your internship.
My duties as a breaking news intern begin with listening for news on police scanners, and following tips through to see if a story exists. If a story does exist, I write online briefs for the website. I also help to pull police reports and follow up on any stories that may need more attention. During the recent storms that struck Ohio, part of my job was to monitor our social media sites for tips and pictures from our viewers. Eventually, I will get to shadow photographers and reporters in the field.
What's your favorite part of your internship?
I honestly just love being in the newsroom. I love hearing the scanners and being surrounded by both professional print and television journalists. It's been so great learning more about how a news business operates. Working the breaking news desk is especially intriguing because we work for all platforms: print, television and radio. It's exciting to see everyone working together to inform the public on important issues.
Why did you choose to attend Point Park?
I chose Point Park for multiple reasons: the city, journalism program, small class sizes and the one-on-one experience with professors. I knew I was going to be a student at Point Park from the moment I walked on campus. To date, Point Park has not let me down. The amount of growth I've made since freshman year would not have occurred at any other school, I'm sure of that.
Why is your major a good fit for you?
Since I was little, I wanted to be a writer. In high school I enjoyed writing and telling stories as a yearbook staff member. From there, I grew to love writing the news for the school paper. I knew Point Park's journalism program was the perfect fit for my professional development.
Anything else you'd like to add?
Throughout college I have grown because I did not hold anything back. I acquired new skills writing for the school newspaper, learned more about the criminal justice system when I worked for the Innocence Institute, and gained professional networking skills as a member of the Society of Professional Journalists and the Green and Gold Society. I recognized that having an internship was a necessity in becoming a professional journalist, so I got one. Don't be afraid to take chances. I worked hard to chase my dream, and now I'm living it.

PASS CHRISTIAN, MS (WLOX) – Joyce and Chuck Linkey were just five days from moving into their new house on Lemoyne Road when Hurricane Katrina hit.
"The water came up to here. So everything below there was damaged and covered with mud," explained Joyce Linkey as she showed some before-and-after-Katrina pictures of her kitchen.
Joyce remembers well the long months spent gutting the home. There are so many other memories she wants to forget, like the smell.
"Like a garbage dump. Oh, it was so bad," she recalled. "Our son came down from Madison, MS, and helped us and the kids begged us to move out of here."
"All the devastation was here. You drove down the street, you felt sick," said Chuck Linkey. "Even coming in and out, you'd say, 'Who in the world would want to live here?'"
Yet the Linkeys chose to stay, even though Katrina destroyed or flooded dozens of homes in their Pass Christian Isle community. And the couple hoped that by rebuilding their house, their neighbors would also return.
"We lived out here two years with absolutely nobody. You woke up in the middle of the night, you didn't have street lights. You didn't have nothing. So there was a lot stress just in that," said Chuck Linkey.
Mr. Linkey used his own tools and skills as a contractor to repair the house. He saved all of his tools when the couple evacuated before the storm, not realizing how handy they would be later. He also offered to lend his tools to his neighbors.
"My door was always open on the shed here," he said. "If they needed a tool, they just came in and got it and brought it back. I never lost one tool."
"Many times we borrowed tools and even our contractor would borrow their tools sometimes," said his neighbor Sydney Wall.
Sydney Wall and her husband returned to the neighborhood two years later. And not long after that, three more families came back, including Dr. Sharon Sofford.
"I bought this property 25 years ago as of this year, in hopes of retiring here. And I've reached my goal," said Sofford.
They credit the Linkeys for encouraging them to come home.
"It was certainly wonderful to see them here and to see them working so hard to be here. So that was certainly an inspiration for sure," said Wall.
Life is a lot brighter now for the Linkeys. Joyce has taken up art.
"Look at the birds and all the trees," she said, holding up a vibrant painting. "I got acrylics, pastels, oils, little bit of everything."
And Chuck still uses his tools, mainly for minor home repairs. The Linkeys have had their share of challenges over the last five years.
"Chuck had five bypasses, and a lot of that was attributed to all the work and the stress of the storm. So we had a house though and we had each other," said Joyce.
