Each time we fall asleep, we enter a world more vast and strange than anything we might fathom in waking life. Many people allow themselves to be swept by the oneiric tide as passive observers, but lucid dreaming, the practice of becoming aware that one is dreaming, puts you in the driver seat. This technique allows the dreamer to manipulate the limitless world of the subconscious. Although lucid dreaming was practiced actively by philosophers and mystics in ancient times, modern awareness of it only resurfaced in the late 20th century.
Robert Waggoner has been lucid dreaming since 1975, and has since established himself as a pioneer in the emerging field of lucid dream research, teaching others how to investigate their inner worlds through dreaming. He is the co-editor of the online magazine The Lucid Dreaming Experience, speaks about lucid dreaming at conferences, workshops, and college classrooms worldwide, and has been interviewed by various media outlets such as CNN , ABC News, and HuffPost. His new book, Lucid Dreaming: Plain and Simple, co-authored with Caroline McCready, has been hailed "a classic" by experienced lucid dreamers.
I had the chance to speak with Robert Waggoner about why lucid dreaming has resurfaced in the 20th century, who practices lucid dreaming, the transformative potential of this practice, and more.
Faye Sakellaridis: What major factors have contributed to the recent, widespread interest in lucid dreaming? What's different now that draws so many people to this ancient spiritual technique?
Robert Waggoner: When the scientific evidence for lucid dreaming emerged in 1980, everything changed. It clearly showed an amazing paradox; namely, you could be simultaneously asleep, dreaming and consciously aware. Moreover, it gave this ancient spiritual practice of lucid dreaming a sense of scientific acceptance and respect. Lucid dreaming could no longer be denied as impossible.
Since I taught myself in 1975 a simple practice to become lucid, I felt thrilled to read about Stephen LaBerge's scientific evidence in the January 1981 issue of Psychology Today. Finally, I could come out and talk about this incredible state of awareness and its profound implications.
As LaBerge and others wrote about techniques to induce lucid dreams, the flame of lucid dreaming began to catch fire and people had their own amazing lucid dreams. However, the science of lucid dreaming moved relatively slowly (since actually dreams and lucid dreams receive very little research funding), even though some experienced lucid dreamers began to report fascinating lucid dreams of consciously acquiring precognitive or clairvoyant information, physically healing themselves or another, interacting with the deceased and engaging spiritual awareness – and they wanted to discuss and explore these exciting new developments! Others (who may have felt they needed to defend lucid dreaming from non-scientific and spiritual concerns) denied the possibility of these lucid dreams, and basically ignored its history as a tool of spiritual investigation and spiritual growth.
However in the past two decades or so, the web has allowed for lucid dreaming 'support groups' to flourish in various forums, and Hollywood has fanned the flames with movies like The Matrix and Inception. Finally, books like Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self and others, showed people how to lucid dreaming more deeply and explore the psyche, consciousness and the nature of reality.
Together this has spread the flame of lucid dreaming internationally.
What is the most surprising place where you've seen lucid dreaming currently practiced?
Lucid dreaming seems very democratic. Whether you sleep in a penthouse on Park Avenue, a yurt in Inner Mongolia or a hacienda in Argentina, you have a similar chance of becoming lucidly aware in a dream, assuming that's your intent. Lucid dreaming can find you wherever you are, regardless of class, status, race or creed. It's an equal opportunity mind-blower.
I've given lucid dreaming workshops in places like Helsinki Finland, Bogota Colombia and even Viroqua Wisconsin (population 4,396). Also, I'm seeing lucid dreaming books translated into Chinese, Korean, Czech, Finnish and other languages, so the excitement continues to spread. If you have had a lucid dream, it probably ranks as one of your life's 'peak experiences'.
The first documentation of lucid dreaming was found in the ancient Hindu text, the Upanishads. Descriptions of lucid dreaming have also been found in ancient Greece, Buddhist texts, Ancient Islam, and seventeenth century Enlightenment philosophy. Why was the practice so rare in the modern West until recently?
Perhaps the modern West shared some of Christianity's mixed feelings about dreaming in general, and needed the hard scientific evidence for lucid dreaming, which came in the late 1970's. And perhaps Christianity's focus on salvation as the primary goal sent it on a different path, than religions which focused more on understanding the nature of reality (and accepted lucid dreaming as a tool to investigate that).
Although the Dutch scientist, Frederik van Eeden, spoke about lucid dreaming in 1913 to the Society for Psychical Research in London, and tried to generate interest, he had little success. Even earlier, the Frenchman, Marquis d'Hervey de Saint-Denys, wrote in 1867 the book, Les Reves et les Moyens de les Diriger: Observations Pratiques (translated as Dreams and the Ways to Direct Them: Practical Observations). But their efforts failed to spark a widespread investigation. Even Sigmund Freud ignored them.
Richard Linklater's "Waking Life" used the premise of lucid dreaming to lead the viewer through a mosaic of different philosophical ideas. How important was that film in bringing awareness to lucid dreaming?
For some, 'Waking Life' woke them up to the existence of lucid dreaming, and its philosophical implications. If you can become aware of dreaming while in a dream, and achieve that state of meta-awareness, then what does it say about the other 99.9% of the time, when you fail to 'get it' and go along with the dream? Could waking life be a kind of trance that we go along with too? Does an actual actuality exist?
This reminds me of a radio show I did on lucid dreaming with Iowa Public Radio. A man called in and said that he began to practice Soto Zen and without any intent, naturally began to have lucid dreams frequently. So you can see how the simple act of reflecting on big questions or even koans may initiate a more reflective state, and result in lucid dreams.
Unfortunately for this guy, one day he told his Zen master about the lucid dreams, and the Zen master told him, 'Let it go!' So he did, and the lucid dreams ceased.
Now there are smartphone apps that help people hone their lucid dreaming skills. What role do you think technology can play in lucid dreaming?
Apps exist for reality checks, binaural beats, dream signs, audio cues and more. For some, it truly helps them to focus on becoming lucidly aware. But remember: people have been lucid dreaming for thousands of years before smartphones.
Using the tool of mindful awareness can be even more powerful than apps – and it doesn't require batteries or a data plan.
How different is the neurological state of a brain during lucid dreaming from regular dream states?
In the last few years, some wonderful neurophysiological studies of lucid dreaming have appeared, and I note these in my new book, Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple. In one study led by researcher Ursula Voss, they used a 19 channel EEG to measure brain activity when lucid dreaming. The results led them to call lucid dreaming "a hybrid state of consciousness with definable and measurable differences from waking and REM sleep, particularly in the frontal areas" of the cerebral cortex (portions of which showed increased activity while lucidly aware). This "hybrid state" shows a special neurological state in which dreaming and conscious activity occur simultaneously.
In a 2012 study, a scientific team used EEG and fMRI technology to evaluate brain activity when lucid dreaming. Research member, Michael Czisch told a Science Daily reporter that the lucid dreamers' cerebral cortex show much increased activity in the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, the frontopolar regions and the precuneus. These portions of the brain are commonly associated with self-assessment, evaluating thoughts and feelings and self-perception (respectively, according to Czisch). The fact that they showed activity during a lucid dream supports lucid dreamers' claim of being able to make choices, conduct experiments and explore the dream state when lucidly aware.
What first drew you personally to lucid dreaming?
At first, lucid dreaming seemed like a magical theater of the Mind, where I could fly through walls, do magic like Harry Potter and explore the dream symbols. But then, I came to discover an 'awareness behind the dream' (that is, a non-visible awareness), which I could make requests of like, 'Show me something important for me to see!' or 'Let me experience unconditional love!' When a deeply profound and intelligent response would occur to those requests (and utterly change the entire dream scene), I soon realized that lucid dreaming allows you to engage your larger awareness, or the conscious unconscious.
That discovery took me deeper. And I kept following the path, even to the point of going beyond lucid dreaming.
Please share a striking example of how lucid dreaming has transformed someone's life.
During a 30 day online workshop that I conduct through GlideWing, I noted that one woman, a long term Buddhist meditator, had not had a lucid dream by mid-course. I sent her a message and asked, 'What would you do if you became lucid tonight?' She responded that if she became lucid, she would send healing energy to her elderly mother who lived in a nursing home about 1,000 miles away. I asked if her mother had agreed to an intervention like this, and she replied that her elderly mother was in such pain, that she had agreed to having prayers and other assistance on her behalf.
So I gave this attendee some special attention to help her become lucid. Within a couple of days, she had her first lucid dream but became so excited that she popped out. The week after, she had two lucid dreams, and stopped in both of the lucid dreams to send healing energy to her mother.
The morning after this second successful lucid dream, the phone rang. Her elderly mother called and said, "You better sit down, I have some wonderful news." Her mother told her that for the first time in two and a half years, all of her bedsores had disappeared. For the first time in two and a half years, she felt no pain.
Needless to say, the lucid dreamer felt amazed. And so did her mother, when the daughter explained how in lucid dreams, she had used her intent to send healing energy.
Thankfully, lucid dreaming allows for scientific experimentation, so that these kind of events can be explored thoughtfully. But if you ask me, lucid dreaming is a revolutionary psychological tool to explore the nature of the psyche, consciousness and this big dream (or mental co-creation) we call reality.

