Fans of this long-running wrestling franchise came away feeling that last year's effort, the first on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, was average at best. With modes trimmed out and odd changes to the control scheme that messed with match pac- ing, fans turned their attention forward in hopes of improvement.
Based on our brief time with the game, developers Yuke's and Visual Concepts are addressing concerns not only from last year, but those that have lingered for a while. Last year's back-and-forth chain wrestling tie-up system has been tweaked. Players can tie, which opens the door for them to break out of the lockup or deliver a cheap blow.
One of the other major changes is an overhaul to the reversal system. In last year's game, priority could switch back and forth indefinitely. Provided both players nailed the timing, you could go on and on without either side landing a blow.
Reversals are now on a meter that recharges over time. If your bar is empty, you'd best stay away from your
opponent or engage on your own terms when there's an opening. Some moves require a major reversal, which costs two sections of meter. Others give you a single opportunity for a string of attacks, and both of these are noted with different versions of the reversal icon.
The referee, pin, and submission systems are updated for 2K16. Rope breaks are now initiated manually, and you need to make sure the ref can actually see you grab it. You can still kick out of a pin, but the meter is overhauled. The horizontal display is gone in favor of a circular meter. You need to stop the bar in the pie-shaped section of the meter to pull out of the pin. As you get weaker, the wedge shrinks and can move, making it harder to escape. Functionally, it's the same, but works better aesthetically.
The submission minigame takes a page from UFC Undisputed 3. When you have someone in a hold, a circular meter appears with two bars (one for each opponent). The aggressor uses his line to chase the defender's. If they overlap, a meter fills up, ultimately leading to tap-out.
Our demo included one-on-one quick play matches and the first Showcase fight, featuring cover star Stone Cold Steve Austin. The introduction takes us all the way back to 1996, for the King of the Ring finals. Both Austin and opponent Jake the Snake Roberts were injured earlier in the night, with Roberts taking a beating from Vader.
Objectives return this year, and as Austin, players need to bring Roberts into critical range and then perform a Stone Cold Stunner before a pin. The controls and the user interface depicting stamina and momentum are identical to last year, with no major surprises. I transitioned to WWE 2K16 without a problem.
We don't have information yet on the other modes, including creation, universe, and career. They're likely to be in place as you'd expect, but details on changes and improvements will come later. Our first look was brief, with very little to sink our teeth into, but what was there felt better than last year's first outing on new-gen platforms

The debate never ends. Fish oil supplements versus krill oil supplements. This subject has been a popular discussion among health experts as well as users for many years. Both products offer excellent health benefits and a recent study confirms another good result for krill oil supplements.
A new study collected the effects of 12 weeks of daily krill oil supplementation on fasting serum triglyceride (TG) and lipoprotein particle levels in subjects whose habitual fish intake is low and who have borderline high or high fasting serum TG levels (150–499 mg/dL). Researchers concluded that krill oil lowers serum TG levels in subjects with borderline high or high fasting TG levels. The data included 300 male and female subjects in a double-blind, randomized, multi-center, placebo-controlled study. Relative to subjects in the placebo group, those administered krill oil had a statistically significant calculated reduction in serum TG levels of 10.2%. Moreover, LDL-C levels were not increased in the krill oil groups relative to the placebo group. The outcome of the pooled analysis suggests that krill oil is effective in reducing a cardiovascular risk factor.
Krill oil contains omega-3 fatty acids which have been clinically proven to be more efficiently absorbed by our body as they are carried to our body cells in a phospholipid form. Unlike fish oil (which is 61-65% bioavailable), it mimics the very membranes of your cells, thus penetrating so easily that you get 95-98% of what you pay for. In addition, a super-antioxidant found only in krill oil is an ultra-potent nutrient, stronger than most other antioxidants including Co-Q10, for protection from the free radical damage that promotes aging and disease.
Krill oil contains the three most important elements the human body needs to function properly: phospholipids, omega-3 essential fatty acids (similar to those of fish oil), and astaxanthin, a very powerful antioxidant.

