Soldier Defends Field Competition Titles, Gathers Invictus Gold Again
By Shannon Collins
DoD News, Defense Media Activity
ORLANDO, Fla., May 11, 2016 Medically retired Army Sgt. Monica Mo Southall defended her title by earning gold medals in the womens shot put and discus at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World during the 2016 Invictus Games here.
I was defending my title, and they knew that. So they were coming for me, but I pulled it off again, so Im happy, she said.
Southall said because of her injuries, her arms tend to give out a little bit after throwing discus first, so her shot put isnt as good as she likes, but she set a personal record for discus, 33.98 meters, more than 10 meters than her competitors.
*Not About Medals*
Southall competed in powerlifting and rowing May 9. Rowing isnt my event, but Im happy I went out there and finished both races. So, Im happy with that; same thing with powerlifting, she said. Even though I didnt medal, there was a time when I couldnt lift my arms. I had six months of recovery on both shoulders at one time within one year, so to be able to lift 159 pounds even though it didnt count, to be able to lift that, when at one time I couldnt even lift my arms, Its amazing.
Thats what events like this are for, she continued. Its not about the medals. Sometimes its about what you accomplish personally for yourself.
At the London Invictus Games in 2014, Southall took the gold medal in both shot put and discus, and a silver medal in wheelchair rugby and seated volleyball.
Her wife, Tempestt Southall, is proud of her.
I knew she was going to do it, Tempestt said, laughing. Shes incredible. Im very proud of her. You always get scared as a family member, but she represents Team USA really well. She did amazing. Shes an amazing athlete and an amazing person. Shes so humble. Every time she comes to a game, its great to see her with her fellow athletes. Its amazing.
Throughout the week, more than 500 wounded, ill and injured service members from 14 nations have been competing in 10 sporting events as they are cheered on by thousands of family members, friends and spectators.
Southall said the camaraderie among the athletes has been great. After receiving their medals, Army 1st Maj. Cpl. Pellegrina Caputo from the Italian team, who earned a gold medal in shot put in her disability category, asked her if they could switch jerseys.
Ive been bonding with athletes from all over the world and have loved the atmosphere in the village and in the field, so I wanted to keep this bond of friendship, Caputo said. She said she beat her own record when she earned her medal.
I was very happy. I cried, she said. It wasnt just about the medal, but about beating my previous record, so Im very happy.
Southall said she thought the shirt swap was really cool and that she loves the camaraderie. Everybodys so friendly and nice, just like they were in London, she said. They just carried it over here to Orlando. I just love that I can get along with people who are from other nations who may have the same issues as me. We are just one big family here.
Southall served 12 years in the Army National Guard as an automated logistical specialist. During a deployment to Afghanistan from 2008 to 2009, she was conducting inventory on top of a mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicle near Forward Operating Base Shank when ordnance from an airstrike landed too close.
Southall injured her knees, shoulders and spinal cord and has post-traumatic stress. She has undergone 14 surgeries. She said adaptive sports and events like the Department of Defense Warrior Games and the Invictus Games help her with her recovery process.
*Whats Next?*
Southall has earned several gold, silver and bronze medals at the Warrior Games since 2010. This years games next month at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York, she said, will be her final Warrior Games.
Im going to give my all and try to get the gold there as well, but its going to be very emotional, she said. As the attendant announces me and says, For the last time, Monica Southall when I do the shot and discus, Im going to try not to cry, but I think I will. Its going to be very emotional. But I need to give other soldiers a chance to compete who may need this to get them to the next step in their life, so Im willing to part with it.
She said she hopes to compete at next years Invictus Games in Toronto and at the Veterans Affairs Valor Games and Endeavor Games.

2012 Sunset Strip Music Festival to Pay Tribute to the Doors
The fifth annual Sunset Strip Music Festival, scheduled for Aug. 16-18 in Los Angeles, will pay tribute to the legacy of the Doors with a three-day celebration featuring performances from an eclectic array of well-known artists.
The lineup, announced yesterday (June 13) in a press release, makes plenty of room for acts not normally associated with the band -- or classic rock in general -- including Marilyn Manson, the Offspring, Steve Aoki, Bad Religion, De La Soul, and Das Racist. Black Label Society is also being listed as a "very special guest."
The press release promises that many of the bands performing "will celebrate the Doors by performing their take on some of the Doors' legendary songs," and if attendees can't get their music fix from the main event, which is being held outdoors on the Strip, they'll be able to duck into a variety of local venues -- including the Roxy and the Whisky A Go-Go -- to catch more than 50 other bands.
"The Doors are honored to be celebrated by the magical, legendary Strip," responded organist Ray Manzarek.
Added guitarist Robby Krieger, "A great leap forward from the "Summer Of Love" to today. What a great time we're going to have! The Sunset Strip. Live bands, loud music, Rock and Roll. It's the '60s all over again, and everyone is welcome. Dancing in the streets. Joy, Love, Peace. And we want to get it all together just One - More - TIME! Could this be the beginning of the new Golden Age? Let it be so." (Holy enthusiasm, Batman!)
"It's a thrill to be honored by The Sunset Strip Music Festival this year. Venice was our home, but The Doors lived and came of age on the Sunset Strip. It's exciting to see that the legacy we helped create is still alive and thriving today!" chimed in drummer John Densmore.
Tickets for the 2012 Sunset Strip Music Festival are on sale now via TicketWeb, and are being offered at a variety of levels, from a $75 general admission pass to a $250 VIP pass.