And their determination has helped bring their tiny neighborhood back to life.
"This is a wonderful place to live. It is," said Joyce.
"We got a gorgeous view here. I mean, you walk out on the porch, you got the little park across the street. We just love it. It made our community right out of this little neighborhood."
Katrina destroyed or severely damaged 1,800 homes in Pass Christian. Since then, the city has issued 1,100 certificates of occupancy.

Welcome to Week 8 of "Dancing With the Stars," which host (and birthday boy) Tom Bergeron also dubbed "the special edition of 'Len needs a cookie.'"
So much happened in this two-hour quarterfinal spectacular. Each of the remaining six couples danced two full routines. The first was an individual dance. The second was a dance trio, in which each couple invited another Pro or Troupe player to step along with them. Which is kind of like a side-by-side challenge, but with one less Pro dancer. Pretenders were turned into contenders. 3-D glasses and popcorn were distributed. Florence Henderson and the cast of "Scandal" were spotted. Head judge Len Goodman had a meltdown (hence the cookie). And we were treated to our first perfect 30 score of the season!
That particular honor went to Zendaya and Valentin Chmerkovskiy and helped launch them back into the lead going into the semifinals. But first, Z and V had the fox trot to conquer. Val was really trying to ignite his protégé's more competitive spirit. But with the teenage spirit of Zendaya and a song like "Don't Worry, Be Happy" he soon realized that a smiling Zendaya is one who is at her best. And I don't care if you're an intense Ukranian, it's hard to be grumpy after this routine. I mean, come on: there were balloon images wafting in the background. Val played the canvas framing the Disney Channel star in all her colorful bubbly elegant lightness. "The longer [this competition] goes on, the harder it gets. And in your case the longer it goes on the stronger you get," said Len. "I loved the choreography and I loved the performance." Bruno called Zendaya "a breath of fresh air. … So alive, so fresh, so wonderful to look at." Carrie Ann thought the beginning might have been a bit weak, but "as soon as you got into hold, you took my breath away." Score: 28. But a 10 from Len!

Zendaya reclaimed her throne and established herself as empress supreme of the ballroom in her trio dance with Gleb Savchenko (was Maks not available this week?). Man, that salsa was good—so hot and spicy that you couldn't help open up another bag of tortilla chips for more. Val was the protective older brother who kept Gleb, shuttled in straight from Vanderpump land, to skip the raunch dressing and keep things age appropriate. It was an awesome routine—seamless in transitions and between partners and practically perfect in every way. "They say two's company and three's a crowd. Not in this case," said Len. "These two guys gave up their talent to make you a star." Bruno called it "a star turn—sizzling and dazzling and amazing." Carrie Ann said it was "hot, hot, hot. You are the queen of the salsa." And it got the first perfect 30 of the season! Total: 58 out of 60.
"DWTS" is really a character-builder for Alexandra Raisman. After the Olympic gymnast's near-perfect scores last week she really felt she could let loose. This week, she needed to become the harlot and seductress to take all Mark's money and leave. If only she can tamper down the giggles! And the red light district was in full effect for hers and Mark Ballas' sultry Argentine Tango. Great exposed legs, Batman – check out those splits! Carrie Ann thought Aly's transformation was "unbelievable," though sometimes there were some strange moments coming out of the lifts. "This is about a guy dancing with his mistress, and this is what we got," Len said. "It was smooth, it was seductive, it was terrific." "Aly, I had no idea you could be so good at being bad," Bruno teased. "You have the sultry temptress down to a T." Score: 29.
Aly and Mark had a head start preparing for the trio round because they had already worked with Henry Byalikov last week after Mark's injury. Though this exposed an Achilles heel in Aly's work: She can't count to the music (but who needs to count music when you've been to the Olympics?). And while Aly, Mark and Henry cut a very cool, Fosse-esque figure at the beginning of and the end of the routines, I thought there was something lacking in the energy of the performance. Carrie Ann said she loved Aly's new-found dancing confidence, but pointed out she was "a little flat-footed and lost timing." "You didn't dilly-dally, Aly," said Len, who commended her on the "terrific number" but cautioned her to have "more bounce through the balls of your feet." Bruno praised her for character development. "You've grown so much as a performer through this competition." Total: 56.

