Next up: Michigan State to the Big East.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:11 AM ^
I think that would be the only way that conference could take another step down.
November 28th, 2012 at 8:22 AM ^
I feel like I need carnival music everytime I read about a school going to another conference.
November 28th, 2012 at 10:31 AM ^
...of music more like Yakety Sax, but either one works.
November 29th, 2012 at 2:01 PM ^
But if you could have found some plate spinning TO the sabre dance, I would have been really impressed.
November 28th, 2012 at 8:23 AM ^
Looking pretty solid.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:36 AM ^
They still have West Virg- no wait, um Rutg- oh, no... hmmm, Pittsb- shoot... Well they've got Boise State, Tulane, and Navy
November 28th, 2012 at 8:27 AM ^
It's a sitting duck. The big east is weak. It's feeble. I think it's time to put the hurt on the big east.

Big East is game to you?!

I love that episode.

UConn to B1G next? The Big East in on life support. I think Cincinnati and UConn would be great gets.
November 28th, 2012 at 8:44 AM ^
It's all about brand(on)ing. UConn's market is tiny. We are already in Ohio. If it wasn't about expanding the footprint, Pittsburgh would have been an ideal addition.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:56 AM ^
Its interesting you bring up Pittsburgh. I wonder if they had waited before making the decision to join the ACC whether they would have been added to the B1G this time around. They really are a perfect match geographically and athletically. Academically too (at least moreso than Nebraska). I'm bummed it didn't shake out that way - the PSU-Pitt rivalry could be renewed and new cross-border ones like Ohio-Pitt could begin.
November 28th, 2012 at 11:16 AM ^
would have been a great addition:
-academically they are right there with ohio, in front of purdue, minnesota, msu, indiana, etc
-good grad programs too. UPMC is internationally recognized.
-pitt is a great city and would have been a fun road trip. Only 4 hours from ann arbor.
The problem is they cant even get on local tv – they don't bring eyes. No one cares about pitt– it's a professional sports town. also, I've never been to Rutgers, but pitt would immediately come in as the worst stadium in the big ten (professional stadium, tailgate under a highway).
November 28th, 2012 at 11:38 AM ^
Agreed. The stadium situation absolutely sucks. I was at the last game in the old Pitt Stadium (where the newer basketball arena now sits) and it was a fun place. Kind of like a mini Big House but right in the middle of campus and Oakland. Too bad they couldn't keep it but they made a deal with the Steelers when they built the new Heinz Field and new practice facility on the South Side. Real bummer for the students who now have to take a bus to games. But the Pitt-WVU game at Heinz Field was a fun atmosphere (if you like a bunch of WVU fans geared out in camoflauge and bright orange hunting jackets yelling in your ears behind you).
Old Pitt Stadium:
November 28th, 2012 at 4:34 PM ^
I can't stand watching a CFB game that is played in a pro stadium (obviously the exception is M, but as long as they win, I don't care where they play). Pitt games are hard to watch on TV simply because Heinz Field is so hideous. College teams belong in college stadiums. College stadiums always have more character and just give you the college feel. This is also why I can't stand watching the Hurricanes play at home. Their stadium is so ugly and their games don't feel like college games.
November 28th, 2012 at 1:37 PM ^
Your last paragraph is flat out wrong.
Pitt has never had any issues with being aired on local TV. They would have absolutely brought eyes to the B10 market had Penn State not already done so (which is the ONLY reason they will never be invited).
People in Pittsburgh care about the Pitt teams--more so basketball than football--but as mentioned earlier, the fact that the football games are played at Heinz and the team is annually mediocre isn't much of an incentive for fans to go watch them live.
Basketball on the other hand is huge. Pittsburgh doesn't have an NBA team which means Pitt is the only basketball team people follow. Tickets at the Pete aren't easy to come by.
Yes, Pittsburgh is a professional sports city first, but that doesn't mean there's a loss of interest in the college teams. They would have been an excellent get for the B10 if the invitation qualifications didn't mandate opening a new TV market. Holding off on the ACC offer would have done nothing to increase their chances of getting in.
November 28th, 2012 at 1:54 PM ^
I understand your point but I think the initial point is definitely valid. The Steelers rein supreme in Pittsburgh. Plus, Pitt football doesn't really have a die-hard following like its basketball team does. Nevertheless, I have heard what you hint at - that Paterno was instrumental at making sure Pitt was not invited to join two years ago. Even more sad for Pitt fans given what transpired at PSU thereafter . . .
November 28th, 2012 at 7:11 PM ^
Absolutely. Paterno basically blacklisted Pitt from anything Penn State was involved in strictly out of spite. Bitter old man indeed.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:01 AM ^
What would UConn and Cincinati bring to the B10? Neither UConn nor Cinci bring any new markets to the table for the BTN. Neither are AAU schools (a seamingly important factor) and don't bring much to the table athletically.
The only things UConn has going for it is that it's a flagship school (in a small market) and a recent (last 15 years) basketball power. Now that Calhoun is gone, I think they will recede in basketball relevence history.
Cinci is a large research based school, but again, not an AAU school. They bring very little to the table as far as sports go and, with OSU, the BTN already has the Cinci market.
A new school needs to bring expanding markets in new areas (Mid Atlantic or South) or tremendous athletic prestige (ND). With the exception of ND, the school must be a current member of the AAU. Since ND is a no go, that leaves UVA, UNC, Duke, GTU, Kansas, Pitt, amd Mizzou. Since Kansas leased it's rights to the Big12, Mizzou isn't leaving the SEC, and Pitt is already in the BTN footprint, that leaves UVA, UNC, GTU, and Duke. UVA and UNC would be home runs, but UVA and GTU would be pretty good as well.
UConn and Cinci would be a 3 pitch strike out looking.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:07 AM ^
What about VT? I thought that UVa was tied to VT and that UNC was tied to NC State (and to a lesser extent Duke, granted there could be protected OOC games). Wouldn't that pose a problem of trying to bring in the flagship University of two schools? I'd think that state legislators from either VA or NC would pretty much require that UVa or UNC pull along their siblings to make sure they're not lost in the college football musical chairs (less likely for VT, more likely for NC State).
November 28th, 2012 at 9:19 AM ^
VT and UVA aren't attached at the hip, it's more that the state wants both schools to be in stable, successful (i.e., BCS) conferences. If the ACC starts to crumble, VT would likely be the first choice for the SEC to expand to 16 with. The NC schools would be tougher to move around, as I think the B1G and SEC would fight over UNC with Duke as the consolation prize. I can't see either conference wanting NC State (or wanting to go beyond 16 teams), so the only way UNC/Duke go anywhere is total dissolution of the ACC.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:35 AM ^
The only way UVA and TV are together is that they both need a landing spot. If the rumors are correct, the SEC wants to get into the Va and NC markets for their new SEC network. My impression is that UVA will not go to a conference like the SEC due to academics. VT, on the otherhand, looks to be the target of the SEC. If UVA went to the B10, that would leave each with a secure landing place.
UNC/NCST are trickier, but the same principle applies. They have the same Board of Trustees/Regents, so each needs a safe landing place as well. Those fans want to go to the SEC, but my guess is that the big cademic and athletic donors will have their say. The problem is where will NCST go. Their non-AAU status likely means they don't have a spot in the B10. Some think that the B12 might be a spot. I don't think Duke will prevent UNC from joining a power conference. UNC will try to take Duke with them but, in the end, they a spot if the ACC is truly dying as a footbal conference.
