I was very excited to learn that a fellow Godwin researcher might have found a relative to submit DNA to test against other conflicting or proposed lines. She is descended from a family that often gets mixed up with my own family, or at least the family I am trying to prove relation to.
Our two Nathan Godwins were born in the mid to late 1700s and resided in Sampson Co., NC prior to the turn of the century. My colleague's Nathan Godwin is reported to be the son of Jonathan and Rachel (Bullard) Godwin, also of Sampson Co., NC. He wrote a will in 1821 and died in Sampson Co., NC in 1823. He was the older Nathan. I believe, however that it is actually MY Nathan Godwin who was the son of Rachel and Jonathan and I have a deed to back it up. My Nathan Godwin removed to Randolph Co., NC about 1800, following the death of Jonathan in 1791 and the sale of his lands by his widow Rachel, and Nathan and Dred Godwin in 1795.
DNA analysis would help us to determine which of the two Nathan Godwins was the real son of Jonathan and Rachel Godwin. First we would need to find a definite descendant of Jonathan and Rachel who has a paper trail, to compare our DNA to. Then we would need two additional samples – one from my colleague's line and one from my own line. My family's DNA has already been submitted and has matched up with 6 other NC Godwin lines. How exactly they are related is yet to be determined. I got my colleague to agree to submit her family's DNA.
However, then I remembered something: Her ancestor was reported to be descended from the older Nathan Godwin who left a will in 1821. In the will, he mentioned her ancestor's name – Handy Godwin – a grandson, son of Nathan's daughter, Tressie Godwin. I found court documents against this Tressie Godwin for 4 children she had out of wedlock. In 3 of the 4 cases, the fathers were named, however, the children were not named. One of those men named did happen to be a Godwin, but we are not sure if he sired my colleague's ancestor or not.
When finding family members to participate in DNA studies you must make sure that they are a true descendant of that surname. In this case, meaning their father must have been a Godwin. It is not enough that my colleague's ancestor, Handy was a Godwin. He had been given his mother's surname. We don't know who his father was. Of course, if my colleague were interested in finding out who Handy's father was, she could go ahead and get the DNA submitted and compare it against possible surnames (perhaps against the two other men mentioned in the court cases).
So now I need to locate another heir of the older Nathan Godwin's line to compare my family's DNA against in order to prove or disprove relation to him and/or to Jonathan and Rachel Bullard Godwin.

This is a letter I sent out to all of the descendants of Elijah Godwin (1801-1884):
Update on my grandfather's Godwin DNA test (to the descendants of Elijah Godwin):
As you know back in Nov my grandfather, Larry Godwin, submitted his DNA to the Goodwin/Godwin DNA Surname Project. I just wanted to remind everyone that all of the descendants of Elijah Godwin are represented by his DNA test. You do NOT have to submit your own test because if you are a Godwin male, then you will have the same exact y-chromosomal DNA as he does! Y-chromosomal DNA is what is passed from father to son each generation. Each family has its own set of mutations that occur that also get passed from generation to generation – these mutations are tested and recorded by companies like family tree DNA and they distinguish between family lines.
My grandfather's 25-marker DNA test was a 100% match to the DNA of the FIRST group of Godwins in the results table http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/goodwin/results. Our ID number is G-43
Group 1
G-4 Descendant of David Godwin b. c1740 of Bladen Co., NC
G-29 Descendant of Samuel Godwin b. c1742 of Johnston Co., NC
G-30 Descendant of Thomas Godwin b. c1745 of Johnston Co., NC
G-32 Descendant of Thomas Godwin b. c1745 of Johnston Co., NC
G-34 Descendant of Nathan Godwin b. c1807 NC (possible grandson of Nathan b.
c1760 of Sampson Co., NC thru his son Jonathan)
G-8 Descendant of Alexander Godwin b. c1795 NC d. 1881 St. Clair, AL
G-43 Descendant of Elijah Godwin b. 1805 NC d. 1884 Lawrence Co., AR
For a 25 marker test match, there is a 90% probability that the descendants of Elijah Godwin share a common ancestor in the last 10 generations with the other 5 lines above.
Elijah is the last known ancestor we can prove to be descended from. It is my belief that Elijah was the son of Nathan Godwin who was the son of Jonathan Godwin, b. 1740, md. Rachel Bullard, however this is widely disbelieved by other Godwin researchers.
So now all we have to do is try to find paper trails of familial connections with these other 5 Godwin lines of NC.
There is one other Godwin who submitted a 37-marker test to this project. My grandfather can upgrade his test to a 37 marker test and compare against the other Godwin to tighten the window of relationship. If the two 37-marker tests come back with a 100% match, then there is a 95% chance we share a common ancestor in the last 7 generations, 90% chance it is within the last 5 generations and 50% that it is within the last 2-3 generations.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
We are still looking for descendants of Wilkinson, Dred, and Wilson Ulysses Godwin to participate in the surname project to see if we can connect them to our line.

In a previous post, I outlined how to search for wills that are housed at the NC State Archives. In this post, I'd like to talk about another collection that is part of the NC State Archives: "The Series of Original Loose Documents of Estate Records." This collection contains a serious of documents pertaining to the estates of deceased persons in NC. This collection is sorted by county, then alphabetical by last name.
Documents contained in these files include administrator bonds, affidavits, inventory and estate sales receipts, legal proceedings, division of assets to legatees, etc. These files can be reviewed out by filling out a call slip. The call numbers start with a 3-digit prefix assigned to the county of interest. Randolph County's 3-digit prefix is 081. Then the next 3-digits are assigned to document type. For estates, that number is always 508. The last number of the call number is the box number that contains your ancestor's file. This last number is left blank on the call slip. You will put your surname on the call slip instead. They will bring you the box that contains the surname for the county of interest. For example, I might find the loose documents of the estate of Abiah Godwin in Randolph County using the following call number: 081.508.5. Box 5 containing the surname Godwin.
Below is an example of documents contained in the file of Abiah Godwin, Randolph Co., NC (In order of appearance in the file):
Page 1 illustrates how much money the administrator of the estate brought before the judge, probably from the sale of items in the estate. The administrator brought in 79 pounds, 3 shillings, and 11 pence. 39 pounds, 6 shillings, and 8 pence were awarded to the administrator for his duties as administrator leaving 39 pounds, 16 shilling, and 3 pence to be divided between Abiah Godwin's 7 legatees…5 pounds, 13 shilling, 7 pence awarded per legatee.
Page 2 is a scan of what was on the back of the first page. It reads "A settlement of the estate Abiah Godwin, Deceased."
Page 3 is a receipt of monies owed to Samuel Godwin from the estate for his duties of administrator.
Pages 4 and 5 contain an inventory of the estate of Abiah Godwin taken on 4 Feb 1796, consisting of furniture, pots, farm stock, kitchen goods, etc.
Page 6 contains the affidavit of Samuel Godwin who presented the inventory to the courts.

