Amilessë, Quenya for "mother-name", was the name given to an elf at near birth by his or her mother. It is part of the essë, or naming, of High Elves, along with the essi ("father-name") and epessë ("after-name" or honorific). The amilessë is a private name to an elf and is used by family and close friends. The mother-name was often quite significant because elven mothers had insight into the characters and abilities of their children, and many also had the gift of prophetic foresight.[1]
For example Fëanáro ("Spirit of Fire") was the amilessë of Fëanor.[2] Other names were Aracáno "high chieftain", Atarince "Little father", Tyelcormo "hasty-riser".[1]
Also called Essi Apacenyo ("names of foresight").[3]

text: Show Hide image Politics 15 November 2012 Each BBC crisis sows the seed for the next After the Newsnight debacle, it is excessive caution – not recklessness – that threatens the BBC. Sign-up On the evening of Monday 12 November, on my way to an awards ceremony, I was walking along Portland Place, near Broadcasting House in London. Huddled in the damp air outside the building that is symbolic of all that the BBC represents, and has represented since it was established under a royal charter in 1927, were a few reporters, hoping to be tossed more scraps of information about the latest "stepping aside" inside the embattled media organisation, so that they might feed the mighty maw of the rolling news channels. (One of the curious spectacles of the latest BBC crisis is just how self-referential so much of the reporting on the story is – which is in turn a consequence of the very strangeness of an organisation that is simultaneously opaque and transparent, private and public.) Earlier in the day, Tim Davie, the acting director general, had brusquely ended an interview with Sky News conducted from Broadcasting House via a satellite link. In obvious irritation, he removed an earpiece and promptly walked off camera. It was a moment of small drama. Back in the studio, Sky's Dermot Murnaghan snidely said: "I bet he wouldn't do that to the BBC." Murnaghan's aside was in keeping with the general mood of sustained anti-BBC hostility of recent days. The continued existence of the BBC as an impartial, semi-autonomous global media organisation publicly funded by a nonnegotiable national licence fee offends many. The Conservative free-market right has long suspected that the BBC leans left, which is nonsense. What the BBC has is a resolutely establishment bias. Is there a more establishment figure than the chairman of the BBC Trust, Chris Patten, or the ubiquitous yet admirable Dimbleby brothers? The Murdochs and their compliant editors despise the BBC's power and influence – it represents all that Rupert and James Murdoch loathe. Rival media organisations from the Guardian, which has lost more than £40m this year, to the Telegraph resent its free-to-use website, with its rich, continuously updated content, iPlayer and wonderful archive of talks and music. Even Davie's "mockney" accent has been held up as a signifier of a deeper decline. Davie, who before joining the BBC worked at Procter & Gamble, may have no journalistic experience but he has energy and the kind of commercial acumen that the BBC requires. Nor is he some kind of cultural barbarian. I've met him once. We had coffee and he took me on a brief tour of the remodelled Broadcasting House. When we met he was in the process of reading every Booker Prize-winning novel; he had a list of the winners folded in his wallet and a tick had been placed beside each one he had read. If you were setting up a national broadcaster today you wouldn't create the BBC in its present form, with its many layers of middle management, labyrinthine processes and structures and its desire to be all things to all people. Yet the BBC remains one of the few British institutions that is admired throughout the world for its impartiality, the range and quality of its programmes and, in spite of the Newsnight debacle, commitment to truth-telling. It is a cherished link to and a creation of the old culture of benevolent paternalism that flourished between the two world wars and reached its apotheosis with the 1945 Labour government that created the National Health Service and the welfare state. Not far from Broadcasting House that night, the awards dinner for the Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction was being held at the Royal Institute of British Architects. In his introductory remarks, Stuart Proffitt, publishing director of Penguin Press and chairman of the prize committee, praised the BBC as the greatest cultural institution in the history of the world. His words were well chosen because true and were received with spontaneous applause. Here, at last, was someone prepared publicly to speak up for the BBC when so many others were seeking to traduce and destroy it. For many years when he worked at the Rupert Murdoch-owned publisher HarperCollins, Proffitt, who is cerebral and donnish, was committed to publishing non-fiction books of distinction in a house that was then often in open revolt against deliberation and scholarly plurality. He eventually resigned in 1998 after he was ordered not to publish Chris Patten's memoir of the period from 1992-97 that he spent as the last governor of Hong Kong. Proffitt had agreed a £125,000 advance for a book he told Harper- Collins's then chairman, Eddie Bell, was "the most lucid, best written and compelling . . . I have read by any politician of any persuasion since I came into publishing". That was not enough for Murdoch and his acolytes, who felt that the Patten memoir was too critical of Chinese power and could damage News Corporation's ambitions for media expansion in Asia. The book was dropped. As for Patten, he received a £50,000 payout from HarperCollins and, as he recently told the Leveson inquiry, his memoir was published in the United States with a sticker on the dust jacket that said: "The book that Rupert Murdoch refused to publish." "It was a commercial decision, which rebounded to my financial advantage," he said. Neither Patten nor Proffitt is a cultural leftist but both men recognise the intrinsic value of the BBC, as an institution that holds the British nation state together and embodies an unfashionable, anti-market ethos. The danger now is that, as it self-flagellates and moral panic spreads, the BBC will lose all confidence, its enemies will be emboldened and its senior editors and producers will become even more cautious and constrained by a disempowering culture and bureaucratic managerialism. "The search for someone to blame is always successful," a senior BBC source told me. "But the solution to each crisis seems to sow the seeds for the next. So we will probably end up with even more managers, more box-ticking, and more compliance 'to stop this happening again'. I knew something was wrong when the compliance officer became the most powerful person in the building. "Compliance should be left to engineering firms. The BBC needs to restore the culture where producers are given the confidence to produce and editors the confidence to edit. Because that climate was destroyed after Hutton and Brand." Expect more box-ticking, less boldness and journalistic freedom and risk-taking. Jason Cowley is editor of the New Statesman.

Fallout Script Extender
From GECK
Fallout Script Extender (FOSE)
Current Version: v0001 beta
Main site: http://fose.silverlock.org
Documentation: FOSE Command Documentation
Please note that v0001 is a beta release, and should not be used in any released mods. Functionality may be added or removed before the final release, and scripts will need to be recompiled.
How It Works (AKA why NOT to be afraid of FOSE)
FOSE does not edit your Fallout3.exe in any way, and as such is not dangerous to use at all. It works by running the .exe and then patching it while it is in memory in order to add in new scripting functions.
How to use FOSE with the GECK
Scripts written with these new commands must be created via the G.E.C.K. after it is launched via fose_loader. Open a command prompt window, navigate to your Fallout 3 install direcory, and type "fose_loader.exe -editor". Alternately you can create a shortcut to fose_loader.exe, open the properties window and add "-editor" to the Target field. The normal editor can open plugins with these extended scripts, but it cannot recompile them and will give errors if you try.
FOSE works with the DVD version of Fallout 3, as well as the Steam version. It does not work with the Direct2Drive version since that .exe is encrypted. Support cannot and will not be added for the D2D version as decrypting the .exe is illegal.
- FOSE is currently incompatible with Windows Live, so when running via fose_loader.exe, Live will be disabled. It appears that Live periodically checks the cryptographic signature of the Fallout runtime. If the signature doesn't validate properly, Live fails. Support is currently under investigation. It will still work fine when run without FOSE, so don't worry about issues if future features end up being tied to Live (buying DLC, etc).
- With the above situation, users will need to move their save games from their user profile folder in the My Documents folder to the main Saves folder in order to access them.