It's my useless opinion that UNC will go only if needed. They are not short money and love thier little ACC fiefdom (much like Texas and the B12). They will stay until the end with Duke until they have to leave. They will always be welcome in a power conference. That's why I believe it's UVA and GTU to the B10 as #15 and #16.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:48 AM ^
as the two best gets for the B1G. Strong geographic contiguity, extending across the Mid-Atlantic, two very strong schools academically, powering the bball thing and women's programs much more fully. Politics (no polo) also comes into play, with state legislatures that would be more sympathetic to the B1G than, say, Missouri's was.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:28 AM ^
People keep forgetting that the Big Ten is not just an athletic conference. It's also an academic organization composed entirely—with the exception of Nebraska—of members of the Association of American Universities, a consortium of leading research universities. And Nebraska was a member of the AAU from 1909 until 2011, when it was booted out of the AAU over its assessment of Nebraska's credentials. The University of Nebraska's research and academic medical center is in Omaha, and the fact that it's not on-campus in Lincoln led the AAU to exclude it from its evaluation criteria. The AAU also disregarded Nebraska's USDA-funded agricultural research in its metrics.
Notre Dame has received sporadic solicitation from the Big Ten despite its non-membership in the AAU because of its unique prominence as a midwestern program and its undeniable quality as an undergraduate education institution. Supposedly, if ND had accepted the invitation, it would have resulted in a substantial augmentation of its research activities.
While I believe that the ultimate goal of the Big Ten is to become a 16-member conference, the AAU-membership standard limits the number of institutions that are eligible, which is why Cincinnati and UConn have no chance at being invited, completely aside from their athletic merit. The AAU membership standard is why I think that Pitt is a logical addition to the conference, regardless of the fact that it doesn't expand the footprint and is slated to join the ACC in 2013. The problem with adding other schools like UVA and UNC is that the legislatures in Virginia and North Carolina are going to be extremely resistant to seeing those schools peeled off from their pairings with VaTech and NC State, and those latter two are not AAU members. I still think that Missouri is also a logical candidate to the west, since it's not hampered by any historic ties to another in-state school. The obvious problem is its new membership in the SEC; personally, I think Mizzou's leadership blew it in not waiting for the Big Ten, which is a conference that Missouri was far more interested in joining for academic reasons.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:37 AM ^
As long as VT and NCST have landing spots, they will move if need be.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:47 AM ^
There isn't some inexorable gravitational command to reach 16 teams. Every add needs to be revenue positive, as well as meeting the Big Ten's geographical and academic standards.
As you note, UConn and Cincinnati fail on academic grounds. Pitt fails on revenue grounds: it doesn't add much, given that the Big Ten already has Pennsylvania's major football school. (Even with crippling sanctions, Penn State had a better football season this year than Pitt, as it practically always does.)
You are right that UVA and UNC will have a lot of trouble splitting up from their in-state sister schools, even assuming they'd want the Big Ten (and that the Big Ten would want them) if that issue evaporated. But I don't think Missouri had any choice. No one passes up the chance to join the SEC. Sure, they coveted a Big Ten invite, but when Kate Upton has the hots for you, you don't hold out for Jennifer Aniston.
November 28th, 2012 at 10:39 AM ^
It wasn't even 10 years ago that VT was in the Big East, separate from UVA. As long as VT is in a good situation, than it'll be fine. The state legislature was resistant to VT being on what was then thought of as being a sinking ship, the Big East. And, at that time, VT was still on a positive trajectory as far as name recognition goes with Vick having just been there and doing well in the NFL and good post-Vick Beamer years. The ACC will stick around in some form and be alright, and if it's not than VT could go to the SEC or Big 12. They have good enough athletics, academics, and media market importance to land in a good situation.
November 28th, 2012 at 4:07 PM ^
There isn't some inexorable gravitational command to reach 16 teams.
+1'd for that alone. 16 teams is thoroughly, 100%, an artificial construction of message board denizens. Many UVA fans are talking about how UVA should throw itself at the B1G's door right now before the bus leaves. To which I say: let's say UVA and UNC found themselves in a severely depleted, Big-East-ified ACC, and wanted to go to the B1G. But the B1G already has 16 teams. Does anyone truly believe the presidents in the B1G would say, gee, I know those are two of the best schools in the country and we'd love to increase our collaboration with them, but we already have 16 teams so we can't?
November 28th, 2012 at 9:50 AM ^
was strongly resistant to going to the B1G, liked the SEC--for political reasons--better.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:59 AM ^
Read from where? The Mizzou fan message boards? My guess is the fans wanted the SEC while the administration wanted the Bi10. I could be wrong, but I think that's what took so long for Mizzou to join the SEC, they were waiting on the B10.
November 28th, 2012 at 11:03 AM ^
Missouri had wanted the B1G, but we weren't interested. This story was pretty commonly known:
November 28th, 2012 at 11:06 AM ^
I am aware that there was strong desire of the U admin to come to us. They could ultimately prevail. I probably read it at sportsline, but it was asserted as fact--namely, that there was strong antagonism among state legislators.
November 28th, 2012 at 12:21 PM ^
It's only a guess, but I would think that the Big Ten Network is integrated into the basic TV packages for much of Missouri's cable network system, and that good old Mizzou really added little to the revenue stream.
November 28th, 2012 at 12:48 PM ^
I just checked on Columbia, which is centrally located and home to Mizzou, and the BTN is available on DISH, DirectTV, and one of the other local providers. That would indicate your guess is correct.
November 28th, 2012 at 1:29 PM ^
It goes beyond the question of being available, but whether Big Ten Network programming is included within "basic" service or something akin to that where the B1G is receiving a part of each month's cable payment from all or almost all of the cable/satellite provider's customers. If I remember right, that was the big sticking point when the B1G went live and various networks were slow to provide coverage. Guessing again, I would think that it is included.
I would also have to believe that while available, Big Ten Network programming is not part of the basic package in much of the DC-Baltimore Metro area, nor is it in NJ and NYC, which is why Maryland and Rutgers are now Midwestern schools.
November 28th, 2012 at 3:29 PM ^
DirecTV has the same channels for every market in the united states - it's satellite TV...
November 29th, 2012 at 7:06 AM ^
You are only talking about bandwidth. How those channels are packaged is very different and has regional differences. You need to look no further than how DirecTV deals with local programming which has major regional differnces.
November 28th, 2012 at 8:29 AM ^
This is not your father's college football anymore. Too bad.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:05 AM ^
Louisville went from C-USA in 2004/5 to ACC in 2014(?). That is an incredible leap in a short time period.
I do wonder how Kentucky (Louisville in particular) is in any way associated with the Atlantic Coast?
November 28th, 2012 at 9:09 AM ^
Kentucky is associated with the Atlantic Coast in the same way that the Big Ten is associated with 14 teams.
November 28th, 2012 at 9:40 AM ^
The Big East picks up Boise State, SDSU, Houston, and SMU... and you've got a problem with Louisville going to the ACC because it's not near the coast?