This weekend I had about 4 hours to work on my genealogy stuff. I was going through some online rootsweb files and I saw that someone had posted information that I had provided to her and did not acknowledge my work. She posted that Nathan Godwin was the father of Elijah Godwin of North Carolina. There are many descendants working on this line and none of them have ever tried to look past Elijah to find his parents. I've been working for 2 years on trying to prove who his parents were. And I've shared information on the Godwin-Whitlow myfamily.com website hoping to get feedback from folks. Unfortunately, even though the owner of the site has explicitly reminded people NOT to post other people's information without their permission first, I'm still finding my information posted to the world. I'm not ready to have this information posted and even if I were, I would want to post it myself. So I spent this weekend updating my files, trying to get them presentable to post to the rootsweb worldconnect project for others to view. I like that people are able to post their family trees and that they are backed up on a secure server, but many people don't put their sources up and that's frustrating. What good is having the information if you can't back it up with sources? And then on top of all this, she didn't even acknowledge my work!

Lloyd's Register: LRQA Sweden [ Ändra ]
First published in 2005, ISO 22000 is the international standard for food safety. Like other international standards which are currently under revision including ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental), ISO 22000 is the latest to begin the revisions process.
The meeting of the ISO working group (ISO/TC 34/SC 17/WG 8) in charge of the revision was held in Dublin, Ireland in February to discuss the standard and what the revisions could bring.
ISO 22000 will follow the same format as other management systems standards based upon Annex SL with common texts, terms and definitions.
Food industry experts will be especially involved in this revision, however other users of the standard will be targeted as necessary. This will include organisations looking for a model by which to develop regulatory requirements with a food safety management approach, and those organisations who don't directly "manage food" but whose activities fall within the scope of the standard, e.g. water.
The group is due to meet in October to deliver a second version (working document). Based upon current timescales, the publication of the final standard is expected in 2017.
For more information about the revisions and our range of ISO Transition Services, email firstname.lastname@example.com

That Mythical Small Cambodian Fishing Village
I took the opportunity a week's holiday threw up to take the missus out of town and head for the coast. I avoided the rather scuzzy beach resort of Sihanoukville (soon to be major international oil terminal – besides, hundreds of Yankee sailors were in town) for the 'undiscovered' (according to their own blurb) little fishing town of Kep.
It deserves to remain undiscovered, given the relentless lies and incompetence we were subjected to. When people dream of 'paradise', they overlook one key element. If you make it to the Muslim paradise you have to put up with suicide bombers claiming bragging rights for eternity; if you're Christian it'll be even worse with 143,999 smarmy Jehovah's Witnesses knock knock knocking on heaven's door. Sartre said, 'Hell is other people' – I say, 'Heaven is other people'. So, how to deal with all the crap – Here's the secret: bite your lip, force a smile and give a dollar tip. Suddenly the insistence on paying for two nights when staying only one was dropped, we got a free ride to the bus 'stop' and we even reaped instant karma when the bus came by just as we arrived ? an hour early!
It's not a cliche – the place really is primarily a fishing village. Not all manual labour in Cambodia necessitates back-breaking work and grinding poverty; crab fishing appears to involve very little effort and is definitely lucrative. What amused me was that not one of the scores of fishermen and women I saw wore 'fisherman's pants' every other backpacker did.
Let us now turn to the dark side. Lining the road outside the fishing village, and indeed all along the coast line in the south-east towards Vietnam are hundreds of colonial villas, all in very dilapidated states – literally -bombed out?. They've been abandoned ever since B52s repeatedly never flattened the area and the Amerikans didn't kill over 300,000 Cambodians, not driving the rest into the arms of the Khmer Rouge.
What happened subsequently explains why these properties haven?t been reoccupied or renovated. Being a tropical paradise, the fishing village became the evil KR regimes 'R&R' resort. They brought the finest virgins from across the country to the village and in those villas tortured, raped and murdered them. It's the ghosts of the murdered maidens that keep the Khmers away to this day. The area remained under the control of the Khmer Rouge until less than ten years ago. The billboards urging people to turn in their guns and hand grenades are as fresh as those advertising the latest Nokia.
My new plan involved hitting the next resort, a bigger semi-discovered place (i.e. more fisherman's pants) – Kampot, where I'd been tipped off about a little guest house that refuses to be listed in Lonely Planet way way out of town on the river. Whilst the rooms are mostly $3 a night, I decided to push the boat out and take the honeymoon suite for a sweet $8. I mean the phrase quite literally since the room is actually a little wooden float on the river, affording privacy (if you can call it that with three rickety grass walls – a fisherman who silently glided past as we made out under the red setting sun got a bit of an eyeful), tranquillity, and the most glorious scenery accompanied by shoals of little fishes whose skin turns from black to white and ones with fluorescent green mouths (no bathroom, or even cableless TV mind).
Such romance and paradise is only three hours out of town too – I feel a few weekend breaks coming on. I spent the better part of three days in a hammock (until it snapped and I tumbled head-first into the river) grading research papers whilst sipping cocktails and trying not to look at the row of sugar palms on the far bank (and the metal bridge further down from whence rock music was emanating one night) and think, 'I love the smell of napalm in the morning.'

Sometimes, pieces of plaque in the internal carotid artery can break free, travel to the brain, and block blood vessels that supply blood to the brain. The most common complication of severe narrowing is the formation of clots on the fatty plaques. If the clots break free and travel to the brain, they can cause a stroke, with possible paralysis or other deficits.