As Professor Gunn observes in his foreword, this book has been a long time coming: first mooted in fact in 1985 (a very suitable date). This has had two significant consequences which I shall discuss sequentially.
Voices of Conscience: Royal Confessors and Political Counsel in Seventeenth-Century Spain and France / Nicole Reinhardt
As suggested by its subtitle, Nicole Reinhardt's fine new book undertakes a double mission. On the one hand, this is a study of a specific practice and the men who participated in it.
Complementing the growing academic interest in pre-modern diplomatic ceremonial, Jan Hennings' Russia and Courtly Europe explores the relationship between Russia and Europe beyond the traditional portrayal of political incompatibility and clash of cultures from the Peace of Westphalia (1648) until the end of Peter I's reign in 1725.
Manuscripts Online: Written Culture 1000–1500 is an online gateway to digitised primary sources on medieval written culture. The website collects existing resources behind an interface similar to that of a library catalogue.
On the Fringes of Diplomacy: Influences on British Foreign Policy, 1800-1945 / eds. Anthony Best, John Fisher
As a field, diplomatic history is not generally known for its conceptual adventurousness. To resort to stereotypes, if representatives of the historical profession were invited to a party, the diplomatic historian would be the stiff, bespectacled man in a suit examining his host's bookshelves in the corner while the cultural historians smoked weed in the kitchen.
A Man and an Institution: Sir Maurice Hankey, the Cabinet Secretariat and the Custody of Cabinet Secrecy / John F. Naylor
A Man and an Institution is in reality three books combined into one. It is, first, a contribution to a biography of Sir Maurice Hankey, the first Cabinet Secretary; second, a history of the origins of the Cabinet Office and its development until Hankey's retirement in 1938; and third, an account of how the Cabinet Office came to be the guardian of official secrecy.
Peter Yearwood has carried out impressively extensive research to produce this account of how British foreign policy was closely linked to the formation and operation of the League of Nations in its early years.
If there is a popular image of George II, it derives from the Whig historians of the 19th century, who established him as the counterpoint to their chief subject of 18th-century interest, his grandson and successor, George III.
Dialogus de Scaccario, and Constitutio Domus Regis/The Dialogue of the Exchequer, and The Establishment of the Royal Household / eds. Emilie Amt, Stephen Church
The present volume marks the latest in a succession of modern editions and/or translations of Richard fitzNigel's Dialogus de Scaccario and the Constitutio Domus Regis, stretching back in the case of the former to the edition by A. Hughes, C. G. Crump, and C. Johnson published in 1902.
The Parliament Rolls are the principal record of the meetings of English Parliaments from the 13th to the early 16th centuries. Their importance to scholars of medieval England has long been recognised; between 1776 and 1777 they were edited, under the direction of the Reverend John Strachey, and published as the six-volume edition of Rotuli Parliamentorum.

Pro-Gamer Gauntlet: Pro-Gamer Gauntlet: Pilot
Pages 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 NEXT
Pro-gamer Gauntlet is a business that employs 11 elite gamers, each a master of a different genre. What does this business do? Well, simply put, they are personal trainers...for gamers.
Nice video. Looking forward to seconds.
Eagerly awaiting new episodes.
See Jim, new shows don't give you bad press, bad ones do!
The crazy eyes bit when he opened the door sold me on this but didn't he say she'd be one of ten? *goes back* Yes he did.
Horror master sounds like my kind of sociopath.
Looks interesting. Especially at the end with the parkou- sorry, "Platform" guy playing baseball.
Intrigued as to where the plot (if there is one) is going to go.
Also: "Unofficially the girl in the short-shorts". Nice self-awareness.
This series looks like it has a lot of potential, I really enjoyed what I saw except for a bit of overacting in places. I am going to have to wait to see where the plot goes, my only hope is that this series has a planned ending, instead of being infinitely episodic.
Cheers on the new series and best of luck. (great casting decisions btw)
Still waiting for an explanation on why a 'third person shooter' is the 'first person shooter' master.
Oh yeah, and the Retro guy is a bit too over the top for me.
EDIT: Also, unless your filming out in public street with random pedestrians... put some black tape on the end of Lara Crofts guns. The bright orange really kills immersion.
Looking forward to future episodes.
Erm... I'm waiting for the comedy bit to begin :P
Is it just me, or does the lady who played FPS look like she could be Graham Stark's (of LRR) little sister...
Interesting concept, this seems like it could turn out to be pretty good. I'm looking forward to seeing the next episode.
I rather liked that actually. Not sure exactly why but hopefully more episodes will convince me!
I like where this is going
Other than Retro Guy, it looks to have a lot of promise. His acting is way too over the top.
The guy dressed as a king was funny, but that's about it. Tomb Raider isn't an FPS btw.
Well... that's different. Still better than the Jimquisition though, so I think I'll continue to watch...
Not my cup of tea. I also have to agree with Sober Thal that it seems odd to have an iconic TPS character heading up the FPSs.
I rather liked this. I look forward to more.
Really bad up front, I won't lie. But the stuff during the credits actually made me want to see more, and so I shall look forward to doing so.
Yeah, this was brought up when it originally aired in the contest. I hope they answer in the next episode. I'm going to give this another try, I hope it gets better.
Wait how much does the job pay? Are you hiring another pro? Well I need to brush up gaming skill to pro level.
This look like it will be a good show. I will be watching more of this.
I quite liked it. The best line was probably over the credits "don't look at me like that, he kidnaps people."
That was...interesting. I liked it enough to watch more, so let's see if this goes anywhere.
Well, after much deliberation in my head we have finally came to a consensus. Welcome to the weekly video line up. Now, more game related comedy and more awesome
I wish I had been able to get to the credits. Thought this was awful.
One of the best series openings I've ever seen on the Escapist!! It was really funny and I was looking forever to find the forum post about this just so I could say how awesome it is.
Overall, I'm looking forward to it, especially for the horror and RPG masters. Not big on the retro gamer. His acting is way to strong.
To make it clear for everyone: We will be releasing our first four episodes here next week and many of the issues that you are bringing up have since been addressed.
We have definitely addressed the Lara Croft costume "issue." It's actually a part of her character development. So, you'll see what's in store and that costume does change by episode 3.
Thanks for the feedback so far. It's what helps us make the show better. We are glad to be here on the Escapist and we look forward to producing the best video series that we can.
RPG Master's final line in the credits made it for me.
Bring on the next episode.
The guy getting "patched".
That made my day.
Good idea and awesome Platform Master. If the acting improves, this will be really interesting.
This show has some potential, and judging from the post above, they're aware of the things that need to be fixed.
There were a few solid jokes in there, which is a great start. Looking forward to seeing the improvements and changes. Sometimes it takes some time to settle in and find what works. Look at Top 5, for instance.
Gotta learn to punch before you HADOUKEN
That's a T-shirt right there.
I have a hard time understanding what is this though, is it some LARP show or are they going to provide "training" for video games?
EDIT: I am saying this because even the more simple games would require at least ten episodes, if the episodes are at the regular Escapist length of 5-7 minutes. For more complex games time can become a big issue - Day9 does a one-hour long daily show about how to improve at Starcraft and he is at Episode 300. I'm having problems seeing this timeframe available for PgG.
Well. Good idea, RPG master and Platform are almost perfect. Retro master needs to set up his acting slightly he seems great in some shots and than acts unnatural in the others..
But overall, a very interesting concept. Looking forward to the next show. On what time basis will you be releasing them?