Baltimore Sun: Keys' Joseph has baseball on the brain
Frederick Keys catcher Caleb Joseph occasionally lingers after games, assists the clubhouse attendant, orders some pizza and then crashes at the stadium. Talk about eating and sleeping baseball.
"It's been about 30 percent of nights in the clubhouse at Frederick that I have spent the night on the couch," said Joseph, a 23-year-old right-handed hitter. "I didn't want to leave. You never know when your last day is going to be."
A 2008 seventh-rounder out of Lipscomb (Tenn.) University, Joseph is in no danger of being sent home. Despite skipping a level from Short-A Aberdeen in 2008 to High-A Frederick, Joseph is currently the Carolina League's leading hitter, batting .330 (70-for-212) with six homers and 35 RBIs in 57 games.

|The 2014 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite arrives at a hotel in Arroyo Grande, Calif.,
at 1:11 a.m. after an 857-mile drive on Christmas Day. Photo by Mary Lowry
By Mary Lowry
Minivans are largely the laughingstock of the automotive world, ridiculed for not being sporty or cool, put down for being mommymobiles. And I know moms who don't even want to be seen in them.
But after a long road trip that began on Christmas Day and put a car to a very grueling test, I'm here to praise the lowly minivan and give it the credit it deserves.
My niece Cate was getting married in Arroyo Grande, Calif., three days after Christmas. So I and my son and daughter-in-law who live near Portland decided to drive down there together, along with their two children, 9-year-old Lizzy and 4-year-old Ben. We wanted to get there as fast as we could, to have maximum time with all the rest of the family, so we decided to drive straight through. The distance between their Oregon home and the California hotel is 857 miles. It's a drive that would take about 14 hours, according to Google Maps.
Well. Three adults and two young children, all closely related, together in a car for 14 hours, could potentially be as stressful as Nik Wallenda crossing the Grand Canyon on a wire. But we would be in the 2014 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite minivan, with comfortable seating for eight, three rows of seats, and a rear-seat DVD entertainment system. I knew the Odyssey would increase our chances of survival as a family, but I had no idea what a profound difference it would actually make.
We started loading up the Odyssey on Christmas morning. Lizzy had already staked out a corner seat in the third row and she set to work arranging her traveling necessities – an entourage of Uglydolls and stuffed animals, her iPad Mini, Rainbow Loom, fleece blanket, Pillow Pet, food snacks, water bottle, backpack, suitcase, and one of the two headsets for the car's DVD player – until she had effectively turned the third row area into her own apartment.
We positioned Ben in a second-row seat on the opposite side of the car, so the kids would be out of arm's reach of each other. We folded down the middle seatback to create a big center console with cupholders and bins Ben could use to stash his snacks, water bottle, Insignia Flex tablet, a few of the toy cars from his backpack full of them, and his own headset for the DVD player. On the floor, we put a tote bag full of children's classic DVDs I got from a Sno-Isle library, plus two new ones the kids got for Christmas: "Despicable Me 2" and "Monsters University."
Even with the third row seat upright to create Lizzy's apartment, there was still lots of room in the Odyssey's rear cargo area because its bottom has a deep well. We were able to get three more carry-on-size suitcases in there, along with several duffel bags, assorted tote bags, a sleeping bag in a stuff sack, various extra shoes, heavy winter parkas, our snowstorm emergency equipment, and the equivalent of a survivalist's food pantry so we wouldn't have to stop for dinner (it would take too much time and most places would be closed for Christmas anyway).
And then off we went. And a miracle happened: The children were angels the entire time. A 4-year-old and a 9-year-old in a car for 14 hours with no whining, no crying, no fighting, no fidgeting, no screaming or yelling, no complaining, no kicking the seat in front of them, no freaking out, no driving the adults crazy. This is unprecedented in human history. And the return trip was very much the same. We owe it all to the 2014 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite minivan, we really do, because the miracle wouldn't have happened without it.
Here are a few more of the many things we liked about the Odyssey:
- Power sliding doors on both sides. In addition to being convenient for entry and exit, and loading and unloading, the doors were fun for the kids (especially Ben) to operate. So, we didn't have to plead or scold to get them into or out of the car. They were happy for any legitimate opportunity to open or close the doors. And, with Odyssey's low step-in height, the kids could get in and out easily.
- Manually-operated mesh shades on all second- and third-row windows. Great for relief from too much sun on the face, and for more privacy, particularly at night when the DVD player is lighting up the interior. Manual operation allowed the kids to raise or lower their own shades to suit themselves.
- A built-in vacuum cleaner system. A godsend for people like me who like a clean car and don't often have children on board. Located inside a side wall in the rear cargo area, it has a flexible hose long enough to reach all the way to the driver and front passenger footwells. It includes crevice and upholstery attachments. I used it several times during the trip to control the incredible mess kids can make of a car. Does anything they eat even make it into their mouths? Without the vacuum system, if we had left a door or window open too long, the Odyssey would have had seagulls circling above it.
- The many plug-ins for electronic devices and convenient stowage spaces located throughout the vehicle. No space is wasted inside the 2014 Odyssey, and we used every inch of it during our trip. We three adults agreed enthusiastically that the people who designed Odyssey's interior really knew what they were doing, and that they had thought of everything.
- Blind Spot Information System. One of the best recent advancements in automotive safety technology (and available on more new cars and trucks all the time), it was extremely useful during our trip, which included long stretches of driving in pitch dark or heavy fog, and sometimes both at once. Automatic notification of a vehicle in the blind spot on either side eliminates lane-change anxiety in those sketchy conditions.
- Power and performance. Odyssey's 248-horsepower V6 engine did a remarkably good job under the most demanding circumstances: hauling us, all our stuff and the heavy car itself up steep grades at Grants Pass and Siskiyou Summit in southern Oregon, and the Mount Shasta area in California. The six-speed automatic transmission, also faced with a tough task during those circumstances, was downright saintly. When the road was level, the combo soared.
- We averaged 23.8 mpg fuel economy on our trip, better than the Odyssey's EPA combined city/highway rating of 22 mpg. (Its city rating is 19 mpg; highway is 28 mpg.) About 90 percent of our driving was on freeways and highways, but with all the extra weight, the mountain passes, and the definitely un-mommyish driving habits of all three of us, 23.8 could be considered darn good.