Gilbert was an excellent worker and was very clear with his explanations. He answered all my questions with confidence and knew exactly what he was talking about. He made my overall experience great. Thank you so much!
Jarid did a very thorough job showing us our new car. He's the man!! We couldn't be happier with his customer service, witty sense of humor and how easy he made our experience. I highly recommend going to Walser for your next car purchase.
Fast friendly service....
Kale did a phenomenal job with the whole process he was very welcoming and made me feel like I was buying from a best friend not a dealership. I would recommend walser and kale specifically for anyone looking for a new or used vehicle
This is my 2nd time buying a car through Walser and just like the first time, it was a great experience. My salesman, Kale Xiong, was not pushy and was able to answer all my questions. After dealing with salesmen at certain dealerships, this was very refreshing. I will be going back for my next car purchase!
Excellent. The service rep was great.
We had an amazing experience today at Walser Nissan in Burnsville. We called ahead interested in a specific model, and they had it pulled out ready for us to look at when we arrived. Friendly front staff, and we didn't have to wait for help long. Gil was the best sales associate we could have asked for. Gil made the process fun, thorough, and as enjoyable as possible. He kept us updated and informed through everything and was honest and great to work with. When we had questions, he immediately had an answer. Thank you for everything, we will ...

A street date broken by GameStop late last week had Demigod publisher Stardock scrambling to get enough multiplayer matchmaking servers up to handle the sudden rush of players.
GameStop was selling the real-time strategy PC game from Gas Powered Games as early as last Friday, days ahead of the planned April 15th street date. Those wondering why street dates are imposed need look no further than the post on the official Demigod forums, which details a ruined Easter weekend for many Stardock employees.
it was Easter weekend. And many of us had just finished a good solid 8 weeks of massive crunch and were looking forward to the weekend to recover. Instead, we found ourselves back at work having to turn on and configure the multiplayer matchmaking servers (we had enough for a beta but not for thousands of people).
The post also raises concerns that the early release maximizes piracy, as the game was only available through the one retail channel for several days, but Stardock looks on the bright side..."The good news, however, is that we'll get to actually see the effects of piracy". When life gives you lemons...
To help ease players' pains, Stardock released the game on their Impulse early, so the game is now available for purchase online.

Advanced Micro Devices is preparing to release two new energy-efficient processor platforms in the first half of this year.
"We're seeing more interest in performance-per-watt platforms and for highly energy-efficient, cost-optimized platforms," said Brent Kerby, senior product manager for the AMD Opteron processor.
But AMD also wanted to find a way to build a new series of chips that could evolve, using common design elements that didn't require new drivers with each new generation.
That's the idea behind AMD's new Opteron 6000 and 4000 series processor platforms. The platforms are aimed at what the chip maker is calling a sweet spot between the need for performance and need for maximum energy efficiency.
The new designs will replace AMD's three-tiered processor product line for servers. The platforms will be compatible with AMD's forthcoming Bulldozer Core architecture and are designed to provide greater cross-generational consistency and commonality, Kerby said.
The first of the two platforms — the 6000 series, code-named Maranello — is designed for maximum scalability and threading capability in large-scale virtualization installations that typically run, for instance, multiuser database applications. But it also will work well for large, dense deployments in which power concerns are important, such as Web and cloud computing installations.
The 6000 series platform will provide the foundation for eight- and 12-core AMD Opteron 6100 series x86 processors, code-named Magny-Cours, which are due for release in the first quarter of 2010. The 45-nanometer chips come with four memory channels for greater processing efficiency and are designed to support Enterprise Class two-way and four-way servers that use the G34 socket infrastructure. The design means the processor can fit in two-socket or four-socket installations. "So you no longer need to buy a four-socket processor" in instances where a more economical two-socket processor would do the job, Kerby said.
A more advanced, 32-nanometer chip with 12 and 16 cores, code-named Interlagos, is expected to be introduced in 2011.
The other platform, known as the 4000 series, is designed to operate at optimal energy efficiency, targeting large IT infrastructure deployments for which power and cooling cost efficiency are primary concerns. AMD will release two versions of the platform: A low-power version, called San Marino, and an ultra-low power version, called the Adelaide.
Both versions will use AMD's new line of 45-nanometer, four- and six-core 4100 series processors, code-named Lisbon, scheduled for release in the second quarter of 2010. A 32-nanometer, six- and eight-core processor, code-named Valencia, is slated to be launched in 2011, Kerby said.
The 4100 series processors are expected to be the first to operate at less than 6 watts per core, down from 10 watts per core in the current generation of chips, Kerby said. That's substantially less than the typical 89 watts consumed by single-core processors AMD offered as recently as 2003, he said.
Kerby declined to discuss AMD's pricing plans for the new chips. But the new performance gains and lowered energy costs are expected to please information technology managers and facilities managers who are keeping an eye on utility costs.
"Overall I believe AMD's roadmap is a smart one for the company as well as good for the consumer," observed Daniel P. Harrington, a research analyst at IDC specializing in enterprise servers. "The 4000 and 6000 lines were designed specifically with customer application in mind, from those looking for performance or high density, to those looking for extreme power efficiency," he said. "At 12 cores, the Magny-Cours platform represents an significant jump in core-count to the market. The exponential jump in core counts year to year is expected to cause somewhat of a disruption in the server market as users begin to look at these solutions as a value proposition as opposed to the legacy thinking of x86 as a commodity," he said.
"What will be interesting to see is how these products are priced compared to their other processor lines," Harrington said. "My belief is that it will be priced at a premium ... as to not cannibalize their lower core (products). At both 2P (processor) and 4P configurations, users are expected to enjoy a significant performance boost, especially those running highly parallel applications," Harrington said.