Derek Hough was trying to get Kellie Pickler to take Carrie Ann's note and infuse more honest emotion into her dance steps. So with the Viennese waltz, Derek asked the country singer to think of someone she loved. And Kellie, always the strong one, got teary when talking about her grandmother, who passed when she was 15. And their Viennese waltz, set to Mazzy Star's "Fade Into You," definitely touched upon something deeper, even if Kellie didn't just go out there and "fall to pieces." Bruno called the dance "a thing of beauty." Carrie Ann said she saw Kellie "go beyond the steps…this is what I'm looking for," she said. "This is the key to unlocking you as a winner." Len said he would have liked "more heel leads," but said the dance was sophisticated and "had an effortless ease to it."
But all hell broke loose with their paso doble trio, in which Kellie and Derek invited Tristan MacManus, a.k.a. the Irish prince of darkness, to lead Kellie from "this heavenly place to…Hades." And Tristan was quite an imposing dark figure in his black outfit and smoky guyliner, and the whole dance had a great moodiness to it as Kellie's conflicted soul warred against her inner demons. And I loved how Derek flipped the Viennese waltz and created the other, darker side of the mirror. Bruno loved the performance, said "it had high art and high drama" and said it was "a journey into the darkness of angel to devil … I wanted to be a part of it." Carrie Ann hugged Kellie and said "that was incredible" and "you took my breath away." Len, however, found the routine completely irredeemable. "Where's the recognizable paso doble?!" he demanded. "Somebody just hose him down," Tom suggested, before quipping, "It's like a bad daycare over here." But Len wasn't done wreaking his own havoc: He slapped Kellie and Derek (and Tristan) with a harsher-than-harsh 7 for their "hodgepodge" of a routine (and he didn't even say "se-VEN"). Kellie and Derek received a 28 for their waltz, and a 27 for their paso doble. Total: 55.
Jacoby Jones and Karina Smirnoff were coming off their highest scores last week. And in order to keep the momentum, Karina had the NFL star working on his technique for the slower, more sedate Viennese waltz. And it was a "Man's Man's Man's World" with them on Monday, with Jacoby showing off his impressive wingspan and sweeping across-the-floor movement while Karina slunk all over him. And he just about stopped the show when he ripped his shirt open to the audience, causing Carrie Ann to throw her hands up in surrender. "Hold on, let me gather myself," Carrie Ann said. "I thought that was absolutely stunning. … It was such a nice surprise to see you come out here with beautiful posture, elegance and grace." Len asked watchdog and Jacoby's mother what she thought. "I loved it, Len," she called from the audience. "So did I!" Len shot back. "I was looking, you were cooking." Bruno commended Jacoby for making the dance look simple and effortless, even though "you lost it for a second." Score: 27.
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The lure of Southern drawls on screen
Jacoby and Karina invited Cheryl Burke to join them for their paso doble. "You got two bitches!" Cheryl proclaimed gleefully. And while he had the feeling that he was just being volleyed back and forth like a tennis ball in a Karina-Cheryl match, Jacoby handled both ladies with intense matador fashion and kept his signature leaps and end zone shoulder shimmies. "He'll go over them! He'll go under them! He'll go all around them," said Tom. Carrie Ann said Jacoby's presence on the floor was "impressive" but "I feel sorry for Cheryl, you kind of just tossed her," she said. "The man is supposed to take care of his women on the dance floor." Len proclaimed that Jacoby turned from a pretender into a contender. "You came out with fantastic presence," he said. Bruno called Jacoby "raw, powerful untamed," and said his dance was "a paso doble by Quentin Tarantino, splattered everywhere." He just said to take care to keep his hips under on the Spanish line. Jacoby got 25 for his paso. Total: 52.