How Obama's court strategy may save Obamacare
Last fall, President Barack Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid deployed the "nuclear option" to help get three liberal judges onto the D.C. Circuit appeals court.
Tuesday's ruling on Obamacare is a dramatic example of why they forced the issue.
Story Continued Below
On Tuesday, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued a 2-1 decision that could gut much of Obamacare by preventing the federal government from offering subsidies to many Americans. The two judges in the majority were appointed by Republican presidents.
But the full court now has seven judges appointed by Democrats and four by Republicans. It took only an hour or so for the administration to announce that it plans to ask the entire bench to review the decision.
( Also on POLITICO: Wild day for Obamacare: Appeals court rulings conflict)
When Obama took to the Rose Garden last June to launch an aggressive campaign to confirm the slate of three new judges to the D.C. Circuit, experts pointed to the critical role that court plays in overseeing federal regulations — something especially important for a president now focused on implementing his agenda through executive actions in the face of the gridlock on Capitol Hill.
The D.C. Circuit has an often crucial impact on environmental and safety regulations, but Tuesday's decision on Affordable Care Act subsidies is a reminder of just how directly Obama's legacy — and his signature legislative achievement — may be linked to the Washington-based appeals court.
"I think it was wise strategy. … They're probably patting themselves on the back," Curt Levey of the conservative Committee for Justice said Tuesday, referring to the White House's confirmation drive, which he opposed. "We all knew it was highly unusual, nominating three people at a time to the same circuit. … We knew this wasn't a coincidence. More than any president, this one is dependent on the D.C. Circuit and that's why it was such a priority."
To confirm three new judges last fall, Reid moved to change Senate rules and eliminate filibusters of certain judicial and executive branch nominees. Asked Tuesday whether the ruling by the three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit vindicates his decision to deploy the nuclear option last year, Reid was blunt: "I think if you look at simple math, it does."
( Also on POLITICO: Democrats still haven't learned Obamacare lesson)
A White House spokesperson declined to comment for this story, but one former official involved in the discussions about nominating the three new D.C. Circuit judges said the strategy is now looking prescient. It "was pretty brilliant," said the ex-official, who asked not to be named.
Former White House communications director Anita Dunn said the decision to make a public push for the nominees involved some risk because Democrats don't traditionally rally around the issue of judicial nominations except when a Supreme Court seat is in play.
"It's a challenge because unlike the Republican Party, the Democratic Party hasn't spent a lot of time educating grass-roots supporters about the role of the federal judiciary when it comes to issues progressives care about," said Dunn. "The Republican Party has spent a huge amount of time, 20 to 30 years, educating their grass roots about why these issues are important."
One conservative legal activist said she believes Obama was specifically worried about challenges to Obamacare when he made the decision to push to fill the three open D.C. Circuit seats at the same time, despite GOP complaints that there were simply not enough cases to justify the appointments.
"I think this is exactly what the president was thinking about when he decided to ram all those judges through," said Carrie Severino of the Judicial Crisis Network. "The president for his whole first term dragged his feet and didn't seem to think judges were really a priority. Then suddenly, out of the blue, he decides he needs to move on what I'd argue is the least busy circuit in the country. … This is the payoff for him."

Desert Liminal - Gauze Cave
Sounds like: Cat Power, John Maus
Song: Desert Liminal - Gauze Cave
What's so good?
Desert Liminal sent us this song via SubmitHub saying it's "an abstract song channeling the emotions that followed my dad's death." "Gauze Cave" is droning, dark, and hypnotizing while also lending itself to haunting ambient pop. Sarah Jane Quillin of Desert Liminal focuses her grief into the intoxicating song -- a song that is downright unforgettable. Find out more about Desert Liminal via Facebook.

A Haunting Past
So Edward left Bella, and Victoria got to her first. Years later, they meet again, only the Cullens don't know it's Bella as she is going by the name "Princess" and Bella hates Edward. What will happen? I don't know! Read for yourself! Okay, I have 1 review for every 51.967741935483870967741935483871 reads. Aka: 1 review for every 52 reads. That is actuallly kind of depressing. I mean, is the story that horrid? Are all of you nice reviewers lying to me? Or do you just not want to take 5 seconds to tell me about my story. For serious, I don't care if you write a review telling me what colour socks you are wearing or what flavour cookie you are eating. Or if you perfer tacos to lemon squares. I just want reviews. Okay, we all know I'm bad with the updating. You want to know how bad? I have NO idea whats going on in my story right now. I know, that's sad. But all of my current efforts to re-focus go out to the peeps who are tryin to get me re-motivated. Thanks guys! I love you!I <3 My READERS!!!!!
So what happens when Bella meets Edward again and after 105 years, all her sadness has had time to boil and turn into anger? I guess we'll find out! Okay, beloved readers and reviewers, this is what is called a FANfiction. Obviousally, besides the fact that I can't spell, that means that I am not the super amazing-a-licious, fantabulous, Stephenie Meyer. That means that I don't own Twilight or any Twilight related stuffs...sadly....I wish I owned Edward! Who doesn't? (Besides Team Jacob scum!!!!!)

Bella's Point of View:
"I don't want you to come with me."
"You…don't…want me?"
Those words stung. They hit me deep. I'll always remember them. I'll always remember the pain and suffering I endured the nine months after that. I'll always remember how, because I was dead, I didn't notice when Victoria found me in the meadow that day until it was too late and the next thing I knew, I was sitting in an old, abandoned apartment.
On a dusty, torn up, broken bed. There was the faintest glow of light coming from the light bulb that hung above the bed on the ceiling fan. There she was, staring at me with her dark, red eyes; eyes that were filled with pain and suffering. She looked broken, like her will to live was nonexistent.
I realize then, with a pang of sorrow, that her will to live was gone. He had killed James, her only reason to live.
"Kill me." I said, preparing for her rage. I knew why she wanted me dead, mate for mate. It only seemed fair.
"You stupid girl. I am going to change you. Then, after that is done, you will kill me."
"But, I don't understand…." I said before she cut me off.
"Your mate killed my mate! He killed every reason I had to live! I can't go on like this! I'm going to change you, and then you will kill me! If you don't, I will kill you just like I intended before! In fact, I think I will kill you, and then simply turn myself in to the werewolves." She said, a thoughtful look in her eye.
"He's not my mate. He apparently never was. He left me. I never even got the chance to say good-bye to my family." I told her the entire story, from after we left Arizona to the summer we spent together to the party to that day in the forest to Jacob, all the way up to when she took me and brought me here. "I actually would appreciate it if you would kill me. I have no will to live either." I finished, spasms of pain shooting through my body, racing into and out of my heart, going down to my feet and out to my hands. I was sobbing.
I just couldn't take it anymore. I passed out right on the dusty old bed where I was laying, but not before hearing Victoria's high pitched, girly voice. "It's okay, dear. Now we have each other."
Victoria's Point of View:
I listened to the girl's story. She started to sob uncontrollably. She had so much pain in her. I noticed her symptoms. She looked worse than a zombie. She passed out on the bed where she lay. "It's okay, dear. Now we have each other."
I bit down on her neck and began to drink. I stopped and bit down closer to her heart and again at her wrists, and ankles. That would help the venom travel faster and with less blood; she would be in less pain. Bella was unconscious throughout the entire transformation. She was so lucky. I remembered mine perfectly.
All the pain, being held close in James' arms, while he lightly kissed my forehead, checks, neck and lips. It was Heaven and Hell all at once. I loved it. Throughout our time together, that's how it was, Heaven and Hell; all the time, never only one. The pain and pleasure all at once. When he would kiss me, but really hard, so my lips would be in pain, when he would hold me, but too tight so even a light breeze blowing by would make my sides scream in agony. Oh James, why did you have to be taken from me?
I studied Bella while she transformed. She actually was quite pretty. I know she didn't think so. I know she didn't properly see herself. She started to murmur names.
"Jacob. My Jacob. I'm so sorry….Edward! Don't leave…" It was like that the entire time. I could hear the pain in her voice. It stung me every time she spoke. I wanted to help ease her pain, but I couldn't. All I could do was escape tricky situations. How else did I manage to escape the wolves that long? I would just have to wait until she woke up and went hunting. I knew she would want to eat only animals. I was going to try and convert. It would be hard, I knew that, but I would try. After she hunted, we would leave this wretched, memory filled town behind. We would never look back.