A mechanism which is usually only a step of many puzzle locks but here with a bit more visual hints. It makes this puzzle a good introduction to puzzle locks also because this usually is the last step of those other ones and it can be very frustrating for a beginner because it seems every thing has been done correctly but the lock still does not open. A nice looking puzzle but too easy to make it really good.

This is a good introduction to trick locks for a new puzzler. The solution is not difficult, but does require some thinking. It is also a great looking lock. Though not a challenge for an experienced puzzler, it will look great with their other trick locks.

Specialized Social Platforms for Your Social CRM
Consider adding specialized social platforms for your Social CRM. There are major platforms that most companies who use social media choose first, but other specialized sites might be just right for your business. If you have a niche that's clearly defined, you might find another network that's perfect for your business.
Consider social network alternatives
If you think that being on the major sites assures that your customer will find you, think again. Is there something unique about your product or service that lends itself to one of the less traveled social networks? They include the following:
Google+: The success of Google+ is still an open question. Because of its late entry into the social network scene, users have been reluctant to add another social network to their to-do list. At the end of 2011, Google+ was reported to have 62 million users, whereas Facebook had a reported 900 million active users. The number of people on Google+ makes it seem like a start-up.
But don't ignore Google+ as a potential social network for your business. One of the important things to remember about Google+ is that it's tied to the Google ecosystem. It takes effort to get on another social network, so Google+ users are there because they want to be. It's not a me-too proposition.
Social media thought leader Chris Brogan, President of Human Business Works, abandoned Facebook at one time to operate from Google+. He also wrote a book called Google+ for Business: How Google+ Changes Everything, so clearly he's a fan.
What does Brogan say about Google+? He's quoted in a 2012 article at online news source InTheCapital saying, "Go on Google+ looking to establish a place where you can share information that might help with customer acquisition and community nurturing." He recognizes the value.
One of the unique features on Google+ is that you can segment followers into circles. After you've established a circle on a specific topic, you can read and post to that circle directly. The circles feature gives you the opportunity to send the right message to the right group.
LinkedIn: If you work for a B2B company, you may want to consider using LinkedIn as one of your social platforms. In March 2012, a HubSpot survey called the State of Inbound Marketing found that 62 percent of the respondents said they acquired a customer from LinkedIn.
LinkedIn has over 100 million users who have uploaded all sorts of business information about themselves. In addition, LinkedIn has all sorts of special-interest groups that you can join to meet like-minded people. Everyone on LinkedIn is interested in networking with other business people, so LinkedIn is fertile ground for prospecting and developing customer relationships.
Visual platforms
Some popular social networking sites that emphasize visuals have been cropping up of late. The following two make sharing graphics and photos very easy:
Pinterest: Launched in 2009, in its short life, Pinterest has become the darling of social media. According to comScore, Pinterest hit 10 million users faster than any other site. It has also been demonstrated that Pinterest's referral rate is higher than that of Facebook. Referral rate refers to the rate at which Pinterest users refer their pins to others.
Pinterest is a visual site. The majority of users are female. When someone pins (shares) a photo of interest to their board, another interested pinner can pin it on their board. In this way, the photos can create traffic to the pin's original site.
Pinterest allows you to add prices to your pins and places them in the upper-left corner. (See the Gifts navigational tool at the top of the Pinterest home page for pins with pricing info.) If you have great-looking graphics or photos of your products or services and your demographic skews female, you may want to consider Pinterest.
Tumblr: Some consider the microblog Tumblr to be a more visual version of Twitter. Tumblr is very customizable and allows almost any content format: photos, quotes, links, music, and videos. According to Tumblr's own site, as of February 2012, Tumblr has over 46.2 million blogs. Tumblr's growth has been very rapid. Between 2010 and 2011, it increased 218 percent. This made the social media community take notice.
On average, Tumblr users are young. comScore reports that half of the users are under age 25. If this is your demographic, consider creating a Tumblr blog.

BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. – Miscues from the Chicago Fire defense made the team's 3-2 win over Toronto FC last Saturday a close game. But despite those mistakes, one defender in particular had a lot to do with the victory.
Gonzalo Segares' first goal in more than two years came at a timely moment, when he tied the game up near halftime, just two minutes after Toronto made a surge to take the lead.
GOAL: Segares punches one back for Chicago
"Once they scored their two goals, [the Toronto fans] got back some life," Segares told MLSsoccer.com. "One minute after they were getting really excited and their celebrations, it was definitely another shock for them."
Segares put his finger up to his mouth to quiet the Toronto FC crowd. He knows the Fire's defending had everything to do with their celebrating.
Just two minutes earlier, some messy defending gave the Reds the lead when Ryan Johnson's pass from inside the penalty area found a wide-open Reggie Lambe at the back post.
"We got caught on a deeper run and we didn't make the right movement, and we're just not tracking guys," Segares said. "It's just mental lapses that we need to get better."
That wasn't the lone defensive miscue the Fire have made in the last few games.
In the Fire's weather-shortened 1-1 tie against Houston a week earlier, Dynamo forward Will Bruin was able to make a cutting run right through the Chicago defense before scoring the opening goal of the game.
"All of these things come out of mistakes," Segares said. "Things happen so fast, and we've got to be ready to react. The same with Houston, [Bruin] comes in and we didn't push the line, we could've been a little better to shift to cover that hole, and that's really similar."
The Fire made a change two weeks ago, when Cory Gibbs was sidelined with a torn meniscus. Former German international center back Arne Friedrich was ready to step in, but the backline is still taking time to jell.
"Backlines, when they find cohesion, they stay together," coach Frank Klopas said. "You need time to develop that understanding."
Friedrich has said all along that he knows time will be needed for the group to play to their potential.
But he also knows that Saturday against Seattle (8:30 pm ET, watch LIVE online), they need to be at their best.
"We know that we have a tough team coming in who's strictly organized all the time, and they are very disciplined," Friedrich told MLSsoccer.com. "We saw some clips of our game, and we saw some good things and some things we thought we could improve."
While the Fire defense is still learning to play with a new center back, Friedrich thought the Fire showed something when Segares leveled the game.
"It was very important that we came back when we were down 2-1," Friedrich said. "It showed the character we have on this team."