"General Hospital" star Ingo Rademacher hit a bit of a physical and emotional block this week in his rehearsals with Kym Johnson. Though if there were any fatigue and hesitation about being in the bottom two this week, you couldn't see it during their fox trot performance. They sure cleaned up nice. Peanut seemed a little bored by it all (he's probably counting down the minutes till the after party), but the judges all seemed to be on Ingo's side. Len liked that "it had an ease of movement," even though Ingo could be "a bit stronger in the arms." Bruno said the routine "worked," even though Ingo oscillated between Fred Astaire and Fred Flintstone at times. Carrie Ann, however, was thinking more Gene Kelly: "You have a casual quality to you, and I think you should go with that." Score: 24.
Ingo and Kim invited Lindsay Arnold to come jive with them in the trio round. Kym said a trio dance was like patting his head and rubbing his stomach at the same time. But it turned out that Ingo was born to be a nerd and jive. Ingo played a man on a 3-D matinee date with Florence Henderson while Kym and Lindsay were the confectionary cotton candy skirt-wearing blondes of "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," who dragged Ingo through the screen and brought the movie to life. Len thought the routine was fun and full-on, even though "it could have been a little bit sharper in the feet." Bruno likened Ingo to a kid on a sugar high, saying his "energy was great" but "the kicks and flicks have to be sharper… and tighter." Carrie Ann also agreed, "it was a little flat footed at times," but commended Ingo for bringing the fun back. Ingo and Kym also got a 24 for this dance. Total: 48.
Bachelor Sean Lowe offered Peta Murgatroyd a Mirrorball engagement ring right before commercial, so you know things are getting serious in the "DWTS" glitterverse. And Sean really treated his runaway groom tango with the severity of a heart attack. You've got to give the guy credit for trying so hard, but frankly, I'm still haunted by the sight of those gleaming white striped tube socks paired with black dancing shoes during rehearsals. And also Peta's big sponge of a quasi bridal skirt. Bruno said Sean "started extremely well" but then he lost his footwork. "You really have to concentrate and sustain your dance," the judge said. Carrie Ann agreed: "Now you're back to inconsistency and lost the music again." Len said it was a dance only a mother could love. "It wasn't a great dance," the head judge said. "It was a little bit ugly." So were the scores: a lowly 21.
Sean and Peta were joined by Sharna Burgess for their Jazz routine, which focused on a magician dancer and his two sexy, sleight-of-hand assistants. Bruno said the routine had "plenty of magic with a little bit of tragic. … I wish I didn't watch your feet." Carrie Ann agreed with Bruno. "You got out of sync a few too many times," she said, though she commended Sean on "an ambitious routine." Len said this one was like the first routine: "Attack came in and style went out." Sean said it was so hard to do what he does, "especially with how Caucasian I am," he said. "We're consistent if nothing else." Total: 42.
Which means that Ingo and Kym will probably face the bottom two again alongside Sean and Peta. Which blond hunk are you rooting to stay in the competition? Did you think Kellie and Derek's low 7 score was unnecessarily cranky, even for Len?

New Car Review
2013 BMW M3: New Car Review
Pros: Thrilling V8 power, sounds like a German Ferrari, better-than-you-are handling, civilized ride, excellent high-speed cruiser.
Cons: Convertible's not a looker, BMW refuses to keep building this car forever.
What's New: Holding down the fort till the next-generation M3 arrives, the 2013 M3 features two limited-production variants: the Lime Rock Park Edition and the Frozen Limited Edition.
It happens to all great performers sooner or later, and now it's the 2013 BMW M3's turn. With the next-generation M3 waiting in the wings, it's time for the first and likely last V8-powered BMW 3 Series to say its goodbyes.
BMW has marked the occasion by offering two limited-edition models for 2013. The Lime Rock Park Edition gets treats like Fire Orange paint, the Competition package, and a flat-bottomed steering wheel, while the Frozen Limited Edition comes in one of three matte colors (silver, blue, or red) and also includes the Competition package and a unique interior. It may be too late to buy either one new, however, as BMW built just 200 of the former and 150 of the latter.
