Parade to light up harbor Saturday
STAMFORD -- A photograph of the open blue sky on a still morning over the docks at Stamford Landing Friday morning would give no indication that the boating season is rapidly approaching its true end.
Unless the photo captured Andy Liljequist and his wife, Marty, as they positioned massive inflatable reindeer and Santa Claus decorations on a small push boat tucked into Dock E.
The push boat will be the first craft to hit the harbor Saturday evening during the seventh annual Stamford Harbor Parade of Lights, which unofficially marks the end of the season for local boaters.
Liljequist plans to start the parade with a bang. In addition to Santa, a Christmas tree and more than a couple reindeer stationed on the push boat, he also is attaching a cannon to the front cleat. The boom of the cannon at the front of the parade queue will signify the beginning of the illuminated event.
The organizers aren't yet sure how many boats will participate. Since it's a free event for boaters and doesn't require registration, there are likely to be stragglers who throw their names into the Santa hat moments before the parade gets going Saturday night.
"You don't know what's going to appear," Liljequist said. "I think we're going to have a guy on a paddle board this year."
More InformationFollowing the lights: The parade will sail from Czescik Marina in Stamford at 6 p.m., and participating boats will head into Long Island Sound, before curving back westward around the tip of Kosciuszko Park, past a reviewing stand at Boccuzzi Park and into Stamford Landing for the finale.
Liljequist came up with the idea for the parade almost a decade ago after he and his wife participated in a similar event in Mystic.
"I said, `We have the perfect harbor for this. Why don't we do this here?,' " he said. "And when we did it the first year, we had about 20 boats and we had a ball. And then it just snowballed."
Many Stamford residents embraced the combination of a celebration and a last chance to spend time on the water.
"A lot of us who are really into boating, we don't like the end of the season " Liljequist said. "We're not done yet, but the weather's changing and it's a dreary time of the year. So right now, I'm decommissioning my boat and doing all that stuff, and it's no fun.
"So we say, `Look, we have to have a formal ending to the boating season.' And we decided on the Saturday after Thanksgiving because it's kind of like the entry into the holiday season. Then after that, you just have to get through January, February, and part of March and you're back in the water."
The parade will sail from Czescik Marina at 6 p.m., and participating boats will head into Long Island Sound, before curving back westward around the tip of Kosciuszko Park, past a reviewing stand at Boccuzzi Park, and into Stamford Landing for the finale.

Paying top dollar to assistants becoming a top priority
Paying top dollar to assistants becoming a top priority
By Alex Marvez, South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Nick Saban needed less than a month as Dolphins head coach to grasp a concept that the Chargers and Vikings decided to ignore this offseason.
"There's a salary cap on players, but there isn't a salary cap on coaches," Saban said.
Given a blank checkbook by Dolphins owner H. Wayne Huizenga, Saban went about assembling the largest and highest-paid coaching staff in franchise history. That led to offensive coordinator Scott Linehan and offensive line coach Hudson Houck receiving the significant raises they deserved.
But the money didn't come from the franchises where they worked magic in 2004.
For a few hundred thousand dollars more a season  a relative pittance by NFL standards  the Vikings and Chargers probably could have retained Linehan and Houck.
Despite a rash of injuries to key players, including wide receiver Randy Moss, Linehan formulated an offensive attack that ranked fourth in the NFL as Minnesota reached the second round of the playoffs. Linehan also was instrumental in the development of quarterback Daunte Culpepper, who blossomed in his sixth NFL season with an NFL-best 4,717 passing yards as well as 39 touchdown passes with just 11 interceptions.
The performance of Houck's unit was arguably even more impressive as the Chargers finished 12-4 and won the AFC West. Houck molded an offensive line with two rookies and three other new starters, none of whom were first-round picks, into one that allowed just 18 sacks of quarterback Drew Brees while also paving the way for 1,335 rushing yards by LaDainian Tomlinson.
But not even those achievements could prompt two of the NFL's cheapest franchises to open their wallets in January. Minnesota refused to offer contracts to any of its coaches beyond the 2005 season because of their uncertain ownership situation, while the Chargers simply refused to ante up.
So Linehan and Houck join the Dolphins with three-year contracts that average roughly $800,000 a season. Their lesser-paid replacements now face daunting tasks in trying to help Minnesota and San Diego return to the postseason.
New Vikings offensive coordinator Steve Loney is also keeping his position as Minnesota's offensive line coach. Loney juggled both responsibilities at the college level, but there is a dramatic difference in the NFL with the need for quicker adjustments and play calls.
Minnesota's current plan on game days is for Loney to handle play-calling from the sidelines with input from quarterbacks coach Rich Olson, who will be upstairs in the coaches' box, and presumably head coach Mike Tice. Tight ends and assistant offensive line coach John Tice would then assume some of Loney's duties with the line.
Sounds like there are so many chefs in Minnesota's kitchen that even Emeril Lagasse couldn't find room. Plus, Loney has to find a way to compensate for Minnesota's offseason trade of Moss to Oakland while hoping 2005 first-round draft pick Troy Williamson quickly develops into an effective complement to fellow receiver Nate Burleson. Williamson's position coach is Wes Chandler, who replaces Charlie Baggett, another well-compensated pickup by the Dolphins.