It's no secret that manufacturers are trying hard to bring so called unique products to market. Computer peripherals are one of those things where there is so much choice, yet so little difference between each and every product. There are so many on the market today it can be hard for us consumers to find what we really want and need. Whether it's for home, work or gaming, having a good mouse is important if you want to keep your hand and wrist in good shape. Comfort will also most likely increase your productivity since you won't be taking breaks as often. For gaming, you really need more than what an average mouse has to offer. Speed, precision and even comfort comes to mind. If you're not fast enough, you will be left behind and if you're not accurate enough, nothing will stop people from easily passing you by. While spending all those hours gaming, one might as well have a mouse that feels good and performs well. After all, mice are pretty much an extension of our bodies nowadays.
Some of you might not be aware, but OCZ doesn't only manufacture memory based products such as RAM and flash drives, but also some peripherals including mice, keyboards, mouse pads, as well as what they call NIA, a neural impulse actuator. Today, I will be looking at OCZ's latest gaming mouse, released just a few weeks ago, the Equalizer's successor – named the Dominatrix Laser Gaming Mouse. When OCZ does something, it's usually done right, so let's see if this product can keep that trend going and if this mouse can truly dominate its competitors!
Closer look:
OCZ ships the Dominatrix into a decent looking, solid, cardboard box. On the front, every important feature is clearly printed white on black around the edges with the mouse right in the middle grabbing most of the attention. On the back, every feature has a short and clear description so it is easy to figure out what we're dealing with. Obviously, OCZ doesn't want you to forget about the company and its mouse so their logo is listed in large, white and stylish font all around the box. Should you have any problems, OCZ offers a three year warranty, even though it only says 12 months on the back of the box.
Once taken out of its box, the Dominatrix is protected by a plastic clamshell, nothing out of the ordinary, but it does the job well. The user manual is found inside along with a driver disc and seven 40 grams weights. A grand total of 280 gram for the less mathematically inclined. As you can see, the paper disc case looks quite beat up, but it is simply because it was tightly packed inside the shell. Finally, at the other end of the well sized wire, a gold plated USB connector can be found.
Let's it take it out of its packaging and have a better look at it now.

