Samsung GTs5230. A good quality product, easy to use and understand. Would be good for introducing a new touch-screen user to this type of 'phone. The 3-megapixel camera is really for quick snapshots only though and the 'phone would benefit from having a more powerful camera.
i would recomend to those mobile buyers who want a hit of touchscreen action at a budget price, the Samsung Tocco Lite S5230 brings Samsung's TouchWiz user interface and typical minimalist touchphone style into a low cost package. afterusing a familiar Samsung Tocco TouchWiz touchscreen user interface its relly great experience, bringing with it on-screen widgets and finger tap-and-swipe control.the bad thing is the Tocco Lite doesn't have high-speed 3G mobile connectivity, relying instead on quad-band GPRS/EDGE mobile data. something we've seen on higher-end touchscreen phones. Its camera, too, is a routine 3.2-megapixel, fixed focus, flashless snapper, rather than the 5- and 8-megapixel shooters of the Tocco and Tocco Ultra Edition.and it dont have a wifi feature .thats make a bad impression.It has a good-sized 3-inch screen for its touch-operated user interface, with a few dozen widget mini-applications to choose from, music and video player functions, and FM radio, plus a selection of online-based apps and social-networking options to work with. and an attreactive design. which worth buying.
I'm currently using this phone until I manage to gather the fund for a smartphone and I've been using it for the last 2 years. Honestly speaking if you want a low price mobile and are not that fussed over the state of the art smartphones, you can do a lot worse than this model.
Design wise, it's certainly attractive with a slim thickness and silver and white frame. The functional buttons are well positioned on the front of the phone and down the left and right edges. To insert the sim and sd cards is foolproof as on removing the back there are diagrams and pointers how to.
The functioning of the phone is pretty smooth with an attractive menu setup and slick touchscreen options on an approx 3.5" by 2" screen. Due to the touchscreen format however you will want to make sure the keypad lock is on before you put it in your pocket or you'll pick it back out to find the screen looking like a minefield of apps.
The quality of the mp3 player on the phone is certainly one of the selling points for me. The quality of sound is solid (providing you have samsung headphones) and the functionality is excellent.
The internet obviously isn't as developed as it is on smartphones but it still gets the job done if you want to get basic access to websites and has a user friendly layout and clear resolution.
The one thing that grinds my gears about the phone is that the picture quality on taking pictures and video is really quite abysmal. It says it's 3.2 megapixels but on taking a picture or video, the file will be shown back to me with a grainy look and faint white lines running like a grid over the shot. I can't fathom whether I damaged the lens very early on to cause this or whether it's the nature of this phone. Either way it's certainly disappointing.
This made me render the camera useless and I had to use someone else's phone to take pictures/video.
All in all, if you want a phone with solid calling quality, music playing and standard non smart phone internet access and you're not too bothered about never having a camera for use, then this phone certainly fits the bill.
I bought this phone as a stop-gap phone for me, with the intention of then passing it onto my 11 year old son for him to use after I had saved up for a smartphone. He ended up with the handset after a few days as I absolutely detested the phone from start to finish!
The phone, even when new was very slow to react to the touchscreen functions, so you end up pushing an area of the screen twice, to then find when the phone caught up with you, you had then gone onto a different screen than the one required. This is a problem my 11 year old has as well - I first thought it was just my impatience! The touchscreen is very insensitive as well - you end up thumping it to get it to react, it does work better with a fingernail, so shortnailed people and your average male user may struggle with the on screen functions.
I found the sound to be very tinny, and even with the included headphones, the sound did not really improve. The headphones, which double up as the hands free kit are very flimsy and broke within a few weeks of having them with no real use made of them.
Although I realise that this is a budget priced phone, and so it does do it it says on the tinm - make calls, text, take basic pics etc, I still would have expected more from Samsung, whose other phones that I have had, both budget and expensive have always been so much better!
This phone has been great for over the time I have had it. I have only every had one hardware problem with it and that was the battery needed changing as it wore out too quickly!
Sound: The speaker - I think - is great. It is very loud and when I play music out loud sometimes it comes out crystal clear not like some other rubbish phones that sound so crackly and just plain awful!
Screen: The screen is clear and bright however I do recommend getting a screen protector for it as it does scratch easily. One thing I would say is that even though I have mine set to the lowest brightness setting it is still very bright to look at. This has its advantages like when you are outside where it is bright you can still see the screen but at night if you look at your phone sometimes you do get briefly blinded by it. But maybe that is just me!
Touchscreen: The touchscreen element itself is not as responsive as iphones or similar smartphones but to be honest I think it just takes some getting used to as I can use it just fine.
Navigation / Menus: The navigation of the phone is easy to understand and you can drag and drop special widgets on the home screen. On unlocked versions of the phone you can remove your phone network from the screen and this is great because then you can see your background in full. This is definitely a big plus from me!
Internet: To be honest I don't bother using the internet on the phone. It does work but it is way too slow for my liking and even then the response is rather poor, not to mention it drains battery life like mad. To be honest I wouldn't recommend this phone if you want to browse the internet.
Camera: The camera is 3.5mp and this is great for a phone like this. You can have various camera effects and personally I use the "fluorescent" option as I think this makes the photos come out with much nicer colouring to them. The videoing function is not up to much and I don't really use this.
Calling/Text messaging: I never have any problems when using it to call people, I always get clear reception. However, battery life gets drained quickly when using the phone for calling. Texting is easy and works well too.
Storage: I would certainly say you need a memory card for this phone as you cannot store much at all on its internal storage. I have a 4gb memory card and it has lasted me all of this time and is nowhere near half full.
I bought this phone off a friend because my blackberry had broken. Overall I am happy with the phone but I can't wait to get my upgrade.
For the price you can't really grumble. It does all the things you expect of a phone - text, calls, internet, camera, apps. However most of these are basic - again the phone is so cheap what do you expect.
The apps are ok but there are limitations on what apps you can get and don't expect to get the latest ones. The Facebook application works ok, you can view your Facebook wall, your friends posts, messages, etc.
One thing that is starting to annoy me however is the touch screen when it comes to texting. A lot of the time it works fine but often, for reasons I am not aware, it plays up and when you try to text you end up with a load of gibberish and have to try again.
The alarm works great, gets me up for university.
No issue with the calls.
The camera does its job - but is not great quality and there is no flash.
I like how you can drag widgets onto the main scream and flick between them.
Overall: value for money but if like me you are used to a more recent model I would advise spending more on a better phone.
Phone is good for it's price. Auto-focus on camera will be a good option but the phone will then cost more. I am satisfied with it. But when browsing internet for a long time phone automatically restarts, laggy when having large amount of pictures stored on your mobile phone.
I'm the sort of person who really doesn't mind what phone they have, as long as I can phone text and play a few games, and it looks pretty decent. I really begrudge paying a lot of money for something which is going to be outdated within months! So I got this phone on contract, and it also came with a fee Sony TV (deal from phones 4 u) so I was quite happy. The phone looks good and to be honest I was more interested in the free TV.
I have had the phone for 12 months now and to be honest it is just annoying me. It started off great and I had no problems. The systems are easy to use, the contract was good, appearance is nice and sleek, so whether it has just passed its sell by, or whether I have used much better phones belonging to other people, and now compare them I don't know!
I'm guessing that is the whole point really, that most people, after a year would be upgrading so maybe it doesn't matter. For those of us though that don't mind, this is a good phone at a good price, but just beware it does get annoying!
The first thing really was problems witht the touch screen. I have now resorted to using the very tip of my nail to touch it, as it opens up a menu on the other side of the screen when I just use my finger! Also, it has slowed right down, and can take a few seconds to catch up. Meaning you end up doing pressing on something a few times as you think it hasn't worked, and then the phone gets mad with you! Or you end up calling somebody when all you wanted to do was update their info or something! And finally, and possibly the most annoying thing is the back cover. I have a freind who has had this phone a while by the time I got mine and I noticed her back cover was stuck on with sellotape. I just ignored it and thought maybe it was just a dodgy model or had been dropped, but no, mine is now exactly the same.
All you have to do is pull the phone out of a little pocket in the side of your handbag and the back cover falls off, then the battery comes out. Really not ideal when someone is trying to phone you. As it turns out, my back cover is now down a drain somewhere because of this.
So in general, it has been a good phone, but I wouldn't suggest this one if you intend to keep it for mopre than 12 months.
I needed to replace my previous phone immediately as it had completely died but I couldn't get a new one through my contract, so I was looking for a nice and simple phone similar to my old one, except I'd never had a touchscreen phone before therefore I thought I'd try this one out.
The interface is fairly easy to use and follow but some features are hidden under countless sub-categories such as blutooth and there are some features stored where you wouldn't expect them to be. The main menu is quite good because you can personalise it with symbols from the widget section on the left hand side of the screen where you can personalise various different links such as Facebook and the local weather. Having not had a touchscreen phone previously I didn't know what to expect but it can be frustrating at times because it doesn't work the way I'd want it to. I often find myself accidentally pressing the wrong feature or button on the screen as it does take some getting used to. Scrolling can be difficult as there isn't a real easy method of scrolling quickly, for example if you're wanting to listen to music for an artist under 'S' you'd have to scroll all the way down to the 'S' section because there is no real easy way of a shortcut. Six months down the line I'm still finding it difficult but once you get used to it, it can work to your advantage. The manual is useful but doesn't make much sense apart from the basics really.
Aside from the touchscreen difficulties, I find it relatively easy to use and navigate bar a few features hidden in odd places. Its basic features such as text and calling are satisfactory, and it's just a case of getting used to how everything works. It's generally quite reliable, with a good battery life and I rarely have to charge it. Mine cost me £80 but I'm using it with a contract SIM card. For what it is and how it works I think £80 is a decent price for anyone who's happy with how to operate it. On Pay as You go the going rate on the internet seems to be around the £65-£80 mark.
The main frustrating aspect of this phone is its tendency to freeze for about 20-30 seconds at a time and does get annoying. I know of two others with exactly the same phone who experience the same problem but to a lesser extent. I wouldn't highly recommend this phone to anyone in particular, there are better phones of this type on the market for sure. I am definitely looking to upgrade when my contract runs out later this year as I can't really deal with the slow processing.
I have now had the Samsung GT s5230 now for over 12 months and I love it. At first using the touch screen was a little scary, always over scrolling when in the phone book section but I soon got use to it. The menu is clear and very easy to use.
Owning and using this phone has changed my life so much. i am able to stay in touch with my friends and family so easily either by texting or going on Facebook and checking out what is going on while out and about. I also love the fake call button on the phone, I feel so much safer when out at night.
I have found a few problems with this phone but nothing serious. The first one is that when i go to retrieve a text message I have to keep touching the screen several times before the message opens up, in which case I have to then go into settings and calibrate the phone, which is very simple to do but so annoying.
You also hear of phones being dust proof well I find especially being a female, the screen will get very dirty with face make up and I am constantly cleaning the screen
If you like to take photographs with your camera, even though this phone does give out good pictures you do need a steady hand as the picture will come out all blurred otherwise, and you also need good lighting as well.
I bought this phone from tesco because they gave me £40 off for shopping over £100 with them. When I first got it I saw that the camera was very good and the sound volume is very high. It is very easy to damage and sometimes the touch screen jams and you have to wait until the battery runs out until you can use it. Another thing that is very annoying with the phone is that when you are seeing a photo and you tilt the phone it automatically moves on the photo. Also when you text the dictionary always corrects me into a spelling that's wrong. I still like the phone as it is fantastic value for money and it has a great camera and excellent graphics. Also when I got the phone it only had 1 game on. The dice game which is when you shake the phone the dice shakes. The last thing I will say about this Phone is that I really like the contacts viewing thing where it has their picture of the contact and also his details and you can scroll however all the bad points of this phone will make me give it a dissaponting mark. I would recommend that you buy another phone.
After having my old phone for over 4 years, (it had served me well) I decided to purchase a touch screen I couldn't afford the more popular choices but found the Samsung GTs5230 to be more reasonably priced as with most of purchases I decided not to read the instructions first and try to get acquainted with my new phone by playing with it. I cant lie and say the touch screen was easy to use straight away it wasn't and I found scrolling up down difficult as I inadvertently dialled people by mistake however I did get use to it. The Camera function of this phone are a little disappointing and pictures often came out a little blurry, a definite steady hand is required to make the most of it. The menu bar is simple and easy and I had no difficulty with downloading or using the internet on this. It has been a wrench letting go of my old phone but with a bit of patience and a lot of playing this phone has now become an extension to my arm, If you are new to the new wave of touch screen technology as I was then all I can say is patience is the key and eventually you will wonder why you hadn't purchased it sooner.
I have been a user of Samsung phones for many years and have always found them pretty easy to use and reliable. with this model however i was very happy with it for the first 6 months but then found that if the phone was in my bag or pocket it would call random numbers from the start of my phone book even though the phone was locked, I have had to send many apology texts for this reason! recently the phone has taken to switching it's self off for no reason, until now when the screen has completely frozen, won't respond to touch and I am unable to access any information, numbers, texts or photos that are in there which i would like to see again.
I have possessed this mobile phone for around 30 days now, I'm relatively happy with it's overall performance. I'm fairly demanding of my mobile phones and try to look to obtain the most bang for my buck. Using the Tocco Lite I can truthfully say that it's well worth the money.
The only real problem which i have to date is a problem it has using its blue-tooth. I personally use a hands-free blue-tooth ear piece that also offers earphones with it the Samsung WEP870, excellent little device, the quality of sound is fantastic. The issue which i discovered immediately is that when you switch off the MP3 player, unless you'll use the headpiece, you definitely must switch off the blue-tooth on the mobile phone since it will consume the battery inside hours.
Once i did it the very first time, the phone glitched. Despite the fact that the blue-tooth icon vanished on screen, the mobile phone's battery carried on to drain at a rate of one bar in about 2 hours. After attempting a couple of things I eventually found a conclusion that the only method to switch off your blue-tooth once you used it with MP3 player is to reboot the phone totally. That of-course resets the arrangement of the gizmos(a.k.a. apps for smart phones) and every other system setting you have changed.
Apart from that one small problem, the mobile phone functions pretty well. Oh, one more thing, it works fairly slowly if you're attempting to make use of other things with the MP3 player functioning.