Ratings for Dr. Kenneth W. Healey
I love Dr. Healey and his staff!!!! He's been my doctor for 14 years.
Dr. Healey tied my tubes in 2003. I've had problems ever since. He made a second incesion and they both have a lot of scar tissue. It's enough that 5 out of 6 doctors told me I needed surgery to fix it. The only doctor that said no wanted to give it a little more time to see if the problems would stop. The area around the scar still swells and still gets tender. I've had another doctor look at the scar a couple of years ago and she was shocked at how bad the scar is and how tender it still is. The only reason Dr Healey tied my tubes is because the other doctor left the practice. If we had met Dr Healey before the procedure I would have gone somewhere else. When we went to Dr Healey to tell him I was having problems and wanted to know what he recommended. Dr Healey couldn't bother to put his phone down long enough to talk to us until we said we wanted him to pay to fix it. He has no bedside manner. I tell my female friend to avoid this practice. I wouldn't trust Dr Healey to spay a dog
I have been going to Dr. Healey for 22 years he is the best dr I have ever been to!! He delivered all 3 of my kids and 3 of my family's kids and he also did my surgery's and found my cancer!!!! I LOVE THIS DOCTOR HE IS THE BEST EVER!!!!!!!!
Worse office Ever! After finding out I was pregnant, exciting because I am a new mom carrying my first child, I scheduled my appt with Arista Obgyn. They were the only office that could see me next day (because clearly no one booked appts. after meeting his horrible staff.) the doctor was unhelpful and in knowledgeable about how far along I was. the office would not give me any paperwork confirming my pregnancy. And they billed me for tests I hadn't been administered. And when calling to see if my bill could be fixed, the rude woman told me that she had done the billing herself and it was right! They overcharged me almost $80. I might send her a calculator for simple math. I called back this morning to see if my records had been Reviewed. She told me Dr. Healey did it yesterday. After asking if they had been released she became hostil and yelled that she had already answered me. In my experience Reviewed and Released are different words with different meanings. I do not recommend them
Misdiagnosed with cervical cancer, by Dr.Healey. He said he could see it during the exam, and took a biopsy. He then explained the next steps,and gave me an information packet. After a week of worrying and crying, they called back with the biopsy results. NO, I did not have cervical cancer, and everything was fine. Later that day I called to express my feelings of how I felt and to ask why a doctor would say something like that without knowing for sure, and that I was upset. The receptionist was rude and said maybe three times and why are you upset. When I replied back, "I was told I have cancer, when I do not!I've been worried for a week, along with my family. Do you not understand why I would be upset?" I expected some sort of an apology, but instead I was told by her she had a college degree and then I was called a b**ch, and was hung up on. I have never experienced anything like this before. I wish I would have read the reviews before ever entering this office. They should be shut down!!!
Doctor and staff are lackluster at best. My wife had a complication in pregnancy, and getting any needed information is like pulling teeth. We decided to switch doctors, and they said they would not release records for 30 days. Now she is 7.5 months pregnant and can't get treatment for a month. Not fair that they try and play games when there are possible health issues at risk. I would not recommend anyone using this doctor for your own health and safety.
I was shocked by the unprofessionalism of Dr. Healey and his staff. The staff is unfriendly and disorganized, Dr. Healey is unable to answer or satisfactorily explain the simplest of questions. I asked that my care be transferred to another practice (something that seems to be quite common for them judging by the manner in which they received this request) and have been told that my records will not be released for 30 days (which is law - common practice being 5 days or less). Would NOT recommend this practice to anyone.
Dr.Healy has done surgery on my left ovary and removal of the fallopion tubes. I am grateful, although I don't think I was ready to come off of medications when I did I think he was great and took great care of me. I think that we should give him and his staff the credit they deserve instead of bad experiences. The team saved my life and create lives of many unborn cildren. The fact of the matter is the man is going to do what is best instead of what you want. He has been in practice enough to know the in and outs of gynocological conditions and treatments. Females tend to use these parts of their bodies to get pain meds and he is hip to that behavior. So if you have something wrong with you, truley I recommend this doctor for your female problems and child bearing experiences. This was a great experience for me and even with complications of the recovery the issues were handled properly. Thank You arista ObGyN.............Sincerly,CHASTITY STATON
dr. healy is a horrible doctor. he is rude and very inconsiderate. i went in after taking a home pregnancy test (it was positive) and he did an ultrasound. he told me i wasn't pregnant and the home test must have been wrong. he was very rude about it and i left his office crying. i went to a different doctor the next day and they did an ultrasound and i was definitely pregnant. 10 weeks and 3 days to be exact. i truly believe this doctor needs a new career.
I have been going to Dr. Healey for over 6 years. Dr. Healey and his staff have seen me through a miscarriage followed by a DNC and the healthy birth of my son. During my son's pregancy I was a nervous wreck and the nursing staff were always nice and helpful with any calls of concerns or questions I had. Dr. Healey was very aware of my fears of losing this pregancy and took great care to ease my fears, and was very nice when he would get a call at 2am when I went into early labor at 30wks. I ended up having to be induced when I began to bleed in my 36wk and Dr. Healey's knowledge and care allowed me to deliver a healthy baby boy. All the nurses have always been helpful and nice and I enjoy Dr. Healey's years of experience instead of a dr. who only goes by the book. I would recommend him to anyone.

Krieger, McGibbon help Clemson score 11 late runs to defeat Georgia Tech
CLEMSON, S.C. -- No. 29 Clemson scored all 11 of its runs in its final four innings to defeat No. 19 Georgia Tech 11-3 in the first game a three-game series at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on Friday. The Tigers improved to 29-13 overall and 14-8 in the ACC. The Yellow Jackets fell to 27-15 overall and 11-11 in ACC play.
Daniel Gossett (7-2), the first of three Tiger pitchers, earned the win. In seven innings pitched, he allowed five hits, one run and two walks with four strikeouts.
Georgia Tech starter Buck Farmer (7-3) suffered the loss, as he yielded nine hits, eight runs (four earned) and five walks with four strikeouts in 6.1 innings pitched.
In the fifth inning, Tyler Krieger led off with an eight-pitch walk. Jon McGibbon hit a grounder to second for a potential double play, but Matt Gonzalez's throw to second was errant, allowing the runners to move to second and third. Two batters later, Tyler Slaton grounded out to second to score Krieger. Steve Wilkerson followed with a two-out double to score McGibbon.
The Tigers added a run in the sixth inning. Joe Costigan flared a one-out single to left and Tyler Krieger reached on a bunt single. McGibbon followed with a single up the middle to score pinch-runner Maleeke Gibson and give Clemson a 3-0 lead.
Zane Evans led off the top of the seventh inning with a double to left-center field on a 1-2 pitch. Two batters later, Sam Dove lined a one-out double down the right field line to score Evans. A.J. Murray then grounded a 1-2 pitch through the right side for a single to advance Dove to third. However, Mott Hyde struck out and Daniel Spingola grounded out to keep the Tigers ahead 3-1.
Clemson responded with five runs in the bottom of the seventh inning. Wilkerson lined a one-out single to center and Steven Duggar grounded a single through the right side. Garrett Boulware followed with a double down the left field line to score Wilkerson. After Jay Baum was intentionally walked to load the bases, Gibson reached on an error by Murray at first that allowed Duggar to score. Krieger and McGibbon each walked on four pitches to score Boulware and Baum. Thomas Brittle reached on a fielder's choice that plated Gibson.
Duggar led off the eighth inning with a walk and pinch-hitter Kevin Bradley flared a single to right-center. Baum followed with a sacrifice fly to right field to score Duggar. After Gibson singled through the right side, Krieger laced a single through the left side to score Bradley. McGibbon then lined a single to left-center field to score Gibson.
Gonzalez led off the ninth inning with a double down the left field line and scored on an error on a run-down play after Dove's grounder to the mound. Murray followed with a single through the right side to score Dove.
Krieger led Clemson's 13-hit attack by going 3-for-3 with two RBIs and two walks. McGibbon went 2-for-3 with three RBIs and two walks, while Wilkerson and Duggar added two hits apiece.
Dove and Murray had two hits apiece to pace the Yellow Jackets, who had eight hits in the contest.