Almost every kind of disease can be treated successfully by HYDROPATHY. TERM S In-patients £2 2s per week. Out " £1 Is ~ FEMALE ATTENDANTS FOR LADIES. The Mild Treatment Very Suitable for Children. Hours of Consultation— 2 to 4 Daily at Institution, Montreal and Tuam streets. After G p.tn., at Mr Wallis' Private .Residence, Durham Street South, Near the Belt. [Extract from Telegraph, April 28th.] What I suffered for twenty-three years, language fails me to describe. Those suffering from that distressing complaint—bronchitis—are the only ones that can form any idea of it. However, to make the matter short, I have had the best advice to be obtained, both here and in Cornwall, England, without any beneficial result. When at about the lowest ebb, a friend called my attention to Mr Wallis' advertisement in the Star. I called on that gentleman, stated my case; His answer was—" I can't cure you, but can do you a world of good." He attended me for a week ; the result astounded me ; within two days he gave me more relief than all the drugs I have taken during half a life-time. Although Mr Wallis told me he couldn't cure me, yet I have been at work three months in splendid health, and still feel first rate. The only apology I can offer you, is that the hundreds suffering from the same complaint may get relief as I did.—Yours, etc., Johnson Thomas. Aldred street, Christchurch,
(Copy.) Christchurch, Feb. 14th, 1881. To S. Wallis, Esq., Hydropathist. Sir, —I write the following hoping you will publish it for the benefit of the public. Some four years ago my wife was taken suddenly ill. I called in a doctor, who at once pronounced it rheumatic fever. He attended her for a short time, and then gave up the case. What to do I did not know. My wife was screaming with pain, which with lightning rapidity passed from one part of the body to another, and the doctor having left us to shift for ourselves. In our last extremity, when death seemed inevitable, Mr Denham, coach builder, advised me to apply to you ; and if ever a human being was snatched from the jaws of death, my wife was on that occasion. Although you only took a fortnight to cure her, you thoroughly eradicated the disease, root and branch. I remain, yours ever obliged, John Hebbbrt, Master Butcher. South Town Belt, Christchurch. (Copt.) Oxford Terrace, Christchurch, March 7th, 1881. To Mr Wallis, Hydropathist. Dear Sir, —I send you the following to make any use of you like. Some years ago Mrs Sherlock was under the care of an eminent M.D., suffering from a large fluid tumour internally. Under his care she gradually grew worse, and was at last reduced to a mere skeleton. In this stage three of the leading doctors in Christchurch held a consultation, finally deciding that nothing could bo done for her. In this critical state I placed her under your care, when, to the astonishment of every one that knew her (the doctor included), in two months you completely cured her ; and ever since, lam happy to say, she has enjoyed the best of health. Any person desiring further information can either apply to Mrs Sherlock, Durham street, or at my photographic rooms, Oxford terrace. I have the honor to remain, Yours truly, War. Sherlock, Photographer.
(Copy.) Strickland street, Cashel streo East, Christchurch. March Ist. To Mr Wallis, Water Doctor. Sir, —I had intended long ago to write and inform you that the wonderful. cure you effected for me five years since was a permanent one, for since that time I have not lost a day's work through ill health. You will remember how for months I had gone almost daily to a surgeon with the usual result (viz., getting worse), the pain in my head so severe as to almost drive me out of my mind. As a last resource I was just about going to the hospital, when I heard of you ; fortunately for me I did not go to that institution, for at that time a young man suffering from the same complaint was admitted there. A seton was put in at the back of the neck. That, with other so called medical treatment, very soon affected his eyesight, so much so that when I saw him he was unable to distinguish one color from another. In conclusion, sir, I would say facts are stubborn things. Six weeks under your care turned me out a healthy man—about the same time turned the other young fellow out a corpse. Wishing you every success, I remain, John Wilson, 820 a Carpenter. VALUABLE DISCOVERY for the HAIR. A very nicely perfumed Hairdressing, called THE MEXICAN HAIR RENE WER, now being sold by most Chemists and perfumers througout the country, at 3s. 6d. per bottle, is fast superceding all the old restorers and dyes for the purpose of changing grey or white hair to its natural original color, for it will positively restore the hair in every case of greyness to its original color, without dyeing it or leaving that offensive smell which most of the hair preparations of the day do. This preparation has never been known to fail in restoring the hair to its natural color and gloss in from eight to twelve days. It promotes growth and prevents the hair falling out, eradicating dandruff, and leaving the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It imparts peculiar vitality to the roots of the hair, restoring it to its youthful freshness andy vigor. Daily applications of this preparation for a week or two will surely restore faded, grey, or white hair to its natural color and richness. It is not a dye, nor does it contain any coloring matter or offensive substance whatever. Hence it does not soil the hands, the scalp, or even white linen, but produces the color within the substance of the hair. Read' the following from Mr. Nathan Berry, Chemist, Walkden : " One of my customers told me the other day he had had grey hair for thirty-five years, and after using one bottle of the Mexican Hair Renewer 1 sold him, it was restored to and kept its natural color." It may be had of any respectable Chemist, Perfumer, or Dealer in toilet articles in the kingdom, at 3s. 6d. per bottle. —Prepared by HENRY C. GALLUP, No. 493, Oxford street, London.

Dear Mary: Soon I will receive an inheritance that is almost equal to the amount remaining on my mortgage. I am a widow, age 55, with no dependents. I have 25 years with the same employer and have been participating in the company's 401k plan for the past 15 years. I plan to work until I am 65. Should I use the inheritance to pay off the mortgage or, as friends suggest, invest it in a variety of stocks and bonds and keep my mortgage because the interest is tax-deductible? — Eleanor D.
Dear Eleanor: You need to check with your tax professional because, as you know, I am not one. However, if I were you, I'd pay off that mortgage so fast the lender would get dizzy. Investing in your debt is always a wise decision because you cannot lose. Just keep in mind that your mortgage should be the last debt you pay off — after you have a healthy emergency fund and you have paid off all of your unsecured debts.
If you pay off your mortgage, you own your home. No matter what happens to the economy, your health or your job, you have no rent or mortgage payments.
As for the deductibility of mortgage interest, it is highly overrated.
Let's say you pay $1,000 a year in mortgage interest and you are in the 28-percent tax bracket. By deducting that $1,000 from your taxable income, you realize a $280 reduction in the taxes you owe. Does that make sense to you to choose to pay $1,000 so you can get $280 back? If so, I have a better deal for you. You send me $1,000 every year and I promise to send back $500 every April 15, no questions asked!
Dear Mary: A friend suggested that we look into a plan called "life estate," which would make sure that our home would go to our children, even in the event that we would have to go to a nursing home and our monies run out. We understand this plan would not permit the nursing home to take our home. Your thoughts? — Tom and Jackie
Dear Tom and Jackie: I am not an attorney, but I do have experience as a real estate broker. Generally, "life estate" is a term used to designate the way legal ownership or "title" is held on real property. To do this, you would deed your property to your children, who become the "remaindermen," and you become the "life tenants."
As the life tenants, you retain possession of the property, including full costs of maintaining the property. The life tenants cannot sell the property without the consent of the remaindermen. Further, your children would receive full ownership (fee simple) immediately upon the death of the last life tenant, without the property going through probate.
There are three advantages for you to convey your property now to a life estate:
You will have the legal right to remain in your home for the rest of your lives, without triggering a taxable event.
The property immediately passes to the remaindermen without the necessity of a probate upon your deaths.
Most states see a life estate as a limited interest, rather than a full asset, so you could more easily qualify for Medicaid assistance, if necessary.
I suggest that you meet with a qualified real estate attorney or escrow company if you wish to deed your property to a life estate.