Pastrana's No. 60 gets X Games paint scheme
X Games medalist Travis Pastrana's No. 60 Roush Fenway Racing Mustang will have an X Games Los Angeles paint scheme for the NASCAR Nationwide races at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Iowa Speedway.
"X Games are the single biggest action sports event in the world," Pastrana, a 17-time medal winner, said in a release. "I've been able to make a career out of having fun and pushing the limits because of the platform provided by this event. I love everything about it."
Beside promoting X Games Los Angeles, which will be held Aug. 1-4, the paint scheme highlights the different races Pastrana will be competing in the next few weeks. After the July 27 NNS race in Indianapolis and the Aug. 3 race in Iowa, he will compete in the Ford RallyCross event Aug. 4 at X Games L.A. in Irwindale, Calif. (in a Dodge Dart).
"This is a huge opportunity for me to be able to bring some eyes from NASCAR over to the X Games and vice versa," Pastrana said. "It's never easy to compete and be competitive in more than one discipline, but I've made a career out of doing that. No matter what, that weekend will be a lot of fun. I haven't won an event yet this year and it's a good time to turn the season around."
Pastrana, 29, gained fame and fortune as a Moto X competitor and Rally driver at X Games, winning 11 gold medals. This season, however, he made driving an NNS schedule his top priority. He competes in the Global Rallycross Championship when his NNS schedule allows, and has raced at one of the three X Games RallyCross events this year, finishing seventh in April at Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil.
Pastrana has had mixed results this year in Nationwide competition. He's in 14th place, 205 points behind overall leader Regan Smith, heading into the 18th race of the season Sunday at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Ill. Pastrana had the pole for the May 4 Talladega Superspeedway race, and his ninth-place finish on April 26 at Richmond International Raceway is his best so far in his brief career.
"NASCAR and the X Games have a lot that cross over, but they are still worlds apart," Pastrana said. "So far I've shown the action sports community how difficult NASCAR truly is, but my goal is to show the NASCAR community how talented and determined action sports athletes can be. There will be a lot of pressure on me from the action sports side when I roll onto the track with this paint scheme, but I usually thrive under pressure."
The Indianapolis NNS race airs at 4:30 p.m. ET July 27 on ESPN. The Iowa race airs at 8 p.m. ET Aug. 3 on ESPN2, and X Games RallyCross airs at 5 p.m. ET Aug. 4 on ESPN.