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.
It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.
With most men, unbelief in one thing springs from blind belief in another.
People may talk about the equality of the sexes! They are not equal. The silent smile of a sensible, loving woman will vanquish ten men.
I believe a strong woman may be stronger than a man, particularly if she happens to have love in her heart. I guess a loving woman is indestructible.
The strength of women comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us. Men can be analysed, women merely adored.
There are three things men can do with women: love them, suffer for them, or turn them into literature.
A pessimist is a man who thinks all women are bad. An optimist is a man who hopes they are.
The superior man governs men, according to their nature, with what is proper to them, and as soon as they change what is wrong, he stops.
Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.

July 27, 2012 - Jupiter, FL -- GelTech Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GLTC), creators of FireIce, a revolutionary water enhancing fire suppressant that has the potential to change current firefighting techniques globally, announced that Peter Cordani, FireIce inventor and GelTech Solutions chief technology officer, and Ed Kleiman, GelTech Solutions wildland fire coordinator, were interviewed by FOX Business Network's John Stossel show which aired at 9:00 PM EDT Thursday.

My DIY At-Home Manicure Technique That Totally Looks Like I Went to the Salon
Salon quality nails without the salon quality small talk!
As much as I love nail art, I like my day-to-day nail look to be very easy, which is why I love press-on nails and glittery, textured polishes. Unlike a regular polish, it's not too noticeable when a sparkle manicure chips. And touch-ups are a cinch.
Recently, at slumber party-themed fall preview for Essence cosmetics, I went the super easy way out on painting my nails: I got a manicure.
My color choice was a combination of sheer, creamy white and peachy-pink glitter. I immediately decided this would be my go-to manicure of summer. Maybe it's yours, too? I'm going to show you how easy/pretty it is and then you can decide for yourself.
I started my at-home Essence manicure with a clear base coat and then added two coats of Colour & Go Nail Polish ($1.99) in Give Me Nude, Baby! It's a translucent yet warm white with buildable color. One coat looks healthy and bright, while two coats reads fresh and summery. Of course, you could stop here...
...but I like sparkle, so it's glitter time. I applied two coats of Colour & Go in Space Queen, a polish name I feel a pretty strong kinship with. The base is a sheer peach-pink and there are flecks of gold, green, and lilac glitter. This is not an in-your-face glitter, but it has a ton of shine and catches the sunlight beautifully. Also, because the glitter is multi-tonal, it basically goes with anything you wear.
The end result reminds me of shimmering beach sands and ocean water on a perfect summer day. Even better than the color is the fact that fixing chips is easy and the formula is fast-drying--so I don't have to sit around waiting after I do a touch-up,.
Do you have a signature nail color or look? Or do you just want to talk about how awesome Essence is? Their drugstore displays are my kryptonite.

DPS didn't recommend sending Guard to border, but thinks it may help
Jul. 30, 2014
Neither Col. Steve McCraw, director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, nor Major General John Nichols, adjutant general of Texas Military Forces, recommended to Gov. Rick Perry that he deploy up to 1,000 National Guard troops to the border. But, both McCraw and Nichols, in testimony Tuesday before the House Select Committee on the Fiscal Impact of Texas Border Support Operations, said they felt the open-ended Guard deployment could help reduce illegal border-crossings.

This works on Windows 7. Here's how you can restore some deleted Chrome bookmarks, a trick that certainly works on Windows 7. Using this solution we were able to recover the deleted Chrome bookmarks that weren't backed up.
If you've tried recovering deleted Chrome bookmarks before, you know that one of the recommendations is to swap two files between them, namely the "Bookmarks" and "Bookmarks.bak". But in some cases this recommendation might not work, especially if the two have the same recent timestamp and seem to have the same size. You can easily tell by a look a their size, that they don't have the necessary back ups.
The solution that worked in this matter, was not Chrome related, but Windows related. The good part is that during restore points, Windows 7 backs up user files as well as system files and the backup file is pretty easy to understand. So, if you have never payed much attention to this feature, now would be a good time to learn more about the System Restore.
In order to recover Chrome bookmarks, you have to recover the folder where they were saved, more precisely in User Data, which can be found under the pathway C:\Users\<Windows userid>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\ . So, if you are using the Chrome version 39.0.2171.95, you will be able to follow these steps.
The following steps are easy, all you have to do is to right-click on the User Data folder and open Properties. If you go to Previous Versions tab, you should find a list of backups. Now highlight the folder you need to restore and hit the Restore button. If that folder can still be accessed in the system, you will receive a message to announce you that "The folder has been successfully restored to the previous version".
After finishing the process, we also recommend that you make another backup of the folder. And another thing, before recovering the User Data files, completely close all functions of Google Chrome.
After the backup, we noticed that the User Data went from 150 MB to about 490 MB. The other part of the information was saved in a new folder, named Default. Practically, by using this solution to recover your deleted Chrome browser bookmarks, you will merge the files that Windows restores with those that haven't yet been backed up, meaning that this is more of a hack than an actual restore.
Chrome might not function right the first time you use it after the process: it might tell you that it has quit unexpectedly and ask you to sign in again.
But if you want to get rid of this process in time, you should save your bookmarks in an HTML file. It's easy, just go to Import/Export bookmarks.
We have also tried recovering deleted Chrome bookmarks on Windows 8, but it won't work the same and this is because the Restore Points of this OS doesn't have the option to also save user files.
Another way you can restore the deleted Chrome bookmarks is using an image backup. So, if you are one of those people who make timely image backups of their computers, you will be able to see the files existent in an older backup and copy them from the image backup to a PC.