After the Federal Reserve�s two-day policy meeting adjourned last Wednesday, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke spoke and the markets soared.
After the Federal Reserve�s two-day policy meeting adjourned last Wednesday, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke spoke and the markets soared.
The Dow Jones Industrial average spiked 147 points while the Standard & Poor�s index climbed 1.2 percent. Bernanke�s message was simple: The Fed has no intentions of decreasing the rate at which it pumps new money into the economy. The official Washington-speak for this action is �quantitative easing,� or QE, which is a Potomac two-step whereby the Fed prints more currency or, more accurately, simply boosts the balances of certain government accounts allowing agencies to purchase bonds and other marketable securities on the open market. By doing so, they flood the markets with greenbacks and, in the short term, affect the interest rate of money which is then loaned to governments, businesses and individuals.
To say this practice manipulates the markets is an understatement.
Confused? You are not alone.
In a week in which Americans were told that the nation�s unemployment rate moved lower in August to 7.3 percent and the national average price for a gallon of gasoline has remained above $3 per gallon for 1,000 consecutive days, the Fed decided to keep printing money.
What makes the Federal Reserve�s action any more righteous than a common forger? Of course, the theory behind �quantitative easing� is that as more money is injected into the economy, households and businesses will feel more inclined to spend and invest thus stimulating growth.
But what happens over time to the value of the dollar as the Federal Reserve�s presses (or keyboards) churn out $85 billion every month?
Imagine you live in Swansboro and the town leaders feel some of their citizens are challenged at finding work in a stubborn economy. It has more than 7 percent of its working-age adults unemployed. Its local housing market is at a standstill with many homeowners under water and abandoning their properties. Many citizens� wages have been frozen since the so-called Great Recession more than seven years ago.
Miraculously, the town leaders discover a moth-balled printing press and begin producing their own currency backed by the full faith and credit of the town of Swansboro. This new money would stimulate the local economy by making available vast amounts of new capital at reduced interest rates � for a while. It would instill a false notion in the people that government could ride into town and save the day merely by turning on a printing press.
Most people would recognize this as a sham and the money rolling off the press as worthless. But when the Federal Reserve does exactly the same thing, most Americans see validation of the theory in the rise of the market and believe the Fed is doing the right thing.
Obviously, local, county or state governments cannot print and coin their own currency. That chore is constitutionally bestowed onto the federal government.
Bernanke�s press conference was not lost on investors. Major indexes spiked sharply giving investors a gigantic windfall in their respective portfolios. My investments rose nearly one percent at the market�s close Wednesday. But paper gains are like blowing kisses � the intention is palpable but rarely materializes unless you act immediately. I and many others are long-term buy-and-hold investors, so the occasional meteoric rises in a portfolio are often tempered by an equal number of drops.
I�m years away from tapping into my retirement account � but recently it�s been tempting.
The creation of economic wealth can only occur when two parties engage with one another in a voluntary exchange of value � be it labor, material or other types of marketable services. Printing money or electronically inflating accounts for the sole purpose of purchasing securities creates a dangerous economic environment susceptible to runaway inflation and the collapse of the entire economy.
The euphoric high many investors felt at the close of the market last Wednesday should be remembered when the dust settles on this avalanche of phony money emanating from the Fed.
If printing money was the solution to what ails a struggling economy, then the world�s markets would never experience recessions, depressions, inflation and deflation.
Each time I hear the term quantitative easing, I�m reminded of the classic John Houseman television commercial for the investment firm Smith Barney wherein the late actor is seen sitting inside a swank big-city restaurant espousing the virtues of the firm.
He closes the spot by stating: �Smith Barney, they make money the old fashion way. They earrrrn it.�

Moon Maps for Marble
So you want to add moon maps to Marble. This is great since we want to see lots of maps in Marble where the user can browse through space and time. There are lots of maps that are under the public domain.
You'll find a lot of maps at sites like:
Before start creating a map, check if its also created at Marble Maps. Normally these type of maps or rather images, are uploaded in several projections, to create our map, we need a simple cylindrical version. If the map that you want it's not available in a simple cylindrical version, you can follow the steps that are explained at Historical Maps
Downloading textures
As an example we start off with this nice map of Iapetus from the Cassini and Voyager missions:
This map has a resolution of 2880 × 5760 which gives us good details, and marble can create the tiles automatically, because it's under 60000x120000.
We create a directory "Iapetus" that it's the nome of the planet/moon, and inside it, another one "iapetus", that it's the name of the maptheme. We need to change the name of the file downloaded and save it as "iapetus.jpg" at /Iapetus/iapetus.
Create a dgml file
Next you have a template for creating the dgml file. Copy it inside a plain text editor and save it as a .dgml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <dgml xmlns="http://edu.kde.org/marble/dgml/2.0"> <document> <head> <name>$YourMapName</name> <target>$YourMapTarget</target> <theme>$YourMapTheme</theme> <icon pixmap="$PreviewImage"/> <visible>true</visible> <description><![CDATA[$YourMapDescription]]></description> <zoom> <discrete> true </discrete> <minimum> 900 </minimum> <maximum> 3500 </maximum> </zoom> </head> <map bgcolor="#000000"> <canvas/> <target/> <!-- insert layers here --> </map> <settings> <property name="coordinate-grid"> <value>true</value> <available>true</available> </property> <property name="overviewmap"> <value>true</value> <available>true</available> </property> <property name="compass"> <value>true</value> <available>true</available> </property> <property name="scalebar"> <value>true</value> <available>true</available> </property> </settings> <legend> <section name="coordinate-grid" checkable="true" connect="coordinate-grid" spacing="12"> <heading>Coordinate Grid</heading> </section> </legend> </document> </dgml>
Now we need to change some things in this template, like the name of the map, what moon is, etc. First, we change the $YourMapTheme by the name of the second directory that you create in this case "iapetus" Second, we need to replace $YourMapTarget by