• The road team won each of two meetings between the teams last year. The Rapids have defeated the Galaxy on each of their last two trips to The Home Depot Center.
• LA's win in Denver last year was the Galaxy's first in a league match there since 2002. But the Galaxy did win the 2005 Western Conference Championship at Mile High Stadium.
• Coaches record: Gary Smith vs. LA: P5 W2 L2 D1 ... Bruce Arena vs. COL: P16 W9 L5 D2
The Colorado Rapids put an end to their consecutive draw streak in dramatic fashion, getting a stoppage-time goal for a 1-0 win against the Portland Timbers on Saturday evening at Jeld-Wen Field. The Rapids have 22 points from 15 games, sitting in a tie for third place in the Western Conference.
• The Rapids snatched the late winner in stoppage time. Jamie Smith served in a set piece from the left, and Timbers goalkeeper Troy Perkins stopped two attempts from close range from the resulting melee. But the ball bounced back to Drew Moor and he stabbed it home from the heart of the area.
• Rapids head coach Gary Smith made two changes to the team that reached a 1-1 tie with Philadelphia Union at Dick's Sporting Goods Park. Scott Palguta came in at fullback for Anthony Wallace, and Caleb Folan replaced Andre Akpan.
• COLORADO RAPIDS (4-4-2): Matt Pickens - Kosuke Kimura, Drew Moor, Tyrone Marshall, Scott Palguta - Wells Thompson, Pablo Mastroeni, Jeff Larentowicz, Jamie Smith - Conor Casey (Quincy Amarikwa 75), Caleb Folan.
• The Rapids ended their consecutive draw streak at six just in the nick of time in the win at Portland. The six straight with a draw was the most ever in a single MLS season, and equaled the mark set by San Jose over the conclusion of the 2004 season and the start of 2005.
• "Of course drawing six games on the spin — especially with some home games in there — is something we'd have like to take more advantage of," said Gary Smith. "But all in all, I think we've performed well, given some tough circumstances."
• The Rapids return home trying now to reverse a five-game winless run in Commerce City. Colorado last won at home April 3, vs. D.C. United.
• "We hate giving away points at home. A draw on the road you're OK with, depending on how the game goes," said Drew Moor. "Six straight ties hardly ever happens, but it's always nice to get three points, especially on the road."
• The win in Portland did extend the club's unbeaten streak to nine games, a club record, passing the previous of mark of eight set April 25 — June 24, 2009. The Rapids are also unbeaten in five in a row on the road, also a club record.
• "We've had moments in some of our home games where we've gone in front and with a little bit more composure we might have just held onto that lead but, all in all, of course, I'm very, very pleased we can keep our unbeaten run going and add a win to that now," Smith said.
• Moor's goal was his second of the season, both scored from free kicks, after also netting May 14 vs. D.C. United. Five of Colorado's last eight goals have come from dead ball situations — four from free kicks and one from the penalty spot.
• "Fortunately for us we found a way, from a wonderful delivery, to get onto some second-phase ball and grab the three points," said Smith.
The LA Galaxy extended their unbeaten streak to eight games, but not the way they wanted, falling into a late 2-2 draw with Toronto FC on Saturday at The Home Depot Center. The Galaxy have 31 points from 17 games on the season, leading the Western Conference.
• The Galaxy opened the scoring after just two minutes. Freed all alone in the TFC half, Miguel LÛpez slipped a pass to the right side of the box, where an unmarked Chris Birchall raced in fire it home off TFC goalkeeper Stefan Frei.
• But Toronto FC pulled even in the 68th minute. Danleigh Borman placed a perfect cross to the front of the goal from the left and Alan Gordon smashed a header past Josh Saunders.
• As the game turned into stoppage time, from a scramble in the area, a blocked shot deflected up into the air and Juan Pablo Angel stepped into a full-blooded drive from the heart of the box that got through the bodies in the box and into the goal.
• Yet TFC wasn't done. A long ball into the box was headed by Galaxy defender A.J. DeLaGarza -- but fell right to Gordon, and he hit a first-time volley into the upper right corner of the goal to salvage a point for the Canadians.
• Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena made two changes to the team that played to a scoreless draw with D.C. United at The Home Depot Center. Michael Stephens and Juan Pablo Angel came into the side, for Juninho and Mike Magee.
• LA GALAXY (4-1-3-2): Josh Saunders - Sean Franklin, Omar Gonzalez, A.J. DeLaGarza, Todd Dunivant - David Beckham - Chris Birchall, Miguel Lopez (Paolo Cardozo 82), Michael Stephens (Bryan Jordan 82) - Juan Pablo Angel, Chad Barrett (Mike Magee 71).
• The Galaxy saw their shutout streak come to an end at 479 minutes, the second-longest in MLS this season (behind FC Dallas' 521 minutes) and the second-longest in club history, after a 521-minute stretch from the end of 2009 and the start of 2010.
• "We still need to sharpen some things up. We talked about it the whole year that's probably like one of the last things that we need, the final third, to make smart passes," said Sean Franklin. "I think if we focus on it we will be fine for the rest of the season."
• The Galaxy have allowed four goals in the final 10 minutes of games that have cost them points. LA has given up late goals at D.C. United, at FC Dallas, at Philadelphia and vs. Toronto FC, costing the team seven possible points.
• "That is very uncharacteristic of us, but it has been a little bit too characteristic of us this year. It was a great finish, but those kinds of things happen to you when you do not really play all that well," said fullback Todd Dunivant. "... It is two games in a row where we kind of let ourselves down and those kind of plays go against you when you are not playing at your best."
• Birchall's goal was his first for the club in league play. The only other time he'd hit the back of the net since joining the team in 2009 was in a preseason friendly against Puntarenas of Costa Rica.
• "It's been a long time coming," he said. "The guys have been giving me a little stick, but a few people tonight said I'd get my goal."
• The Galaxy had a different look in midfield with David Beckham playing behind Miguel Lopez in the center of the park, but Beckham admitted the pair was "getting in each other's ways at times."
• "We have got depth in the squad where different players can play in different formations. We are probably still trying to find out what is our best formation. We have lost Juninho and Landon tonight, two influential players, but we have got good players to fill in," said Birchall. "We passed it around but we gave it away a bit too much in positions where we did not want to."
• Juan Pablo Angel returned to the lineup after missing two games to injury and scored his third goal of the season.
• "Those goals are very important, especially that late in the game. I thought it was the winning goal, so meant a lot," Angel said. "It was a very tight game, we didn't have anything else going and then that freak chance went in and I was very happy, very excited like anybody else on the field. But, unfortunately it wasn't enough."