Fortunately, you can have the factory build you a regular M3 any way you like, and the lucky few who buy one this year will be getting what's still one of the best cars on the planet. Despite being larger and heavier than its predecessors, the current M3 has the agility of a sports car, while its creature comforts make it a superb road-tripper. Then there's the one-of-a-kind 4.0-liter V8 engine, a high-revving, 414-horsepower masterpiece that's literally a chip off the old block of the previous M5's V10.
Purists can specify a proper manual transmission, too, but don't take that for granted. Word on the street is that the new M3 will be offered exclusively with an automatic.
Hey, we understand that BMW's M Division has to keep up with the times. The future is full of technology and turbos, and that's where next year's M3 is headed. But if you prefer a more traditional "ultimate driving machine," grab a 2013 M3 and don't look back. It is and always will be one of the all-time greats.
Comfort & Utility
The 2013 BMW M3 is available as a coupe or hardtop convertible. Standard features include 18-inch alloy wheels with staggered-width tires, a limited-slip differential, a carbon-fiber roof for the coupe (reverts to steel with the no-cost-option sunroof), xenon headlamps, cloth and leather upholstery, manual sport seats with power-adjustable side bolsters, dual-zone automatic climate control, and iPod/USB and Bluetooth connectivity.
If you just want to keep things simple, you can have your M3 custom-built and tell the factory to stop right there. In case you don't, BMW naturally offers a raft of options, including 19-in wheels, a lowered suspension, electronically adjustable dampers, keyless entry, extended leather upholstery, heated seats with full power adjustments, iDrive, and a 16-speaker, 825-watt sound system.
We'd like to take the M3's standard seats with us in every car we drive. They're supportive in all the right places, yet power-adjustable only where they need to be--at the side bolsters, so you can dial in just the right amount of lateral support for enthusiastic driving. The full power seats are exceptionally comfortable as well, though they give the M3 more of a grand-tourer vibe.
The M3's gauges are classic white-on-black during the day and orange-on-black at night, just like in every BMW we can remember. Materials quality throughout the interior is simply superb. Our only notable cabin quibble is that the optional iDrive screen adds an unsightly hump atop the dashboard (a non-issue in the latest 3 Series with its integrated tablet-like screen).
Rear passengers will find an agreeable amount of room in the coupe, though somewhat less in the convertible. But even with the drop-top, it's pretty remarkable that a car with this kind of performance potential can actually haul four adults around in some semblance of comfort. Moreover, the coupe's trunk has a useful 11.1 cu-ft of space, while the convertible has an impressive 12.3 cu-ft with the top up, though just 7 cu-ft with it down.
Speaking of the convertible, the standard power-operated hard top doesn't do the car's styling any favors, but the added security and all-weather versatility could be viewed as reasonable compensation.
BMW only recently made iPod/USB and Bluetooth connectivity standard across the 3 Series lineup, but now that everything's in order, it's seriously time to retire the old saw about BMW's sparse standard equipment. Fact is, even the most basic M3 has practically every modern feature a driving enthusiast could want.
If you're also a tech enthusiast, however, you'll be mulling whether to spring for the iDrive system, which is the technological heart and soul of any BMW in which it appears. The good news is that the system has improved enormously from its early days. The screen is wide and crisp--one of the best on the market--and the simplified interface employs a number of physical buttons alongside the console-mounted knob for direct access to common pathways. Furthermore, iDrive is now hard-drive-based, so processing speeds are much higher, and you can store eight gigabytes of music in there, too.
The bad news? As we noted above, that beautiful screen requires a different dashboard top with an awkward hump in the middle. It looks like a retrofit rather than a fully integrated design. Check it out in person and see if it bothers you before ordering.
Performance & Fuel Economy
The rear-wheel-drive 2013 M3 is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 rated at 414 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. The default transmission is a 6-speed manual. This engine and transmission tandem is among the most satisfying at any price, in our opinion. The slick shift action and screaming 8,400-rpm redline pair perfectly with a wide range of driving scenarios. Even trips to the supermarket can feel like hot laps with that V8 wailing away through its classic M-spec quad exhaust pipes.