Happy Thursday everyone!
I spent most of last night working on a craft project that I'm excited to show you! That means that blogging took a backseat so for Current Crush today, I used Polyvore for the first time. INCREDIBLE! So much easier than creating my own collages in Photoshop. Further proof that I pick the HARDEST way of accomplishing things. Anyhoot, here's some fall essentials I'm dying to own!
Link up with the lovely Danielle!
Current Crush: Fall Fun
I've really grown to LOVE layering in the fall, especially because the fabrics of winter are SO forgiving (knits and leggings FTW!). Nothing like an oversized sweater thrown over a tank top and some brown boots. I LOVE summer even with the sweltering heat but every once in awhile, fall just feels so good. Plus, when the weather changes it reminds me that Christmas is right around the corner (Oh yea, I went there. I mentioned Christmas in August, hate me if you will). 29 days until Fall hits!
What part of fall fashion is your favorite? Boots? Sweaters? Leggings?
Happy Thursday loves!
P.S. Thank you for ALL of your encouraging words on yesterday's post! Each little bit of encouragement is pushing me harder (I drank over 80 oz of water by 4 pm…crazy!) and I'm so happy to hear other bloggers want to jump on the fitness train with me. I'm going to think of some ways that we can share some of our fitness tips and support each other. 🙂 Stay tuned.

Big Eubank fan TBH could have been regarded as a great better fighter if he would have went to America & faught the likes of Michael Nunn, James Toney & Roy Jones. I hink he would have given them all problems as you said he had a granite chin, excellent skills and decent power in his right hand. But after the 2nd Watson fight he lost a his hunger and got lazy inbetwen fights often having to boil down to weight too close to a fight. which I suppose is understandable under the circumstances. Anyway he decided to take on a bum of the month tour around Europe with only Roccogiani being a decent win. I still think he his twice the fighter Collins ever was. Collins for me doesn't get enough stick for having the weakest World title run ever look at his defences a shot Benn twice, Nevile Brown, Cornelius Carr, Craig Cummings etc and bottled it at short notice when Calzaghe became number one contender (knowing he would get his arse kicked) Eubank replaced Collins at 2 weeks notice giving Calzaghe his hardest fight to date.
Eubank would also later step up two weights and have 2 wars with Carl Thompson at Cruiser Weight the first getting fight of the year.

Euler diagrams are similar to Venn diagrams, in that both compare distinct sets using logical connections. Where they differ is that a Venn diagram is bound to show every possible intersection between sets, whether objects fall into that class or not; a Euler diagram only shows actually possible intersections within the given context. Sets can exist entirely within another, termed as a subset, or as a separate circle on the page without any connections - this is known as a disjoint. Furthering the example outlined previously, if a new set was introduced - birds - this would be shown as a circle entirely within the confines of the mammals set (but not overlapping sea life). A fourth set of trees would be a disjoint - a circle without any connections or intersections.
Usage for Venn diagrams has evolved somewhat since their inception. Both Euler and Venn diagrams were used to logically and visually frame a philosophical concept, taking phrases such as some of x is y, all of y is z and condensing that information into a diagram that can be summarized at a glance. They are used in, and indeed were formed as an extension of, set theory - a branch of mathematical logic that can describe objects relations through algebraic equation. Now the Venn diagram is so ubiquitous and well ingrained a concept that you can see its use far outside mathematical confines. The form is so recognizable that it can shown through mediums such as advertising or news broadcast and the meaning will immediately be understood. They are used extensively in teaching environments - their generic functionality can apply to any subject and focus on my facet of it. Whether creating a business presentation, collating marketing data, or just visualizing a strategic concept, the Venn diagram is a quick, functional, and effective way of exploring logical relationships within a context.
The structure of this humble diagram was formally developed by the mathematician John Venn, but its roots go back as far as the 13th Century, and includes many stages of evolution dictated by a number of noted logicians and philosophers. The earliest indications of similar diagram theory came from the writer Ramon Llull, whos initial work would later inspire the German polymath Leibnez. Leibnez was exploring early ideas regarding computational sciences and diagrammatic reasoning, using a style of diagram that would eventually be formalized by another famous mathematician. This was Leonhard Euler, the creator of the Euler diagram.
A Venn diagram, sometimes referred to as a set diagram, is a diagramming style used to show all the possible logical relations between a finite amount of sets. In mathematical terms, a set is a collection of distinct objects gathered together into a group, which can then itself be termed as a single object. Venn diagrams represent these objects on a page as circles or ellipses, and their placement in relation to each other describes the relationships between them. Commonly a Venn diagram will compare two sets with each other. In such a case, two circles will be used to represent the two sets, and they are placed on the page in such a way as that there is an overlap between them. This overlap, known as the intersection, represents the connection between sets - if for example the sets are mammals and sea life, then the intersection will be marine mammals, e.g. dolphins or whales. Each set is taken to contain every instance possible of its class; everything outside the union of sets (union is the term for the combined scope of all sets and intersections) is implicitly not any of those things - not a mammal, does not live underwater, etc.
Logician John Venn developed the Venn diagram in complement to Eulers concept. His diagram rules were more rigid than Eulers - each set must show its connection with all other sets within the union, even if no objects fall into this category. This is why Venn diagrams often only contain 2 or 3 sets, any more and the diagram can lose its symmetry and become overly complex. Venn made allowances for this by trading circles for ellipses and arcs, ensuring all connections are accounted for whilst maintaining the aesthetic of the diagram.