If Renesmee were into things like TV and music (doubt the 1st one) then what do you think she'd like?
For television, I can't see her watching reality shows or anything like that, but maybe shows on the History Channel/Travel Channel/Discovery Channel. Just so she'd gain more knowledge.
As for music, maybe like The Fray, Anberlin, Meg & Dia, Cartel, Kris Allen, maybe even Automatic Loveletter.

TIAG 8630 - Literary Translation
This course is meant to provide the interested student with a practical and theoretical base for approaching the translation of literary texts (those in which style is as important as meaning).
The course will be a combination of lecture, discussion, and translation workshop. A number of readings will be required for discussion in class; several exercises meant to reinforce practical and theoretical points raised in class will also be assigned. Finally, each student will be required to translate a literary text, which will be discussed in class in a workshop fashion. The student will also be expected to read the work of his/her classmates and be prepared to comment on them.
Fall 2016 - MIIS, Fall 2017 - MIIS
TICH 8511 - Intro Written Trans to English
Introduces students to the basic theory and practice of translation, both written and sight. Students will learn to apply text analysis, text typology, and contrastive analysis of their working languages to identify, analyze, and resolve translation problems while independently developing an efficient and rational approach to the process of translation. The appropriate application of electronic translation tools will also be introduced. Fundamental translation theory will be emphasized at the beginning of the course and will be conveyed in the form of assigned readings, lectures, class discussions, and independent research. In addition, course assignments will include practice and graded exercises in sight and written translation, utilizing authentic texts drawn from an extensive variety of text categories that include, but are not limited to, current events, general political economy, general legal documents, and scientific and technical topics for general audiences. As the term progresses, student time and effort will increasingly be spent on the preparation and evaluation of written translation assignments. Students will be expected to take at least one midterm exam and one final exam, to be assigned at the discretion of the instructor(s) of record.
Fall 2016 - MIIS, Fall 2017 - MIIS
TICH 8521 - Intrm Written Trans to English ▹
Builds on the theoretical and practical foundation laid in Introduction to Translation and introduces the translation of specialized subject matter. Depending upon the language program in which they are enrolled, students will be expected to acquire and demonstrate basic proficiency in the sight and written translation of either commercial and economic texts, legal texts, or scientific and technical texts. The amount of emphasis accorded to a particular topic will depend on the specific professional requirements of each language program. Course assignments will include readings, research, presentations, practice and graded exercises in sight translation, and practice and graded written translation assignments, including exercises in speed translation. Students will also be expected to take at least one midterm and one final exam. The frequency, nature, and structure of course assignments and examinations are largely at the discretion of the instructor(s) of record.
Prerequisite: Introduction to Translation or equivalent background.
Spring 2017 - MIIS, Spring 2018 - MIIS
TICH 8631 - Adv Translation I into English
This is the first of two complementary courses designed to bring translation knowledge and skills up to the level that would be required of someone working in a professional translation environment. Students will be expected to apply the knowledge and skills acquired during the first-year translation courses to produce translations that meet high standards for content, form, and presentation. A great deal of attention is given to subject matter knowledge and research, precision in text analysis and writing, and the appropriate application of translation technology. Some programs emphasize scientific and technical topics in this course, but others give considerable attention to commercial, economic, legal, and political texts, many of which have a technical component. The frequency, nature, and structure of course assignments and examinations are at the discretion of the instructor(s) of record. Students will, however, be expected to take at least one midterm exam and one final exam.
Prerequisite: 2nd-year student in good standing or equivalent background.
Fall 2016 - MIIS, Fall 2017 - MIIS
TICH 8641 - Advanced Trans II to English ▹
This course is the counterpart to Advanced Translation I. Students are expected to translate texts of considerable difficulty and complexity and to cope with the types of operational challenges that are likely to be encountered in professional translation settings, such as working in teams or coping with multiple technologies. Emphasis is on particular text categories and subject-matter knowledge that are pertinent to current market demand for the specific language combination and direction in which the course is being taught. The frequency, nature, and structure of course assignments are at the discretion of the instructor(s) of record, but will include projects that simulate, as closely as possible, the professional translation environment, as well as at least one midterm and one final exam.
Prerequisite: Advanced Translation I or similar background.