Carl Mauck inherits a much more stable situation in San Diego, as the Chargers are the NFL's only team returning all 22 starters from 2004. Mauck, though, has to earn the trust of linemen who flourished under Houck's coaching style. The even-keeled Houck is regarded as one of the game's great teachers, while Mauck has an in-your-face approach that could take some getting used to.
How Mauck and Loney fare in 2005 could impact how other franchises approach assistant coaching salaries in the future. If the Vikings and Chargers don't skip a beat, some teams will still view assistants as widgets who don't require big-money contracts.
It should be noted, though, that the NFL's top franchise already changed its philosophy.
Eric Mangini worked miracles last season as New England's secondary coach, helping the pass defense keep from getting shredded despite a rash of injuries at cornerback. Such work didn't go unnoticed by Saban and new Cleveland coach Romeo Crennel, each of whom tried to add Mangini to their staffs as defensive coordinator.
But the Patriots, who have resisted paying top dollar to assistants in the past, saw how the market was unfolding after Miami and Cleveland were willing to top their $500,000-a-year offer. That led to New England keeping Mangini with a three-year, $2.4 million contract and a promotion to replace Crennel as defensive coordinator.
Here are some other assistant coaches who will be in new positions with teams that finished .500 or better in 2004:
•Lionel Washington/Joe Baker, Green Bay secondary coaches: While the Packer faithful are thrilled that quarterback Brett Favre has delayed retirement for at least one more season, Green Bay won't be able to make a serious playoff run without improving its secondary. Washington (cornerbacks and nickel packages) and Baker (safeties) have to shore up a secondary that allowed opposing quarterbacks to post a 101.5 rating, 37 touchdown passes and just eight interceptions.
Washington must get cornerback Ahmad Carroll away from the holding penalties that marred his rookie season. Baker has to compensate for standout free safety Darren Sharper's departure with what will most likely be a bargain-basement free agent (Arturo Freeman or Earl Little). Improved play from strong safety Mark Roman also is essential.
•Jeff Jagodzinski, Atlanta offensive line coach: Like Mauck, Jagodzinski is replacing an offensive line guru in Alex Gibbs, who decided to assume a consulting role after the 2004 season. While quarterback Michael Vick deserves plenty of credit for the Falcons leading the NFL in rushing last season with a franchise-record 2,672 yards, Gibbs played a significant role in formulating Atlanta's ground attack.
Jagodzinski has never served as an NFL offensive line coach, but he has produced two Pro Bowl players as a tight ends coach in Bubba Franks and Alge Crumpler. Jagodzinski will also be able to rely on advice from Gibbs.
•Mike Sheppard, New Orleans offensive coordinator: Promoted from quarterbacks coach following Mike McCarthy's departure to San Francisco, the Saints are hoping Sheppard has learned from unsuccessful stints as an offensive coordinator in San Diego (1997 and 1998) and Buffalo (2001). Sheppard has impressed his flock so far, earning praise from Saints players for simplifying the offense. New Orleans hopes to eliminate the pre-snap penalties and need for timeouts that happened too frequently in 2004.
"When a team is thinking too much and it needs to get out and play, then you've got to do something different," tailback Deuce McAllister told The (New Orleans) Times-Picayune.

RVIA & Dometic Oppose California Legislation
July 1, 2010 by Leanne Phillips · 1 Comment
More opposition has emerged to AB 1824, a controversial California bill that would ban the use of holding tank products containing six specific chemicals – bronopol, dowicil, formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, paraformaldehyde and paradichlorobenzene.
To date, Ann Arbor, Mich.-based Thetford Corp., a manufacturer of holding tank chemicals for both the marine and RV markets, had been the only vocal opponent to the proposed legislation.
Now, Dometic Corp., Elkhart, Ind., a Thetford competitor, would specifically like the inclusion of bronopol pulled from the bill, and the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) has stepped up to oppose the bill in its entirety.
RVIA's position is apparently similar to that of Thetford's in that both are asking the state of California for better science – more proof – that these chemicals are fouling up septic systems in the state. Thetford contends that use patterns – the fact that many people often dump holding tanks in a short period of time – is a more serious root cause of septic system problems.
"We do not feel that we have been shown any science that shows that the six chemicals that are being banned are going to address the problem," said Diane Farrell, RVIA vice president of government affairs. "It seems like a remedy and yet we have not seen the right data pointing us to the problem at hand. California is a leader in the green movement, and one of the premises of that is to get chemicals into the hands of the scientists and this seems to be avoiding that process."
The bill is moving swiftly, having passed out of both the Senate Toxics and Environmental Quality and Appropriations committees in the last two weeks. Next it goes to the full Senate and then, if it passes, to the California governor's desk for a signature. Estimates are that that could happen by August or September at the latest.