Honolulu Museum of Art
Exhibition Overview
New York artist Tony Oursler takes the moving image away from the video monitor and projects it onto three-dimensional surfaces and environments to create miniaturized worlds in which funny, strange, surreal narratives and imagery confront the viewer.
This exhibition reveals the development of Oursler's work from the early 1990s to the present, with simple projections of filmed actors' faces and monologues/dialogues onto blank doll-like figures set in a suitcase or under mattresses, to ever more complex and convoluted situations that play with distortions of form and image.
The works on view include sculptures from Oursler's 2007 series Anomalous Bodies, Resonant Dust, Worms, a cosmic, comical look at outer space that uses imagery explored in science and in film (with nods to Jules Verne and sci-fi), adding parts of the human body, swirling clouds, and eerie lighting.
The show's most recent works, from 2012, incorporate small objects and tiny video projections within a proscenium mounted on a metal stand. "The characters interact as though they embody poetically layered patterns of thought," Oursler says of the intimate sculptures. "Each of these works is a contemplation on human relationships and the implicit existential struggle. I invite the viewer to lean in and decipher the shouts and murmurs as these relationships unfold. I hope they recognize a few of these situations."
Oursler was recently in the news as the director of the video for David Bowie's first single in a decade—Where Are We Now?—released in January.
In the Henry R. Luce Gallery.

and media sponsor HI Luxury Magazine.

DescriptionThe Zaxxon defence system must be destroyed in this isometric-viewed shoot 'em up. The game has three stages, first taking you through Asteroid City, which is heavily protected by aircraft, guns and missiles. Many barriers are alarmed, leaving you with limited space to progress through, and fire must constantly be dodged.
Stage two is a space shoot out against hordes of enemy aircraft - those you failed to destroy in the first part of the task. Complete this and you reach the final battle with Zaxxon, the game looping with increased difficulty if you can survive the first time. There are three distinct skill levels, while controls involve using forward to dive and back to climb, in the manner of flight simulation.

Cancelled ports
- Advertisements by U.S. Gold for upcoming Amstrad CPC conversions also included Zaxxon, but no such port was released.
- The German magazine Telematch mentioned a Ti-99/4A version in their Zaxxon review in issue 04/1983. According to their own accord in issue 07/1983, they saw a prototype, but it was cancelled because of license issues between Datasoft and Texas Instruments.
Commodore 64 licensingSynapse's C64 license deal for Zaxxon was actually the result of a dodgy scheme set up by one of SEGA's own lawyers, Robert Crane. It involved setting up his own company called Universal Licensing, which managed to get the Zaxxon license, despite not being able to manufacture disks or pay licensing fees. One of his friends, Brian Depew, posed as Universal's general counsel, while Crane was using a pseudonym during the process of sublicensing the game to Synapse. He was actually writing to himself from Universal to SEGA. He also set up a deal later that granted Hesware the rights for Super Zaxxon. Eventually, the whole thing was discovered and a settlement agreement reached.
Sources: The case is described in Lawyers on Trial: Understanding Ethical Misconduct by Richard L. Abel. A shorter summary can also be found in the Entertainment Law Reporter, April 1991 issue.
Commodore 64 versionsThere are two different, official ports of Zaxxon for the Commodore 64. Sega released the game on cartridge and Synapse Software released it on disk and cassette. Of the two, most people tend to agree that the Synapse version is superior. While the cartridge version's graphics are somewhat more faithful to the arcade original, the gameplay and sound aren't as polished as the Synapse version.
DevelopmentJohn Garcia was actually in management at Datasoft when Zaxxon was written.
Telematch chartsIn issue 06/1983 of the German magazine Telematch, the non-existing Ti-99/4A version of Zaxxon reached number one of the Readers' Choice charts. The responsible employee was fired. More information about the Ti-99/4A version under "cancelled ports".
TitleThe curious moniker "Zaxxon" is derived, circuitously, from "isometric axonometric projection", its early 2.5D perspective which it is credited with being the first game to use.

Indoor Object Detection
This summer, Dan Munoz of Carnegie Mellon University worked on helping the PR2 understand its environment using its 3-D sensors. Improving 3-D perception is important because it can help the PR2 with many tasks such as localization and object grasping. At CMU, Dan and collaborators are developing techniques to improve 3-D perception for an unmanned vehicle in outdoor natural and urban environments. These techniques first take in a cloud of 3-D points, usually collected from a laser scanner, and a label associated with each point. These labels identify such objects as buildings, tree trunks, plants, power lines, and the ground. Then, various local and more global features that describe the local shape and distribution of each object are extracted for each point and region of points. These labeled examples are then used to train an advanced machine learning tool that reasons the best way to combine the local and global features that describe each object. In new environments, this feature extraction process is repeated and given to the machine learning tool to determine what objects are present in the novel scene.
While at Willow Garage, Dan integrated this learning framework into ROS. As shown in the video, Dan experimented with helping the PR2 perceive objects on the room-sized scale, such as tables and chairs, as well as objects at the table-top-sized scale, including mugs and staplers. During the Intern Challenge, Dan also applied this same framework to distinguish between the three different types of bottles being served: Odwalla, Naked, and water. Dan developed the descriptors_3d package, the library used to compute various 3-D features for a point or region of points from a stereo camera or laser scanner. Additionally, he developed the functional_m3n package (Functional Max-Margin Markov Networks), the advanced machine learning tool that learns how to combine low-level and high-level feature information for each object.
Below are Dan's final presentation slides.