William SouthAge: 45-54Gender: male2 Stars Out Of 5Disappointed in this BibleDecember 17, 2014William SouthAge: 45-54Gender: maleThis review was written for KJV Reference, Imitation Leather Navy Blue.I guess for the price I should be okay with it, but to me it seemed quite cheap. The cover is the same quality that you get as a reward Bible at the dollar store. If I had known the cover would have been so cheap feeling, I would have spent a little more money to get something nicer. It is fine for a study Bible, but not for carrying to church in my opinion.
Randy A BrownTNAge: 35-44Gender: male4 Stars Out Of 5Awesome features at a great priceFebruary 10, 2014Randy A BrownTNAge: 35-44Gender: maleQuality: 4Value: 5Meets Expectations: 4This review was written for KJV Reference, bonded navy, indexed.Cover and Binding
The cover I chose for review is navy bonded leather. I rarely get my hands on anything navy and it's nice to see something different. I love the color. It's a very dark blue with silver highlighting and gilting. There is a silver line that traces around the text-block to further highlight the silver on the blue. The liner feels like vinyl. At first I wasn't sure that it was sewn, but then I found threads in the maps' section. It will take a while to break in the bonded leather before it will lay flat. Once it does it will have no trouble staying open in Genesis.
Paper and Print
The paper feels like the same paper I've seen in other Zondervan Bibles. It's thin (making this a slim-line) but it's also opaque enough to not be distracting. I haven't tried writing in it, but I think this would be good paper for writing.
The font is 7.2 with around an 8-point leading (but I'm just a guessing about the leading). There are no pronunciation marks. This keeps the text clean and easy to read. The print quality is consistent throughout.
The red-letter is about a medium shade of red. The red-letter goes all the way through Revelation (like any red-letter Bible should in my opinion).
References and Translation Notes
There are over 45,000 center-column references. There are 7 references for Genesis 1:1. They are keyed to the text by letters in italics. Chapter and verse numbers are printed in the center-column and the keys are printed under the verse it is keyed to. This is my favorite method for printing center-column references.
Translation notes appear at the bottom of the page under the right-side column. They are also keyed to the text with letters, but instead of italic they are standard and printed in bold. It is easy to tell them apart from the references. Translation notes show alternate renderings in Hebrew, Greek, Septuagint, etc., show clarity for words that may have changed meanings (or similar), show alternate names for people and the verses that use the alternate name. There are lots of notes throughout the text. They are very informative and help make this a great Bible for study.
Book Introductions
Book introductions are a succinct paragraph that appears just before the text of the book. They include insights about the setting, author, history, culture, purpose, facts, etc. They often give events with their verses, creating a simple outline of the book.
Section Headings
It's hard to find section heading's in a KJV that's not a study Bible. I like the addition of section headings because it breaks the text up, making it easier to read and find what you're looking for. There are a lot of them, but they're not overdone. They're pointed in an italic font that's the same size and boldness of the Biblical text. They're helpful and easy to use, but at the same time they're easy to ignore if you just want to read the text.
This edition contains a thumb-index. It's printed as black text on silver and looks great against the silver gilting. Each tab has 3 book names. Books that contain multiple parts (1 and 2 Kings, 1 and 2 Chronicles, etc.) are combined. This means a tab might only have 3 book names, but could refer to more than 3 books, making some tabs more difficult to use than others.
The concordance is 46 pages. It is presented in 2 columns per page. It isn't a large concordance, there are 12 entries for "God", but is covers the basics well. It is still good for common searches and between the concordance and the references you'll find what you need.
There are 8 pages of maps. Maps are in full color and printed on thick paper. They are labeled better than average and are easy to use. I would like to see an index to maps, but it is less needed than in other Bibles due to the notes and labels.
There are a lot of features in this Bible. It's the perfect size for carry and reading. It has great tools for study, witnessing, teaching, etc. I highly recommend The Zondervan King James Reference Bible for anyone wanting a good Bible on a budget without sacrificing features.
Zondervan provided this Bible free for review. I was not required to give a positive review- only an honest review.

There's a previous thread here: "What is the deathless" which may be of interest:nowheat wrote:lyndon, there are two kinds of "don't believe in rebirth". The kind you are referring to is what is loosely called atheism even in Buddhist circles where God has no part to play: an active *disbelief* in rebirth. The other kind is one who *neither believes nor disbelieves". For them, there is the deathless as you are taking it if there is rebirth, and if there is not there is not. But neither case matters (as Craig often argues if I understand him, though he doesn't put it the way I do) because there is the state the Buddha described of living a life with no perception that there is a self that dies -- and that is, in that sense, a deathless state.lyndon taylor wrote:Actually if you don't believe in rebirth, there is no deathless, rather upon death there is only totally dead, not deathless. You can't have it both ways, if there is no rebirth, Nibbana ends completely at death, the end, zippo, are you comfortable with that?

BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. – Players, coaches and team staff throughout MLS reacted to Chicago Fire striker Brian McBride's retirement on Friday with equal amounts of praise for one of the most accomplished players in US history.
"I don't think I've ever heard anybody say a bad word about Brian, and I've known him since 2001," Fire midfielder John Thorrington said. "People use the word 'honest' in a lot of different ways, but I think he's a very honest player. He always gave you everything he had. … He's just very brave and a very honest player."
READ: McBride announces retirement after 2010 season
Fire technical director Frank Klopas – who helped bring McBride to Chicago after the striker's days with Fulham ended in May 2008 – called McBride's career "truly fantastic" and said that he would "be missed by any organization that he touched."
"The respect he has from fellow teammates and coaches in the English Premier League speaks volumes," Klopas said. "I think he will be remembered as one of the best strikers in US history."
LA Galaxy star Landon Donovan – who teamed with McBride during both the 2002 and 2006 World Cups – cited McBride's legendary work ethic ahead of the Galaxy's clash against Chicago on Saturday, which could be the duo's last time on the field together.
"When you spend time with him in a camp or on the team, you realize that everyday he's ready to do his job," Donovan said. "And that seems like something you would take for granted, but a lot of young kids these days don't.
"It's nice to have someone to look up to in that way and follow, and he's always been that way from Day 1."
Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena – who coached McBride with the US team in 2002 and 2006 and will coach against him Saturday night – reflected fondly on perhaps McBride's signature moment, when he suffered a nasty gash to his face but played on during the Americans' 1-1 draw against Italy in the group stage of the 2006 World Cup.
"He was cut and he played 90 minutes, and he played an unbelievable role in allowing the US to get the point against Italy," Arena said. "In that game, he was a warrior."
Added Donovan: "It's hard not to think back to the Italy game in 2006, when he got gashed open. You assumed when you saw him go off the field, 'Alright, he's done, we gotta get a sub on the field.' And as we played a few more minutes, we look over and he's bandaged up like the gladiator coming back on the field. That's how Brian was. Nothing really slowed him down."
Colorado Rapids defender Pablo Mastroeni – who played alongside McBride during the 2002 and 2006 World Cups – said McBride "paved the way" after he was taken first overall by the Columbus Crew in the league's first-ever draft in 1996.
"He's been a pioneer, but not only a pioneer in being the first player, but for playing exemplary soccer on the field and being a class act off the field," Mastroeni said. "He's definitely a great friend to have."
Said Rapids forward Conor Casey: "He was a big influence on me. He was the forward that I watched growing up, really, in America. I definitely took a lot from watching him."
Added Arena: "I'm both happy and saddened for Brian. I'm happy because I know he's had a fabulous career and he can't accomplish a whole lot more. I'm sad because I'm going to miss him on the field."
One Fire player who McBride had a particularly profound effect on is forward Collins John. John and McBride first became teammates in 2004, when John – then 18 – joined the then 32-year-old McBride at Fulham.
The two became close during their time at Craven Cottage, where they were often paired together up top. Their Premier League partnership, which lasted from 2004 to 2007, was at its best during the 2005-06 campaign, when they combined to score 21 league goals.
"We played a lot of games together at Fulham," John said. "There was a great combination between him and me. And of course, when that happens, you have a little click together, and that was a big thing when I was 18 years old."
John, who was reunited with McBride when he signed with Chicago in January, said that he's sad to see his longtime teammate call it quits.
"He's a great guy," John said. "I remember the first day when I saw him in the dressing room when I came to the Fire, it was a big hug because I missed him. I'm still learning off the way he plays and the advice he gives, so it's a big [loss], but you have to respect his decision. He's had a great career and hopefully I can do the same that he has done."
John expressed his desire to send McBride off with an MLS Cup – one trophy the American has never won during his illustrious career.
"I don't want to be too loud about this, but I think he's never won a championship," John said. "So that would be a big thing. I think tears might come if that happens."