The Philosophy of Relative Existences by Frank Stockton
In a certain summer, not long gone, my friend Bentley and I found ourselves in a little hamlet which overlooked a placid valley, through which a river gently moved, winding its way through green stretches until it turned the end of a line of low hills and was lost to view. Beyond this river, far away, but visible from the door of the cottage where we dwelt, there lay a city. Through the mists which floated over the valley we could see the outlines of steeples and tall roofs; and buildings of a character which indicated thrift and business stretched themselves down to the opposite edge of the river. The more distant parts of the city, evidently a small one, lost themselves in the hazy summer atmosphere.
Bentley was young, fair-haired, and a poet; I was a philosopher, or trying to be one. We were good friends, and had come down into this peaceful region to work together. Although we had fled from the bustle and distractions of the town, the appearance in this rural region of a city, which, so far as we could observe, exerted no influence on the quiet character of the valley in which it lay, aroused our interest. No craft plied up and down the river; there were no bridges from shore to shore; there were none of those scattered and half-squalid habitations which generally are found on the outskirts of a city; there came to us no distant sound of bells; and not the smallest wreath of smoke rose from any of the buildings.
In answer to our inquiries our landlord told us that the city over the river had been built by one man, who was a visionary, and who had a great deal more money than common sense. "It is not as big a town as you would think, sirs," he said, "because the general mistiness of things in this valley makes them look larger than they are. Those hills, for instance, when you get to them are not as high as they look to be from here. But the town is big enough, and a good deal too big; for it ruined its builder and owner, who when he came to die had not money enough left to put up a decent tombstone at the head of his grave. He had a queer idea that he would like to have his town all finished before anybody lived in it, and so he kept on working and spending money year after year and year after year until the city was done and he had not a cent left. During all the time that the place was building hundreds of people came to him to buy houses, or to hire them, but he would not listen to anything of the kind. No one must live in his town until it was all done. Even his workmen were obliged to go away at night to lodge. It is a town, sirs, I am told, in which nobody has slept for even a night. There are streets there, and places of business, and churches, and public halls, and everything that a town full of inhabitants could need; but it is all empty and deserted, and has been so as far back as I can remember, and I came to this region when I was a little boy."
"And is there no one to guard the place?" we asked; "no one to protect it from wandering vagrants who might choose to take possession of the buildings?"
"There are not many vagrants in this part of the country," he said, "and if there were they would not go over to that city. It is haunted."
"By what?" we asked.
"Well, sirs, I scarcely can tell you; queer beings that are not flesh and blood, and that is all I know about it. A good many people living hereabouts have visited that place once in their lives, but I know of no one who has gone there a second time."
"And travellers," I said, "are they not excited by curiosity to explore that strange uninhabited city?"
"Oh yes," our host replied; "almost all visitors to the valley go over to that queer city--generally in small parties, for it is not a place in which one wishes to walk about alone. Sometimes they see things and sometimes they don't. But I never knew any man or woman to show a fancy for living there, although it is a very good town."
This was said at supper-time, and, as it was the period of full moon, Bentley and I decided that we would visit the haunted city that evening. Our host endeavored to dissuade us, saying that no one ever went over there at night; but as we were not to be deterred he told us where we would find his small boat tied to a stake on the river-bank. We soon crossed the river, and landed at a broad but low stone pier, at the land end of which a line of tall grasses waved in the gentle night wind as if they were sentinels warning us from entering the silent city. We pushed through these, and walked up a street fairly wide, and so well paved that we noticed none of the weeds and other growths which generally denote desertion or little use. By the bright light of the moon we could see that the architecture was simple, and of a character highly gratifying to the eye. All the buildings were of stone, and of good size. We were greatly excited and interested, and proposed to continue our walks until the moon should set, and to return on the following morning--"to live here, perhaps," said Bentley. "What could be so romantic and yet so real? What could conduce better to the marriage of verse and philosophy?" But as he said this we saw around the corner of a cross-street some forms as of people hurrying away.
"The spectres," said my companion, laying his hand on my arm.
"Vagrants, more likely," I answered, "who have taken advantage of the superstition of the region to appropriate this comfort and beauty to themselves."
"If that be so," said Bentley, "we must have a care for our lives."
We proceeded cautiously, and soon saw other forms fleeing before us and disappearing, as we supposed, around corners and into houses. And now suddenly finding ourselves upon the edge of a wide, open public square, we saw in the dim light--for a tall steeple obscured the moon--the forms of vehicles, horses, and men moving here and there. But before, in our astonishment, we could say a word one to the other, the moon moved past the steeple, and in its bright light we could see none of the signs of life and traffic which had just astonished us.
Timidly, with hearts beating fast, but with not one thought of turning back, nor any fear of vagrants--for we were now sure that what we had seen was not flesh and blood, and therefore harmless--we crossed the open space and entered a street down which the moon shone clearly. Here and there we saw dim figures, which quickly disappeared; but, approaching a low stone balcony in front of one of the houses, we were surprised to see, sitting thereon and leaning over a book which lay open upon the top of the carved parapet, the figure of a woman who did not appear to notice us.