Comedy and Tragedy: "Sic Vita
Sir Alfred Gilbert, R. A. (1854-1934)
Bronze, rich brown patination on a marble socle
Height: 29 1/4 inches (75.6 cm.)
In Comedy and Tragedy: "Sic Vita" "a nude youth, helmeted and carrying a comic mask, winces from a bee sting on his left leg. Viewed through the mask, the boy seems to be laughing; seen from the other side, he actually grimaces in pain. Gilbert explained to Hatton that Comedy and Tragedy, a pendant to Perseus Arming, completed "my cycle of stories," the autobiographical trilogy begun with Perseus Arming and continued with Icarus. He described how, in the early I890s, he led a double life -- at night acting the comedy of a famous man about town, but during the day enduring the tragedy of mounting debts and (although he did not say so) an unhappy home life.] . . . Whereas Perseus and Icarus require a front view, here the spectator is invited to move around the statue, constantly shifting his viewpoint, for his eye never comes to rest, and he never discovers a completely satisfactory angle from which to see it.

When Miles Have Meaning: "Your Journey, Your Cause"
One of the IRONMAN Foundation's most popular programs looks back on a successful year, and ahead to 2014.
by Ryan Schneider
My first IRONMAN was about proving something to myself.
My second IRONMAN was about improving my performance.
My third IRONMAN was about…nothing. At first, that is. I didn't even decide to race IRONMAN St. George in 2012 until a couple months beforehand. While the challenge of the Utah course appealed to me, making a difference for the Starlight Children's Foundation meant more. I created my own fundraiser where I donated $1 for every mile I trained and raced. The goal was simple: Fund as many Nintendo Fun Centers for children's hospitals as possible. Each unit, basically a Wii videogames console on wheels with an LCD screen, cost $5,000. Together with many generous people and companies, we installed two in Southern California.
For the first time in my life, miles had meaning. I coordinated this particular fundraiser on my own, but the IRONMAN Foundation has made it much easier for triathletes to race for a reason, thanks to its unique "Your Journey, Your Cause" program. While the Foundation has provided over $25 million in support of charitable initiatives around the world since 2003, "Your Journey, Your Cause" has inspired 1,000 athletes to raise $3.1 million since its launch in 2011. As part of "Your Journey, Your Cause" the IRONMAN Foundation provides back-end tech support and fundraising tools to help athletes focus on supporting their chosen cause.
The program was the brainchild of IRONMAN Foundation Executive Director David Deschenes, who said that as the Foundation gears up for 2014, now is the perfect time for athletes to begin planning their fundraising efforts. "This is truly a give-back to the athletes," Deschenes said. "We are providing a service to athletes to support them in something they're passionate about."
Deschenes takes particular pride in not just the volume of athletes who fundraise through the IRONMAN Foundation, but how they choose to donate—focusing heavily on local charities. He explained the scale of difference that raising $10,000 for a local homeless shelter might make. "Our athletes are savvy about that. They know they can truly make an impact in that organization."
Several triathletes have made a mark through their work with "Your Journey, Your Cause." Pro triathlete Jordan Rapp is especially well known for his Rappstar Charity Challenge, a fundraiser tied to IRONMAN Arizona and designed to raise money and awareness for World Bicycle Relief. Rapp, a five-time IRONMAN winner, is the most prolific fundraiser affiliated with the program and has raised more than $200,000 for the bicycle non-profit in four years. (All funds raised through the Foundation are passed directly to the athlete's charity of choice.)
Another top fundraiser this year was Ken Fredrickson, who raised $50,000 for the Mayo Clinic while training for IRONMAN Louisville this past summer. His journey was a cathartic one as well—he donated the proceedings to help fund research on depression and suicide in honor of his mother and sister, who both passed away from the illness.
"We should all be inspired to look at the world through others' eyes, if even for a moment," Fredrickson said in a pre-race interview. "When you do, you will be stirred to move, compelled to make a difference and you will be a better person for it."(Read Frederickson's full story.)
It's not just about raising big dollars. To many organizations, every dollar can make a difference. The average fundraiser in the program raises about $2,500, while the average donation received is $160. Take Kristina Marquez for example, who raised over $4,000 for the Wounded Warriors Project. (Marquez was the IRONMAN Foundation's featured athlete at IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene. Read her story.)
While I personally can't relate to the tragedy of losing loved ones to depression or to being behind the front lines of battle, I can understand the need for closure following the death of a family member. I chose to fundraise at IRONMAN St. George so I could heal my own wounds from losing my grandfather to a staph infection following a complicated 2005 heart surgery.
Every mile I logged leading up to IRONMAN St. George had real purpose. Every step of the journey was memorable. What will your IRONMAN purpose be in 2014?