Long before he was leading Lipscomb to Atlantic Sun glory, head coach Bill Taylor was building a power running program at Northwest University outside of Seattle. Taylor turned a small-school program into a national NAIA power that won the 2002 NAIA Women's Cross Country National Championship.
In March, Taylor's 2002 team will be inducted into the Northwest University Athletic Hall of Fame. Though not the culmination of a coaching career, it's another in a satisfying line of honors for Taylor.
"When I took the Northwest job, I declared that we would win a national title," Taylor said. "People laughed at me. It took a while, but we proved it could be done. The goal is the same now at Lipscomb."
Taylor has been coaching since 1990, when he picked up a job at Lake Stevens (Wash.) High School, his alma mater. He left there after two years for a short stint at Westmont (Calif.) College before returning to the Washington.
"When we moved back, I had a huge desire to coach collegiately," Taylor said. "So I started contacting community colleges and four-year colleges that didn't have programs to see if they would let me start one. I'm not sure why I did that instead of just volunteering at a college that already had a program.
"At the time, Northwest had been talking about adding another sport. Since cross country is the cheapest sport to add, I was brought in to create the program from scratch."
Taylor's beginnings at Northwest were humble, to say the least. A small Bible college in the upper northwest, the Eagles were a member of the NCCAA (National Christian College Athletics Association) when Taylor was hired in 1994.
"We had very old facilities when I first started there," Taylor said. "A new soccer and volleyball coach were hired when I was. We didn't have offices at the time, so we found an empty supply closet and an old desk on a junk heap and converted it into an office for all three of us.
"That was the beginning of my collegiate career, and there I was predicting a championship. I think people were right to laugh at me at that time."
Slowly, Taylor started building a power. Northwest moved to the NAIA in 1997-98, just as the program was taking off. Over the next five years, Northwest would become an NAIA power.
Although the 2002 team brought the school its first championship in any sport, it wasn't an easy road. The 2001 team entered the national championships ranked first in the nation, but stumbled to a seventh-place finish.
"We were crushed after the 2001 finish," Taylor said. "I got too wrapped up in winning a title and lost sight of my coaching philosophy. The best thing that happened to my coaching career was not winning the title in 2001; it reset me and brought me back to why I was a coach in the first place. And as it turned out, the world didn't end when we lost. That gave me new perspective."
The 2002 season was a different story. A more relaxed group led by a more relaxed coach brought the school its first-ever national championship.
"I got into coaching to help kids," Taylor said. "I love to win, but that's not why I became a coach. We talked about rankings a lot in 2001; I never posted a ranking in 2002. We spent more time talking about getting better and running races the same way. Nationals was just another race for us that year."
Even though Taylor acknowledges that recruiting and winning on the Division I level is different from the NCCAA/NAIA level, many of the values he instills in his Lipscomb programs are born from his time at Northwest.
"It's easier to recruit at the Division I level," Taylor said. "While the process is easier here, we were doing the same things at Northwest. I learned quickly that you build a program on character. You'd like to get the fastest kids you possibly can but at the end of the day it's more about getting the right fit.
"We looked for people that believed, would work well together and were growing spiritually at Northwest. Now at Lipscomb, we're looking for the exact same kind of kids."
Following the 2004 season, Taylor resigned from his post at Northwest; he took two years away from coaching on the college or high school level, doing a bit of work via e-mail with former Northwest star Kristina Proticova but staying away from coaching in the interim.
"Our first daughter (Bella) was born in April of that year," Taylor said. "So I stayed home with her and tried not to think about coaching. I was a bit burnt out and didn't know if God wanted me to continue to coach.
"Late in that year, I was reading the book "Wild at Heart" by John Eldridge, and it talked about how if you have something good on your heart and it stays there loud and clear and doesn't go away, you should consider it as God's voice and direction. It's on your heart and you should be obedient. And coaching was still on my heart; it hadn't left me."
He wasn't the only one who felt it was time to get back in to coaching.
"At the same time I was realizing I should go back to coaching, my wife Tabetha came to me and said she had been praying and felt it was time for me to get back into coaching," Taylor said. "She had previously not wanted me to go back to coaching, because it's a difficult life sometimes. So it was clear what we needed to do, if not how we needed to do it."
Getting back into coaching would prove to be more difficult.
"I wanted to coach in Division I," Taylor said. "We had created a unique athlete-centered program at Northwest, and it wasn't being utilized at Division I. I wanted to prove we could make that work at this level. Unfortunately, breaking into the Division I level is hard to do."
Undaunted, Taylor e-mailed Division I coaches all over the country asking if they had any positions for graduate assistants or volunteer coaches. After receiving responses and praying, he and his wife chose to relocate to Nashville, where Belmont was offering a volunteer coaching position.
"We sold most of our stuff, put the house on the market and prepared to move to Nashville," Taylor said. "We had no idea how we were going to make it work, without jobs other than volunteer coaching and no place to live.
"The very next day, Tabetha got a call from a job she didn't even remember applying for… in Nashville! Within the month, she was offered the job and accepted."
When Lipscomb began searching for a new coach for its cross country and track programs in 2007, one of the first candidates for the job was Lipscomb grad Willie Steele. Steele, who had just taken a teaching job, didn't know if he could give that up and gave Lipscomb Taylor's name. Taylor had left Belmont by then and was searching for his next coaching opportunity.
"I was hired on an interim basis while Willie made his final decision," Taylor said. "When he let them know he couldn't take it, I was offered the position permanently. The rest, as they say, is history."
Since taking over at Lipscomb in 2007, Taylor has built the Bison brand into one of the best teams in the Southeast. In addition to being the newly-minted A-Sun champions, both the men and women's track programs were named academic All-American programs by the USTFCCCA last year.
Taylor says the best thing about his coaching is the memories of his teams.
"At the end of the day, winning championships won't stay with you," Taylor said. "When I go back for the induction, we won't reminisce about how fun it was to win a title; we're proud of it and wouldn't give it away for anything. But the value of coaching is the stories and memories of your teams.
"It felt great to win the title. It was a tremendous accomplishment, but it was more about the team, the relationships and the stories we had. The national championship was a bonus."