"That is a real person," whispered Bentley, "and she does not see us."
"No," I replied; "it is like the others. Let us go near it."
We drew near to the balcony and stood before it. At this the figure raised its head and looked at us. It was beautiful, it was young; but its substance seemed to be of an ethereal quality which we had never seen or known of. With its full, soft eyes fixed upon us, it spoke.
"Why are you here?" it asked. "I have said to myself that the next time I saw any of you I would ask you why you come to trouble us. Cannot you live content in your own realms and spheres, knowing, as you must know, how timid we are, and how you frighten us and make us unhappy? In all this city there is, I believe, not one of us except myself who does not flee and hide from you whenever you cruelly come here. Even I would do that, had not I declared to myself that I would see you and speak to you, and endeavor to prevail upon you to leave us in peace."
The clear, frank tones of the speaker gave me courage. "We are two men," I answered, "strangers in this region, and living for the time in the beautiful country on the other side of the river. Having heard of this quiet city, we have come to see it for ourselves. We had supposed it to be uninhabited, but now that we find that this is not the case, we would assure you from our hearts that we do not wish to disturb or annoy any one who lives here. We simply came as honest travellers to view the city."
The figure now seated herself again, and as her countenance was nearer to us, we could see that it was filled with pensive thought. For a moment she looked at us without speaking. "Men!" she said. "And so I have been right. For a long time I have believed that the beings who sometimes come here, filling us with dread and awe, are men."
"And you," I exclaimed--"who are you, and who are these forms that we have seen, these strange inhabitants of this city?"
She gently smiled as she answered, "We are the ghosts of the future. We are the people who are to live in this city generations hence. But all of us do not know that, principally because we do not think about it and study about it enough to know it. And it is generally believed that the men and women who sometimes come here are ghosts who haunt the place."
"And that is why you are terrified and flee from us?" I exclaimed. "You think we are ghosts from another world?"
"Yes," she replied; "that is what is thought, and what I used to think."
"And you," I asked, "are spirits of human beings yet to be?"
"Yes," she answered; "but not for a long time. Generations of men--I know not how many--must pass away before we are men and women."
"Heavens!" exclaimed Bentley, clasping his hands and raising his eyes to the sky, "I shall be a spirit before you are a woman."
"Perhaps," she said again, with a sweet smile upon her face, "you may live to be very, very old."
But Bentley shook his head. This did not console him. For some minutes I stood in contemplation, gazing upon the stone pavement beneath my feet. "And this," I ejaculated, "is a city inhabited by the ghosts of the future, who believe men and women to be phantoms and spectres?"
She bowed her head.
"But how is it," I asked, "that you discovered that you are spirits and we mortal men?"
"There are so few of us who think of such things," she answered, "so few who study, ponder, and reflect. I am fond of study, and I love philosophy; and from the reading of many books I have learned much. From the book which I have here I have learned most; and from its teachings I have gradually come to the belief, which you tell me is the true one, that we are spirits and you men."
"And what book is that?" I asked.
"It is 'The Philosophy of Relative Existences,' by Rupert Vance."
"Ye gods!" I exclaimed, springing upon the balcony, "that is my book, and I am Rupert Vance." I stepped toward the volume to seize it, but she raised her hand.
"You cannot touch it," she said. "It is the ghost of a book. And did you write it?"
"Write it? No," I said; "I am writing it. It is not yet finished."
"But here it is," she said, turning over the last pages. "As a spirit book it is finished. It is very successful; it is held in high estimation by intelligent thinkers; it is a standard work."
I stood trembling with emotion. "High estimation!" I said. "A standard work!"
"Oh yes," she replied, with animation; "and it well deserves its great success, especially in its conclusion. I have read it twice."
"But let me see these concluding pages," I exclaimed. "Let me look upon what I am to write."
She smiled, and shook her head, and closed the book. "I would like to do that," she said, "but if you are really a man you must not know what you are going to do."
"Oh, tell me, tell me," cried Bentley from below, "do you know a book called 'Stellar Studies,' by Arthur Bentley? It is a book of poems."
The figure gazed at him. "No," it said, presently, "I never heard of it."
I stood trembling. Had the youthful figure before me been flesh and blood, had the book been a real one, I would have torn it from her.
"O wise and lovely being!" I exclaimed, falling on my knees before her, "be also benign and generous. Let me but see the last page of my book. If I have been of benefit to your world; more than all, if I have been of benefit to you, let me see, I implore you--let me see how it is that I have done it."
She rose with the book in her hand. "You have only to wait until you have done it," she said, "and then you will know all that you could see here." I started to my feet and stood alone upon the balcony.
"I am sorry," said Bentley, as we walked toward the pier where we had left our boat, "that we talked only to that ghost girl, and that the other spirits were all afraid of us. Persons whose souls are choked up with philosophy are not apt to care much for poetry; and even if my book is to be widely known, it is easy to see that she may not have heard of it."
I walked triumphant. The moon, almost touching the horizon, beamed like red gold. "My dear friend," said I, "I have always told you that you should put more philosophy into your poetry. That would make it live."
"And I have always told you," said he, "that you should not put so much poetry into your philosophy. It misleads people."
"It didn't mislead that ghost girl," said I.
"How do you know?" said Bentley. "Perhaps she is wrong, and the other inhabitants of the city are right, and we may be the ghosts after all. Such things, you know, are only relative. Anyway," he continued, after a little pause, "I wish I knew that those ghosts were now reading the poem which I am going to begin to-morrow."