Pokemon Sapphire Version - In-Game Team Building FAQ
At least once a day as I scroll down the IGN Pokemon board I see something to the extent of "wuts a good team to get thru the game", or, 'wut starter did u pick/should i pick?". So, I have decided to make a guide for beginners about how to set-up a team to get through the game. If you disagree with anything I say, I apologize. But in my opinion, I find the following statements to be of use. Also, for the sake of argument, G/S/C Pokemon you can capture in FR/LG only after defeating the Elite Four are not mentioned because the point of this guide is only to get you up to that point. The first thing that should be noted is that this guide is only intended for you to get through the bulk of the game. The Pokemon mentioned here are certainly not going to be good choices for any form of a real team in the longrun. To be realistic, it's going to be near impossible to train a real team while playing through the game at the same time. The Pokemon you aquire early in the game are likely going to have poor natures and/or DVs, and will inevitably be EP-screwed as you battle trainers. My advice is to wait until you've beaten the game before attempting to form a real team. By this time, you should have quite a few TMs, access to enough Pokemon to breed for desired egg moves or to pass down rare TM moves, and have access to anywhere in Hoenn/Kanto where you would want to EP train your Pokemon. With that being said, let's begin: THE STARTER Quite a hot-topic for players who are new to the world of Pokemon. Which starter to pick? As you probably know, the starter you decide to pick will be the only one of the trio you'll be able to aquire for the remainder of the game. If you're playing Ruby or Sapphire, I suggest you save just in front of Prof.Birch's backpack and select the starter you want. If it isn't female, soft reset. All three Hoenn starters have egg moves that you are going to eventually want. If you're playing FireRed or LeafGreen, you'll have access to Ditto - So don't worry about this step. Now then, let's look at the starters and their strong points. Hoenn Starters: MUDKIP Mudkip starts out as a pure Water-type, but will eventually evolve into the tankish Water/Ground-type Swampert. What Swampert lacks in speed it more than makes up for in defenses and HP. Becoming a Water/Ground mix also means that it will be double-weak to Grass-type attacks. But, luckily for you, that is this type mix's one, and only, weakness. Just be sure to keep Marshtomp and Swampert away from anything you suspect may have a Grass-type attack. TREECKO A true gem to those who can appreciate the benefits of speed. While most Grass- types have a reputation for being slower than dirt, Treecko is one fast little bugger from the get-go. At level 29, Groyvle will learn the game's most useful Grass-type attack - Leaf Blade. This move is exclusive to Groyvle/Sceptile (Treecko never learns it, so avoid holding-off evolution)and is, basically, a Grass-type version of the attack Slash. TORCHIC This pure Fire-type will later evolve into a dual Fire/Fighting-type Pokemon. With decent speed and mammoth attack, the final evolution, Blaziken, is a direct-battler's best friend. Capable of sweeping entire teams of the poorly- trained Pokemon in-game trainers love to use, you'll have little to worry about. Kanto Starters: SQUIRTLE Squirtle starts out as an average water-type, but once it finally evolves into Blastoise its defenses make it somewhat tankish. Blastoise's special attack is also decent, and allows it to exploit a STABed Surf better than most other Water-types found in Kanto. BULBASAUR Bulbasaur is a great pick for beginners, and makes the first few Gyms a breeze. Like most classic Grass-types, Bulbasaur and, by extension, its evolutions also bear the Poison type. Because all Poison-type Pokemon are immune to the Poison status effect, this will benefit you greatly against the relentless barrages of Poison Stings you'll have to endure before reaching the end of your journey. Bulbasaur also learns Leech Seed at level 7, and then Sleep Powder at level 15. Quite a useful combo for stalling until its HP is recovered when you're far from a Pokemon Center. CHARMANDER If you like the Fire-type, then go with Charmander, because you won't have the oppertunity to capture any other Fire-types for a while. Be warned, however, that choosing Charmander makes the first two Gyms far more tedious. Charmander learns Metal Claw, at level 13, which will help against Brock, but there's not much it can do against Misty. Although Charizard is quite popular, it's not all that great of a Pokemon. And, although it's Flying-type saves it from Ground-type attacks, it also robs it of its resistance to Ice-type attacks, adds a weakness to Electric-type attacks, and causes Charizard to receive a crippling quadruple damage from Rock-type attacks. Keep Charizard away from anything you might suspect has Rock-type moves. Once you've selected your starter, it's time to think about building an effective team for trudging through the game. It has to be somewhat of a ballance, here. You're going to need tool Pokemon to navigate through the game's obstacles, while still being able to effectively dispatch enemy trainers. If trainers are giving you problems and you find yourself running to a Pokemon Center every-other battle, then your team is too focussed on tool Pokemon. On the other hand, if you blow through enemy trainers yet you're constantly finding yourself having to return to a PC to switch-out for a tool Pokemon, then your team is too focussed on power. I'll try to help you form an even team. THREE ATTACKERS Make three of your Pokemon suitable for battling other Pokemon. Your starter is a good choice for one of these slots. The other two should be diverse and somewhat powerful. I wouldn't suggest loading yourself down with underpowered Pokemon such as Raticate or Linoone, nor would I advise you to use types that are weak to the same type of attacks. Here are two examples of poorly constructed teams: Raticate Pigeotto Beedrill This is not a very well thought-out team. Pretty much just a slew of Pomemon captured early in the game that you kept with you. They may get you through early stages of the game, but will be quite underpowered in the longrun. Use Pokemon such as these only as long as it takes for you to find/capture better ones. Blaziken Magneton Rhydon This may seem like a diverse set, but they all share one common weakness: Ground. This sort of thing may cause problems and hardships later on. Avoid setting up problems for yourself such as these or they will eventually come back to haunt you. I'm not going to recommend any combinations for you, because I believe you should use what you like. Just keep in mind what was mentioned above and you should be fine. Always remember - In-game trainers are terrible; don't expect them to use remarkable battle stategies against you, because they won't. HM WHORE Except for Surf, HM moves are simply pure rubbish. But you're going to need HM moves to navigate through Hoenn/Kanto, so, this is where your HM-Whore comes into play. Although this Pokemon travels with you, its purpose is never to battle - Only to get you to where you need to go. Here are some good examples of Pokemon who are perfect for this role: Hoenn: ZIGZAGOON HM1(Cut) HM3(Surf) HM4(Strength)(Linoone only) HM6(Rock Smash) Zigzagoons can be caught at the start of the game, and can learn three HMs for traveling Hoenn. The fourth, Strength, can be learned once Ziggy evolves into Linoone. Zigzagoon can also serve a second purpose: As you battle trainers, its nifty PickUp ability will filch items for you to use. Leave this in your party from start to finish, and by the end you should come out with your fair share of Rare Candies, PP Ups, and King's Rocks. Plus, the Nuggets they so often get will help line your pockets in a hurry. TROPIUS HM1(Cut) HM2(Fly) HM4(Strength) HM5(Flash) HM6(Rock Smash) The undisputed king/queen of the HM Whores, Tropius is able to learn any HM move other than the three water-related ones. Pick which four out of the five HM moves you find will be the most useful and you'll be set. Wild Tropius can be encountered on Route 119. WAILMER HM3(Surf) HM4(Strength) HM6(Rock Smash) HM7(Waterfall) HM8(Dive) An extremely common Pokemon found when fishing, Wailmer covers all the necessary HM moves required to navigate the waters of Hoenn, and can also use Strength and Rock Smash, if desired. Kanto: NIDOKING/NIDOQUEEN HM1(Cut) HM3(Surf) HM4(Strength) HM6(Rock Smash) It hardly matters matters which one you choose since they both learn the exact same HMs. Only Kindoking/Queen can learn Surf, but the former evolutions can learn any of the other moves listed. PSYDUCK HM3(Surf) HM4(Strength) HM5(Flash) HM6(Rock Smash) HM7(Waterfall) HM8(Dive)(R/S) This setup can be used just as easily in Ruby and Sapphire as it can in FireRed. Unfortunately, Psyduck and Golduck cannot be found in the wild in LeafGreen, so LG users won't be able to exploit Psyduck as an HM Whore unless a friend trades them one. SLOWPOKE HM3(Surf) HM4(Strength) HM5(Flash) HM6(Rock Smash)(Slowbro only) HM8(Dive)(R/S) Pretty much the same idea as Psyduck, but minus the use of Waterfall. Waterfall is only used in Icefall Cave on Island 4, anyways, so you won't miss it much. Also note that while Slowbro can use Rock Smash, Slowpoke cannot. Now that you have your HM Whore covered, let's move on. This next one is optional, but I find that it will prove useful in the longrun. UTILITY POKEMON This would be a Pokemon that bears moves that can help you out, be it in battle or in the overworld. You can also mix utility moves with HM moves that your HM Whore may not have been able to learn. Here are some examples of moves that can prove useful on your journey: COVET/THIEF So long as the Pokemon using it does not have a Hold-item, this move will steal the foe's held item and attach it to your own Pokemon. Using either of these moves is the easiest way to stock-up on Berries on FireRed and LeafGreen, since you won't be able to grow any yet wild Pokemon often hold them. It also makes stealing rare items, such as Cubone and Marowak's Thick Club, less tedious than if you were to have to capture them to see if they had it or not. TM46, Thief, can be found as early on as Mt.Moon in FireRed and LeafGreen, but Covet is a rarity in these two versions. In Ruby and Sapphire, TM46 can be found in Slateport City, and the move Covet is much easier to aquire. If you don't want to waste your Thief TM, then here is a list of Pokemon who learn thieving moves naturally: Hoenn Pokemon who learn Covet/Thief: Poochyena(Lv.45) Mightyena(Lv.52) Zigzagoon(Lv.29) Linoone(Lv.35) Lombre(Lv.37) Slakoth(Lv.31) Skitty(Lv.31) Illumise(Lv.37) Kanto Pokemon who learn Covet/Thief: Snorlax(Lv.45) As you can clearly see, players of FireRed and LeafGreen clearly get shafted, so you may be forced to use your Thief TM. If you are adamant about conserving it, however, there are other ways of nabbing a foe's held item, but they won't be as useful or as handy: Trick will trade items between the Pokemon using it and the foe, but the user must be holding an item and be willing to give it up. Kadabra and Mr.Mime are two examples of Pokemon who learn this. Knock Off won't get you the foe's held item, but it will at least let you see if they have anything. If you see something you want which has been knocked off, capture the Pokemon to get it. Even though you knocked it off, the Pokemon will still be holding it when caught. Krabby and Farfetch'd are two examples of Pokemon who learn this. DIG(TM28) Useful for escaping dungeons, and less expensive than Escape Ropes. The move comes from TM28, which can be purchased in Celadon for dirt cheap in FireRed and LeafGreen, and a single TM28 can be found on Route 114 in Ruby and Sapphire. SECRET POWER(TM43) An interesting attack that adds a status effect based on the terrain you're currently fighting in. It also allows you to make Secret Bases in the overwolrd in Ruby and Sapphire. In Ruby and Sapphire, after receiving one as a gift from a little boy on Route 111, they will be made available for sale in Slateport City's fleet market. In FireRed and LeafGreen, it can be found on Route 25 or purchased in the Celadon Dept. Store. Those are just some examples of useful moves that can help you in or out of battle. Like I said, a Utility Pokemon is completely optional. And you could also mix a Utility Pokemon with a second HM Whore, which would enable you to make a versatile slave such as: ZIGZAGOON: ~Covet ~Dig ~Cut ~Surf Now to move on to an important teammate no one can do without... CATCHER All-too often I hear complaints such as "i saw a shiney pokemon but my pokemon were too strong to hit it!" Well, if you had planned ahead of time for such occurances, that wouldn't have happened. That is where the Catcher comes into play. This Pokemon is going to fill your PC Boxes and Pokedex with whatever Pokemon your heart desires, while ensuring you waste as few Pokeballs as possible. Let's get into what makes a good Catcher: Sleep-inducing moves are more effective than you may think. As long as the Pokemon is not particularly strong or rare, putting an enemy to sleep then tossing a strong ball, such as an Ultra Ball, will usually capture it in the first attempt even though it has full HP. Obviously, this is never going to work on Pokemon such as Onix or Absol, as these sort of Pokemon are rarer and tend to be more difficult to capture. Be sure to leave weak moves on your catcher, so that if you need to attack the enemy Pokemon you don't knock them out by accident. Moves such as Rapid Spin, Knock Off, Rock Smash, and Tackle are good examples. They can inflict minor damage without killing much of anything. Sonicboom and Dragonrage always do 20 and 40 damage, respectively. They also can never critical hit, which helps you out a lot. Seismic Toss and Nightshade do damage identical to your level, and also don't score any critical hits. But, for the king of Pokemon-capturing moves, try and seek-out False Swipe. False Swipe is the absolute best move for capturing Pokemon. No matter how much damage it causes, the foe is always left with at least 1 HP. Let's take a look at the Pokemon who learn this useful move: Hoenn Pokemon who learn False Swipe: Groyvle(Lv.53) Sceptile(Lv.59) Seedot(egg move) Shroomish(egg move) Nincada(Lv.25) Mawile(egg move) Swablu(Pokemon Box owners only) Zangoose(Lv.55) Pinsir(egg move) Heracross(egg move) Kanto Pokemon who learn False Swipe: Spearow(egg move) Paras(egg move) Farfetch'd(Lv.46) Cubone(Lv.33) Marowak(Lv.39) Scyther(Lv.16) Pinsir(egg move) With this information, you'll wind-up with three Attackers, an HM-Whore, a Utility Pokemon(optional), and a Catcher. So now you should have built a team suitable for you to travel Hoenn/Kanto and perform all the major tasks required for you to complete your journey. If you're new to Pokemon and just starting out, then hopefully you've taken something out from reading this guide. Hopefully this information will serve you well as you play through the games. ~Rename Card