What Does 'Page Six' Suddenly Have Against Lorne Michaels?
Two unfavorable items in a week.
Last Wednesday, for reasons unclear, "Page Six" ran a kinda weird item claiming that NBC was "on edge" over last month's ratings for Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, which were down 20 percent from May 2009 (NBC's perfectly reasonable explanation for the drop: Fallon got a boost last year from Jay Leno's farewell shows). Yesterday, there was another strange out-of-nowhere item, this one about the "tarnished crown" of Late Night executive producer Lorne Michaels, who, the Post reminds us, is responsible for Fallon, failed Tonight Show host Conan O'Brien, and the recent money-losing MacGruber movie, which was released nearly four weeks ago. So what, exactly, was the peg for this thing? And why two slaps at Michaels in a week? Is Richard Johnson angling for NBC's 12:30 slot? [Page Six/NYP, Page Six/NYP]

Seo for Buddypress 1.2.1 beta
1.2.1 beta is now ready for WordPress and WordPress MU without Buddypress.
I added new meta fields for post and pages.
New Version is compatible with wpSEO and All in One Seo.
Without Buddypress? I'm not sure I understand…
Sorry for my English. I want to say it still works, if you disable buddypress. Some users asked me for this, they like to use Seo for buddypress for there post and pages in wpmu without buddypress.
Hope this answer your question
Oh, OK, I got it — it works with or without Buddypress? Thanks Sven… (will test it soonish).
how come this doesnt work on my site?
nothing changes in the titles
using wp 3.0 beta-2 and bp 1.2.3
On my test site it`s working…
You have to go to General Seo and update the General Seo Options ones for the plugin to work.
Sorry, I will make this more clear in the next version.
this plugins works with all in one seo pack for wp?
Yes, from version 1.2.1 beta it supports wpseo and all in one seo pack
As described copied files, activated, pressed update on General Seo Options. Nothing updated, all default titles from BP.
I also tried delete all options from db through your plugin, it does not delete either.
Do you know what can be going wrong?
@svenl77 thats the first thing i did once i activated it doesnt show the new titles, just shows the default titles from buddypress
@dre1080 @dmitrikartashov
Version 1.1 is a tested stable version for bp 1.2.3 and wp 2.9.2. Please use this one. 1.2.x is in development and I won't have time before next week to continue on this plugin.
Thanks for the feedback.
@Svenl77 what did you mean with that "it works with wpSEO and All in One Seo???"
should i use Seo for Buddypress 1.2.1 beta with one of this (wpSEO or All in One Seo) together?
what is the difference if i use it as stand alone or together???? sorry but i dont understand!!!
@Svenl77 I was wondering when you would have the 1.2x stable? I want to use it on my site along with the the All in one seo. I'm running BP 1.2.3 and WP 2.9.2. and right now I lost all my rankings because the All in one is not compatible with Buddypress. I'm glad to hear that you made the seo for buddypress compatible with the All in one but which plugin will overwrite the main blogs Title, description etc if they are both active? Which one will overwrite the idividual posts title, descriptions etc for subdomains if they are both active? Any feedback would be helpful and keep up the great work.
@mark +1
same issue for me…
can anyone explain?
You do not need to use any other SEO plugin. Seo for buddypress is designed, to work as standalone full SEO tool. No need of any other software.
@mark @gregfielding
Compatible means, that the data you have inserted into posts with the other plugins, will be taken over to our plugin. So you don't have to worry, that you're loosing your data, if you want to change to our plugin. It don't means, that you should use both plugins. The wording "compatible" is a bit unlucky
The stable relies of the 1.2.x version will come in around one week
I'm running MU…wouldn't sub-blogs still use All-In-One SEO? They don't have your SEO option on their post page.
@gregfielding You need to activate the plugin sidewide.
So far its work perfect for me ) Waiting for next updates!
@Svenl77 Thanks for the quick reply. So if I understand you correctly, I only need to have the Seo for Buddypress Active site wide and it will pull the titles tags descriptions etc from all the posts that were inputed into the all in seo and it will do this across all my sub-domains. I then assume its does this for pages also across all subdomains. I also assume it does this for all my existing blog titles descirptions etc? I then leave the All in Seo as not active? or can it be unistalled? I'm not a developer so please excuse my ignorance. Thanks again for all the help
@mark, this is 100% right. That's how it should work. You can deactivate and delete All in one. The values are saved in the post meta. And will not be lost.
But wait for the new version coming this day.
In the 1.2.1 version there is a conflict with the auto save function, and you are loosing your meta data
@Svenl77 got it thanks, FYI, I downloaded 1.2.3 but I can't find where to set up the plugins features.(general seo etc) It is not showing up anywhere in dashboard like it was before.
@mark Same issue for me. Just installed this but can't find any general settings options in the dashboard areas.
I am running a single install of WP 2.9.2 and BP 22.214.171.124
I can see SEO options in pages and posts but nothing to do with a setup option anywhere.
Any advice people?
@mark @rossagrant I killed the menue with the last update… should be fixed now
@Svenl77. Thanks for fixing it. I don't clearly understand what to do under the plugins seo. I'm using Bp links and Gallery and I selected directory views, then check to extend to other components and uses other components, then click update components configuration and i don't see any changes anywhere except the check boxes disappear? I assume something was suppose to be generated so that I can write in the meta info? Please let me know thanks.
One other question which might be a dumb one, With this plugin, If a certain post is missing title, description, tags etc then does google not see any data on the post? Or does google see what was actually written in the post instead? I'm wondering if i need to go back to older posts that I had been lazy with and previously not written any seo into it and have to fill it all out now? Thanks again
- The topic 'Seo for Buddypress 1.2.1 beta' is closed to new replies.