High School students from the Texas School of the Blind & Visually Impaired meet on Monday afternoons from 3:45-5:00 to row and kayak on Lady Bird Lake. Students from the School have proven to be "quick studies" when it comes to learning rowing technique! Not only do they become proficient rowers, the experience tends to build self-confidence, independence while having fun and increasing athleticism on the water.
Students from the Texas School of the Blind were the first group of rowers who ventured out as an adaptive sport program led by Randy Rosens on Lady Bird Lake a year before the Texas Rowing For All organization was officially formed. Diane McDiarmid & Randy are the visionarys who started adaptive rowing in Austin—all because of their experiences coaching the students at the Texas School of Blind. A league of adaptive athletes would never had the opportunity to row, compete and recreate if it wasn't for the positive experiences TRFA had/have with School of Blind athletes!

"
i want to know what is the "long-duration rating" and what is the process of its. i am interesting in the master control 1000 hours of Jaeger-LeCoultre. but i can't find the worthy information on the web. i wonder if you could send me some reference or give some advice. i want to write email to you but i can't find your email address. my email address is zhangbeidan#gmail.com, i will be very pleasure if you could send me a email, thank you very much!

World Poker Tour on FSN: Bay 101 Shooting Star Season X — Part I
Sunday night on Fox Sports Network is World Poker Tour night as each week a new episode from Season X is aired to the public. This week, Part I of the Bay 101 Shooting Star from the Bay 101 Casino in San Jose, California, aired. The $10,000 tournament, which drew 364 players and created a prize pool of $3,458,000, originally took place from March 5 through 9, 2012, and offered a $5,000 bounty on the "Shooting Star" participants.
This week's broadcast began the same way as all other part ones do — by highlighting the early stages of the tournament. The first thing viewers might have noticed was the extraordinary number of pros in the Day 1a field, most of whom were bounties. They included Kathy Liebert, David "The Dragon" Pham, Vanessa Rousso, Joe Hachem, Faraz Jaka and Phil Hellmuth.
One of the early bounties claimed was Dwyte Pilgrim, who held and hit a set when the flop came down . His opponent, Dung Nguyen, bet 3,200, Pilgrim called, and it was off to the turn, which both players checked. Pilgrim then moved all in on the river, and was shocked when Nguyen called and turned over for a superior full house, the win, and a $5,000 bounty.
A number of other Shooting Stars followed Pilgrim out the door including McLean Karr, Barry Greenstein, Daniel Negreanu, Sam Stein and Joe Tehan, with Club WPT qualifier John Davies collecting the bounty on the latter. Another prized bounty was awarded to Mark Violetti, who eliminated the one and only Poker Brat. "He got me fair and square," Hellmuth said as he signed the trademark T-shirt awarded to those who knock out a Shooting Star.
At the end of Day 1a, Bryce Yockey bagged up 245,300 and finished as chip leader with a nice $10,000 cash bonus. Day 1b saw a whole new set of bounties take their seats, but many would not make it through the night. Mike Sexton, who finished sixth in the Shooting Star the year before, was one casualty, and Todd Brunson, Chris Moorman, Matt Giannetti and the defending champion, Alan Sternberg, all followed him out the door. When players bagged and tagged at the end of Day 1b, Christ Summers finished with the chip lead — 188,200 — and received the $10,000 bonus.
On Day 2, the remaining 149 players took to the felt, and it didn't take long for the Shooting Stars to fall. Christian Harder, Antonio Esfandiari, Marvin Rettenmaier, Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier and Nam Le were a few of the stars who burned out.
On the money bubble, Liebert was all-in preflop with and at risk against the of Men "The Master" Nguyen. The flop was gin for Nguyen, and after the and completed the board, he collected Liebert's bounty and sent her home as the bubble woman. Only 20 players survived Day 2, and Scott Baumstein and his stack of 1.301 million led the way.
After Taylor Von Kriegenbergh (19th - $22,420) and JC Tran (16th - $25,620) busted early on Day 3, 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event winner Jonathan Duhamel became the last Shooting Star left in the field. He was looking to keep the tradition of a bounty making the final table alive, but it was not meant to be as he ran into the of Ubaid Habib. The board ran out and Duhamel was eliminated in 13th place for $25,620.
After the end-of-Day-2 chip leader, Baumstein, hit the rail in eighth place, the televised bubble was in effect. It took 100 hands for it to burst, but it finally did when Amir Khaziri got all in preflop with against the of Moon Kim. Khaziri couldn't improve as the board ran out and he exited in seventh place for $64,000.
Here's how things stacked up at the start of the final table:
2012 WPT Bay 101 Shooting Star Final Table
|Joseph Elpayaa
|908,000 (95 BBs)
|Joe Serock
|952,000 (98 BBs)
|Moon Kim
|2,098,000 (105 BBs)
|Ubaid Habib
|2,274,000 (114 BBs)
|Erik Cajelais
|3,648,000 (182 BBs)
|Andrew Badecker
|1,040,000 (52 BBs)
First Hand: With the blinds at 10,000/20,000 and a 3,000 ante, chip leader Erik Cajelais opened for 40,000 with only to have Joseph Elpayaa three-bet to 105,000 with from the button. The blinds both folded and Cajelais responded by four-betting to 800,000. It proved too much for Elpayaa as he released his hand.
Moon Rises: After winning a decent pot off Cajelais, Kim raised to 58,000 with and was called by the Canadian holding . The flop saw Cajelais call a bet of 80,000, and then he fired out 165,000 when Kim checked the turn. Kim made the call and checked the , opening the door for Cajelais to put out a hefty bet of 325,000. Kim thought for a few moments before making the call and by doing so he took down the 1,316,000 pot and moved into the chip lead.
Learn to Trust Your Instincts: Kim looked down at and made it 75,000 to go. Habib then picked up and called, prompting Joe Serock to call in the big blind with . The flop gave everyone a little something, but all three still checked. The turn saw Serock check, Kim bet 150,000, and Habib make the call. Serock got out of the way and action was heads-up to the river.
Amazingly both players rivered trips, but Habib's ace kicker had him out in front. Kim took his time before betting 200,000, and seemed shocked when Habib min-raised him to 400,000. "Oh wow," Kim said, "All that act and you raise me? Wow, that's sick. I don't think I can lay this down. I'm not raising for sure."
Kim took his time, even informing Habib he had a king, and eventually Elpayaa called for a clock. Habib then urged Kim to get a move on, and then said, "I'm bluffing you."
"You are? Alright, I believe you," Kim said before paying off his opponent.