If you don't want to work a clutch in traffic, there's also a 7-speed dual-clutch automated manual, which performs almost flawlessly and serves up racy rev-matched downshifts.
Fuel economy is 14 mpg city/20 mpg hwy except for the 6-speed convertible, which rates 13/20 mpg.
The M3 comes with standard stability control and four-wheel antilock disc brakes. The coupe has six airbags (front, front-side, full-length side-curtain), while the convertible loses the side-curtain bags.
The government has not crash-tested the 2013 3 Series, but the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) gave the 2009-2011 fixed-roof 3 Series--which lives on in the 2013 M3 coupe--its highest rating of "Good" in all categories except roof strength, where it garnered the second-highest "Acceptable" rating. The 3 Series convertible, however, received the second-lowest "Marginal" rating for side impacts, even though frontal-offset protection was deemed "Good." These ratings don't apply perfectly to the M3, which has unique body panels, but they're a useful guide.
Driving Impressions
The M3 is so capable on a winding road or racetrack that it's a little frightening. Prepare to slice through your favorite corners with unprecedented ease. Between its laser-precise steering, robust brakes, and seemingly endless grip, the M3's athleticism is truly epic. And should the tail happen to swing out for any reason, the self-locking M limited-slip differential is there to make you look like a drifting champ.
These jaw-dropping dynamic talents make the M3's civility during normal driving all the more remarkable. The ride is taut, not surprisingly, but every impact feels like it's been filtered through multiple layers of expensive rubber, so harshness over bumps is a non-issue. On the highway, the M3 is absolutely unflappable, maintaining a quiet composure at all speeds. Although the convertible is much heavier and less rigid than its fixed-roof sibling, it's still astoundingly capable. Cars are so good these days that it's hard to choose just one as the best all-around performer, but even on its last legs, this M3 has got to be in the conversation.
Other Cars to Consider
Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG: The baby AMG has never had the finesse of the M3, but that intoxicating hand-built 6.2-liter V8 should be an effective salve for your wounded pride.
Nissan GT-R: Thanks to all-wheel drive and some serious computer wizardry, the nearly 4,000-pound GT-R handles like an exotic, and it's exceptionally user-friendly.
Porsche 911: The new "991" Porsche 911 comes closest to the M3's ideal of refined athleticism, but it costs more and lacks the M3's everyday comfort and true 4-seat practicality.
AutoTrader Recommends
We love the bone-stock M3 so much that we wouldn't change a thing--just give us the base coupe with the carbon-fiber roof and the manual transmission. Well, alright, maybe we'd tack on that 825-watt sound system.

A source close to Shonn Greene says the running back adamantly denied advocating for a quarterback change. Greene plans to clarify his statements later today.I saw this coming as soon as I read the quotes in the article - it's easy to read the quotes from Mike Silver and construe it as Yahoo! has, but it was also some sort of roundabout comment in support of Sanchez.
Of course today Greene's comments will be prepared, measured and will be coached up by the PR team. They'll think of a way to explain it ... but no matter what's said today, Shonn Greene allowed publicly yesterday that players are thinking about 'what if' scenarios that don't involve Mark Sanchez.
UPDATE: Here's a clip from quotes Shonn Greene made to Rich Cimini last night.
I spoke to Greene late Wednesday night. This is what he said about his quote: "I said, 'We're 3-6 and something has to change.' At no time did I say we have to change quarterbacks or Tebow is terrible or any of that."
Asked to state his position on the Mark Sanchez-Tim Tebow situation, Greene told me, "It is what it is. Mark is our starting quarterback, Tebow is our backup and he does the Wildcat."

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors and others with additional information regarding Workday's results, we have disclosed the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, non-GAAP operating margin, free cash flows and trailing twelve-month free cash flows. Workday has provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this earnings release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These non-GAAP financial measures, other than free cash flows, differ from GAAP in that they exclude share-based compensation and, for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, a one-time charge related to the contribution of 500,000 shares of common stock to the Workday Foundation. Free cash flows differ from GAAP cash flows from operating activities in that it treats capital expenditures and assets acquired under a capital lease as a reduction to cash flows.