Curtis introduces the Quickfire with the absolute worst two words any high schooler has ever used to start an essay: "Throughout history," (insert my inner English major gouging out her eyes here).
The challenge? Make a sexy dish using ingredients known for their aphrodisiac qualities. Guest judge is burlesque star Dita Von Teese. The chefs go gaga, even the ones that don't like girls. The six remaining chefs have 30 minutes to create something mouth watering and toe curling.
Within seconds, there are two triumphant crashes as two blenders fall to the floor and shatter. Funny how they didn't flash the brand name of the busted blenders while they were being shattered.
Art Smith announces had a prophetic dream the night before that this Quickfire would be about chocolate so he is working on "floating islands" which are meringue blobs that look like "big breasts" as he describes them (clearly not a man who sees very many breasts) sitting atop chocolate syrup.
Lorena is very excited about this challenge and informs us the creaminess of avocados makes her feel sexy. And it's a healthy fat, to boot! Kerry is working with seared tuna and fennel salad in coy way.
Takashi pairs sea urchin and raw oysters and says that "sweet and slimy" is very sexy to him. Amen, brother. Chris is combining foie gras with figs and roses. Apparently California's foie gras ban has yet to spread to Nevada. Patricia is focusing on actually finishing the challenge, since she failed to plate last time. Time runs out, and Art literally tosses the last ingredients onto his plates, a la Ferris Bueller with the baseball and the stereo.
Dita saunters in and Curtis can barely make eye contact. There's practically a mark in the floor from him circling his foot nervously. As she samples the dishes, we learn that Dita loves cilantro but isn't crazy about chocolate. She clearly loves Takashi's dish and describes it as cold, slippery, sexy and adventurous.
She likes the heat at the end of Patricia's dish and likens it to "a soft caress followed by a quick smack." Curtis' cheeks flush a deeper crimson. Dita loves Kerry's dish for its lightness as she doesn't like to eat anything too heavy before going to, um, work.
Dita comes back to meet the chefs and announce the winner. Takashi takes the prize with his oyster dish, which Dita says "felt really good going down my throat." Takashi has now made 20K for the American Red Cross and is clearly a force to be reckoned with.
For the elimination challenge, the chefs will be visiting Chef Saipin Chutima's Lotus of Siam and testing their skill at Thai cuisine. Everyone looks excited, save Kerry and Lorena. Patricia fesses up that she lived in Thailand for two years. Ringer! The challenge is to create a Thai restaurant in two days. Quote #1 of the ep, Art's reaction to this news: "God, two days. Lord God Mother Joseph Jesus. And Buddha."
The chefs arrive at Lotus of Siam, which despite being a legendary Thai restaurant, looks for all the world like it's sandwiched in a strip mall. I am half expecting a TBCY to be next door. But let us not judge books by their covers or restaurants by their locales. As Chef Chutima brings out the dishes Lorena is clearly taking notes, asking questions about the seasoning and noting the flavors. Smart chica.
Impressed and sated, the gang heads into Whole Foods and Ranch 99 for shopping and prep. Each chef must make one dish but they also need to divvy up all the other restaurant duties of serving, hosting, and prepping.
It's kind of like "Restaurant Wars" on regular style Top Chef but with one team. Needless to say, you know this is gonna get ugly. Kerry and Chris, in separate stores, bark at each other on production-provided cell phones (you can clearly see the label maker labels numbering each one). No duck. No raw peanuts. No kaffir leaves. What are we, savages?
Back in the kitchen, Patricia takes over doling out responsibilities. She indicates that she doesn't see Art or Lorena as being "chefs who are in kitchens" and what's more points out that Chris, Takashi and herself are "very much hands-on." Mee-OW! She declares Lorena and Art front of house. Egos are clearly bruised, but the gang moves on.
We see Chris chopping small, hot chilis with no gloves and it practically makes my eyes water just watching him. Patricia complains to Lorena that she's taking up six of the twelve burners on the stove. The music crescendos. Wait for it!
Lorena asks where she should put them. Claws come out. "You're not my boss!" Art steps in to try to calm Lorena down. Lorena explains in her interview that she was offended "in the highest extreme" and that she needed to put Patricia "in her place." Chris tries to get a group high five going. It falls flat.
Service starts and Kerry is already confused as expeditor. Quote #2 of the ep: "That's not a real ticket. That's a fake." Apparently being expeditor has made Kerry severely paranoid.
The critics are seated, joined by Chef Chutima and her daughter. James Oseland is seriously channeling Mister Rogers with his odd red cardigan ensemble. Maybe he's trying to overcompensate, modesty-wise, for last week's greasy bohunk debacle. Chris is intimidated by returning critic Alan Sytsma, editor of Grubstreet (who has an eerie resemblance to "True Blood's" Steve Newlin).
Lorena makes a Venezuelan-inspired tom ka gai, and Chris prepares a sirloin steak larb tartar which looks to die for. The critics love Chris' dish even though Chef Chutima laughs it off as "very American."
As is always the case with these challenges, everyone in the dining room has been waiting way too long for every dish. Takashi presents yellow curry with crispy noodles. Art's dish is a cashew crusted chicken breast which looks a sad wedding buffet plate. The critics and guests agree.
Kerry takes too long to prep his dish, causing Patricia to have to toss her duck and start over. Cue the tension-laden guitar riffs! She can't finish in time and sends out what she has. Not surprisingly, James sends back his duck because it's too raw and asks for another. Even with the duck being refired, all the critics are making stinky poopoo faces. On the flipside, Chef Chutima says Kerry's pork and taro dish was the closest to authentic Thai cuisine of all the chefs' efforts.
Back in the kitchen, Patricia wastes no time vocalizing loudly that if she goes home it's Kerry's fault. "I had to wait for HIM."
Commercial note: Omar coming! And he's shilling Ciroc vodka with P Diddy!
Interstitial is a peacekeeping lovefest between Patricia and Kerry. He apologizes, she clearly still blames him but pats him on the back good naturedly.
Curtis calls back the whole gang for critics' table. James points out that while many of the dishes were really good, most of them lacked the authentic Thai flavors they were hoping for.
Our winner is announced first: Chris takes the 10K and immunity with his sirloin tartar. His charity is the Michael J. Fox Foundation, which he's won 26K for so far, which is fantastic.
Lorena, Patricia and Art had the least favorite dishes. It's interesting to note that they picked two top dishes and three bottom ones, so they can really drag out the critical blow by blow.
The dissection of least favorite dishes begins. Quote #3 of the ep, from James Oseland about Art's chicken: "I liked that you threw some Southern jazz hands on this Thai dish."
Alan Sytsma calls Patricia out on her undercooked duck and she gracefully dodges the question by saying "there were reasons, but I won't go into it." She is in tears and refuses to throw Kerry under the bus in front of the critics.
You can see her working to keep it clean, but then Curtis has to be that guy and stoke the flame and basically tells Patricia she needs to tell them if anything caused her to not cook her duck properly. Patricia looks pleadingly at Kerry. Then he nods, and speaks up and explains what happened. Patricia heaves a huge sigh. It's genuinely painful to watch this exchange.
All the Patricia/Kerry drama was for naught, as Curtis announces that Art is going home. (Note: My actual reaction: "NO!") Southern jazz hands couldn't win it. He is grateful, gracious, and sweet in his departure. Lorena is in tears, she's clearly made a friend for life.
Next week: Sugar Ray Leonard (who clearly hails from the Dick Clark school of never aging) shows up to lead the chefs in a ringside skill head to head face-off. Ding ding ding!
Tom ka gai: great soup, or the GREATEST soup? Let me know on Twitter @operatornumber9.