Meanwhile, one of the most ardent proponents of the bill, the California Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds (CalARVC), is unswayed by RVIA's opposition and Dometic's request to pull bronopol from the bill.
"Dometic has put a letter in opposition suggesting that bronopol be pulled from the bill and that is when we had to dig deeper into the science," explained Debbie Sipe, executive director for CalARVC.
According to Sipe, the California Department of Toxics and Substance Control has looked into this question, but is coming up with inconclusive results. So, CalARVC will continue to support the bill as it stands.
"Fundamentally all chemicals, even green chemicals, have a risk associated with them," explained Ed McKiernan, Dometic director of development for product sanitation at Dometic's plant in Big Prairie, Ohio. "When you ban chemicals and just say 'this is banned,' you don't know what all the consequences could be. In the case of this law, one of my biggest fears is that it is going to cause more difficulty and more harm to campground septic systems than if the law didn't happen."
In fact, McKiernan claims banning these chemicals, which come from a list assembled 10 years ago by Dr. Katherine Farrell-Poe, PhD, of the University of Arizona, will have virtually no positive effect on the environment.
"The level of bronopol that is used in a 40-gallon tank will virtually have no impact on a septic system based on studies that have been done at sewage treatment plants," McKiernan explained. "At the time the list was put together it was thought that bronopol was another name for formaldehyde, and it's not. There has been a lot of research done and it is clearly a different product. Bronopol is a good chemical because it is cost-effective, does a good job of odor control at high temperatures and has very minimal environmental impact."
McKiernan said RV owners can – and often do – use alternative products that contain ammonium compounds, calcium nitrates or enzymes/bacteriological kinds of additives.
"The difficulty with those three alternatives is there are issues with biodegradability and odor control," he said. "Nitrates are not removed when they go to the septic tank. They go into the leach field. You are going to be adding more nitrates and causing a bigger problem for the environment."
Some of the greener products generally don't work at high temperatures, according to McKiernan, and in the state of California where high temperatures are the norm, he maintained, fighting bad odors could become a way of life for the RV enthusiast.
When you take away products containing bronopol, McKiernan maintained, RV owners will likely start using homemade concoctions containing things like Drano or bleach, which kill all the bacteria in a septic system. "This will have a very negative environmental effect," he said.
"We want to do the right thing environmentally, but we want to do the right thing by giving the RV owner products that work in high temperatures," McKiernan added.
McKiernan would like to see California do an in-depth study on bronopol to gain a clearer understanding before passing the bill as it stands.

HP reiterated its commitment to open cloud computing standards this week at the Red Hat Summit, as the company's enterprise cloud vice president, Steve Dietch, said the differentiating feature of and compatibility with other cloud resources.
The basis of HP's strategy revolves around tools to manage a hybrid cloud, which combines on-premise IT infrastructure with public cloud resources. "Every enterprise, if they have a sound, pragmatic strategy, will move to hybrid cloud delivery," Dietch told attendees of the opening keynote on the second day of the Red Hat Summit conference in Boston on Thursday.
Traditional IT, he says, is homogenous, hardwired and siloed. "It wasn't built to be flexible and agile," he says. Enterprises aren't yet willing though, nor may they ever be, to put all of their applications up in a public cloud. That's why he says, hybrid clouds are the cloud of the future.
BACKGROUND: HP takes aim at Amazon with public cloud, virtual network components
MORE FROM RED HAT SUMMIT: Red Hat unveils hybrid cloud, PaaS plans
As enterprises move to the cloud, legacy IT infrastructure will not go away. An estimated $1.7 trillion will be spent on IT annually in the coming years, but only about 15% of that will be on cloud, he says. "As long as all of us are on this planet," he told the crowd, "traditional IT is still going to be important." Dietch says the difference with HP's Converged Cloud and most other offerings on the market is the interoperability with existing infrastructure HP's system supports.
The Converged Cloud model, he says, manages four layers: public, private and hybrid clouds, along with traditional IT. It supports multiple hypervisors, multiple operating systems and hardware from leading networking, storage and server vendors. He specifically named Cisco, EMC and Dell. "We understand customers have existing investments," he says.
Since announcing the Converged Cloud in April, Dietch says it is supporting today more than 180 managed clouds, it has "thousands" of public cloud customers and more than 675 customers are operational utilizing the hybrid technology.
The interoperability, he says, is powered by HP's leveraging of OpenStack, which he says is a "key foundational element" of the Converged Cloud infrastructure. Using the open source cloud deployment model as the building block of the offering, he says, allows the support across multiple hypervisors and operating systems. Converged Cloud customers will also be able to interact more easily with other OpenStack-powered clouds because of the common and open application program interface (API) framework that OpenStack clouds will have. "It's an ecosystem," he says.
HP is competing in a crowded infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) market though. Amazon Web Service is the dominant IaaS provider, while a host of providers are attempting to grab AWS market share or target niche offerings. Meanwhile, two of the major platform-as-a-service (PaaS) vendors have made recent moves into the IaaS market. Microsoft recently announced an extension of its Azure PaaS to include an IaaS offering, which includes both Windows and Linux operating systems. Google, which has had its AppEngine offering, just this week at its I/O conference announced an IaaS offering to complement its AppEngine PaaS.