I've set myself the challenge to release a little video of me playing guitar (either acoustic or electric) for the 25 days of Christmas. Think of it as your musical advent calendar. I've got some playful things in the pipeline.
Here's December 2nd – 'Message in a Bottle' by The Police. I grew up listening to Radio 2 and my parents CD collection. I can't get over how many good songs they wrote together and I remain a fan of Sting. I love the elongated shape the hand makes playing this riff, it took some time getting used to stretching my hand out that way. With this daily shred, I've looped the initial riff and then improvised over the top, trying to incorporate some of the original melody.
If you want to replicate my tone, this is what I used:

First a tall card with layers of paper and die-cuts.
I used paper from Maja Design, Pion Design and dies from Spellbinders and Tim Holtz.
Here I created a fun shaker card with snow behin the window. Paper from Bo Bunny and Lawn Fawn. Stickers from October Afternoon and my images are colored with my Copics.
On my last card for today, yes it will be more Christmas Cards soon :) I used different stickers from October Afteroon. I used 3d foam behind them to get more 3d effect.

The second annual Chili Throwdown (Cook off) and Rail Jam benefitting the Education Foundation for Bend La Pine Schools is this Sunday at the Athletic Club of Bend. Chairperson Cheri Helt says the Foundation helps out hundreds of kids each year participate in after school sports. "We're raising money for all the kids in town that afford to pay for sporting events. Because there is a fee for sporting events for kids in our middle and high school. And as a Foundation, we grant money back to the school system to pay for that. And that's what this event is for. Because in this economy this is a really hard thing for the kids and we want to make sure they can participate in sports." Helt says the chili cook off is one of the most popular events. 20 restaurants will be participating in this years' contest. Not only will there be official judging, the public will have a chance to cast a vote too. Also, a Rail Jam presented by Skjersaa's promises to be a big crowd pleaser. Your $10 tickets buys you unlimited chili and entry to the rail jam. It's this Sunday from 2 to 6 pm.

Golden State Warriors rookie Jordan Bell suffered what initially appeared to be a serious left leg injury on the first possession of Wednesday night's game, coming down hard and awkwardly after trying to contest a driving dunk by Chicago Bulls center Robin Lopez.
It looked like all 6-foot-9 and 225 pounds of Bell came down square on that left leg, with his ankle appearing to invert and bend the wrong way. It became clear very quickly that something was seriously wrong with the first-year forward, who got the start in place of the resting Draymond Green, when he couldn't get back to his feet after hitting the deck.
Jordan Bell still down. Entire team has come off the bench and surrounded him. Trainer grabbing at his lower left shin/ankle area.
— Anthony Slater (@anthonyVslater) January 18, 2018
Bell is being wheeled off the floor in a wheelchair.
— Nick Friedell (@NickFriedell) January 18, 2018
Never good to see the player carted off looking like this. You have to imagine it's some sort of tibia issue, perhaps a fracture pic.twitter.com/WKQN1j1hjd

Oddly, Bell is now the second player in the last three nights to need a wheelchair to get off the floor at United Center. Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson also suffered a nasty left ankle injury against the Bulls on Monday night, after getting tangled up with Lopez on a drive to the basket.
Things looked dire for Johnson in the immediate aftermath of his descent, too; luckily, X-rays came back negative, and his return's now expected to come in a matter of days, not week. The silver lining in Chicago on Wednesday is that Bell's story started the same way:
Jordan Bell update: Sprained left ankle, will not return. X-rays negative, MRI tomorrow.
— Warriors PR (@WarriorsPR) January 18, 2018
The Warriors famously paid the Bulls $3.5 million for the rights to the No. 38 pick in the 2017 NBA draft back in June, specifically targeting Bell — a big, athletic power forward and small-ball five who won Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year honors at Oregon last year — as a player who might prove to be something of a Draymond starter kit when plugged into Golden State's uptempo offensive attack and aggressive, switch-friendly defensive scheme. Bell quickly earned a place in Steve Kerr's rotation, and has made an impact off the bench and as a spot starter in the Dubs' frontcourt, averaging 5.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 blocks in 14.8 minutes per game over 37 appearances.
"I don't really look at numbers, though. I look at the effort and the production I put in," Bell recently told the Bay Area News Group. "It keeps me motivated to try to be the best I can be, and not to try to live up to anybody's expectations. I try to exceed my own."
He's done an excellent job of that to this point in his rookie season. Here's hoping the MRI results offer reason for optimism that he'll be able to get back to doing so in the near future.

Owning a home is probably one of the most stressful things you could ever do to yourself. All the maintenance and up keep that are required, and that is just for the landscaping. There are so many things that can go wrong with a house, and the expenses to fix them can add up really quick. Well unfortunately for a family in Australia, they were enduring some of the more frustrating construction you can do on a house. The family had to have some foundation work done, and decided to document the experience. It started out as a normal home improvement project. It took on a whole new feeling after what they found right beneath their backyard.

Smucker Statement on President Trump's Address to Congress
Washington, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Lloyd Smucker (PA-16) released the following statement on President Trump's address to Congress:
"We're dreaming big again. Tonight, President Trump laid out a bold agenda that sets clear priorities: the safety of the American people and economic opportunity for everyone.
"I was glad to hear President Trump commit to working to ensure all children have access to quality education. As the former chairman of the Committee on Education in the Pennsylvania State Senate, I am keenly aware that a good education and a well-trained workforce are vital to our economy, and both are means by which the American Dream can be accessible to all.
"This Congress and administration have already taken steps to relieve hardworking Americans of regulatory burdens that stifle job creation and hinder economic growth, but a lot more work needs to be done. President Trump made it clear he wants to build upon what we have already achieved. I will continue to look for ways we can help small businesses expand and hire more well-trained workers.
"I look forward to working with this administration and my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to advance an agenda that will improve the lives of the people I am here to represent."