DMB taper gauges
SKF taper gauges in the DMB series enable a quick and accurate check of the diameter and the angle of external tapers. They are suitable for final checks as well as for intermediate checks during machining. DMB taper gauges are available for tapered seats from d = 40 to 360 mm (→ product table).
DMB taper gauges (fig.1) consist of:
- two saddles (a), firmly joined together at a fixed distance
- a gauge pin (b), positioned in each of the saddles
- two adjustable radial stops (c and d), in each saddle at 90° intervals from the gauge pin
- an axial stop (e) to locate the gauge axially on the taper
The gauge pins and the radial stops can be set to measure any taper angle between 0° and 6° and any diameter within the range of the gauge. Markings on the scales show the settings for 1:12 and 1:30 tapers.
As standard, DMB taper gauges are supplied together with two dial indicators. Tailored reference tapers can be supplied on request.
Set the radial stops and straight edges of the gauge pins to the desired diameter and taper angle, using the scales. Then, adjust the axial stop on the taper to be measured. Put the gauge on a reference taper and set the dials to zero. The gauge is now ready to take measurements.
To take a measurement, put the DMB taper gauge on the taper to be measured, making sure that it is up against the axial stop. Then take a reading. The readings on the dials are the diameter deviations. A difference in the readings between the two dials indicates a deviation in the taper angle.
While measuring, the gauge should be inclined at about 10° from the horizontal plane (fig.2). In this position, the gauge is located on the taper by the radial and axial stops.
The measuring accuracy of DMB taper gauges is within 1 μm for d < 280 mm and within 1,5 μm for d ≥ 280 mm.

Simon Cowell releases charity single featuring Rita Ora, Liam Payne
LONDON (AP) — A charity single produced by Simon Cowell is being released to help victims of the devastating fire that killed at least 79 people in west London.
Some 50 artists are included on the recording of Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water. The singers included Rita Ora, Robbie Williams, Liam Payne and Jessie J.
Grime star Stormzy opens the single, rapping: "I don't know where to begin so I'll start by saying I refuse to forget you/I refuse to be silenced/I refuse to neglect you/That's for every last soul up in Grenfell/Even though I've never even met you."
The single released Wednesday marked a week since the blaze, which ripped through the apartment building in the early hours of June 14, when many of the residents were home asleep.

Bedard will make first start Tuesday at Seattle
HOUSTON -- Left-hander Erik Bedard will make his first start of the season Tuesday at Seattle. Bedard had been originally penciled in to start Saturday against Oakland, but Thursday's off-day allowed manager Bo Porter to give No. 1 starter Bud Norris an extra turn Saturday.
"When you're No. 5 [in the rotation], I guess that's how it is," Bedard said.
Bedard did pitch 3 1/3 innings of one-hit relief in Sunday's Opening Night win over the Rangers, earning the save. It was Bedard's first appearance out of the bullpen since 2004 with the Orioles.
"That's a big difference," Bedard said of pitching in relief. "I got lucky. I don't think I'll do any more of that. I'll probably just stick with starting."
Porter said he did not consider using Bedard in Friday night's blowout loss to the A's.
"If you're going to bring a guy out of the bullpen who's going to be in the rotation, you want them to get the full complement of rest," Porter said. "With Bedard starting on Tuesday, I didn't think that would be fair for him, having him pitch out of the bullpen [Friday] night and make a start Tuesday."
The Astros are Bedard's fifth Major League club. He has appeared in 193 games in the Majors, 189 of them as a starter.
Bedard, a native of Ontario, Canada, signed a Minor League contract with the Astros in January after going 7-14 with a 5.01 ERA last year with the Pirates.
"I thought it was a good fit," Bedard said of signing with the Astros. "They had a lot of young guys, and a lot of energy. I thought it would be fun to come here."
Bedard never thought about pitching in Triple-A this season.
"If I didn't make the team, I don't know if I would have gone to the Minors," he said. "Not too much fun. In my mind, I was going to make the team. That's what you've got to put your mind to doing. And I made it."
Bedard, 34, is the oldest player on the roster, born two months before Carlos Pena. Did joining the youthful Astros make him feel older?
"You've got that right," Bedard said. "Last year, I wasn't the oldest guy in Pittsburgh. When I came over here in spring, oh my God, I think I'm the oldest guy on the team. It makes you realize you are old in the sports world. When you're young, time doesn't go by fast. When you get older, how did it go by so fast? Mentally, you feel like you're still young."