For HP to compete moving forward, Dietch says he wants HP to be where the customers are: utilizing their existing infrastructure while curiously investigating the cloud for additional functionality, to host new applications or provide a faster, more agile compute platform to serve the business better.

LOS ANGELES -- Southern California residents worked to stay warm and growers in the Central Valley fought to protect citrus crops from overnight lows as a regional cold snap entered another day Monday.
Alerts predicting freezing temperatures and frost that started late last week were becoming familiar in much of the state, with new high wind warnings in place for the mountains around Los Angeles.
(More: Los Angeles Forecast)
In Hollywood, film fans brought heavy coats and scarves as they waited along the red carpet hoping to catch glimpses of stars arriving for the Golden Globes ceremony Sunday evening. Some of the actors shivered but they weren't complaining.
"I'd rather be nippy than boiling hot," said actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who arrived in a strapless dress. "No, I'm not wearing any leggings or long underwear."
Farmers hoped for another night of successful crop protection, as they ran wind machines and water to shield their fruit.
Spokesman Paul Story of California Citrus Mutual, a growers' trade association, said so far most orange and lemon crops probably avoided significant damage despite temperatures early Sunday in the high 20s.
"For the navel oranges, that's not cold enough to do a measurable amount of damage," said Story.
He said more sensitive mandarin oranges may have suffered some minimal damage.
In the Los Angeles area, famously torrid Woodland Hills, which usually makes news for its triple-digit temperatures, hit a low of 30 degrees Sunday morning. That was warm compared to Lancaster in north Los Angeles County, which hit 15 degrees.
Temperatures were predicted to reach the low 20s for the second straight night in the San Francisco Bay Area.
In the East Bay city of Walnut Creek, the National Weather Service reported a weekend low of 23 degrees, while in the Santa Clara County community of Scotts Valley, the temperature dropped to 26.
Meanwhile, in the Sierra Nevada, another subzero night was expected after a day in the 20s.
In San Diego, zookeepers offered extra heat and shelter for some animals.
The cold air was flowing east into neighboring Arizona, where metropolitan Phoenix was marking one of its coldest stretches in year. Temperatures over the weekend dipped to 30 degrees at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. They fell well below zero in mountainous Flagstaff.

About Us
E3 Day Three
Written by
The GN Staff
on 5/15/2004 for
More On:
John's Last Day...
For once this year, I took a very light day and decided to wander the show floor and gather some information. With only one appointment on Friday, I had a nice time going around and seeing what was shown without having to be on a set schedule. So let's get started with some Autoduel like action.
Auto Assault
located at the NCSoft booth is a MMORPG that has an Autoduel feel. Three races: human, mutants, and biomechs are wandering the Earth courtesy of some weird alien object crashing to the Earth. Humans have been underground and are now emerging to the surface to face the mutants who are the product of the alien attack. Biomechs just cut off any mutating body part and replace it with a mechanical replacement. There are multiple ways to drive your cars and outfitting them is easy with the drag and drop system. The developers are big
fans and wanted some of the features in that game in
Auto Assault
. Some weapons have sockets that can be used to upgrade them. If you play an engineer class, you can even deconstruct some weapons and rebuild them yourself, even be a weaponsmith as your career in the game. While there are no playable air vehicles, there are some AI that are able to fly. While not determined, the rep said around 45 vehicles split between the races in four classes will be available. Again, that's just an estimation and the final number can be different. Multiple paint jobs will help differentiate your vehicle from the rest. If you decide to play as a biomech race, you can even transform your vehicle to fight. Almost everything is destructible from buildings to nature. Using the Havok physics engine, buildings crumble in random ways and not duplicated on replay. Rag doll physics play a part when you run over mutants in your way. There are various themed tilesets ranging from desert wastelands to ghost towns that should make different locations unique. Night and day effects along with weather are also prominent in the game. The center portion of the server where the alien object resides is mostly the player vs. player area. Town life features your avatar wandering to different shops and buildings. Arena duels are also featured so you can compete against others in contests in the city. Your garage can hold up to eight vehicles and while the final verdict on if they will be transferred to the different towns you are not parked in, there is some early talk of paying a transport fee to get your vehicle parked in one town to the one you are currently in. Speaking of your avatar, the character has stats too and help determine some of the combat and driving in the game. Unfortunately, you can't carjack a vehicle out on the open road though. The game is great for a quick play with your friends or spending a ton of time on the server like traditional MMORPGs.
Auto Assault
looked like a ton of fun and a definite change from the other MMORPGs out there.