Windows resets every time I startup
Hi. Im not very good with the technical stuff but this is what's happening. Last night I was carrying around my laptop in my back pack, I had put it to sleep. I get back home and I start it up but the computer had shut down completely and it restarts the normal way. After I put in my password it takes about 10 mins for it to open my desktop. Before it did it said that it was preparing my desktop, To see that it had completely restored all defaults. All my files are there and programs like vlc media and games. Google chrome was gone. I then find my battery is loose. So I pop it back in and it shuts off again. I switch on once again and the same thing happens. I've restarted and logged off and logged back in. But I cannot restore my computer back to how it was. I also get a warning that this is a temporary desktop and any changes I make will not be saved if restarted. Any body who can tell me what's going on?

It's that time of year to examine the most frustrating global obsession since the last frustrating global obsession. The U.S. Open and AT&T championships are upcoming and, glory be, it's Golf Season!
The most common questions asked of golfers everywhere are:
"Why do you do it?" "Are you really wearing that?" "When will you be home?" And the ever-insulting: "Is golf a sport?"
To address the last first: If golf is not a sport, why can the world's best athletes not play it? Michael Jordan has a tournament that annually attracts your favorites from every discipline, including Drew Brees, Marcus Allen, Mike Piazza, Julius Erving, hockey's Hull, Lemieux, and Gretzky.
Granted, these guys are better than most of us, but even they can't consistently beat a pro.
Granted #2, some NFL/NBA/MLB/NHL studs have been so banged up on their primary field of endeavor that they now play with magnets on their elbows, knees, backs and shoulders. I don't know that this technology works but these guys can't use the Porta-Potty for fear they'll get sucked onto the metal door and need the Jaws of Life to pry them free.
Playing in a tournament with Jack Nicklaus was the most excited I've ever been with a man but my first Celebrity Golf event was a disaster. The field included Burt Lancaster, Sammy Davis Jr., Jack Lemmon and other dead people of no relevance to the post-Boomer crowd, but each had throngs of admirers that day. I had one lone fan who appeared wearing an "Alan Thicke T-shirt" with my picture on the front! I grabbed on to him like a pit bull with a pork chop and on the final tee sliced a 50 yard drive right into his chest, causing him to sprout a teat full of ball dimples, barely alive but pleased as all get out -- nay, sexually aroused, I suspect -- about our sudden bond.
Years later, I've now hit enough people for a class action suit.
Alas, it takes a lot of balls to play the way I do.
Most fans have fun in the gallery, but if Sir Charles Barkley wants to find his errant shot in some rattler-infested swamp, who among you will volunteer to suck venom from his hind leg, no matter how curvy it looks in those commercials? "Let it go, Charles, get back in the cart!"
As a matter of confessional perspective, let me acknowledge that golf is an exacting game and I'm just an approximate guy.
My skill set peaks at bunker-raking. I've lost balls in the ball-washer.
My game in a word? "Kevorkian."
To those who say, "Golf is no exercise"... nonsense!
My sphincter gets a full workout when I play on TV. Getting ready to putt -- for the third time -- mine could bench press 400 lbs., a regular Arnold SchwarzzenSphincter.
Some days when I putt, the terrorists win.
I've been immortalized on the Golf Channel missing a 2-footer, choking at a level not seen since Pam Anderson's honeymoon video.
Terminology: "Handicap," the great equalizer, that numerical value designed to calculate your degree of incompetence... a quantifiable measure of your self-loathing.
Other sports offer compromise: there's a lower basket for shrimp ballers and baseball newbies get a t-ball. The NFL playing field could be leveled by giving the Redskins 5 downs. (A cheap shot but kinda funny, come on! Anyway, now they have RG3 so there's hope.)
But no other game offers that ultimate feel-good adjustment, the "Mulligan." Named after some hapless nincompoop, Mulligan is golf's way of saying, "I'm sorry, but I can't compete unless I get another chance. Apparently, I am too pathetic to play by the rules so I require some special dispensation to continue. I didn't get it right the first time so let's pretend it never happened."
Mulligans are the Big Oops, the Universal Do-Overs and wouldn't the world be a friendlier place if we had Mullies for everything?
(Cue Mulligan Theme Song: "If I could do it all over, I would do it all over you.")
The Mulligan Hall of Fame would honor General Custer, the Captain of the Titanic, and the Secret Service guy who said, "We're Secret... let's get Serviced... Hey, it's Colombia, what could go wrong?'
Everyone in Hollywood would get a Marriage Mulligan.
Political do-overs would have served Sarah Palin: "I can NOT see Russia from my house."
President Bush the Latter would take Mullies for Katrina and that WMD guesswork and Mr. Clinton would happily accept the Lewinsky Mully. Talk about blowing it!
No relief for your urologist, however. In the middle of your vasectomy, there is no comfort in, "My bad. Gotta take a knee here."
Incidentally, there is no evidence that golfers are inadequate sexually but if this column were just called "Golf," you might have stopped reading and would have missed this valuable tip: Don't take Viagra before golf. It hurts your swing 'cuz you can't keep your head down.
The coolest thing about golf is that you get to start a new hole every 7 strokes. Indeed, as we Boomers get older, odds are we won't be faster runners or hotter lovers but we might become better putters because we're already bent over.
A wish for your foursome: May you always find your balls and may your putter never flutter!