Raptors-Kings Preview
The Sacramento Kings and Toronto Raptors have scuffled in recent
years as two of the NBA's worst teams. This season looks no
Both will look for improved defense as they try to snap slumps
Wednesday night, with the Kings hoping to avoid a fourth straight
loss while handing the Raptors an eighth in a row on the road.
The clubs are in last place in their respective divisions after
going a combined 55-87 last season. Neither team has finished with
a winning record in any of the past five seasons.
Both currently rank toward the bottom of the league in points
allowed, with Toronto giving up 101.9 per game and Sacramento
The Kings (4-12) are fresh off allowing their highest point
total of the season in a 116-81 road loss to the Los Angeles
Clippers on Saturday. In suffering the most lopsided defeat in
series history between the Pacific Division foes, Sacramento forced
just five turnovers and let Los Angeles shoot 54.7 percent.
"It was very frustrating," said Jason Thompson, who had 16
points and 12 rebounds. "They were pretty much getting anything
they wanted on the offensive end, and we obviously didn't make it
better by not scoring in the beginning. We got ourselves into a
hole that we couldn't get out of."
Even as they've struggled, the Kings have usually boasted a
potent offense, averaging 99.4 points over the last three seasons.
But Sacramento is scoring 93.6 per game this season – its lowest
mark since 1997-98.
The Kings' 34 first-half points Saturday were a season low.
"We didn't really come out with any energy," said DeMarcus
Cousins, held to eight points and six boards. "And it showed."
The Raptors (4-14) also suffered from a slow start in their last
game, falling behind 61-44 in the first half Monday at Denver. They
cut the deficit to one with 2:18 left but could not take the lead,
losing 113-110 after DeMar DeRozan missed a 3-pointer as time
"We made a commitment in the second half to play defense the
whole time," said point guard Kyle Lowry, who scored 12 of his
game-high 24 points in the fourth quarter.
"We have to play like we did in the second half in the first
That was the opener of a five-game trip for Toronto, which is
1-10 in road games. The current seven-game slide away from home is
the Raptors' longest since dropping their final eight road games of
the 2010-11 season.
They're 2-13 all-time in Sacramento, allowing an average of
105.5 points.
The Kings' offense could be tougher for the Raptors to slow down
if Tyreke Evans returns. He practiced Monday after sitting out two
games with a bruised left knee, and coach Keith Smart told the
team's official website he expects Evans to play. He's averaging
20.5 points in four career games against the Raptors, including 29
in a 98-91 win at Toronto on Jan. 11 in the teams' only meeting
last season.
Cousins posted 21 points and 19 rebounds in that game, but he
has only one double-double in his past nine games after ranking
sixth in league last season with 36.

Swim in the lagoon, fish from the wharf, dine alfresco on just-caught seafood and wander past the waterfront mansions. You can also trace the area's rich history in walking trails and public artworks. Today families, business people and tourists mingle along the waterfront, where the Larrakia Aboriginal people, Indonesian traders and European settlers have all left their mark.
Outdoor recreation is a big part of life along Darwin's waterfront, a short walk from the city centre. You can swim all year round in the lagoons along Darwin's waterfront. One offers a beach experience, with different waves to suit everyone from boogie boarders to toddlers. For a calmer swim, visit the recreation lagoon, a huge body of sea water where fish thrive, and you can sail and canoe.

If you somehow thought the new iPhone 5 would escape the wrath that is the Apple v. Samsung patent war, prepare to be mistaken. A U.S. court filing uncovered by Reuters reveals that "Samsung anticipates that it will file, in the near future, a motion to amend its infringement contentions to add the iPhone 5 as an accused product."
The filing comes a week after Apple announced the iPhone 5, which hits stores on Friday. Apple says it sold more than 2 million iPhone 5 units within the first 24 hours after the device became available for pre-order on September 14.
"Based on information currently available, Samsung expects that the iPhone 5 will infringe the asserted Samsung patents-in-suit in the same way as the other accused iPhone models," reads the filing, which was submitted to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California late Wednesday. "Samsung plans to file a motion to amend its infringement contentions to address the iPhone 5 as soon as it has had a reasonable opportunity to analyze the device."
Samsung and Apple are currently embroiled in patent lawsuits in 10 countries around the world.
In a separate statement, Samsung asserted that "Apple continues to take aggressive legal measures that will limit market competition. Under these circumstances, we have little choice but to take the steps necessary to protect our innovations and intellectual property rights."
Apple Korea responded to Samsung's latest pushback, saying that the company values "originality and innovation," and that it makes "products to delight our customers, not for our competitors to flagrantly copy."
Apple won a sweeping $1.05 billion victory over Samsung at the end of August when a court decided that Samsung had violated a number of its design and software patents.
The court also ruled that Apple had not violated any of Samsung's patents, a decision that has clearly not stymied Samsung's commitment to fighting back against Apple.

Holiday sales critical for Nokia after weak quarter
Nokia is expected to report another quarterly loss next week, raising the stakes for its holiday-season sales battle with smartphone rivals Apple and Samsung.business Updated: Oct 13, 2012 17:14 IST
Nokia is expected to report another quarterly loss next week, raising the stakes for its holiday-season sales battle with smartphone rivals Apple and Samsung.
The new top-of-the-range Lumia 820 and 920 smartphones that are vital to Nokia's survival arrive in stores in November, just as people start buying presents for Christmas and other holidays.
Powered by Microsoft's Windows software, they face tough competition from Apple's new iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy SIII.
Analysts said Nokia chief executive Stephen Elop will need to set out a convincing marketing strategy for the Lumia phones, including more details on sales partnerships with mobile network operators, when the company announces its results on October 18.
Once the world's biggest mobile phone maker, Nokia fell behind rivals in smartphones and has racked up more than 3 billion euros in operating losses in the last 18 months.
The Finnish company is pinning its hopes on a partnership with Microsoft to use its Windows software which powers around just 3 percent of the global smartphone market, compared with Google's Android which has cornered two-thirds of the market.
Most analysts have written off Nokia's third quarter as a weak one, without the new Lumia models to help compensate for a drop in sales of older models with running its legacy Symbian software.
"So we're looking at a sort of vacuum in Q3. In addition to that, you have the Symbian volumes coming down very rapidly," said Swedbank analyst Hakan Wranne, who has a "buy" rating on the stock.
On average, analysts forecast Nokia to post an underlying operating loss of 320 million euros ($414 million) from its handset business, according to a Reuters poll.
On a group level the net loss is expected to surge to 780 million euros, or 21 cents per share, from 68 million euros, or 2 cents a share, a year earlier.
Wobbly start
Nokia's shares have risen more than 45 percent from a year-low of 1.33 euros in July and some analysts say even modest sales success for the new Lumia phones could lift shares higher. They are still down around 70 percent since the Microsoft deal in February 2011.
"If they manage to take say 5 percent of the smartphone market and show just half-decent margins... well then the stock looks attractive at current levels," said Wranne who has a target price of 2.80 euros on Nokia shares.
Nokia's Windows phones are forecast to have made up about 2 percent of global smartphone sales in the third quarter.
If Nokia fails to show Lumia volumes picking up by early next year, many investors and analysts have said the company may need to change its strategy -- as well as its leader.
Of 30 analysts surveyed by Reuters, nine had a "sell" rating on the stock and seven had a "buy." The rest recommended a "hold".
The Lumia phones had a wobbly launch in September, disappointing investors who complained about a lack of detail on pricing and partnerships with the network operators that distribute and subsidize phones.
The company has since announced a partnership with AT&T in the United States and some prices in Europe, but analysts said Elop needs to convince investors it has the right partnerships and sales incentives in place to promote Lumia phones.
"It will be a tough proposition," said James Crawshaw, analyst at S&P Capital IQ Equity, who rates the stock a "hold".
Another concern is that Nokia may run out of cash. Its cash position is forecast to fall to 3.4 billion euros at the end of the third quarter from 4.2 billion three months earlier.
Nokia has been cutting spending and selling assets such as its Vertu luxury handset division. It is also considering selling and leasing back its waterfront headquarters in Espoo, a short drive from Helsinki.
Spreads on Nokia's bonds show many investors are wary. Five-year credit default swaps on Nokia's debt have climbed to 1,068 points, implying a probability of default around 61 percent.