The Boars Head CarolJason Krug - Beckenhorst Press
It's the sound of the Medieval procession! ĀThis ancient carol is merry enough on its own, but with the sounds of malleted handbells, hand drum, tambourine and suspended cymbal, it is transformed into a tableau of color and flair for the holidays! ĀDiatonic throughout with just a couple chromatics, it is fun to prepare, rhythmically interesting and extremely satisfying when the ensemble arrives at the final measure!

(CNN) — President Barack Obama took his wife, Michelle, out for dinner on her 49th birthday Thursday.
The couple dined at Cafe Milano, an upscale Italian restaurant in the Washington neighborhood of Georgetown.
The first couple was dining with friends, a White House official said.
Last year, they celebrated the first lady's birthday at the steak house BLT, which sits just blocks from the White House.
Earlier in the day, the president met with the staff of the Presidential Inaugural Committee and thanked them for their efforts toward this weekend's ceremonies, a White House official said.
Michelle Obama drew attention on Thursday when her office posted online a photo of her new haircut, which includes new bangs.

DOVER - A 43-year-old man told Pope County Sheriff's Deputy Chad Maness that a fire on New Three Knob Mountain Road was thought to be arson.
According to a report, Maness responded to a structure fire around the 16000 block of Highway 7 North shortly after midnight Thursday. The Martin Township Rural Fire Department also responded to the fire at No. 66 New Three Knob Mountain Road.
A firefighter informed Maness to whom the house belonged. The complainant stated he had evicted a 43-year-old man from the residence in January and that he believed the man may have set the fire. The complainant was instructed the fire would be investigated by the responding department, then state investigators if arson was suspected.
Meth seized
CLARKSVILLE - Arkansas State Police were responsible for the seizure of approximately seven pounds of "ice" methamphetamine during a traffic stop on Interstate 40 March 2.
According to reports, a 32-year-old Phoenix man was stopped by Sgt. Charles Westerman for having a a partially obscured license plate. The crystalized form of methamphetamine was discovered behind the air bag of the vehicle's dashboard.
Circuit Judge John Patterson set the man's bond at $100,000 during a March 4 bond hearing in Johnson County. He faces a felony count of possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine) with intent to deliver.
More 'ice' found
CLARKSVILLE - Police officers and agents with the Fifth Judicial District Drug Task Force arrested a 27-year-old woman here and seized a large amount of "ice" methamphetamine.
Reports indicate bond was set at $25,000 by Circuit Judge John Patterson. The woman faces felony charges of possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine) with intent to deliver and delivery of a controlled substance (methamphetamine).
Clarksville Police Sgt. Greg Donaldson of the department's Criminal Investigation Division (CID) called the quantity of ice "a large amount."
"The chief of police has instructed me that this is a major problem in Clarksville," Donaldson said. "The Clarksville Police Department will continue to devote its assets to the solving of the problem."

"the definition of insanity is the whole world telling you you're dead wrong, when you couldn't be more right."
"None of us are sane; none of us know sanity. We only have the audacity, to think that we are sane. Real beasts are sane. They have chosen to see the World for what it really is; a World filled with predators and hypocrites; hypocrites posing as civilized prey. Wolves in sheep's clothing, if you ask me. Wolves in sheep's clothing; only posing as civilized prey."
"The world we see that seems so insane is the result of a belief system that is not working. To perceive the world differently, we must be willing to change our belief system, let the past slip away, expand our sense of now, and dissolve the fear in our minds."

RobMax usually has good recommendations. His opinion is one that I really respect around here.
The book I most recently did read (not all at once, just a little bit each time): the King James Bible. I used to just use my iPad app but somehow I enjoy reading the actual book more.
Now that will be interesting to read after this! Was the trilogy good?
Finished the first compendium of The Walking Dead. Moved on to the second now, but I'm not savouring this one. I've blown through half of it today.
I'm currently proofreading novels by a couple of friends of mine and having a great time. I hope to see both of them published in the near future.
I just finished rereading The Tell-Tale Heart by Poe. I can't get enough of Edgar.
I also finished the Bogart biography so today I started reading volume four of Philip K. Dick's short stories.
I haven't watched any of the series, but I'm halfway through the fourth book on the Kindle now. I've taken an occasional week-long break from the books, but overall I'm enjoying them. I love to lose myself in historical fantasy novels.
Also on the bedside table is Bully for Brontosaurus by Steven Jay Gould. An old anthropology professor had Gould's Ever Since Darwin as mandatory reading, and I've been a Gould fan ever since. I don't read his books in one go, but read an essay or two when the mood hits.
Over the past few days I've also read the two DS9 books The Left Hand of Destiny by J.G. Hertzler and Jeffrey Lang, Hertzler being the actor who played Martok (should I admit I didn't recognise the name when I purchased the books? Probably not ). I've enjoyed them. The story wasn't brilliant, but the characterisations were good, the writing style flowed, and it was good for a few laughs as well. Definitely books I'm keeping to reread.
I'm reading a technical manual in preparation for a professional certification exam.
Stormwater management, just riveting stuff...
Star Trek Allegiance in Exile (for people wary of another TOS standalone set in the 5 year mission this may get you to read it...it made me buy it when I wasn't planning on it)
Spoiler: Major Spoiler
Kirk makes first contact with the Bajorans
Ah, I miss Steven Jay Gould. I used to subscribe to Natural History just for his column. And I absolutely love his book on the Burgess Shale (even if it is a little outdated now, at least in terms of the Hallucigenia).
Gould's Structure of Evolutionary Theory is well worth the effort to read. I recommend it highly, especially since so much popularization comes from the evolutionary psychology perspective.
Last night I finished Ned Wynkoop and the Lonely Road from Sand Creek. Excellent book about a truly compassionate army officer who was sympathetic to the plight of the Plains Indians (especially the Southern Cheyenne and the Arapaho) and who did what he could to get the army and the US government to take a humanitarian stance towards the Indians. His stand cost him dearly in terms of his career and at times it endangered his life.
I am almost finished The Library by Zoran Zivkovic. Six short stories with book/library themes. I especially like the story about a man who kept finding book after book mysteriously appearing in his letterbox.
I have just started The Spanish Helmet by Greg Scowen. An amateur archeologist working in New Zealand digs up a old Spanish helmet. 5 centuries before Spanish explorer Francisco de Hoces and his ship were ost in the Pacific after being separated from the rest of fleet. Could this helmet have belonged to someone from his ship?
I found all three books to be excellent. Rob's writing style is not complex, but his ideas are very good, and I find his storytelling compelling. The WWW trilogy also has some interesting observations on autism - Rob always does a lot of research for his novels, and it shows.
(I may be biased... Rob and I have been friends for about 25 years. )
Prince of Thieves, the novel The Town was based on.
I have just finished No One Writes to the Colonel and other Stories by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. It is tthe first book of his I have read and I enjoyed it so much that I will read one of his novels later in the year most likely 100 Years of Solitude or maybe Love in the Time of Cholera.
I am currently reading Lost Classics: Writers on Books Loved and Lost, Overlooked, Under-read, Unavailable, Stolen, Extinct, or Otherwise Out of Commission. However I have found that, in the days of the internet and Kindle, the majority of these books are no longer as hard to get. I think I will end up buying 6-10 books that are mentioned in this book.
Right-ho, Jeeves