Stopping by the EA booth, I took a look at
NCAA Football 2005
. The big news, of course, is the inclusion of Xbox Live support and it was evident in Microsoft area with playable versions linked up. Crowd noise is now important as if it's too loud, some of your players will have trouble hearing your signals and will give you a confused gesture. There are even the toughest 25 stadiums to play at listed in the game. A deeper dynasty mode gives you some new problems to deal with. One specifically is the feature that some of your players may violate rules and you'll have to discipline them. Depending on the severity of your punishment will determine how many points it will cost. A total pool of points per season prevents you from handing out these punishments left and right. On the field, you'll see more realistic running and better tackling. A matchup view can give you a quick read on what players are composed, rattled, or outmatched. Use this to exploit your opponents' defense or offense. Fan celebrations that I saw include band members clapping and students doing the tomahawk chop. You can even create signs that the fans hold now to give your stadium some new looks. I'm just excited that Xbox Live support is in there and I did play the game at the Microsoft booth online with some good results. Look for it in the fall right before college football season.
John's Last Day continued...
Heading over to the Sega booth, I decided to do some quick looks at a few of their sports titles.
was my favorite NBA game of last season and Sega's hard at work on the next iteration. It's 60% done in the build I tried and they had the PS2 and Xbox version side by side. Graphics are a lot sharper on the Xbox version though. While running the floor, you can see the reflection of the rafters and the scoreboard above along with reflections of the players that fade naturally. The character models don't seem as detailed as
NBA Live 2005
but they aren't bad. It was rather funny seeing Ben Wallace's fro as he runs up the court on a fast break. The action seems more disciplined than
NBA Live 2005
and it feels pretty good.
ESPN Football 2005
has an incredibly polished look to it with clear and concise menus. The ESPN style of presentation oozes from this title and the replays look exactly like an ESPN highlight. The action featured smooth animation and hard hitting tackles. The NFL commissioner definitely wouldn't appreciate some of the celebrations as I saw one where after a player scored a touchdown, he ran to the side where a teammate was holding out his arms like a basketball hoop and the player that scored danced and dunked the football. He was helmetless also so I don't know if he pulled a Dwayne Rudd and threw it while he was on the field. It's 75% complete and should be out in the fall before football season.
Finally, a very early build of the college basketball game from ESPN was on the floor. Playing Saint Joes' against Duke, the action was still too similar to
and had various bugs. For instance, trying a pump fake resulted in my player faking and going up and coming down with the ball. That aside, the game looked well and I was impressed by the texture map on the basketball making it a very realistic model. A double teamed player would flail about trying to get the ball away from the opponent's hands. There was also a nice animation sequence of a player chasing after a ball going out of bounds that was different from the dive that's featured in the previous version. You can also tell tired players as they are hunched over and they swing their arms back and forth. It was only 30% done and they do have a long ways to go but it should be out before college basketball season.
Heading to the Maxis area of the EA booth, fans of the
should be drooling over the
Sims 2
. A very nice rep demonstrated the game for me there. For starters, there is a movie capture option so you can share some moments with fans around the world. As you create your sim, you set his aspiration and that determines how you will play the game and what your wants and fears are. The same generic needs are still there like hunger and bodily functions but they are not emphasized as much now. The sims live, grow up, and die now so a complete life cycle is simulated. You can force some of the events if you want to or live the game and let it normally happen. Those who were annoyed at the process of the original of having to work constantly will be happy to know the job portion is now a lot less taxing and won't figure that important into the process unless you aspire for fame or fortune. Maxis has let you focus on the more fun aspects of the game and doesn't force you to do things that are mundane now. The move to the 3D engine has done wonders to the look of the game. Graphics are crisp and clean with hilarious animation sequences and a free floating camera system. Seeing the reactions of the sims to various situations are priceless. Making the sim look exactly like members of your family is a lot easier now with the 3D engine as you can morph portions of the face in many different ways. There are some preset face styles but you have total control also. Around 500 pieces of clothing will be there initially to outfit your sims with a release of a tool to create your own soon to follow. A hard date of September 17th is when this game is released.
My final appointment of the show was with Razer. For serious gamers out there, many tout the
as the best mice to use for games. I never did know how much Razer goes into making a mouse but I was impressed at their attention to detail and the little things they do.Recently, they have released the new
that is an optical mouse with a 1000 DPI that's good for both left and right handed people. The drivers have no effect on how well the mouse works and it's all hardware here that makes this mouse a smooth performer.
Boomslang 2
is in the design stages but you can see some of the pictures below on the design that's slightly different from the original one. The new pad Razer is producing has two sides and a very solid feel. The speed side is pretty smoth while the control side's surface is more coarse. The large mouse surface will provide speed and control for your Razer any other kind of mouse. Razer is also branching off into the audio territory with two new headphones. The
will be 5.1 headphones and some will have mics. Razer's looking to keep the gaming community happy and their products are well respected. From what I saw, they won't let you guys down.
John's Last Day Concluded....