Although bacterial and viral infections are rarely serious, they can, left untreated, interfere with your child's development and sap their energy.
Bacteria vs. viruses
Bacterial and viral infections often produce the same symptoms but are not caused by the same mechanisms. Simply put, bacterial infections are caused by bacteria and viral infections are caused by viruses. Some bacterial and viral infections are contagious, others are not.
What are bacteria?
Bacteria are actually tiny, living organisms that make people sick when they get into the body. Bacteria can grow on surfaces such as countertops and door handles where your child can pick them up by touching things. They can also be spread from person to person. Bacterial infections can be treated with antibiotics.
What are viruses?
Unlike bacteria, a virus is not a living organism, but rather a bit of genetic material that requires a living organism, like a person, an animal, or a plant, to grow and multiply. And, unlike bacteria, viruses can't survive for long on surfaces. Viruses are treated with antiviral medications.
A word about antibiotics
Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections. Antibiotics cannot be used to treat viral infections. Due to the overuse of antibiotics to treat and prevent all types of infections, some bacteria and viruses have become resistant to treatment, meaning that people have to take antibiotics in larger doses and for longer periods to kill the bug making them sick. Scientists worry that antibiotics may eventually become useless if we don't stop overusing them.
So, listen to your child's doctor, give your child his medication as directed, and continue giving your child all his medication even if he feels better after a day or two. The key to ensuring antibiotics will always work when your child needs them is to use them as prescribed.

John McCain's 'Me First' Reckless Strategy Imperils US Security
What manner of reckless narcissistic ambition is this? The American public have caught up to McCain's new motto, 'me first.' That's why by an overwhelming 75% registered voters in a survey published in The New York Times yesterday declared that McCain has selected Palin not because of her qualifications, but because he wanted to win and become president.
[Black Star News Editorial]
[Black Star News Editorial]
The twin threats against the United States and by implication much of world stability are the economic tumult that's rocking the nation and continued warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Republican candidates, John McCain and Sarah Palin cannot meet these challenges judging by their recent pronouncements.
Running the government of the United States of America is not a gimmick; McCain lost his mind with his VP running mate selection.
McCain and Palin do not have the grasp necessary to arrest the economic freefall and establish the framework for recovery.
It was Senator Barack Obama who warned that the nation should expect more economic shocks, several months ago, as anyone can establish by visiting his website www.barack.com and seeing his speeches.
Obama has been preparing an economic recovery plan for when he gets into office; several thousands of jobs can be created by reconstructing the nations
collapsing infrastructure, rather than Iraq's.
McCain, shockingly and irresponsibly boasted months ago that he knew nothing about the economy, prompting his then Republican rival, Mitt Romney, to warn of impending disaster with McCain as president; how dare McCain aspire to be president and concede that he has no plan to create jobs so Americans can feed their families and save their homes.
On the national security front, granted, McCain has the experience of war. Yet, Obama has shown superior wisdom and judgment.
Obama warned months ago that Afghanistan would flare up, unless the United States shifted troops and materiel from Iraq; his warning has now been vindicated. Separately, Obama called for a timeframe for withdrawal from the Iraq occupation, which is milking $120 to $150 billion a year from the US Treasury; money that could be used to jump start the economy and create productive jobs.
Even the Bush White House and Iraq Prime Minister Nouri Kamal al-Maliki now agree with Obama's plan, as opposed to McCain's vision for 100-years occupation. Evidently, McCain might have thought the cost of the war would not have adverse impact on the U.S. economy, as it now is.
Most disturbingly however, McCain has ditched his motto of 'country first,' to satisfy his egotistical quench for the presidency.
In a world of al-Qaeda, Taliban, a resurgent belligerent Russia, and other radical groups, why would McCain mortgage the United States' national security by choosing as his running mate the eminently unqualified Alaska governor Sarah Palin? He well knows that he is well past the prime of youth and in questionable health. Instead of reassuring the nation, and selecting someone prepared to be president on day one, as Obama did, McCain chose to address his own selfish needs.
Many people, including Democrats have denounced Obama, declaring that he should have selected Hillary Clinton to ensure vistory. But Obama believes in country first; that Joseph Biden would be a better Vice President, with steady hands and scandal-free.
What manner of reckless narcissistic ambition is this displayed by McCain? The American public have caught up to McCain's new motto, 'me first.' That's why by an overwhelming 75% registered voters in a survey published in The New York Times yesterday declared that McCain has selected Palin not because of her qualifications, but because he wanted to win and become president.
Any man who would gamble away the lives of Americans for his own naked ambitions does not deserve to be president at all.