Hi there, I have an older home with the potential (I think) for some fun home automation/remote control.
Here is the scenario: My exterior lights are controlled by GE low voltage controls. GE provides this product to the Commercial world, but I have not been able to find what I want. They basically are providing spiffed up versions of the old tech today. No real new functionality. The functionality is as follows:
I have 7 light banks controlled by this system, mostly outside. The buttons that control the 7 light banks are low voltage, 18ga wire. they are ST momentary switches. Press to the right and the lights turn on. Press to the left and the lights turn off. Pressing the button activates a relay somewhere else (think by the fixture) that switches the unit from closed circuit to open circuit, (this next part is important) depending only how the button is pushed. So pushing off many times will do nothing. However, leaning on the button will cause the relay to burn out and fail. There is a central "brain" that can control them all. It is a dial for each bank and a rocker switch.
What I want to do:
Eventually remotely control, schedule, and automate the lights based on the seasons. This would allow me to turn the lights off when it is dark, and turn them off when it is light. And have a "oh Shi*" button to turn them all on. There are many software solutions to cover the detection of light and scheduling. What I am looking for is the hardware solution.
I have a thought, to use an internet controlled relay, and then connect that to a series of relays to translate that into a series of on and off through a momentary switch. I can do this, but I need basically 14 IP controlled relays (one for each on and one for each off) and then 5 more for each circuit to turn each on/off to momentary. That is 70 relays.
I think I am making this too hard or just do not know the right approach. Looking for design suggestions mostly, but would entertain a design and build solution.
Thanks for your consideration!

Miller Time Pub
509 West Wisconsin Ave. Milwaukee WI 53203 (map); 414-271-2337; millertimepub.com
Cooking Method: Grilled
Short Order: A hotel restaurant that actually has great burgers with loads of different topping choices
Want Fries With That? Frozen thin-cut fries are boring; the cheese curds and soup are better
Price: Miller Time Pub burger, $11; Brew City burger, $11; Ale House cheeseburger, $8.50; Wisconsin cheese curds, $9; bowl of soup upgrade, $2
Hotel restaurants don't usually get much attention, and in fact are mostly dismissed as being uninteresting and low quality. There are a few places that break out of the stereotype, and I found one of them: Miller Time Pub, located in the Hilton Milwaukee downtown.
Over the years I've heard vaguely negative things about the place, mostly that it's standard bar food and a better place to have a beer than a meal. I can't speak to what it was like before, but I noticed recently that Miller Time Pub totally revamped their menu. Since it's got a major emphasis on burgers (almost half the total menu), I decided it was finally time to give it a shot. Now I can tell any naysayers that the burgers were pretty tasty, making it more than just a necessary hotel add-on where you'd only find business travelers.
This is a restaurant where the toppings really make the burger. If you have trouble deciding what to get out of their 20 choices, try one of their top sellers, the Miller Time Pub burger. According to the menu, it somehow "made Milwaukee famous," a claim that's probably a bit unsubstantiated—but it was pretty tasty. Bacon, grilled onions, aged cheddar, jardiniere relish, and house bistro sauce topped the standard half-pound grilled patty.
The jardiniere was a mixture of finely chopped giardiniera, the Italian mix of tangy, pickled veggies. It added a vinegar kick to cut through the richness of the sandwich, like a more interesting version of dill pickles. Since the flavor is strong, the cooks rightly didn't overload the burger with the relish. If you like gardiniera, you'll love this burger.
The grilled onions were in large quantities and a little unruly, but that's forgivable. The bistro sauce was heavy on the mustard, something to keep in mind in case you're expecting thousand island. Both the bacon and the cheese seemed like afterthoughts, and couldn't really be discerned over the strong flavors of the other toppings—not necessarily a bad thing.
I almost liked their second best-selling burger, the Brew City burger, more. As with the other burger, the half-pound patty had a fantastic grilled flavor and a deep crust of grill marks. It was cooked slightly past the requested medium but it didn't bother me in this case because the copious toppings lent plenty of moisture.
I've had other burgers topped with Merkts cheese spread, and never really cared for it until this burger. I think the difference was the quantity. On previous burgers, it's been a little smear that makes it seem like you're getting gipped on cheese by choosing the spread over a slice. In this case, there was gooey cheese spread smushing out all sides, and that's never a bad thing in my book. The fried onion string helped corral the cheese spread a little, at least. And once again, the cooks had a light hand with the bold sauce—in this case, horseradish ale cream. Any more and it would have cleared out my sinuses.
The most exciting thing about the sides and apps I tried was the chive ranch that came with the cheese curds for dipping. It was thin and light with a mild onion flavor that cut through the heavy cheese curds. I ended up dipping the boring, frozen fries into it as well. You can also upgrade your side to a cup of soup, so I tried the beer cheese soup. It was definitely cheesy, but I didn't pick up on much beer flavor. Whimsically, it came with mini pretzels for dipping.
There's very few major complaints I can register about the burgers at Miller Time Pub. They serve a solid sandwich with more topping choices than most places in the city, so chances are you can find one you really enjoy. Hopefully, people will give Miller Time Pub a second try for the new menu and the patrons will be more than convention goers.

text: I am curious as to whether or not the Doctor is generally supposed to age. Obviously the actors that play the character do, but is the actual character's appearance supposed to be frozen in time until the next regeneration? It seems clear that the Doctor (and Time Lords in general) age at some rate prior to their first regeneration. Thus the first doctor went from being a child born on Gallifrey to a relatively old man bouncing around the universe in the TARDIS. One wonders though if pre-regenration Time Lords experience a fairly normal (if somewhat extended) humanoid lifespan? The question then becomes do regenerated bodies age or are they meant to be relatively frozen. This becomes more noticeable with Eleven since his story seems to cover a relatively long period time without any noticeable ageing ( i.e. he goes from around 900 to 1200 with no change in appearance). One of the things I suggest to a friend was that you could justify the fact that the reason each of the regenerated Doctors seemed to get younger is that as a Time Lord approaches their 13th (and presumeably final) regeneration, the process extends life by giving more youth in the hopes of running out the clock. One might event suggest that the 13th regeneration would completely reset the Doctor's proverbial clock and he comes back as a baby in the hopes of having a long but relatively normal final lifespan. Thus a Time Lords life cycle would come full circle.