Workday's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, for short- and long-term operating plans, and to evaluate Workday's financial performance and the ability of operations to generate cash. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures reflect Workday's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in Workday's business, as they exclude expenses that are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Workday's operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. Additionally, management believes information regarding free cash flows provides investors and others with an important perspective on the cash available to make strategic acquisitions and investments, to fund ongoing operations and to fund other capital expenditures.
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and others in assessing Workday's operating performance due to the following factors:
Additionally, we believe that the non-GAAP financial measure, free cash flows, is meaningful to investors because we review cash flows generated from operations after deducting capital expenditures, whether purchased or leased, due to the fact that these expenditures are considered to be an ongoing operational component of our business. The use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations as they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect Workday's operations. Workday compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. Management encourages investors and others to review Workday's financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

My project today combines the gorgeous Damask stencil (it measures 4" x 5 1/2", so it makes a great background!!) with the cling rubber Asperula stamp. I embossed my background with the stencil in my Vagabond (plate order from the bottom up: solo platform, stencil, card stock, tan rubber mat and a few card stock shims, two clear plates); before removing my card stock from the stencil I sponged blue ink on it, to highlight the pattern.
I know the pic is a bit off....my camera died this week, and it'll be a week or so before I can get a replacement. I'm using my phone for the time being!

Since Christmas is right around the corner, I planned on writing about the Beatles' Fan Club Christmas records. However, last week's mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, has halted the usual festivities, teaching us that life is fragile.
When such a tragedy occurs, music can be a source of comfort, a way to somehow make sense of unfathomable truth. Throughout their group and solo careers, the Beatles wrote about difficult subjects, forcing listeners to open their minds to new ideas, enact change, or grieve for those suffering from injustice. Paul McCartney's 1997 composition "Little Willow" exemplifies this tradition; while not calling for revolution, he gives voice to those experiencing the loss of a loved one.
McCartney was inspired to write this delicate song in 1994, when Ringo Starr's first wife Maureen Cox Starkey died of cancer. McCartney and wife Linda had remained close with Maureen and her children with Starr, and expressed great sadness at the news. As McCartney explained in 1997 interviews promoting the album Flaming Pie, he wished to write a song to comfort her kids and help himself work through the grief. The "little willow" mentioned in the lyrics refer not only to Maureen, but to anyone who has passed away from illness or an accident. In Flaming Pie's liner notes, he explained that "I wanted to somehow convey how much I thought of her. For her and her kids. It certainly is heartfelt, and I hope it will help a bit."
The recording of Flaming Pie commenced after the completion of the 1995 Anthology documentary, and featured Jeff Lynne at the helm. Due to Linda's own cancer struggles, the album sessions spanned two years. Lynne, the Electric Light Orchestra frontman who had previously worked with George Harrison and the so-called "Threetles" for the Anthology tracks "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love," used a fairly light touch with Paul McCartney, avoiding swamping the songs with overproduction. "Little Willow" typifies this new approach, although the typical ELO sweeping harmonies accent McCartney's lilting voice.
Recording at his Essex home studio the Mill, McCartney and Lynne began working on the track on November 21, 1995, according to the MACCA-Central site. He was juggling several other projects at the time, including the symphonic work Standing Stone, a one-off performance with Elvis Costello, and various tracks that surfaced after Flaming Pie. Yet "Little Willow," as well as the entire album, does not have a rushed feel. Instead, it sounds intimate, as if he were simply playing in a small room with — and for — a select audience. As on albums like McCartney and McCartney II, he plays most of the instruments on the track: bass guitar, acoustic guitar, Spanish guitar, electric guitar, piano, harpsichord, harmonium, mellotron, and percussion. Lynne provided assistance on backing vocals, electric spinette, and harpsichord. Appropriately enough, longtime Beatles engineer Geoff Emerick presided over the session, adding another Beatle-esque touch to the proceedings.