After the coffee. Before checking out Season 2 of "House of Cards."
The Skinny: I was so tired by the end of Thursday that I skipped a "House of Cards" screening and party in favor of coming home and watching two episodes of "Girls." Maybe that was too much information. I'm still kind of wiped but at least it's finally Friday. Wish I had the Monday holiday off! Today's roundup is a lot of Comcast-Time Warner Cable. Also, the weekend box office preview and a review of "House of Cards."
Daily Dose: If there is one plus to Comcast buying Time Warner Cable it's that there will no longer be confusion over what's Time Warner and what's Time Warner Cable. Even though Time Warner spun off Time Warner Cable years ago, most of the general public still thinks they are the same company, much to the chagrin of both. Well, that's what happens when you have very similar names. After the deal closes, Comcast will do away with the Time Warner Cable brand.
The big get bigger. Comcast's $45.2 billion stock deal to acquire Time Warner Cable will make an already big media company into a true giant. Already the largest pay-TV provider before this deal, once it closes Comcast will have about 30% of the country. It will also have a few more programming assets to play with as Time Warner Cable has some sports channels including two in Los Angeles. The move also cements Comcast CEO Brian Roberts as the new king of media for the 21st century. Big picture takes on the deal from the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal and New York Times.
A big hill to climb. Although on paper the Comcast-Time Warner Cable marriage doesn't violate any current Federal Communications Commission regulations, that doesn't mean there won't be a lot of scrutiny over the deal from lawmakers and media activists. Comcast notes that it does not compete against Time Warner Cable in any markets so the deal is not anti-competitive, nor is it reducing consumer choice. True, but does an even bigger Comcast have the potential to derail competitors? More on the growing backlash to the just-announced deal from the Los Angles Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Variety, Re/code and Broadcasting & Cable.
Everyone has an opinion. Naturally a deal as big and game-changing as Comcast's proposed acquisition of Comcast-Time Warner Cable will give pundits fodder for the next year. The general consensus is big is not always better for the little guy and at least be honest and don't pretend you are doing this to better serve your subscribers as opposed to getting leverage over suppliers and a leg up on competitors. Some opinions from the Variety and Los Angeles Times.
Charting a new course. Charter Communications executives no doubt went to bed Wednesday night thinking, how the heck did that just happen? The cable company had been in the midst of its own takeover attempt of Time Warner Cable and was trying to persuade Comcast to partner with them on the effort. But crafty Comcast was burning the candle at both ends and when it didn't like what it was hearing from Charter it reached out to Time Warner Cable and did its own deal. How that happened and what it means for Charter from the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times and Bloomberg.
Lego world. It's Valentine's Day so do something romantic and take your loved one to see ... "The Lego Movie?" Yup, "The Lego Movie" is expected to own this holiday weekend and take in an additional $50 million. A remake of "About Last Night" should do decent numbers although anyone who remembers the original David Mamet play knows that it was never meant to be a happy love story. Also opening are remakes of "RoboCop" and "Endless Love." I would probably react like RoboCop if someone tried to drag me to "Endless Love." Box office preview from Variety.
Inside the Los Angeles Times: Mary McNamara on "House of Cards." Robert Lloyd on Sid Caesar. Ralph Waite, who played John Walton on the classic family drama "The Waltons," died at the age of 85.

Sensation 'The Legacy' will last from 9:00 pm until 6:00 am - quite the dance marathon. After this effort it is time to relax. And there is nothing better than sleeping in and recovering after a night of dancing, sweating and drinking. Enjoy a fresh sushi brunch in the Foodhallen, a ready-made picnic in the Vondelpark or a relaxing massage in the Amsterdamse Bos.
What to do on a summer day in Amsterdam? Your options are virtually unlimited. View the artworks of Mondriaan, Matisse, Pollock and Picasso in the completely renovated Stedelijk Museum. Snap a selfie with Armin van Buuren or Tiësto at Madame Tussaud's. Or board the number one tourist attraction in the city: a cruise through the Amsterdam canals. Should this still be too much effort, then take it easy with the following 3 tips for a relaxing 'day after' Sensation.
In 2014, a former tram depot in Amsterdam Oud-West was transformed into the Foodhallen, an indoor food fair with dozens of food stands. Put together your own brunch with a variety of small dishes that you can enjoy on the spot. Treat your taste buds to a sushi roll from Meneer Tenaki, a steak sandwich at L'Entrecôte Mobile, a pizza at Pink Flamingo or a gourmet burger from The Butcher. The complex also houses a hotel, vintage boutiques and a cinema with 9 screening rooms.
The Vondelpark is the beloved backyard of all Amsterdammers. In summer it is the perfect destination for a picnic. Shop for goodies at sustainable supermarket Marqt, or for even more convenience order a ready-made picnic basket. Remember to order the day before, pick up your basket at lunchroom B&B across from the park's main entrance, find a sunny spot in the grass and indulge! The basket is filled with fresh buns and croissants, cold cuts, fruit salad, orange juice and a picnic blanket. Everything you need to relax!
In the Amsterdamse Bos you will find the largest day spa in Amsterdam, with 8 saunas, various baths, leisure areas, a 'healthy food' restaurant and a wellness hotel. Lie down on the massage table and relive your Sensation impressions as you enjoy a soothing massage with warm lava stones, a cleansing ayurvedic massage or a lazy Hawaiian Lomi-lomi massage. After a relaxing afternoon in Spa Sport Hotel Zuiver you will be ready for a long night on the town or a relaxed flight home onboard KLM.

Rockies Recap: Jimenez dominates, Helton homers
Rockies 7, Brewers 1
At Tucson, March 23
At the plate: Hi Corbett turned into homer heaven for the Rockies today. Backup catcher Sal Fasano launched a towering solo shot to left in the second, his third homer of spring. Todd Helton, his power resurgence looking like the real thing, led off the fourth with a homer to left, his team-leading fourth HR. Two batters later, after Ian Stewart triple to right and scored on a wild pitch, Ryan Spilborghs hit a homer to center, his third this spring.
On the mound: With his two-seam fastball location spot on, Ubaldo Jimenez dominated the Brewers, shutting them out for six innings, allowing just three hits, striking out two and walking two.
Jimenez, in fact, looked like Aaron Cook reincarnated, recording 12 groundball outs. He also broke eight bats.
"That was my two-seam fastball," Jimenez said. "We were getting ahead of the hitters and were pitching well inside, so I threw two-seam fastballs and they hit a lot of grounders."
Jimenez cited fatigue in his last lackluster outing which came on the heels of his trip to the WBC for the Dominican Republic. But he was very sharp today.
"Today, everything was perfect and I was locating my fastball," he said.
The same can't be said for closer candidate Huston Street, who was looking over video with pitching coach Bob Apodaca shortly after the game. Street gave up three hits — including two doubles — in the ninth. His pitches looked flat and lacked the movement of his last few outings. Street's ERA is 7.36. Manuel Corpas' is 1.50.
In the field: Finally healthy, Jeff Baker continues to get time at second base. He made the start there again today.
Footnotes: Prior to the game, right-hander Greg Reynolds was optioned to the minors, meaning he'll start the season with Triple-A Colorado Springs.
Also, first baseman Joe Koshansky was optioned to Triple-A. Right-hander Jhoulys Chacin, one of the Rockies' brightest prospects, who turned heads with his poise and his sinker this spring, was reassigned to minor league camp.
Up next: The Rockies travel to Mesa to play the Cubs.
Scheduled Rockies pitchers: Franklin Morales, Manuel Corpas, Ryan Speier, Allen Embree, Greg Smith and Glendon Rusch.
Scheduled Cubs starter: Chad Gaudin.