- United States Grand Prix - FP2
'Updates seem to work' - Alonso
- Race:
- United States Grand Prix
- Drivers:
- Fernando Alonso
- Teams:
- Ferrari
Fernando Alonso believes the Ferrari updates "seem to work" during Friday practice for the United States Grand Prix but still predicts a difficult qualifying session.
While championship rival Sebastian Vettel dominated practice, Alonso was third quickest in FP2 but over three quarters of a second slower than Vettel. Alonso said he didn't expect to qualify in third place because McLaren and Lotus could be quicker on Saturday but he was still confident he could take points from Vettel come the race.
"I think the updates seem to work," Alonso said. "We're still analysing all the data from today but the first impression is that it's all going good so I'm happy but obviously if we introduce a little step at every race the others are doing the same so we keep the gap more or less consistent.
"Starting third would be fantastic but we were third on many Fridays but then on Saturday the McLarens, Lotus etc they seem to use their potential as well. On Friday maybe they hide something so it's possible that we'll have a tough qualifying but we were seventh and ninth in Abu Dhabi and we scored three points more than Vettel so we are better than seventh. I think we can score more points than him."
Alonso added that Vettel's advantage during Friday had not come as a surprise to Ferrari.
"No surprises for us, they are the quickest out there, they have the fastest package, they do first and second in all the practice, first and second in all qualifyings and if everything goes normal first and second in the race. But in the race but sometimes everything is not going normal; we put more pressure on them on Sundays. We will take our opportunities, we will fight every lap in the race and we know the strong point of them is the speed of the package. They are very quick. Our strong points are the united team, a very strong team, the ability of our car and we try to use each of our strong points."

Russellville suffers 3 turnovers in loss
By Sean Ingram Sports Editor
ALMA - Airedales quarterback Austin McCourt and wide receiver Isaac McCoy combined for four touchdowns - three touchdown passes and one TD rush by McCoy - as Alma defeated the visiting Russellville Cyclones 25-16 Friday night.
RHS (1-2) held the Airedales (2-1) to under 110 yards rushing, but McCourt threw touchdown passes of 10, 9 and 55 yards to McCoy, who scored Alma's fourth TD on a 5-yard carry. The Airedales advanced to the Cyclone 2 and took a knee to run out the clock to end the game.
Russellville's first drive came to a tragic halt when Alma's defense stripped the football from a Cyclone with 7:45 to go in the first quarter at the RHS 42. Five plays later, Alma scored first when McCourt completed a 10-yard touchdown pass to McCoy, who followed his blockers into the endzone. Stephen McMurray's point-after kick gave the Airedales a 7-0 lead with 6:50 remaining in the quarter.
Mullen apparently suffered his first interception on Russellville's next drive, but a pass interference penalty against Alma negated the turnover and gave the Cyclones a first down. But Mullen was later intercepted by the Airedales at the Alma 41, and this time RHS suffered its second turnover. McCourt hit McCoy on a fourth-down pass, then later threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to McCoy with :24 showing in the first quarter. The PAT was no good, but the Airedales led 13-0.
The Cyclones lost a golden opportunity for their first score after forcing Alma's first turnover when they gave the Airedales a little of their own medicine and stripped the ball from an Alma wide receiver. Russellville junior Jordan Barrett completed a 50-yard touchdown bomb to a very wide-open Mason Freeman, but another Cyclones penalty negated the TD and RHS had to punt to Alma, which improved to 4-2 in its all-time football series with the Cyclones. The Airedales beat RHS three times in the 1990s.
RHS junior Kendall Bond (13 carries, 62 yards) picked up 21 yards to propel the Cyclones to the Alma 32. Mullen completed a first-down pass to Cody Campbell inside the 20, then to Freeman inside the 10. Russellville chose to go for the fourth-down conversion, but gained the first down courtesy of an Airedale penalty for the third time.
Mullen connected with Gabe Limon, whose first play on offense this season resulted in a 4-yard touchdown. Zach Barefield's PAT pulled the Cyclones within 13-7 with 3:10 left in the second quarter after the 10-play, 65-yard drive. But Alma answered just two minutes later, when McCoy caught a 55-yard touchdown pass from McCourt. The two-point conversion pass was incomplete, leaving Alma ahead 19-7 with 1:12 remaining in the first half.
RHS drove down the field with help from a 26-yard pass completion by Barrett. The Cyclones got to the Alma 12, and as time ran out in the second quarter, John Marasco's 29-yard field goal went through the uprights to make the halftime score 19-10.
Russellville's special teams and defense gave the Cyclones the opporunity they needed to get back in the game in the third quarter. After the Airedales took the opening kick of the quarter, their field-goal attempt was blocked by a swarm of Russellville players led by Brad Barnes. Barrett then led the Cyclones to a touchdown where he scored on a QB sneak, and Russellville cut Alma's lead to 19-16 with 4:57 remaining in the third quarter.
The Airedales were held out of the end zone by the Cyclones defense, and RHS took over at its 5 as the third quarter came to an end. But the Cyclones were forced to punt back to Alma, which regained possession at the Russellville 48 and eventually scored when McCoy rushed across the goal line from 5 yards out. The Airedales set the final score at 25-16 with 8:54 left in the fourth quarter after the failed PAT.
Mullen hit Seth Masters on a first-down pass completion, but Alma's Gunner Jensen intercepted the next Cyclone pass for Russellville's third turnover of the night. The Airedales punted to the Cyclones around midfield, but RHS gave the ball back to Alma on downs.
Both teams begin the conference portion of their schedules next week. The Cyclones will open 7A-6A Central Conference play by hosting North Little Rock at 7 p.m. at Cyclone Stadium, while the Airedales will open 5A West Conference play at Morrilton.

Please do not delete
Hullo there! I am a fifteen-year-old girl, with a very unhealthy obsession with Harry Potter. I am English and proud! My music taste is... odd, to say the least. It ranges from the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack to Justin Timberlake and other extremes.
I am a big fan of musicals! Phantom of the Opera, West side story, Moulin Rouge, Sweeney Todd ect. I just love em!
I have random hyper moments and I can come up with the weirdest things. My favourite subject is English, but Art is a close second!
My favourite HP character is Fred; there is just something about him... I cant explain it. I love Ron too, isnt he just the sweetest? And I wont forget George because I love him as well. I also like Snape, some of the stuff he says is HILARIOUS! Madame Maxime is the BEST, simply because she calls Dumbledore Dumbly-dorrr and I love that. In fact, in my French lessons I usually just quote her. My friend must get pretty sick of it, but I suppose thats what you get when youre friends with me!
I like to make banners, draw and write. Im pretty normal really, if you cast aside my oddness. I like a good old giggle as well. If you can make me laugh then I can happily add you to my To marry list, of cause Fred is at the top, but dont let that upset you, theres enough of me to go around (HAHA).
Thats about it really! If you want a good old natter feel free to contact me!
Toodle pip!

PLEASE help me recover text from a FF cache
I am begging you, anyone, to PLEASE help me out here. I typed an extremely long post into my online classroom, and stupidly did not save it before I submitted. Again I repeat... STUPIDLY.
I immediately hit the back button, but it was not there. I started researching recovery options, and found something that didn't seem to work, as this appears to be gzipped, or something. Not even sure what that means.
I'm not even sure if this is the right cache entry, but it has a URL that looks correct, and it's extremely long. It's just a bunch of code and I don't have the first idea how in the world to turn it back into actual text.
I don't even have time, now, to rewrite it all, since it's due in an hour and a half. I figured this was a long shot, but I had to try. I don't expect people to go out of their way to help me, especially with such a short "deadline." In fact, I feel like a tool for even asking. I'm desperate.