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) Matt Cullen scored 90 seconds into the game and again in a shootout to lift the Minnesota Wild to a 3-2 victory over Chicago on Wednesday, handing the Blackhawks their first loss in seven games this season.
Cullen's snap shot in the third round slipped between Corey Crawford's legs, and Patrick Sharp then hit the crossbar for Chicago. The Blackhawks and San Jose were the only teams to start 6-0 this year. The Wild improved to 4-1 at home.
Goals by Andrew Shaw and Jonathan Toews early in the first period prompted the Wild to pull goalie Josh Harding for Niklas Backstrom.
Cal Clutterbuck also scored for the Wild, and Backstrom stopped all 28 shots he saw.

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT: ANX) today announced that it has initiated patient recruitment in its pivotal phase 3 clinical study of ANX-188 (purified poloxamer 188) in sickle cell disease.
Santosh Vetticaden, Chief Medical Officer, said: "The substantial effort that went into the design of this study is reflected by the enthusiasm that we have heard from thought leaders and clinical sites who wish to participate. In particular, the study's primary endpoint, in which crisis resolution is based on the time at which subjects receive their last dose of parenteral opioid analgesic, provides a level of objectivity, specificity and reliability that is unattainable with endpoints based on pain scores or time to hospital discharge. We believe that ANX-188 has the potential to be the first FDA-approved product for sickle cell disease vaso-occlusive crisis in fifteen years."
Brian M. Culley , Chief Executive Officer, said: "ADVENTRX now is the only company with a new molecular entity in phase 3 for the treatment of sickle cell disease, a disease with significant unmet needs and which has been experiencing unprecedented levels of interest from both strategic partners and financial investors. We believe ANX-188 is well-positioned for regulatory and commercial success due in part to:
About EPIC (Evaluation of Purified 188 In Crisis)
The EPIC study is a randomized, double-blind, two-arm, placebo-controlled study that will be conducted at approximately 40 sites, primarily in the U.S. The primary objective is to demonstrate that ANX-188 reduces the duration of vaso-occlusive crisis in patients with sickle cell disease. The duration of vaso-occlusive crisis will be measured from the time a subject is randomized to the time at which the subject receives the last dose of parenteral opioid analgesic for the treatment of vaso-occlusive crisis prior to hospital discharge. A total of 388 subjects ages 8 to 17 who have sickle cell disease and are experiencing acute pain typical of vaso-occlusive crisis will be enrolled. Using a two-sided alpha of 0.05, the study has approximately 90% power to detect a 16-hour difference between treatment arms. Secondary endpoints will compare re-hospitalization rate (for vaso-occlusive crisis) within 14 days of initial discharge from the hospital and the occurrence of acute chest syndrome within 120 hours of randomization.