Now here's a little rant. I know we're not a huge site right now but I feel we do a good job at what we do and we are honest about what we talk about. Plus we don't break NDAs like some other sites that shall be remained nameless. In any case, there are some companies at E3 that really leave a sour taste in my mouth. Being this is my eighth year at the show, I'm more into meeting with the people I work with than anything else. I enjoy the industry tremendously and I wouldn't be doing what I was doing if I didn't love it. Companies like Microsoft, ATI, NVIDIA, Activision, and Logitech always impress me with how well they treat us even though we are not one of the giants in the webzine community. They don't need us at all yet they do all they can to support us. Without them, Gaming Nexus wouldn't be able to function. Now every year, we go to two companies that are pretty big in the industry but are always given the run around or treated like we're inconsequential. This year was no exception. It just boggles my mind at how they treat some of the sites that come to see them and give them some coverage. We still cover their products though even with the snub they usually give us. I understand that they are very busy at times and have to deal with a large number of companies but when you tell a member of the media that you don't have time, won't talk to you unless you have an appointment, and proceed to stand back and watch for the next half hour at the person as he proceeds to write about your new products and not offer any help, that just seems very unprofessional to me. The funny thing is it's not like we were never in good with these two as we worked many times in the past together and worked well. I guess I'm more disappointed in the fact that they give off the feeling they are better than anyone and don't need to talk to you unless you are "important". To name the companies that don't seem to respect the lesser known web sites would be unprofessional but I do hope that someday that they see the light and help give some time and effort into getting to know them more as I'm sure we weren't the only ones that this has happened to. So, I'd like to thank all the companies that did meet with us and took the time out of their busy schedule. I really appreciate their hospitality and the people I met reiterate the love I have for the show and the industry. I hope to see you again next year.
The gaming community has been buzzing about the Phantom console for the last two years. Did the product even exist or was this just an elaborate hoax to try and sell a business model? Well I found out today that it is an actual product and it will be available to consumers on November 18th, 2004. For those who haven't been following the system, the Phantom is a new console from Infinum labs that will allow users to download and play PC video games on their home TV. The system specs for the system are
AMD Athlon XP 2500+
Nvidia GeForce FX 5700 Ultra
Nvidia nForce2 Ultra 400
256 MB of RAM (which they claim is equivalent to 512 MB of PC RAM)
40 GB hard drive
Custom controller and keyboard/mouse combo
. Certainly not bad specs for a system (especially one that doesn't have the overhead of running WindowsXP). You'll notice that I didn't mention any kind of CD or DVD drive in the specs. That's because the Phantom downloads all of its content over a broadband connection. Users log into the Phantom service, browse through the available games (which can be sorted by such things as a game's title, category, or ESRB rating), and then they can try a quick demo of the game or they can purchase the game. Once a game has been purchased it is downloaded to the local storage device. Instead of having to download the entire game, an initial footprint is downloaded and then the rest of the game is streamed down to the device while you play the first part of the game.
The Phantom is a closed box system and users will not be able to upgrade the hardware inside. Instead what they can do is to get a new console at the end of their service agreement (which I'll discuss further on).
One family friend feature of the Phantom is that users can setup profiles so that certain users can only play/purchase certain types of games. For instance you could setup a profile for a teenage son and they would only be able to access purchased games that have an ESRB Teen rating and below while the five year old in the family would only be able to play games rated with an Everyone rating. This is kind of a nice feature as it could really helps parents manage what their children are playing. Profiles can also be skinned differently
The one thing I really liked about the Phantom was the keyboard/mouse controller. The keyboard can be tilted up and then twisted forming an excellent surface to play games with (it's very oriented to the standard WASD configuration though so your mileage may vary). The mouse is situation underneath the lifted keyboard for easy access. Lefties aren't left out as the keyboard can be rotated to accommodate south paws. The mouse is a little on the small but features the standard two buttons and a scroll wheel. It might be nice to have a few more customizable buttons on the final version though since it's kind of hard to reach keys on the far right of the keyboard. I did play some
Unreal Tournament 2004
deathmatch and it was very comfortable to use. PC gamers will feel right at home with the system (if the consoled doesn't work out they should sell the mouse/keyboard combo's for home theatre users).
I didn't get a chance to check out the game controller but one will ship with the system and you'll be able to purchase additional ones if you're so inclined. The keyboard, mouse, and controller are all USB which can be chained together. Phantom is not currently working through the issue of supporting third part USB devices but for right now users are limited to what Phantom provides with the system.
Users who want to purchase a Phantom will have two options. They can sign a two year subscription and get the system (the console, keyboard/mouse, and one controller) for free or they can purchase a system for $199 and pay a monthly fee of $29.99. If the consumer does end up having a subscription for twenty four straight months they will be able to get a credit $199. For their subscription fee, users will have access to a set of free games as well as the ability to purchase "premium" games. Prices for "premium" games will be comparable to what you would pay at a retail store for a game.
The next big mystery for the Phantom will be what games will be on the system and which games users will be able to download to the system. The demonstration systems had the
Unreal Tournament 2004
demo and some other games loaded on it but they actual list of games has yet to materialize. According to the PR person I talked to, the final Phantom will actually be a little smaller than the pre-production model they had at the booth this year. The Phantom is a pretty ideal publishing system for game companies (electronic distribution with no retailers in the middle) but it remains to be seen if consumers will benefit as well.Between the HyTek, Phantom, and DISCover presentations I was really starting to question the future of PC gaming…maybe it's time the computer moves into the living room, maybe this is the future of PC gaming. Fortunately for me my next stop was the Alienware presentation that restored my faith in traditional PC gaming. Before you read on you might want to get a towel to catch all of the drool from the system and performance specs you are about to read.