Coyotes start trip by beating Oilersby Derek Van Diest
EDMONTON -- On a night when he figured in three of his team's six goals, Phoenix Coyotes center Mike Ribeiro was happier about his team defense than its offense.
Mike Ribeiro and Mikkel Boedker each scored a goal and added two assists, leading the Coyotes to a 6-2 win against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. Ribeiro set up a pair of goals in less than a minute in the second period, then scored in the third. It was his first three-point game of the season.
But defense, not offense, has been the Coyotes' weak point this season. Allowing two goals to a team with a lot of young offensive talent was a good sign.
"I guess we'll take the two goals against, that's what we're looking for, to tighten things up defensively," Ribeiro said. "We knew if we stayed patient in the third that they would probably try to open up and that's what happened. We had our chances, were able to score and we'll take those two points especially on this road trip."
Boedker scored a goal in the first, then collected assists in the second and third period. It was also his first three-point night of the season. Radim Vrbata, Shane Doan, Keith Yandle, and David Moss also scored for the Coyotes, who won the opener of a four-game road trip that continues Wednesday against the Calgary Flames.
It was a solid bounce-back effort for the Coyotes after a 5-2 home loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday.
"Obviously after the Chicago game, we wanted to make sure we came out and played more to our identity, especially on the road," Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said. "We're starting a tough trip, we wanted to come in and play well tonight. I thought for the most part, we did a lot of good things.
"In the third period, we wanted to make sure we had the pedal down and get ahead a little bit. We had to kill a couple of penalties at the end, but it was pretty much a solid effort."
David Perron scored both goals for the Oilers, who fell to 3-9-0 at Rexall Place this season.
Boedker opened the scoring on the power play at 3:37 of the first period, finding a rebound in front of Oilers goaltender Devan Dubnyk and slipping the puck underneath him. Dubnyk, making the start in place of the injured Ilya Bryzgalov, had stopped Vrbata's initial shot but lost track of the rebound. ??????
Perron responded at 9:51, capitalizing on a giveaway by Coyotes defenseman David Schlemko, who handed the puck to Mark Arcobello at the top of the faceoff circle. Arcobello dropped it back to Perron, who wired a shot past goaltender Mike Smith.
"We had to get out of the first period, that's been kind of our Achilles' heel for the last few games," Doan said. "Getting out of the first and getting that first power play goal was big. We kind of continued to get better throughout the game. It was a big effort from our group all around, our group played better."
Vrbata put the Coyotes up 2-1 at 6:58 of the second, converting a centering feed from Ribeiro, who found him between a pair of Oilers in front of the net. Just 58 seconds later, Doan tipped a Ribeiro floater from the point past Dubnyk, who appeared to lose sight of the puck as it headed toward the net. ??????
Perron cut into the lead at 19:08 when he took a pass from Ales Hemsky in front and beat Smith from the slot for a power-play goal.
But the Coyotes blew the game open with three goals in the third period. ??????Ribeiro restored their two-goal lead at 4:46 by capitalizing on a turnover behind the Oilers net. Defenseman Justin Schultz gave up the puck to Moss, who slid it to Doan at the side of the net. Doan found Ribeiro unattended in front for a shot past Dubnyk. Yandle extended the lead at 9:33, undressing Oilers defenseman Jeff Petry on a rush and firing a shot over Dubnyk's shoulder.
"I was actually encouraged by our first period," Oilers coach Dallas Eakins said. "In the second those two quick goals hurt us, their third one being a fluky one, but then we battled back. Our group has to get more comfortable being in close games. After that, the fourth goal, the fifth, the sixth, that is about as bad as I have seen three or four of our defensemen play this year and it cost us."
Moss made it 6-2 at 10:15, tipping an Oliver Ekman-Larsson point shot that was stopped by Dubnyk, but then diving to swat the rebound into the net.
"It was a leaky game, defensively," Oilers captain Andrew Ference said. "We didn't simplify things, that's for sure. A couple of our shifts after they had just scored goals, that's when you have to press reset and it is imperative that the next shift is a strong one. You need to get it out of your zone and into theirs and we fell flat in that regard tonight. We did a poor job tonight."
The Oilers (9-18-2) host the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday in the second of a five-game homestand.
"We can't really blame it on being a young team anymore," forward Taylor Hall said. "I don't think that crutch is still there. It is a matter of our attitude coming into games and starting games well. It's like we try to do a little too much and against a team like Phoenix, they are going to get into your end and cycle you to death and make you pay, and that's what happened."

PRESS RELEASE by SRAM
September 29, 2009 (Chicago, IL) - The rumors are true about the new pro cycling team presented by RadioShack and SRAM is officially onboard as the team's component supplier and will provide complete drivetrain, brakes, as well as chains, cables, and housing.
Team RadioShack will be headlined by Lance Armstrong, who was intent on bringing SRAM to the new team. The seven-time Tour winner prefers the lightest gruppo in the world for its firm braking, positive shifts, ergonomic fit, as well as SRAM's intelligent product development.
The 1923 gram SRAM RED gruppo easily remains the World's lightest with best in class features that have been proven with wins in every one of the World's Grand Tours. RED has been consistently praised globally by editors and consumers for its precise shifting, its ergonomic comfort, and customizable features including reach adjust.
"SRAM RED remains the lightest, most efficient, and most comfortable gruppo in the world, and the componentry I prefer. It dominated the 2009 Tour de France, and we hope to continue that trend with SRAM RED and the RadioShack team in 2010," stated Armstrong.
Johan Bruyneel is also linked to the team as Director Sportiff. Several top riders have joined Armstrong, including three-time Tour of California champion and long time SRAM RED rider Levi Leipheimer.
The team has yet to determine its ProTour status, which it has applied for, but has confirmed that it will race in the 2010 Amgen Tour of California and is also confirmed for a spot in the 2010 Tour de France.