Forward Looking Statements
ADVENTRX cautions you that statements included in this press release that are not a description of historical facts are forward-looking statements that are based on ADVENTRX's current expectations and assumptions. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the prospects for ANX-188's clinical, regulatory and commercial success in sickle cell disease, including that ANX-188 may be the first FDA-approved product for sickle cell disease in several years, that the orphan-drug designation for poloxamer 188 (purified) is expected provide ANX-188 with seven years of post-approval exclusivity in the U.S., that fast track designation may result in a shortened timeframe for FDA review of a new drug application for ANX-188, and the potential for ANX-188 to be designated a drug for a rare pediatric disease and for ADVENTRX to receive a priority review voucher. Among the factors that could cause or contribute to material differences between ADVENTRX's actual results and those indicated from the forward-looking statements are risks and uncertainties inherent in ADVENTRX's business, including, but not limited to: the risk that the rate of enrollment in the EPIC study is slower than was anticipated prior to the study's initiation, including as a result of delays in opening study sites and difficulties in recruiting study subjects; the potential for further delays in the commencement or completion of planned clinical studies, including the phase 3 study of ANX-188 in sickle cell disease, including as a result of difficulties in completing manufacturing process development activities, manufacturing sufficient quantities of clinical trial material, meeting applicable regulatory requirements for clinical trial material, meeting applicable requirements of institutional review boards overseeing clinical study sites, negotiating agreements with potential clinical study sites, enrolling study subjects or being subject to a "clinical hold"; the impact of missing or imputed data on the treatment effect observed in the prior phase 3 study of ANX-188 in sickle cell disease; the risk of suspension or termination of a clinical study, including due to lack of adequate funding or patient safety concerns; ADVENTRX's reliance on contract research organizations (CROs) and other third parties to assist in the conduct of important aspects of EPIC and other clinical studies, and that such third parties may fail to perform as expected; the risk that planned clinical studies, including EPIC, are not successfully executed and/or do not successfully demonstrate the safety or efficacy of the investigational drug; the risk that, even if clinical studies are successful, the FDA determines they are not sufficient to support a new drug application; the risk that even if clinical studies of an investigational drug in one indication are successful, clinical studies of the same investigational drug in another indication may not be successful; ADVENTRX's ability to obtain additional funding on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, or at all; the potential for ADVENTRX to delay, reduce or discontinue current and/or planned development activities, including clinical studies, partner its product candidates at inopportune times or pursue less expensive but higher-risk and/or lower-return development paths if it is unable to raise sufficient additional capital as needed; the risk that the FDA does not grant marketing approval of ADVENTRX's product candidates, including ANX-188, on a timely basis, or at all; and other risks and uncertainties more fully described in ADVENTRX's press releases and periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

So by now, you've likely seen this tattoo on Rex's arm in the Daily News.
A part of me wants to say that this is just Gary Myers' TROLL SO HARD University schtick. Part of me wants to say it's Rex's body, that it's his prerogative to do with as he wants. Part of me wants to ask if this is just a gag he did on a dare during a rolicking drunken night with his wife. Part of me wants to know if he did for the sake of Mark as a way to buoy his beleagured quarterback. Part of me wants to know if it's some sort of short term memory kickstarter ... if you will, a Memento-esque way for him to never forget the trauma and lessons of the 2012 season in his never ending quest to find out how his career was murdered. Part of me wants to say it's sort of noble ... even if it is a tragically inbred and dimwitted sort of nobility ...
Part of me.
But the other part of me is going banonkers.
It couldn't be #12?!? Something CLASSIC AND INARGUABLE?
Why didn't he just go get a Vernon Gholston tattoo? That at least would be ironic. This is one is simply tragic.
The only thing I can liken it to is how Eric Mangini would name his children after players on the team in a desperate attempt to relate to players.
Imagine you are a Jets player today. Imagine some friend sends you that picture - probably in an attempt to mock you. How would you feel if you were on the 2012 team and you just saw that? Your coach got some ink with a player's number on the team, but not yours. Your coach wrote an corpuscular open letter to anyone to see that yes, in fact he does put one player above the rest of the team. You start to put 2012 in larger perspective. Your coach had questionable judgement all season about who his starting quarterback should be to "give the best chance to win." Should it be the guy who he had indelibly inked onto his bicep covering his wife's torso? Players just want to win, and Sanchez was doing his best to prevent that from happening ... now you see this tattoo?
Personally? I would be fuming. If I was a backup quarterback, I'd probably insight open insurrection. I'd go off the reservation and lay waste to the coaching staff. I'd share every dirty little secret about the 2012 team and I wouldn't feel any remorse for doing so.
Can he keep any credibility with his players after this? Can the ownership and upper management turn a blind eye to this? The whole thing about keeping Rex this offseason has been about his control on the players - how they never gave up for him all season. Is that still even possible?

On September 14, the Williams College football team drafted Brodie Vanaman, a six-year-old from Bennington, Vermont, who suffers from hormone growth deficiencies.
Brodie and the football Ephs were brought together through Team IMPACT, a New England based non-profit that pairs children with a variety of medical challenges with college sports teams. The Williams football team is the sixth Eph team to draft a member of Team IMPACT into their program.
Kevin Barbary '14 and Ayo Ekhator '15 met Brodie and some of his family members on campus at the Paresky Center. They gave Brodie a Williams' football, a team hat and other gear and played catch with Brodie on the Paresky lawn prior to the team draft meeting.
Eph head football coach Aaron Kelton joined the Eph football players, Brodie, and his family on the Paresky lawn and escorted the group to Griffin Hall for a team meeting. As Brodie entered the room the Eph team members and coaches greeted him with a standing ovation.
Kevin Barbary introduced Brodie to the team by explaining that he was the team's newest addition. Coach Kelton then had Brodie sign a "letter of intent", gave him a football team t-shirt and told him, "As a part of the team, all of the guys in the room are here to support you. You're on our team now."
Next Brodie's mom, Lisa Allen, explained how Brodie must receive multiple shots every night to help combat his hormone growth deficiencies. The Eph team was noticeably struck by this information. After a few pictures to commemorate the draft, a lot of handshakes and high fives were exchanged when Brodie agreed to support the team by coming back for practices and games.
After the draft and meeting the team, Brodie's mom Lisa commented that, "Brodie had such a good time. I'm so thankful for Team IMPACT. They have a great program and really give our little ones with special needs something to look forward to."
This relationship is just budding and everyone involved will benefit. Ayo Ekhator commented, "Team IMPACT is an opportunity to make a difference in Brodie's life, much in the same way that Eph football has impacted each of our lives. There's nothing like being a part of the team and we're incredibly fortunate to be the ones to help Brodie experience that."
Kevin Barbary mirrored Ekhator's excitement by saying, "Brodie is a great kid who loves football and we are psyched to have him be a part of our team moving forward. Being a part of the Williams football program is a unique privilege and we couldn't be happier to welcome one more guy to share the experience with."
Brodie and the Williams football team will learn from each other throughout the season and lean on each other when necessary.
To date, Team IMPACT has impacted thousands of people matching teams with children on over 160 campuses. Moving forward, Team IMPACT's primary goal is to find new children to be matched with teams.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...I find it next to impossible to bypass recipes for cheesecake or pound cake, so it was a given that when I stumbled on this recipe I would have to give it a try. The recipe comes from Bon Appetit magazine and I thought the citrus flavors would make a wonderful base for macerated fruit. Fresh berries have made their way to our markets and I wanted to sample the cake with berries to see if it would work as a simple Mother's Day dessert. Fortunately, I read the comments others had made, here, so I knew there were some problems associated with the recipe. I, who have grown too soon old and too late smart, decided to try it anyway and see what would happen. I'm glad I did. This cake has wonderful flavor and if you enjoy layers of citrus in your desserts, I suspect this recipe will quickly make it to your permanent rotation. I am, however, only cautiously recommending the recipe to you. While I did not experience the difficulties some reported, the fact that so many reported the same problem makes me leery to endorse it. Apparently, the cake has a tendency to sink as it cooks and that is more than mildly off putting if yours is the one that falls. I do hope, however, that some of you are adventurous enough to give this recipe a try. The cake is delicious and out of the ordinary. Here is how it is made.
Cream Cheese Pound Cake with Citrus Glaze...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of Bon Appetit magazine
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1-1/2 cups cake flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1-1/2 cups sugar, divided
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
2/3 cup cream cheese (5 ounces), room temperature
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1-1/4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
1/4 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
1 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1) Preheat oven to 350°. Coat 9 x 5-inch loaf pan generously with nonstick spray. Line bottom and long sides with parchment paper, leaving about 1-1/2-inch overhang. Coat paper with nonstick spray.
2) Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda into a medium bowl; set aside.
3) Combine 1-1/4 cups sugar and all zest in another medium bowl; set aside.
4) Using an electric mixer, beat butter and cream cheese in a large bowl until blended and smooth, about 2 minutes. Gradually beat in sugar mixture; beat on high speed until very light and fluffy, 3–4 minutes. Reduce speed to low; add eggs one at a time, beating to blend between additions and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in vanilla. (Make sure mixture is completely incorporated so flour won't clump when added.) With mixer on low speed, gradually add dry ingredients, mixing just to blend. Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth top.
5) Bake cake until top is golden brown and springs back when gently pressed with your fingertips and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 60–70 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cake cool in pan for 30 minutes.
6) Meanwhile, stir lemon juice and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until sugar is dissolved for lemon syrup. Using parchment-paper overhang as an aid, remove cake from pan; peel off and discard paper. Place cake top side up on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Using a skewer, pierce top of cake all over, inserting skewer about halfway through cake. Using a pastry brush, baste with lemon syrup. Use all of syrup plus any that may have dripped onto baking sheet. Let cake cool completely.
7) Meanwhile make glaze: Whisk sugar, lemon zest, orange zest, lime zest, orange juice, lemon juice
and lime juice in a medium bowl, straining mixture if desired. Pour over cake. Let cake stand at room temperature until icing is set, about 30 minutes. Yield: 8 to 10 servings.