APR Energy
905p +21
Questor says BUY
APR listed in London last year after reversing into an investment vehicle set up by Pizza Express founder Hugh Osmond. The company revealed on Tuesday evening that it hadn't managed to get its audited accounts done in time, which caused its shares to slump by about 20pc. So its full-year numbers are delayed until April 16.
"This is later than was originally scheduled due to the complexities in reporting and accounting for the various corporate transactions which have taken place during the period," APR said.
APR has made clear the only issue is they ran out of time on a very complex audit – line-by-line break-out of complex capital transactions.
John Campion, chief executive, insists that there is nothing monstrous hidden in the numbers – and Questor takes him at his word. However, the City can have a long memory and trust needs to be rebuilt. Hopefully the April 16 announcement will start to build these bridges.
There was also disappointment about the level of new orders in the first quarter. However, APR says it has a "very robust" tender pipeline, which should help resolve this issue. The company is confident it will be able to meet full-year expectations.
APR managed to release some unaudited results, which were roughly in line with expectations.
In the year to December, revenues rose 65pc to more than $209m (£132m). The company has a net cash position of $63m and it intends to propose an inaugural dividend of 10p a share.
APR is a rival to FTSE 100 player Aggreko. It was spun out of French power and engineering group Alstom in a management buy-out in 2004.
The company has an impressive list of backers, including former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who has been invested in APR since 2010 through her Albright Capital Management vehicle. Mrs Albright made an effusive statement about prospects for the business and praised its management on a visit to APR's headquarters last month.
In a world structurally short of power, APR's business model is sound. "As global energy consumption increases, APR is well-positioned to meet the energy demands of industry and business, especially in emerging markets, where reliable and affordable access to power is linked directly to economic growth, job creation and associated improvements in living standards," Mrs Albright said last month. Questor concurs.
The shares were first tipped on September 21 at £10.95, so they are down 17pc after this week's slump. Although this setback is a disappointment for investors, Questor thinks that issues will be resolved sooner rather than later. A buy rating is maintained.

With participants from across the Internet ecosystem working on
the successor to the protocol that opened the Internet to the
world, Microsoft's proposed a draft approach that extends previous
work in terms of its focus on speed and mobility. Dubbed Montenegro,
or HTTP Speed+Mobility, Microsoft's proposal "emphasizes
performance improvements and security while at the same time
accounting for the important needs of mobile devices and
applications," according to the draft document.
The IETF
approved a new charter to define HTTP 2.0 to
address the performance limitations of the original HTTP which
directs web traffic today.
Building on Google's work with its SPDY ("Speedy") protocol for
faster and more secure website loading and IETF work with WebSockets, Microsoft's approach "includes
keeping people and their apps in control of network access.
Specifically, the client remains in control over the content that
it receives from the web."
"This extends a key attribute of the existing HTTP
protocol that has served the Web well. The app or browser
is in the best position to assess what the user is currently doing
and what data is already locally available. This approach enables
apps and browsers to innovate more freely, delivering the most
relevant content to the user based on the user's actual needs,"
according to the draft proposal, an excerpt of which is posted by
Jean Paoli on Microsoft's
"interoperability@microsoft" blog.
The root of the HTTP's speed limitations is a result of it only
allowing "for a unidirectional request/response model," a
limitation that Google is addressing with SPDY, and its reliance on
"multiple TCP connections for concurrency," Microsoft notes in
Microsoft's proposal would extend Google and IETF's work in this
regard by extending it to include a focus on making Web apps
faster. "We think that apps-not just browsers-should get faster
too. More and more, apps are how people access web services, in
addition to their browser."
Making mobile better includes extending battery life, Microsoft
continues. "HTTP 2.0 can help decrease the power
consumption of network access. Mobile devices also give people a
choice of networks with different costs and bandwidth limits.
Embedded sensors and clients face similar issues. Mobile
considerations require that HTTP be network efficient while
simultaneously being sensitive to the limited power, computation,
and connectivity capabilities of the client device."

Top 6 On My Travel Bucket List
One thing I definitely want to do after I graduate with my Bachelor's is travel! To see different places, eat different foods, and learn different languages is probably the most exciting part about traveling to me. I've always liked learning about different cultures and living in Miami, which is a cultural melting pot itself, I've learned a lot about the Caribbean cultures growing up especially my dad's; now I want to learn about the places that aren't so close to home.
So while I wait and save up I decided to start a bucket list of all the places I want to go. Here are the top 6 places that I want to visit after I graduate:
1. Dubai, United Arab Emirates
2. Budapest, Hungary
3. Sydney, Australia
4. Barcelona, Spain
5. Cape Town, South Africa
6. London, England
There are other places like the Giraffe Manor in Nairobi, Kenya and Maui, Hawaii so this means I have a lot of saving and planning ahead of me.
What are some places you would like to travel to? Leave a comment below I would love to read them!
Until next time!

A hell hole built sometime in the 1960's. The schools buildings are the most decrepit thing in Decatur, AL. The student body sees themselves as high class well to do people, but in reality they are middle class or lower and will never be successful in what they desire to be. The reason these students will never be successful is their lack of work ethic and overall stupidity. Showcasing their stupidity is a group of want to be rednecks who put "Back Country Off Road" windshield stickers on their trucks. These guys think they are the coolest thing ever and think that lifting a truck 3ft off the ground makes you cool.
Student 1: Hey I go to Austin High School.