Over a simple arrangement slightly reminiscent of chamber music, Paul McCartney's voice lies in the forefront of the mix. "Bend, little willow; winds gonna blow you, hard and cold tonight," he sings, clearly referring to coping with trying circumstances. "Life, as it happens, nobody warns you; willow, hold on tight," he continues, suggesting that we must accept what we have no control over in life. While he appears to address the loved one, he indirectly refers to those left behind: "Sleep little willow, peace gonna follow; time will heal your wounds." Here McCartney assures Maureen's family that she is out of pain and in a state of peace. Not only will her physical wounds heal, but the family will also recover from their anguish.
Several heartbreaking lines lie within the tender ballad, both comforting the family but empathizing with their grief: "Grow to the heavens, now and forever; always came too soon," he gently croons, using his voice's lower registers. Who cannot relate to the feeling that life is too short and can end suddenly? But he assures listeners that "nothing's gonna shake your love, take your love away; no one's out to break your heart; it only seems that way." In other words, life may seem unbearable upon losing someone dear, but enduring love will remain and overcome sorrow.
In these challenging times, such a message deeply resonates: It expresses our agony, but also consoles us. When something as inexplicable as the Sandy Hook school tragedy occurs, music can help us make sense of the world; at the very least, it makes us feel like we're not alone in our sadness. "Little Willow" may have described one person's death, but its impact reaches much further.

COLUMBIA, SC (TheBigSpur) - South Carolina has its first defensive back on board for the 2014 class. And the Gamecocks had to come from behind to land him, TheBigSpur.com reported.
Four-star CB Wesley Green is the Gamecocks' first defensive back commitment in the class.
Four-star cornerback Wesley Green (Lithonia, Ga./Martin Luther King Jr.) committed to South Carolina Friday over offers from Clemson, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, Ole Miss, North Carolina, Miami and Auburn among many others.
The 5-foot-11, 170-pound prospect commits to the Gamecocks fresh off a visit to the South Carolina campus last weekend.
Green was recruited to the Gamecocks by defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward, but he also has a strong relationship with secondary coach Grady Brown.
The Gamecocks again got an assist from 2014 linebacker commitment Bryson Allen-Williams (Ellenwood, Ga./Cedar Grove) who worked Green hard as well.
Clemson initially held the lead for Green, but following a visit to Tennessee he put the Vols on top. After that visit wore off, Green actually named a top two of South Carolina and Clemson before he had ever visited Columbia. Green finally made it to the South Carolina campus after having to cancel a couple of trips and ultimately committed to the Gamecocks.
Green is ranked the No. 27 cornerback in the country and No. 31 prospect in Georgia by 247Sports with a rating of 90. In the industry-generated 247Composite, Green is considered the No. 18 cornerback, No. 179 overall prospect and No. 15 prospect in Georgia with a rating of .9234.

Telstra rejects US claims
Telstra has rejected claims in a US report that it was misusing its market dominance.
A new report by the US Trade Department said the telecommunication giant was slow to open up access to its main phone network and charged inflated prices to wholesale customers wanting to use its networks.
"US industry remains concerned about the ability of the majority government-owned telecommunications firm, Telstra, to abuse its monopoly power," the report said.
The report also said Telstra's mobile phone termination rates were among the highest in Asia and while the Australian government was preparing to sell its 51.8 per cent shareholding in Telstra, it had not addressed the issue of foreign ownership restrictions on the telco.
Currently, foreign firms cannot own any more than 35 per cent of Telstra, a level the government has been reluctant to change.
A Telstra spokesman said today the US report had also praised the progress being made to address some of these issues.
The spokesman said the report acknowledged that Telstra's leased line rates were now comparable with other competitive markets and companies seeking to challenge these rates had the opportunity to do so under Australia's rules.
"The allegations quoted in the USTR report are made every year by Comptel-Ascent, a lobby group comprising some telecommunications carriers including our competitors, who use this opportunity every year to complain about Telstra in their own self-interest," the spokesman said.
"The USTR is bound to reflect the views of US representations made to it so it duly notes CompTel's complaints every year, despite Telstra's continued efforts to make it clear that the allegations are unfounded.
"Telstra's submissions have been noted and accepted by the USTR in its report."