San Dimas Criminal Defense Attorneys
Being charged with a criminal offense in the State of California is a serious matter that deserves competent and experienced legal counsel. Schwartzberg | Luther are criminal & DUI defense lawyers serving San Dimas, California. Criminal convictions can remain on your criminal record for years and can impact your ability to obtain employment or pursue higher education. Unfortunately, some individuals who are convicted of crimes are not able to escape the terrible cycle of poverty and desperation to which a criminal conviction can lead. This can result in additional legal trouble for the defendant.
If you are charged with a crime in San Dimas, expect that the prosecutor handling your case will attempt to pressure you into accepting a plea agreement. Before you do so, speak with an experienced and knowledgeable criminal defense lawyer from Schwartzberg | Luther, APC. We will review the facts of your case and help you make the best decisions and obtain the most favorable outcome possible in your case.
Knowledgeable Help Resolving a Variety of Criminal Offenses
Crimes in California may be classified as either infractions, misdemeanors, or felonies. Infractions are the least severe crime and are usually punished by a fine only. Traffic offenses and some status offenses are considered infractions. Misdemeanors are the "mid-range" offenses in terms of severity: while they are not as serious as felony charges, they can result in a convicted individual being sentenced to serve time in a jail or other facility as well as being ordered to pay a fine. Felonies are the most serious charges. A felony conviction will usually result in lengthy periods of incarceration and/or years of formal supervision by probation personnel.
DUI Defense in San Dimas
Driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs is a crime that is prosecuted aggressively in California and elsewhere in the United States. The penalties for even a first offense of DUI in California can be harsh: mandatory periods of incarceration, hundreds of dollars in fines, restrictions on your driving privileges, and costs and fees associated with probation are just a few of the consequences of a DUI conviction. If you obtain multiple DUI convictions within a ten-year period, these penalties can be enhanced even further. The San Dimas DUI defense lawyers of Schwartzberg | Luther have handled numerous DUI cases and have the experience to assist you and your family.
Aside from fines and incarceration, a criminal conviction can have other negative collateral consequences as well. These may include:
- Suspension or revocation of your driver's license or professional license;
- Installation of ignition interlock devices in your vehicles and/or electronic monitoring of your movements;
- Random drug and alcohol testing;
- Drug or alcohol treatment at your own expense;
- Immigration consequences that can include your removal from the United States.
Do not risk your life and freedom by representing yourself or attempting to strike a deal with the prosecutor: have an experienced and aggressive criminal defense lawyer at your side throughout your case. At Schwartzberg | Luther, APC, our criminal defense team will work with you from the moment you retain our services through your trial and beyond (if necessary) to help you achieve the results you need to be able to move on with your life as quickly and effortlessly as possible.
Do not delay: Contact Schwartzberg | Luther, APC today by calling (909) 457-4270 to learn more about how we can make a difference for you.

A sweet and charming pair, Davinia and David had many ups and downs before David proposed in the most beautiful way. Celebrating their happy ever after Davinia and David gathered all those they loved for a romantic pretty in pink wedding at Dormquinna Manor all captured effortlessly by the lovely Tara Aherne. Tissues at the ready...
Like many of the best things in life, how Davinia and David met is simple and sweet - they spotted each other in a bar, got talking and have been together ever since.
Later in their relationship Davinia and David moved in together when unfortunately Davinia's dad fell ill. She explains..."I lost my father, whom I adored, in 2013. Dad had been sick for a little while. He stayed with David and I as he underwent chemo here in Dublin. David and Dad grew very close in that period, it was really special for me to see their relationship develop. Sadly, Dad passed away in the September. On his birthday which would have been in the following May, I had always planned to climb a mountain which was in my Dad's home place in Kerry. The spot is very special as I know it's a place my father loved and It's also the place where I feel closest to him. David and I arrived at the foot of the mountain and perched by a rock called the Sagart Rock, it's pretty well-known in Annascaul as it's where mass used to be said in the penal times. My father's uncle wrote a poem about the rock which my father had learnt and often recited. Before Dad passed away I recorded him reciting the poem. On that day, and in that place, I thought where more appropriate to play it then right there by the rock that had provided the inspiration."
Davinia continues..."Obviously a lot of tears were shed as I listened to my absent father's gentle, caring voice which I missed so so much. As the recording drew to a close, I noticed that David was crying too, right then he dropped to one knee, shuffled around in his pocket and pulled out the most amazing engagement ring. He proceeded to tell me that he had actually talked to my Dad about the proposal and had asked for his permission to marry me. You have no idea how much that meant to me!"
Love Davinia's bridesmaid's romantic skirts and tops, and that flower girl is just too cute...
Having gone through a series of ups and downs, Davinia and David wanted to ensure their wedding day was totally relaxed and simply a happy day with the ones they love. Davinia told us..."We wanted it to be personal, intimate and relaxed. We also wanted to make sure we took it as an opportunity to thank our families and friends who have been there for us through the sad and happy times over the years."
As a reminder of her dad, the girls at Sharon Hoey embroidered Davinia's Dad's initials on to the band of her beautiful column wedding dress. Such a simple and thoughtful idea!
A huge congrats to you both and thanks so much for sharing your story with us all!
A big thank you also goes to Tara Aherne for sharing her work with us - as Davinia and David testified..."With the weather against her, Tara still managed to produce a stunning portfolio of photographs for us and our families to enjoy. For my husband and I, the photos are like our own little wedding storyboard, they are all perfectly timed and sequenced to capture the real essence of the day and the vibe throughout."

Student Reviews
See What our students says about our School.
I really enjoyed my first year of guitar lessons for a couple reasons. First the lessons were very informative and Doug helped me with my band music and other solo pieces that I was struggling with. I really recommend Belmont Music School!
Phillip A. - Somerville, MA
Doug is amazing at giving us one on one time to understand everything they had taught. I'm excited to see this school grow and am already recommending it to friends.
Martin S. - Everett, MA
They are very passionate about the craft – and are extremely knowledgeable as well as experienced. But they also are very good at articulating the lessons and passing along that wisdom so we can learn.
Christian M. - Medford, MA
Belmont Music it's a great school and have great teachers and Doug was brilliant. Some schools care only about fancy gear in the classroom and forget about the essential: the teachers!

My two favourite bits of Church music are like book-ends for Lent. The choir sang the Allegri Miserere on Ash Wednesday, and it was as spine-tingling as ever (you can hear it on the St Clement's site). And on Easter Day, at the end of the High Mass, they will sing Mascagni's Regina Caeli. I have never yet managed to stay dry-eyed for this: the soaring "O Signore"s and the mounting tension of the organ are the most wonderful launch of the Easter Season I have ever heard. If you can't wait till Easter Day to hear it, it is on our site for last Easter Day.
St Clement's is truly blessed with our Choir and Organists.