The Starz Entertainment-owned premium cable network, which to date has been better known for airing films, will dip its toe into originals with a handful of high profile projects, including two mini-series adaptations, Moby Dick and The Take. By 2012, the plan is to roll out one high profile project per quarter for its 33.1 million subscribers.
"As we strategized about how to rejuvenate the Encore brand, the strategy to add original programming to compliment our movie strategy was a big component of that," says Stephan Shelanski, executive vice president of programming for Starz Entertainment tells The Hollywood Reporter, adding, "It's going to be a small start and a small investment upfront. We're not jumping in at the level we're at at Starz channel."
The first of its offerings is Moby Dick, Tele Munchen's $25 million re-imagining of Herman Melville's classic novel starring Oscar winner William Hurt as the infamous Captain Ahab. Joining him on the two-night, three-hour international co-production, which bows August 1, is Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke (Gattaca, Training Day) as first mate Starbuck, Gillian Anderson (The X Files) as Ahab's wife, Donald Sutherland (MASH, Ordinary People) as Father Mapple and Raoul Trujillo (Apocalypto) as Queequeg. The RHI production is in participation with Tele Munchen and cooperation with Gate Filmproduktion.
Come fall, Encore will follow with the US premiere of miniseries The Take as well as documentary Method to the Madness of Jerry Lewis. The former, based on Martina Cole's best-selling crime thriller, is a four-part ITV Studios Global Entertainment production headlined by Tom Hardy (Inception, Layer Cake). The project aired across the pond in 2009, and its cast is filled out by Brian Cox (Braveheart, The Bourne Supremacy), Kierston Wareing (Luther), Charlotte Riley (Wuthering Heights) and Shaun Evan (Being Julia). The latter is a feature length doc, produced by Mansfield Avenue Productions, designed to showcase the multi-faceted career of the 85-year-old comedian, actor, director, writer, singer, professor and humanitarian.
Shelanski suggested that many of the network's projects will be international co-productions with several different entities investing rather than Starz going at it alone. The net's parent company will lose out on some of the ancillary benefits with this strategy, but, as he points out, "it helps channels like us get started in the space" -- not to mention, assemble buzzy-worthy casts like that of Dick's without breaking the bank.
Looking ahead, Starz brass is particularly excited about the potential synergies, but the brands won't be going after the same type of content. "Starz is [focused on] big, epic, adventure productions that have higher budgets and are more boundary pushing, while Encore's [efforts] will be a little more safe," says Shelanski, adding that the former goes after a 25 to 39-year-old demo while the latter looks to lure the 30 to 45-year-old set.
The news follows a late-May announcement about other upgrades to the Encore brand, including the addition of Spanish-language premium move channel Encore Espanol.

See Why Vanity's Ex Husband Just Got Sentenced To 3 Life Terms In Prison
Anthony Smith, ex-husband of the late former Vanity 6 lead singer, Denise "Vanity" Matthews, was recently convicted of murdering three men in 1999 and 2001.
Anthony was convicted in a Lancaster, Ca. court last year for the 1999 murders and kidnapping of brothers/business owners, Kevin and Ricky Nettles, and the 2001 murder of Dennis Henderson. Smith might also be re-tried in a fourth murder case for the 2008 shooting death of Maurilio Ponce, a 31-year-old auto-mechanic. That particular 2012 Ponce case ended in a mistrial after the jury was deadlocked.
The Nettles brothers' bodies were found with their heads wrapped in duct tape. Henderson was found stabbed and brutally beaten to death in the back of a rental car.
Aside from being Vanity's ex-husband, Anthony may look familiar to you because he is the former star NFL defensive end for the Oakland Raiders (from 1991-1997). After parting ways with the Raiders in 1997, he signed with the Denver Broncos before suddenly walking away from that contract and retiring from the NFL altogether. That's when life begin to spiral out of control for Anthony, and his friends and family say he had two personalities- a short tempered man who can be cold at times; and the 6'4″ 320 pound gentle giant with very polite manners.
It was during this time that Anthony and Vanity had a short marriage and an even shorter courtship. Word on the old school curb is that Vanity met Anthony, who was eight years her junior, and she actually proposed to him 3 DAYS later. Wow, it must have been love at first sight. Everything wasn't all…

Emergent Behaviour and Society
1) Extensive evidence demonstrates that emergent behaviour shapes groups of people.
2) Modern society is a group of people.
3) Therefore, emergent behaviour shapes modern society.
Emergent behaviour can be a powerful ally. However, if emergent behaviour is working against us, it can create enormous problems. Determining how society is being shaped could enable us to use emergent behaviour to solve some of the biggest problems facing modern society.
These problems include:
1) ecosystem decline
2) over population
3) wealth inequality
4) climate change
5) increasing isolation within first world countries
6) starvation in poor countries
What is Emergent Behaviour?
What does emergent behaviour look like? It is all around us. It is the way molecules interact, your body functions, and nature balances.
A simple example is flocking birds. Tracking a single bird gives no meaningful information. Watching the flock as a whole is mesmerising.
The shape of a flock of birds is determined by emergent behaviour. It can be seen by observing as big a group of birds as possible.
If you zoom in to watch a one or two birds, the pattern disappears.
Below is an example of human emergent behaviour. Note that nothing is controlling the flow of people. Each individual moves on their own path. At the group level, a smooth flow emerges.
Below is an example of people being controlled by robots -- traffic lights in this case. Note the stop/start nature of artificial control. This method requires society to pay for technology, maintenance, establish bureaucratically administered rules and enforcement in order to function.

Fair board names hall of famers, family of the year
Sandy Woods, the former CEO of the Nevada County Fairgrounds, and her husband, George, are the newest members of the Nevada County Fair Hall of Fame.
The couple has been involved with the Fair, which starts on Wednesday, Aug. 10, since they moved in 1985 to Nevada County.
Sandy started working in 1995 as the deputy manager at the Nevada County Fairgrounds and served as CEO from 2009 to 2015. She also served for 10 years on the Western Fairs Association board of directors and as its president in 2012. She was inducted in 2015 into the WFA's Hall of Fame. George, meanwhile, has worked as the head volunteer at the Fairgrounds. Both have been active exhibitors at the fair.
"The Fair is a great community asset – it's where our community comes to celebrate who we are," Sandy said. "It's where our community seeks safety when there's a disaster. It's where we come together to hold fundraisers so that we can infuse money back into our economy and assist those who may be less fortunate. There's a spirit on the Fairgrounds, which makes it a very special place."
"Sandy and George's service and dedication to the Nevada County Fair are commendable," Rea Callender, CEO of the Fairgrounds, said. "They have worked tirelessly on behalf of the Nevada County Fair, and their work has ensured that the Fairgrounds can be enjoyed by future generations."
The Woods will be inducted into the Hall of Fame at the opening day ceremony on Aug. 10.
In addition, Michelle and Brandon Warmuth have been named the 2016 Family of the Year for their volunteer efforts and participation in the Fair.
"Their participation in the livestock and still exhibit program, and their investment in the community by serving others is commendable and admirable and makes them the perfect choice for the 2016 Family of the Year," Callender said.
The Warmuth family also will be honored at the opening ceremonies.
George and Sandy Woods will be inducted into the Nevada County Fair Hall of Fame on Aug. 10, which is when this year's Fair kicks off.