Faculty / Organisational entity
We present a particle method for the numerical simulation of boundary value problems for the steady-state Boltzmann equation. Referring to some recent results concerning steady-state schemes, the current approach may be used for multi-dimensional problems, where the collision scattering kernel is not restricted to Maxwellian molecules. The efficiency of the new approach is demonstrated by some numerical results obtained from simulations for the (two-dimensional) BEnard's instability in a rarefied gas flow.
In the present paper we investigate the Rayleigh-Benard convection in rarefied gases and demonstrate by numerical experiments the transition from purely thermal conduction to a natural convective flow for a large range of Knudsen numbers from 0.02 downto 0.001. We address to the problem how the critical value for the Rayleigh number defined for incompressible vsicous flows may be translated to rarefied gas flows. Moreover, the simulations obtained for a Knudsen number Kn=0.001 and Froude number Fr=1 show a further transition from regular Rayleigh-Benard cells to a pure unsteady behavious with moving vortices.
We derive a new class of particle methods for conservation laws, which are based on numerical flux functions to model the interactions between moving particles. The derivation is similar to that of classical Finite-Volume methods; except that the fixed grid structure in the Finite-Volume method is substituted by so-called mass packets of particles. We give some numerical results on a shock wave solution for Burgers equation as well as the well-known one-dimensional shock tube problem.

Alfred's Kitchen
Western Australia, Australia
Back in 1946, before anyone in Australia had even heard of wagyu beef or brioche buns, a man by the name of Alfred Cook opened up a small caravan and began grilling hamburgers for the good people of Guildford. Who knew that'd it'd become the most well-known burger joint in the western state? Along with some seriously mouth watering meals on offer, the fact that Alfred's is open until the wee hours of the night means that a certain kind of loyalty begins to be established. So when the oldies who used to party, they'd pop in for a late night "sponge-bath" to soak up their alcohol filled stomach. Once that generation's idea of a big night turns into 2 glasses of wine and a night at the pictures, those fond memories and stories get passed onto their kids.. and so on. Today's menu consists of some of the more traditional burgers but then ventures into some super sized burgers that put any regular Lot Burger to shame. I tried to go with something they might've served back in the 1940's and ordered a Hamburger with Cheese that came with a traditional burger bun, beef pattie, tomato, lettuce, onion and a bbq sauce.

Cast on
|I'm new to Interweave Knits, and new to blogging. Every day, I'm doing something for the first time and it can be daunting trying to figure out how to get started and what to do next. As I thought about this blog, what to write, how to get started, a very simple concept from knitting guided me, "Just cast on." New projects can be intimidating, but the garment grows one stitch at a time. As each stitch is laid down, the next stitch becomes more apparent. For most projects, my favorite cast-on is the long-tail cast-on. I can get this on the needles with barely a second thought, it's automatic, but it took some time in the beginning for it to become so. In this instance, I am drawn to the cast-on for the Charvet Pullover in the Winter 2010 issue of Interweave Knits. Cast on one stitch and then begin to knit, gradually increasing on successive rows. This is the approach I am taking to my new job. I'm still laying down the first couple rows, but my project, my work life, is beginning to take shape.

UH Introduces Co-Founding Directors of New Cinematic and Digital Arts Program
University aiming to develop one-of-a-kind film program with Asian Pacific focusUniversity of Hawaiʻi
Kristen Cabral, (808) 956-5039
Public Information Officer
The University of Hawaiʻi today announced the beginning steps in a process to establish a curriculum, raise capital, and initiate partnerships and support towards the establishment of a new Cinematic and Digital Arts Program — the first and only film curriculum in the country that will focus primarily on the unique heritage and stories of Hawaiʻi, Asia, and the Pacific. The establishment of a film program, envisioned and long-anticipated throughout the state, will be led by two cinematic visionaries, Hollywood producer Chris Lee and UH Professor of Theatre Glenn Cannon.
"The idea of a motion arts program has long been a vision of the University System. Today is the beginning of a new era — UH, along with the legislature, has initiated the process of bringing that vision to fruition with the guidance and support of two remarkable and accomplished gentlemen, co-directors Chris Lee and Glenn Cannon," said UH President Evan Dobelle. "Chris and Glenn are dedicated to developing this concept from the ground up — they have the knowledge and resourcefulness that will someday lead to a new standard of educational excellence and innovation in the cinematic and digital arts."
The first students began the certificate program this semester (Fall 2002). Current requirements will take advantage of existing resources through the Liberal Studies Program with a curriculum based in two areas. First, candidates will be able to choose from over 100 courses already being offered in film, video, music, animation, television, acting, directing, and scripting. Second, students will have over 400 courses available to them on the culture, history, and languages of Asia and the Pacific. After a strong curriculum has been identified, sufficient funds have been raised, and industry partnerships have been developed the program will be presented to the Board of Regents for approval of a Bachelor of Arts degree in Cinematic and Digital Arts in the Department of Theatre and Dance. The legislature has already approved $1 million in planning funds for a new building to house this and other programs on the UH Mānoa campus. Once space is completed and pending the approval of the Board of Regents, a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree may be offered, which will provide an even stronger hands-on experience and emphasis in production.
"When I graduated from ʻIolani High School I had to go outside my native Hawaiʻi to follow my dreams of working in the film industry. I want to encourage the students of Hawaiʻi, Asia, and the Pacific to consider the creative arts as ways to tell their own stories and explore their imaginations," said Chris Lee, co-founding director of the Cinematic and Digital Arts Program. "The beauty of our state is inspiring, the creative talent of our students is undeniable, and our unique location makes this program poised to be among the most distinctive in the world."
Lee is former president of production for TriStar Pictures and Columbia Pictures. Raised in Hawaiʻi, he is the first minority and Asian American to run a Hollywood studio. During his tenure as an executive, he was responsible for such Academy Award-winning films as "Jerry Maguire," "Philadelphia," and "As Good As It Gets." He was also involved in other hits including "My Best Friend's Wedding," "The Mask of Zorro," "Starship Troopers," and "The Patriot." However, Lee is probably best known in Hawaiʻi for his involvement as producer of the groundbreaking computer animated feature "Final Fantasy" for Square Pictures and Columbia Pictures. Based on the popular video game series, a majority of the film was produced here in Hawaiʻi.
Glenn Cannon, a 34-year veteran of teaching, acting, and directing at UH Mānoa, is also a co-founding director. Cannon has spent the last 10 years focusing on developing and teaching courses specifically related to acting for film and television. He is the current president of the Screen Actors Guild, Hawaiʻi branch, and has served as its president for the past 10 years.
"The opportunity for UH students to study film has been a dream of mine for a number of years. The core of our program will be based on cultivating our young students and encouraging them to consider a career in sharing the indigenous stories of their unique culture and people with the camera," said Cannon. "We will also seek to create partnerships with institutions and professional companies throughout the world, and bring in industry experts to offer seminars, workshops, and teach classes within the curriculum."
Cannon brings 50 years of experience as a professional actor in television and film, and Broadway and Off Broadway productions.