You can hear the choir sing the Allegri Misrere on the S. Clement's Facebook page:

[Ed. note: This is the 19th in a series of essays by the @U2 staff about U2-related visuals and videos. Some essays may be informational and educational, while others may be more personal.]
Not all U2 videos have a clear storyline that takes the viewer on a journey, a specific narrative that visualizes the meaning of the song. Some do, however, and for me "Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of" is one of the most powerful. Although it is a pretty literal representation of what the song is about, it is done in such a way that it doesn't come across as trivial.
At the start of the video, we see Bono being mercilessly thrown out of a van on a cold night. As he is lying there on the ground, his friends, the other members of U2, run after the van and try to get to him, but are held back by a road they need to cross on foot. This repeats itself during the video. No matter how hard they try, they can't manage to get out of their situation. Bono keeps tumbling to the ground, unable to stand up and the others can't cross the street; every time they're half way, they're transported back to where they started.
This video has a powerful presence and message. The atmosphere is quite bleak, using mostly dark, brownish colors and a sharp contrast between light and dark. When Bono is on the ground the first time, his shadow is pitch black while the light around him is quite bright, but diffuse. When we see Edge standing in the middle of the road, looking at Bono, the lighting source is behind him, which gives the scene a bit of an unreal feeling: he's standing there like a beacon of light, but at the same time it feels as if it can't be true that someone might actually be willing to help.
Something that is executed quite well in the video is the timing of the song with the events in the video. Especially around the 1:30 minute mark, Bono's fall coincides with the snare drum in such a way that it always provokes a response of "ouch" in my mind, as if it is Bono's body that causes that noise. The same thing happens at 3:33 when he is thrown out for the last time and really looks like he's in pain. At last, he manages to get up, but then crashes to the ground again. Poor Bono.
Bono talks about the song in U2 By U2, where he explains that it was originally written about Michael Hutchence. "It is like somebody's in a stupor and you're trying to wake them up, the cops are coming and they're sitting at the wheel and you're trying to get them out of the car 'cause they're gonna crash it. Because I just knew that if Michael had hung on an extra half an hour it would have been OK. That's the thing. When you're in that moment you don't believe you can get out of it. You think this blackness that surrounds you will never pass. But it does pass."
I'm glad I haven't personally been in such bad shape. Still, I think things don't have to be pitch black for the song to be a comfort. After all, we've all been there: problems, bad things that leave you feeling like there is no way out -- or at least, no way that you can think of. It's like the band members that are desperately trying to cross that road, but everywhere they look there are cars that will run them over if they go any further. It leaves them paralyzed: Do I go forward, or should I turn back? If I go forward this way, will any of those cars hit me? On the other hand, I can't stay here forever....
Just like them, you're unsure what to do. And then, when you finally make a decision and assemble enough courage to take a step forward, it turns out it didn't help at all and you're back where you started.
Or maybe your situation is more like Bono's: You know how you're supposed to get out -- just get up and go -- but no matter how hard you try, life keeps throwing you off balance, so you end up back at square one. To make things worse, people don't even seem to notice you're in trouble, they just pretend that you're not there, even though they have to step over you so as not to hit you. What's the point? You might as well not try to get out anymore and just remain in this situation indefinitely.
At these moments, it's friendship and love that we all need. Someone to show you the way to maneuver out of a situation where you seem to be threatened from all sides. Perhaps your own thoughts have been going around in circles, so you just hadn't thought of that one possibility. Someone who knows you, who recognizes how you think and what you don't see, can have an objective view that shows you what you're missing. Perhaps you lack the strength to get up on your own two feet, but if someone helped you, you'd be able to stand up and carry your own weight. You'd be able to face whatever is bothering you and stand up to it, take action and solve your problems.
I've had situations like these where I needed that little push, those wise words, the encouragement to get out of a bad situation. And I hope I myself have also given this to others as well. That's why I think the end of the video is perfect. Just those intertwined hands, a strong hand that lifts the other up and supports them, so they can find their own feet and get out of their predicament.

The Greater Baltimore Swim Association is a year-round, competitive age group USA Swimming team in Catonsville, MD. Established in 1990 by Edward R. "Ted" Bresnahan, the club was founded on the premise of flexibility, encouragement and excellence in instruction. Head coach Patrick Underwood adheres to these principles as GBSA enters its 28th year.
Our Mission:
- To create a positive environment in which potential can be brought to realization.
- To focus on improvement through hard work, technique, attention to detail, and encouragement by all members of the organization.
- To breed success through mutual respect, fostering desire, mental preparation, and interpersonal cooperation.
We offer flexibility to allow the very busy youth of today to swim when they can around their other activities, giving them the opportunity to stay with the sport until the time comes for them to choose a sport full time.
We offer excellence in instruction so that when these athletes do choose a sport, no matter what sport, they will have gained from GBSA the ability and understanding to work towards the highest goals through excellence in basic technique, focus and dedication. We encourage these athletes to constantly work towards better mechanics, emotional and mental focus, and, of course, increased dedication to swimming. We at GBSA feel that these are also valuable lessons that will aid these young people in all endeavors throughout their lives.
Our goals as a club have given many athletes great success as GBSA boasts Olympic Trials Qualifiers, Senior National Qualifiers and Finalists, NCAA Division I National Qualifiers and Finalists, and Division III National Qualifiers, Finalists and Champions. There have been several Junior National/Regional Sectional Qualifiers as well as Maryland State All-Star Finalists and Champions along with numerous National Top Sixteen swimmers. GBSA feels strongly about every member of its organization and is driven to create the environment in which these athletes can succeed and reach any level they wish. As we we continue to grow and become more competitive within our ranks we look forward to more success on every level of the sport.

That's it. I didn't want to overreact to the Celtics loss (it wasn't even their first horrific loss to Boston this year), but the highlights of the Philadelphia game on SportsCenter are the last straw: the Nets' season is dead to me. Baseball got here just in time.
I still don't really get it: they had all of their best players back and they improved the bench, yet they stunk right out of the gate, even before all the injuries. I know they can still make the playoffs — but really, how far are they going to get? They haven't looked like a contending team for more than four games in a row all season, and I'm probably being generous. Gah.
On the plus side, this sort of losing is, for a Nets fan, kind of like finding familiar childhood toys, or old photos, for the first time in years. It's suffused in nostalgia. Yes, this is more like the team I fell in love with in the 90s — not those impostors of the last few years, with their fancy "playoff victories".
Having lost all hope, though, there are still a number of reasons to watch the Nets limp to the finish line this year:
First, Vince Carter, when he's on, is still one of the most exciting players I've ever seen. Unfortunately that's only every fourth game or so these days, but still, it's awesome to behold — and this is probably his last season in the Swamp. Seriously, if you have a few hours to kill, search YouTube for Vince Carter; I pretty lost all of last Thursday doing this.
Second, though I hope it's not Kidd's last year too, that's very possible, and when you have one of the ten best (for my money) point guards in NBA history on your team, you should take the time to appreciate it. He got his tenth triple double of the season in the loss.
Third, Marcus Williams is developing almost by the week. No, he's no Jason Kidd, but then who is? He still makes too many mistakes, in almost every game, but he also has quick stretches of brilliance that have me convinced he'll be very good one day.
Fourth, Mikki Moore. Come on, you know you love him. He's having a career year, I don't think the idea of playing with anything less that flat-out, near-psychotic intensity has ever so much as occurred to him, and he collects snakes.
I'm assuming anyone who's still reading this entry is a Nets fan, so what do you think? What went wrong this year, besides the injuries, and what do you think the team should do about Carter and Kidd? Do you want Lawrence Frank back? How much do you love saying "Boki"?