Alienware is one of the most respected PC manufacturers in the business and they consistently turn out wave after wave of innovative hardware. You couldn't turn around in E3 without seeing one of their boxes powering a PC game demonstration. In the past Alienware's innovations have usually been in case design and system configuration but with the announcement of their new
Video Array and X2 Motherboard
, Alienware is stepping further into the world of custom hardware.
Video Array
system is a new custom hardware and software combinations that will result in a 50% increase in gaming performance. As you may have guessed from the word "Array" in the title the system uses two video cards to increase performance. What happens is that the game sends a video request to a the video card. This request is intercepted by Alienware software and split into two requests. Each request is then sent to a different video card and then combined at Alienware's Video Merger hub and then passed out to the monitor. Requests are broken up by if they render the top of the screen or the bottom of the screen and dynamic load balancing at the Alienware software level ensures that requests never get out off sync (i.e. in an FPS where the sky isn't redrawn much while there is a lot of action happening at the bottom of the screen). The system only supports paired boards right now so you won't be able to run some kind of ATI/Nvidia half-breed system (can you imagine trying to work with two sets of videoe drivers?).
This technology will only be found on Alienware's new X2 Motherboard. The motherboard will support next generation Intel dual processors at 800mHz, dual channel DDS-400 ECC ram (up to 8 GB of RAM), and it will support Extended Memory 64 technology.
All of this technology is going to require quite a lot of power so the systems will require a power supply that provides somewhere north of 800 watts. Where you have power you have heat and with this much heat being generated your typical air cooling system isn't going to hack it so Alienware has developed a new watering system to keep things nice and quiet.
All of this digital horse-power will only be available in Alienware's new ALX (Alienware Luxury Experience) line of systems. The systems resemble the existing Area-51 boxes except for a new "hump" on top of the system. This hump is actually part of the new cooling system as well as providing an LED display that will show system temperature and mode.
The ALX systems will also represent Alienware getting back to the days of highly configured, lower-production run systems. The ALX line will have very limited production runs but will be more tailored to the individual gamer. The ALX systems will be available in June and systems featuring the VGA Array and X2 technology will be available in Q3 or Q4 of this year. Pricing hasn't been announced yet but don't' expect this technology to come cheap.Next on the docket was the Nokia N-Gage QD. I had the pleasure of talking to Shane Neville the producer of the N-Gage version of
Tony Hawk
The Sims
, and
Crash Nitro Kart
. Shane walked me through how Nokia is going to be supporting their developers a lot more and that should really help improve the quality of the games. Nokia is really committing to having several first party, N-Gage exclusive titles and they should start showing up on shelves soon. Nokia expects to have five to six must have games within the next year.
We also talked about Arena, N-Gage's online community. This central server based system will be the main hub for all of the online games available on the N-gage. Users will be able to setup lists of friends and if they are online you'll be able to invite them to join you in a game or message them back and forth. Since the system piggy-backs on the Nokia network you'll be able to get online anywhere you can get cell phone service (compared to the limited range of Bluetooth networking and the spotty coverage of Wi-Fi connections this is cool for those of you who really want to game on the go).
My last appointment of the day was with THQ. The first game I got a look at was
Full Spectrum Warrior
. I missed this game last year and have regretted it ever since so I was looking forward to finally getting my hands on the game. The game really lives up to the hype and the realism is amazing. Gamers are really going to have to think differently to get the most out of the game. The mission I played required me to investigate an area of the city for hostile activities. I move the first fire team into the area and started taking fire. Once they eliminated the first enemy they started taking fire from a tank and a soldier with an RPG. I moved my second fire team in to draw the fire from the first fire team so they could move into a better defended position. With that done they were able to clear space for reinforcements to arrive and take out the tank and the RPG trooper. The game looks fantastic as well and should be a good introduction to military tactics and gamers will get a shot at it when it hits shelves on June 7th.
After the realism of
Full Spectrum Warrior
I had to switch gears to check out the new
game. The game is going to be based more on the comic book rather than the recently released movie. If you've ever read the books you know how dark the character is and the game allows you to really experience that first hand. At the surface the game looks like a third person shooting game but the game where the game differs is that in order to gain information about key plot elements you will need to interrogate some of the crooks (they are easily identified by the Punisher logo above their heads. Interrogations can be conducted by using your hands (strangling, punching) or by using special environmental options. One example in the game was that you could persuade the person to give you information by pushing their head into a piranha tank. By using the analog stick you could force them slowly towards the tank until they give you the information you want. Of course you can over do it and kill them before you get the information out of them. The game also allows you to use the criminals as human shields and you can even throw them through doors to break up potential ambushes.
The Punisher
may be the first game to to make
look like a Sesame Street game.