Salt Lake City makes list of top 25 cities with the most Energy Star buildings in the United States
Release Date: 04/11/2012
Contact Information: Molly Hooven firstname.lastname@example.com 202-564-2313 202-564-4344
Salt Lake City makes list of top 25 cities with the most Energy Star buildings in the United States
DENVER (April 11, 2012) – For the first time, Salt Lake City made the list of top 25 cities with the most Energy Star buildings in the country - ranking 24th. In 2011, the nearly 16,500 Energy Star certified buildings across America have helped save nearly $2.3 billion in annual utility bills and have prevented greenhouse gas emissions equal to emissions from the annual energy use of more than 1.5 million homes.
"More and more organizations are discovering the value of Energy Star as they work to cut costs and reduce their energy use," said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson. "This year marked the twentieth anniversary of the Energy Star program, and today Energy Star certified buildings in cities across America are helping to strengthen local economies and protect the planet for decades to come."
Several programs made Salt Lake City stand out among cities nationwide. The Utah Building Energy Efficiency Strategies (UBEES), a coalition of government agencies, utilities, building industry, and key industry stakeholder partnerships, has been actively encouraging public and private buildings to benchmark with Portfolio Manager. Portfolio Manager is an interactive energy management tool that tracks and assesses energy and water consumption of buildings. In 2011, UBEES hosted roundtable discussions, completed the Benchmarking & Best Practices Guidelines, and worked with the Governor's Energy Advisor to recognize businesses that participate.
Nineteen schools in Salt Lake City School District have earned the Energy Star. The District was recognized as an Energy Star Partner of the Year in 2012, and worked closely with Utah Building Energy Efficiency Strategies (UBEES) to begin its benchmarking efforts. Seventy-three percent of Salt Lake City metro area Energy Star certified buildings are K-12 schools.
Energy use in commercial buildings accounts for nearly 20 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions at a cost of more than $100 billion per year. Commercial buildings that earn EPA's Energy Star must perform in the top 25 percent of similar buildings nationwide and must be independently verified by a licensed professional engineer or a registered architect. Energy Star certified buildings use an average of 35 percent less energy and are responsible for 35 percent less carbon dioxide emissions than typical buildings. Fifteen types of commercial buildings can earn the Energy Star, including office buildings, K-12 schools, and retail stores.
Launched in 1992 by EPA, Energy Star is a market-based partnership to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through energy efficiency. This year marks Energy Star's 20th anniversary. Over the past 20 years, with help from Energy Star, American families and businesses have saved about $230 billion on utility bills and prevented more than 1.7 billion metric tons of carbon pollution. Today, the Energy Star label can be found on more than 60 different kinds of products and more than 1.3 million new homes.

We start with set up and end with diving into specific questions participants might have such as "How do you do that effect where it sounds like the singer is talking through a cell phone?" and "What are the differences between microphones and how do I know which one to use?" Personal instruments and microphones are not required, but if you have something you'd like to bring in, feel free!

So I race a BMW E30 in the States in the SCCA's ITS class. I have been using HLT for 5 years now - recording directly on my iPhone. But I always run out of space, so this Christmas I bought myself a GoPro Hero+ to make life easier.
Connecting via Wireless seems like it would be straight forward with Capture on my phone... But I still question the sequence of events at a technical level that need to be in place... For instance... Do I set the connection to the camera via capture first? Then Start HLT, and make that connection? Another one, Will it overlay after the race in post processing onto a new version of the video (double the recording?).
So I am systems analyst by trade, and with anything new I would like to understand the process before I head to the track.

And what sort of a life would that have been. The rat is like a crazy cat lady. They are as sick and twisted as the stories. So, off to the counter I went with 2 copies of the book. I read the first story in Borders before buying and literally laughed out loud. I have to give thumbs up to whoever chose the layout of this book -- the first story was by far the O! Canada and the only time I laughed and felt happy throughout the rest of the stories that I read. If Sedaris wanted to do a bestiary and get some points across to humans that would read the stories, I think he would have Cabada much better if he followed the lines of the first story "The Cat and the Baboon" and the title story "Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk".More Info
The book is very well designed, with just enough off-topicness to keep the book Canafa while reading it. In many ways this book seems more like a story book than the old mundane books I read in the past from other companies. I highly respect this bookand hope that I can find other books from this same company for other subjects.More Info
The reviews, studies, analysis and proposed research programme of this book argue that the strategies of school leaders are of considerable theoretical and practical O! Canada to schools, the governance of schooling and the behaviour and performance of schools. While this book offers a blueprint for further inquiry, it remains for the reader to accept the challenge. Doing so will enable important new insights into strategy and school leadership. Susan Albers Mohrman is deputy director of the School-BasedManagement Project and senior research scientist with the Center for Effective Organizations, inthe School of Business at the University of Southern California. School leaders across the nation are exploring ways to better educate students and improveschool performance.More Info
However, the good news is that Penguin Classics are to republish The Grass Arena. He recently played 15 opponents all at the same time and won 14 out of the 15 games. A wonderful book, with real literary merit, Down and Out in London and Paris pales into insignificance in comparison as a document of the lives of the destitute and broken. This memoir, written in the 1980s, but looking back on a life lived on the streets of London in the 1950s and 60s, is a minor masterpiece.Index 0