"Will you marry me?" might be one of the most daunting questions you'll ever have to ask, but before you buy a ring and figure out the perfect place to propose, you may want to also consider asking another question first — to the parents. Asking for a parents' blessing for marriage is a custom that dates back hundreds of years, and as outdated (and equally daunting) as it may seem today, it's still a significant part of the engagement process for many couples and their families. In essence, demonstrating your respect for her family is a way to show how much you love her—and how serious you are about your future together.
However, the tradition of asking for a parents' blessing for marriage isn't always as simple in today's world as it was in years past. The following are some modern tips for getting their blessing to get down on one knee without stepping on any toes:
Know Your Crowd
It goes without saying that if you're asking a woman to be your bride, you should know her quite well. So you would know, for instance, whether she thinks asking for her father's blessing on the marriage is an antiquated custom that has no place in your relationship. Perhaps she'd prefer that you speak to both her father and mother or someone else entirely, such as an older brother or stepmother. Your first step should always be to ensure your girlfriend—and her family—are comfortable with the tradition.
Set the Scene
A conversation this serious should ideally be done face-to-face rather than over the phone, although sometimes this just isn't possible. Luckily, you don't have to spend big bucks on a plane ticket to do this right—save that for the engagement ring. If your location allows, let her parents know you'd like to have a word in private. This could be as simple as quietly pulling them aside after a family dinner or inviting them out for a cup of coffee. If you're limited to the phone, be sure to call at a time when they will be able to talk and, most importantly, listen. Whatever you do, don't ask for their blessing via text message—even if you do accompany it with 50 heart emojis.
Choose Your Words Wisely
Just as you're likely to think long and hard about the words you'll use to propose to your girlfriend, take some time to think about what you want to say to your in-laws-to-be. While you don't need to go in with a stiff, rehearsed speech, this isn't a situation where you'll want to completely wing it, either. Speak from the heart, but give it some thought beforehand. Just remember: you're asking for their blessing, not their permission. This is the key difference between this conversation today and this conversation a few generations ago.
Not sure what to say? Here are a few talking points to get you started:
As a bonus, you may find this conversation and its heartfelt contents to be a good dry run for your actual proposal. This may help calm your nerves when you actually do pop the question.
As nerve-racking as this conversation may be, keep in mind that the vast majority of parents will be honored that you've chosen to share your intentions with them before you propose. Joining your life with someone else's means joining her family, too, and this tradition remains a solid way to start off on the right foot.

The case for same gender couples to have the right to enter into civil unions in Colorado passed a major hurdle on Thursday night. The House Judiciary Committee listened to over three hours of testimony and eventually voted to pass the civil unions bill based on one Republican changing her vote from last year.
Rep. B.J. Nikkel, who refused to take an official stance on the bill before hearing testimony, decided to vote for the bill. She may have infuriated conservatives with her refusal to take a stand before hearing testimony, but those same conservatives may eventually thank her for setting forward a process that may get the Republican Party in Colorado past an issue that it has continued to stumble over in the past few years.
However, before the party can officially move on, and before Nikkel's vote becomes truly historic, a lot must happen in less than four business days at the State Capitol. The bill must be heard and pass two more committees and then pass the State House, if it is to get to Governor Hickenlooper's desk.
By law, the 2012 legislative session will end by midnight on Wednesday, May 9th. If the civil unions bill is going to become law, it must pass the State House before that strict deadline.
Technically, there is time to pull off the miracle. However the person running the show in the House, Speaker Frank McNulty, is in charge of the traffic lights, so to speak.
Speaker McNulty is finally in the position where he will have to decide if this bill moves forward or dies. He has been in this position all along, however he never made an official move to kill the bill. He insisted on setting the bill on the standard course and letting the official process, without his interference, determine its fate.
Now that this process has determined that the bill is on a likely path to passage, the only real hurdle would be McNulty deciding to slow down the bill with an intentional procedure.
Up until this point, McNulty could honestly say that the bill took the normal course and met the appropriate fate. He now must decide to either intentionally slow it down or let it likely get through two more committees and let it go to a vote in the House, where it would likely pass.
This ticking political clock puts Speaker McNulty in difficult position.
Since he is now the focus for the future of this bill, if he allows nature to take its course and the bill passes, social conservatives will blame and possibly target McNulty in this year's election.
But if he moves to slow the bill and stop it from passing with procedure rather than actual votes, he will become a target of Tim Gill, who has routinely spent millions to oust politicians that have worked against rights for homosexuals. Gill would also likely take aim at the precarious one vote advantage the GOP currently enjoys in the State House. If he couldn't knock off McNulty, he could very likely make him a Minority Leader.
While it may hurt his conservative street cred, McNulty's best move is to stay consistent and let the civil unions bill take its natural course, even if it ultimately means passage of the bill. As much as social conservatives hate the idea, unaffiliated voters are overwhelmingly in favor of the issue and the last thing the Republican Party needs is to continue to fight a losing battle.
Songwriter and philosopher Kenny Rogers said it best. You have to know when to hold 'em, and when to fold 'em.
Speaker Frank McNulty may not enjoy folding his hand, but by doing so, he will live to fight another day. If he stands in the way of the natural course of events with procedure or influence, he may find that he will not have any control of said procedure this time next year.