Saturday July 12 street rods, customs, street machines and special interest vehicles of all types gathered at the headquarters of Coker Tire in Chattanooga, Tennessee. One of the reasons for the get-together was to give the participants on the Coker Tire Tour a great send-off as they hit the highway with the Syracuse Nationals as their final destination. A more important reason for the gathering was to raise money for The Victory Junction Gang Camp for kids in Randleman, North Carolina. Started by Pattie and Kyle Petty to honor their son Adam, the Victory Junction Gang Camp is a year round facility for children with physical disabilities. The Camp operates solely on donations from corporations and private individuals.
Over 100 cars were at Coker Tire for the send off and to participate in the silent auction. Items were donated by companies in the street rod industry including Holley, AMSOIL, Weiand, Grant Steering Wheels, The Right Coast Association, Edlebrock, Street Rodder Magazine, Classic Automobilia, Hooker Headers, Honest Charlies, California Car Cover and Hot Rod Magazine. From pedal cars to metal signs, carburetors to jackets all of the items were bid on vigorously throughout the afternoon. When the dust cleared at 4:30 $2300 had been raised to help the folks at The Victory Junction Camp. We will be delivering the proceeds from the auction to the Camp in Randleman on Monday afternoon.
A highlight of the day's activities at Coker Tire was a look at the newly renovated museum and restoration facility. The collection of classic vehicles on display was incredible and included an entire wall covered with fantastic motorcycles both restored and original. Corky Coker was on hand all afternoon to greet everyone in attendance and give us some background on both the vehicles on display and some history of the company that is celebrating their 50th Anniversary this year. Also open on Saturday was Honest Charley's Speed Shop which is celebrating its 60th year in business. Now operated by Mike Goodwin Honest Charley's continues its tradition of carrying a huge parts selection and a friendly and courteous staff that knows all about the products that they sell.
It was a great day in Chattanooga for everyone in attendance. The participants got a chance to show off their vehicles to an appreciative crowd and the Victory Junction Gang Camp benefited from the generosity of the companies who donated products and the many folks who bid on them.
The Coker Tire Tour has just begun. We have some great stops planned on our way to the Syracuse Nationals including our stop at the Victory Junction Gang Camp on Monday. Check back here all week and I will report on our progress as we travel to New York.

Japan coach Masayosi Manabe: "Kurihara and Sakoda played better than expected, serving and spiking well. This was the first time for them to be in the starting lineup. This tournament is a hard schedule, so we have to fight as a team. And that's why I put them in."
Japan player Megumi Kurihara: "The team was in good shape and it was great that we could play all three sets well until the end. But personally I felt I wasn't able to play that well in the third set."
Japan player Ai Yamamoto: "Overall we were able to utilize our speed. I felt good attacking because their blocking was not so organized."
Japan player Saori Sakoda: "Until now I didn't pay much attention about where to place the ball, but now I can see and decide the placement. My spike was functioning well because the service reception and setting was good."
Algeria player Faiza Tsabet: "The first set we played well, after the second set we let the Japan team play their game. The third set was ok, but as you could see from the result it was all Japan's game."
Algeria coach Ikhedji Mouloud: "First I'd like to congratulate the Japan team. Japan played fast, and in the second set we didn't play well and that allowed Japan to take the lead. The Japan team is very strong I think. In the third set our rhythm came back, but Japan had the home advantage and much more experience than us. In the third set our setters and libero didn't function very well."

Hi again
Ok so this time I was fiddling around with methods, and trying to figure them out, and once I got them working I got this error - illegal start of expression.
the error appears on the line which I spaced out, and I was wondering what the problem is. When I go shift-F6, the file runs fine, however I want to know what the error is.