Having sold out of reserved tent camping, Atlanta Motor Speedway has opened two new campgrounds to accommodate fans attending the speedway's first NASCAR Sprint Cup night race on Labor Day weekend, Sept. 5 and 6.
The Legends Reserved Tent Campground and Elliott Reserved Campground have been created by Atlanta Motor Speedway to meet surging camping demand for Atlanta's first full weekend of night racing, according to paddocktalk.com, a racing news service.
"With a host of fans eager to camp at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Labor Day weekend for our first NASCAR Sprint Cup night race, it was critical that we add additional camping spaces to meet fan demand," said Atlanta Motor Speedway president and general manager Ed Clark. "Two groups specifically – handicap camping and tents and popups – sold out rather quickly, so we wanted to provide additional camping opportunities for fans with these needs."
Atlanta Motor Speedway's Elliott Reserved Campground is located directly behind the Elliott Grandstand overlooking Turn 3 and will include two additional rows of camping for handicap patrons. The Elliott Reserved Campground also features a large number of sites adjacent to handicap camping for additional fans. Each RV spot is approximately 45 feet long by 25 feet and costs $150.
Shaded by a tree grove, the Legends Reserved Tent Campground is located between Atlanta Motor Speedway's main entrance and the Legends Campground. With more than 230 campsites with dimensions of 20 feet by 30 feet for $125, the Legends Reserved Tent Campground will be one of the most desired camping locations on the Atlanta Motor Speedway property, Clark predicted.

Farm Journal's Field Agronomist Ken Ferrie discusses the effects of a dry season on leftover nitrogen in Episode 9 of Corn College TV Season 3. He says that, unfortunately, much of the nitrogen leftover by the last season's failed crops leave nitrogen in water-soluble nitrate form.
Nitrate can be flushed out by heavy rainfall in the fall and spring, leaving the soil in need of an extra boost. Ferrie says that nutrients can be contained by using cover crops that will reduce losses, helping to keep in the nitrogen supply.
(Click here to order Corn College TV Education Series on DVD.)
"If you're growing soybeans next year after your failed corn crop," he says, "that may not be such a good thing because it could create a lazy soybean that has some trouble getting nodulated." However, a corn on corn crop will help to scavenge that leftover nitrogen.
Listen to Episode 9 below of Corn College TV Season 3 to learn more from Farm Journal Field Agronomist Ken Ferrie and Associate Field Agronomist Missy Bauer.

How Florida State and Ohio State Met in the 1998 Sugar Bowl
"They've been good forever."
Peyton Manning, a hometown product, entered the 1997 season as the most renowned quarterback in college football.
His team, the Tennessee Volunteers, was formidable, but was not seen as the SEC champion. Defending champion Florida held that distinction.
That changed as the season went along. The Gators did defeat the Vols, but lost later games to LSU and Georgia. Tennessee overcame its only loss to win the SEC East, then nipped Auburn 30-29 in the SEC championship game.
The problem for the Sugar Bowl was that the Vols inched to No. 3 in the polls. No. 1 Michigan was ticketed for the Rose Bowl, but the Orange Bowl, with its pick in the Alliance, grabbed Tennessee to play No. 2-ranked Nebraska.
The Sugar Bowl also was hoping to land a Big Ten team, three of which were hovering in the Top 10 most of the season, with Penn State a prime candidate. A 49-14 defeat to Michigan State removed the Nittany Lions from the picture. So on selection day the Sugar, using the third and fourth picks, took fourth-ranked Florida State (10-1) – the third time in four years the Seminoles would ring in the New Year in New Orleans – and ninth-ranked Ohio State (9-2).
There were some mild criticisms of the Sugar Bowl for not taking No. 6 UCLA, higher than Ohio State but with a reputation of not bringing many fans. "We looked at what we call the Five Rs," said Paul Hoolahan, the game's executive director, "record, rankings, (TV) ratings, reward (for the athletes), and (potential) revenue. In some form or fashion all of these factors were discussed. Ohio State fit the bill."
It really was a very good matchup. Florida State was felt by many to be the best team in college football, done in only by a narrow, last minute defeat to Florida. The Ohio State team, anchored by sophomore All-American linebacker Andy Katzenmoyer, was solid but very, very young with only four seniors in the Buckeyes' starting 22. A case could have been made that this could have been a preview of the national championship game of 1999. The Seminoles averaged 452 yards and 39 points a game; the Buckeyes averaged 412 yards and 31.7 points.
"This could be a heck of a game," said FSU coach Bobby Bowden. "You know, Ohio State has the name. We've been pretty good lately, but they've been good forever."
Story excerpted from the book "Sugar Bowl Classic: A History" by Marty Mulé, who covered the game and the organization for decades for the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Pay it forward: MWSS-373 supports Veterans Village of San Diego
By Lance Cpl. Jake McClung, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing
SAN DIEGO, CALIF. -- Marines with Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS) 373 supported the Veterans Village of San Diego during their 30th Annual Homeless Veteran Stand Down July 21 to 23, at San Diego High School in San Diego.
The stand down offered homeless veterans shelter and provided services such as medical care, dental care, legal assistance, haircuts and food for three days.
"MWSS-373 has been providing support to make this event possible, ranging from building and maintaining tents to setting up cots for over 2,000 homeless participants this year," said 1st Lt. Andrew Wallace, MWSS-373 site officer for the Veterans Village of San Diego.
Veterans Village of San Diego was established in 1981 with the goal of giving back to the community by assisting homeless veterans who face substance abuse or have mental health concerns. The organization is committed to its motto "leave no one behind" and provides services to more than 2,000 veterans each year.
"These are homeless veterans who have nowhere else to go so it is important for us to give them these services, whether it is putting food in their bellies or just providing them with a place to stay for a few days," said Cpl. Eddie Salazar, a communications technician with MWSS-373 and volunteer.
Marines with MWSS-373 provided equipment such as cots, tents, chairs and fork lifts; many also volunteered their time by preparing work stations and sleeping quarters, distributing food and drinks as well as greeting veterans attending the stand down.
The purpose of the Veterans Village of San Diego and the reason Marines with MWSS-373 support this event is to help rehabilitate these veterans and get them off the streets, said Salazar.
"The entire reason we are here is service, whether that be on the battlefield or serving the community," said Wallace.