Maryland, joining the Big Ten in 2014, could drop scheduled games against FCS opponents James Madison, Richmond and Howard, the Baltimore Sun reports.
The Terrapins would be right in line with the Big Ten's shift away from FCS teams in an effort to bolster the league's overall strength of schedule.
Could other conferences follow suit?
Alabama coach Nick Saban wants to take the Big Ten's move a step further by separating the big boys from the rest of the country.
"I'm for five conferences—everybody playing everybody in those five conferences," he told the Birmingham News during a Crimson Caravan stop. "That's what I'm for, so it might be 70 teams, and everybody's got to play 'em…"
He'd also like to see the SEC go from eight conference games to nine each year.
"I mean, strength of schedule is important, but also, how about the fans?," he said. "Don't they want to see good games and all that?"

On March 2, 2011, President Barack Obama presented Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival with the National Medal of Arts, the highest arts award given to artists and arts patrons by the United States Government. Situated in the Berkshires of Massachusetts, Jacob's Pillow is the nation's longest running dance festival, founded in the 1930s by Ted Shawn, "the Father of American dance."
In late August, Paul Scolieri, assistant professor of dance, attended the final week of the 2011 Festival with two Barnard students, Dance major Marygrace Patterson '12 and Dance and American Studies major Caroline Walthall '11. Together they viewed rare films and examined papers in the Pillow's extensive archives. They attended performances by the Mark Morris Dance Group and a world-premiere collaboration between Kyle Abraham and Camille A. Brown, two choreographers who have created dances for Barnard students in the past. They also attended public lectures and discussions, including a conversation between Mark Morris and Annie Leibovitz about the relationship between dance and photography.
One highlight of their Pillow visit was an afternoon tea with Jeanette Roosevelt, the founder of the Barnard College Department of Dance. Professor Roosevelt visited them from nearby Lenox to talk about her seventy-year relationship with the Pillow and about the early years of the Barnard Dance Department. She was delighted to hear about the current students' thesis projects. Also at the tea was Dance and History major Laura Quinton '13, who spent the entire summer at Jacob's Pillow with a coveted internship in the Pillow archives. In this role, Laura catalogued some of the archive's precious programs and photos, in addition to working alongside research fellows and Pillow visitors.
Professor Scolieri is currently writing a book about Ted Shawn. This summer he was a research fellow at the Pillow, and is currently the Joan Nordell Fellow at the Houghton Library, Harvard University, which houses some exceptional archival material related to Shawn.
This trip was sponsored by the Office of International Programs, as part of an initiative to encourage faculty/student interaction beyond the classroom in order to foster a greater sense of community. Funds for faculty to take students on trips abroad and domestically are available for the 2011 -2012 year. Faculty interested in applying for these funds should contact Associate Provost Hilary Link at email@example.com.

Security Camera
- Security is an essential part of any store, shops, or place that needs to be monitored. If it is not monitored, anything could happen, so you must go ahead and take the precaution to prevent it from happening or be able to do something when it does occur. For example, if you own a shop and it gets robbed, it is horrible to not being able to do anything about it. If you have the surveillance tapes that you have recorded, you can use that as evidence and show the police who may be able to get the man. As you can see, surveillance is important
- A security camera monitor allows a viewer to see the video feed from a security camera. It is not the most important decision to make in a home security system, but there are some bits of advice that should be followed.
- Security camera monitors should match the resolution of the security camera sending the video feed. Having a security camera monitor with a higher resolution than a security camera is a waste of money, and a security camera monitor that has a lower resolution than a security camera will not be able to take advantage of the camera's capabilities. A security camera monitor should also be in color if the security camera's feed is in color
- The size of the security camera monitor also matters. Multiple video feeds require a larger size security camera monitor, while a single video feed only needs a small monitor, around nine inches.
- Finally, figure out what kind of monitor can handle the extended use. Televisions, for instance are poor security camera monitors. Computer monitors are designed for extended use, with flat-screen LCD monitor being the best, due to the lack of heat it produces
Security Camera Work
- Basically, a camera set into position with the help of what is known as a video transmitter running to a receiver allows the view from a security camera in a specific place or aimed in a certain direction, such as in a parking lot or door entrance. The security camera whether it is wireless or not, then makes it possible for the surveillance of anyone or anything through sending visual signals through the lenses back to a security monitor which is connected directly to the system
- In some cases security cameras are remotely operated, while others rely on the actual surveillance of a person sitting in front of the security monitor at all times in a separate area. Another form of security camera, simply records the surveillance and it can be viewed at another point and time. Security cameras all have to have power of some kind in order to work however
- Additionally security cameras work on frequencies as well as range. Different concepts are taken into consideration when a security camera is installed. Therefore, there are many security cameras on the market today. Some are better than others, while some security cameras are basic and simple, to those security cameras that are very complex
- One of the worst materials a security camera would have to go through would be metal, these types of security cameras are high frequency cameras and are very expensive. Most wireless cameras are limited to four different frequencies while others that must have hidden video lines such as in ceilings or walls can have additional frequencies. The range of reception on security cameras vary. Security cameras provide the initial perception that the issue is safety, while the second of course is protection, from theft or vandalism of property. The security cameras come in many different designs as well as types. Some security cameras help assist authorities when trying to apprehend suspects in crimes or other acts of violence, or vandalism
- You want to have a good reception especially if the security camera that is in use, is the type that simply records surveillance. As opposed to a security camera that has a person monitoring at all times. In this case you want good reception as well but it doesn't have to be nearly as clear. Security cameras can be as small as a button on a shirt, while others can be the size of an average camcorder. The size of a security camera varies as well
- Price doesn't necessarily mean better, depending on what the security camera will be used for. If the camera is going to be for personal use then one that isn't that expensive will probably do what you need it for. Security cameras are made to work for the security of people, places, and things of value, as well as keeping places safe and protected. In some cases security cameras are used to give people the peace of mind of feeling safer than they normally would without one