Author of DHS border-agent report lied to Congress
Senate Democrats give Feinstein OK to hold hearing on Ramos-Compean
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.
A heavily redacted Department of Homeland Security report on the prosecutions of Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean was issued by Assistant Inspector General Elizabeth M. Redman, one of four investigators called upon to resign for lying to Congress.
The 77-page report – which Redman issued with her signature in November – was released to the public yesterday on the heels of DHS Inspector General Robert Skinner's admission at a hearing that his deputies falsely told lawmakers the agency had documentary proof the border agents were rogue cops "out to shoot Mexicans."
Yesterday, Culberson called for Redman and the three other officials to resign.
Meanwhile, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., has received permission from Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., to hold a hearing on the case.
"I strongly believe that the sentences in this case are too extreme, given the criminal nature of the defendant and his possession of large quantities of drugs," Feinstein said in a statement. "These men were given sentences that some individuals who are convicted of murder wouldn't receive."
Also on Capitol Hill yesterday, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., issued a stern warning to President Bush following the report that Ramos was beaten by prison inmates Saturday: "I tell you, Mr. President, if these men – especially after this assault – are murdered in prison, if one of them lose their lives, there's going to be some sort of impeachment talk in Capitol Hill."
The DHS investigator's report was released yesterday in response to a Freedom of Information Act request by Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas. As WND reported, Poe had become increasingly frustrated with DHS, accusing the agency of stonewalling the handover to Congress of investigative reports promised more than four months ago.
The controversy dates back to a Sept. 26 meeting Redman and three other DHS investigators had with Poe, Culberson and two other Republican members of the Texas delegation, Reps. Michael McCaul and Kenny Merchant.
Skinner testified under oath Tuesday before the Subcommittee on Homeland Security of the House Appropriations Committee his investigators "misrepresented" to the Texas delegation that Ramos and Compean said they wanted "to shoot some Mexicans" the day of Feb. 17, 2005, incident in which a drug smuggler escaped across the border after a confrontation with the agents.
In a telephone interview today, WND asked Poe if he agreed that Redman should resign.
"There has to be some kind of consequence for misleading members of Congress in this investigation," he replied. "This was not a statement that the pickup was green when it turned out to be blue."
Poe emphasized the "misleading information went to the crux of the government's case that there was some kind of a so-called 'conspiracy' among these two Border Patrol agents to go out that day and shoot some foreign nationals."
"That was a total fabrication," he said.
Poe said that if the Justice Department does not look into the DHS misrepresentations, then "Congress will just have to weigh in on its options."
Poe contended the "whole government case against Ramos and Compean was based on the statements of a drug dealer who was given back-room deals with the federal government."
A former prosecutor and judge, Poe added: "Unfortunately I have found in my experience that when somebody starts making deals with criminal witnesses, you tend to get the testimony you wanted to hear."
Poe expressed concern the government has run an intentionally prejudicial case against the former Border Patrol agents.
"Just based on the redacted report we got yesterday from DHS, the Department of Homeland Security seems to pick and choose what evidence it wants to believe out of the incident," he said.
Poe asked why the DHS did not, before Skinner's testimony under oath, inform Congress its investigators, including Redman, had insisted the reports contain evidence Ramos and Compean were rogue agents.
"I'm glad the inspector general was candid with members of Congress," Poe told WND. "Still, it would have been appropriate months ago if someone had come forward with the truth about the incident rather than having to wait until somebody got placed under oath and was forced to testify."
DHS released the report yesterday as a substantiation of the agents' prosecution, but the congressmen who have challenged the administration insist otherwise.
Tara Setmayer, a spokeswoman for Rohrabacher, told the AP the report "has just emboldened our position because there is nothing in there that indicates these agents were not justified in shooting this individual."
"This finally sheds some light on what these agents were thinking," she said, pointing to a written statement by Compean in which she said reflects he "clearly believed the drug smuggler had a weapon and feared for his life."

No Match for argument: php54w-xml
Nothing to do
Tried from the link but hot of help : http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2 … -hat-rhel/
That link talks about installing it on CentOS 5 or 6, but you seem to be on 4... So, it may not work on a distro that old... Or, rather, you may have to jump through a lot more hoops to get it working, anyway... Like maybe downloading the PHP source and compiling it yourself... Maybe some third-party repo (epel, rpmforge, etc.) has ready to go packages built for CentOS 4, but I don't know...
Thank you Rob Seace.
1. I've Centos 4 Release, can i upgrade to php 5.4.17 without changing my centos from current release
2. Anyone knows Remi(http://rpms.famillecollet.com/)? i 'm guessing its repository for latest rpms in older releases(like centos4), please correct
3. Can i Erase below already installed and install the new rpm's.
Last edited by santoshkumar (2013-08-21 05:11 AM)
I don't have any idea if you can find readymade packages for the newer PHP for CentOS 4 or not... You'll just have to go looking through the repos yourself... I can see that Remi repo doesn't have it available at least... The newest PHP version they have for RHEL 4 (ie: CentOS 4) is 5.3.10... Neither rpmforge nor epel seem to have newer versions of base PHP available for CentOS 4 at all... I checked a couple others too, and still don't see it anywhere... So, I don't know where you can find it, if anywhere...

The Family Circle Cup is the largest women's only tennis tournament in the world, and this year's event will be held on April 4-12 in Charleston, SC on Daniel Island. Blue Lizard is proud to be a sponsor for the first time at the Family Circle Cup's 43rd annual tournament
As one of the hottest tickets in professional sports, the Family Circle Cup features 13 matches throughout the two-week tournament. The tournament receives four days of live broadcast domestically on ESPN2, and is viewed internationally in more than 143 countries, featuring more than 200 hours of live and delayed global broadcast time, reaching nine million+ viewers worldwide.
The world-class player field forming for the Family Circle Cup on Daniel Island is headed up by eight of the top 20 players in the world. Five additional players will join the field via Wild Card entry. The Family Circle Cup's 56-player draw is made up of 43 direct entries into the tournament, five wild cards and eight qualifiers.
At the top of the Family Circle Cup player field is Ekaterina Makarova. This year will mark her first time playing Charleston in five years. Current Family Circle Cup champion Andrea Petkvoic had a major comeback during the 2013-2014 season and will be again vying for another Family Circle Cup win.
Lucie Safarova will play Charleston for her fifth time in 2015. Safarova reached an additional four quarterfinals following the 2014 Family Circle Cup, as well as the semifinals at Wimbledon and Moscow. Most recently, she won the title in Doha in February 2015. Rounding out the top-four in Charleston's player field is Sara Errani. This year's tournament will be her third time playing the Family Circle Cup.