The final game I got my grubby hands on was an early build of
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
. The game takes place after a second nuclear accident at Chernobyl. You are a Stalker, whose job it is to look through "The Zone" of the explosion for scrap that can be sold for money. You'll have to fight other stalkers, the military (who is trying to close off the zone) as well as the mutated inhabitants of the area. The FPS game looks great and I got a chance to try an alpha of the Deathmatch multiplayer mode. The game still has a few kinks to work out but the weapons have a nice feel to them and the deathmatch level was well designed. We will definetly be tracking this game between now and it's release next year.
I had to say that I had a pretty good time at E3 and that I'm in a bit of shock now that's its over. I did get a chance to see a lot of new games and meet some new people in the industry. I did check out a few more games that I've listed in these reports so check back next week with my thoughts on
Auto Assault
Mechassault 2
Tribes: Vengeance
, and a few others that my sleep deprived brain can't remember right now.

"THE SECRET CIRCLE" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET)
"Beneath" (TV-PG, DLV) (HDTV)
A ROAD TRIP FOR THE CIRCLE TAKES A HORRIBLE TURN - After not hearing from her grandmother (Ashley Crow) for a couple of days, Cassie (Britt Robertson) becomes concerned and wants to go look for her. Diana (Shelley Hennig) decides the entire Circle should go in case Jane is in trouble. She also invites Jake (guest star Chris Zylka) along, much to Adam's (Thomas Dekker) dismay. A storm turns the day trip into an overnight excursion, so Faye suggests a little game of Truth or Dare to liven up the evening. However, things take a horrible turn when Faye is forced to reckon with someone from her past. John Fawcett directed the episode written by Don Whitehead & Holly Henderson (#108).

Prosecutors continue presentation against suspect
Prosecutors continue presentation against suspect
CADIZ, Ky. —
Commonwealth prosecutors continue laying out their murder and arson case against George Luna in Cadiz.
The Paducah Sun reported prosecutors called 15 witnesses Wednesday.
Luna is charged with fatally beating 46-year-old Debra Hendrickson and burning her mobile home in Marshall County with her body inside it.
Hendrickson was killed in September 2007. Investigators found Luna was living with her at the time.
Luna was convicted of murder and arson in 2008, but a problem with a juror caused the state supreme court to overturn the conviction. After a second jury could not be seated in Marshall County, the retrial was moved to Trigg County.

I want a logo that will represent not only my business/website, but that can be easily put onto shirts, coffee mugs, business cards, sides of airplanes. print ads, etc. I want the business name incorporated in some way (AeroHQ). I don't want anything cutsie. Something that suggests AeroHQ is kind of a home base (not a baseball reference, but an aviation reference). It needs to incorporate all of this and yet still be simple enough to be transferrable. (Yes it seems daunting). As far the color scheme goes, I am pretty open to suggestion, but nothing too bright something that is pleasing to the eye and yet catches your attention. The business should be well identifiable from the logo, not just the name AeroHQ.
Our Customers:
Aviation professionals, pilots, enthusiasts, aircraft manufacturers and dealers, aviation product resellers, etc.
Our Business:
Hosting of aircraft for sale.
Discussion forums and groups
User social-networking home pages
Mall-like aviation product sales (multiple companies host their products on AeroHQ)
and much much more...
- graphic within logo should be self explanatory -- tying together "Aero" and "Headquarters"
- Be creative and unique.
- Incorporate "AeroHQ" in design -- but that should NOT be the focal point. (Imagine having to recognize the logo on an airplane or banner from a distance)
- Intend to have this be the Corporate Identity.
- Think outside of the box on this one!
- All formats required per target applications above (ex:png)
- clipart
- anything cutsie
- non-aviation related.
- jumbo jet aircraft pictures

DENVER - Lobbying from the very highest level of the U.S. Forest Service has scuttled a state representative's bid to keep the federal government from claiming water rights at ski areas.
Rep. Jerry Sonnenberg, R-Sterling, said he expects his House Bill 1013 to die without a vote in May, when the Legislature adjourns for the year. His bill would have forbid the Forest Service from demanding that ski areas sign over their water rights in return for approval of their permits to operate on federal land.
"I think it's important for the state to tell the feds to stay out of our business," Sonnenberg said.
Colorado law allows water right holders to sell the right to whomever they choose. But the Forest Service wants to make sure water used for snowmaking doesn't get sold to condo developers or others who would use it for purposes other than skiing.
"We're committed to the long-term health of recreational opportunities and economic opportunities that the ski resorts provide for Colorado," said Chris Strebig, spokesman for the Forest Service's regional office in Golden.
But Sonnenberg's bill would have amended Colorado water law to forbid the U.S. government from requiring anyone to surrender their water rights in order to get a land-use permit.
Legislators got calls urging them to kill the bill from Harris Sherman, who is the undersecretary of agriculture and the federal official who oversees the Forest Service. Many legislators know Sherman personally, because he directed the state Department of Natural Resources before he went to Washington.
There are two sides to the story.
Colorado law treats water rights as a property right. People who own the rights can use them or sell them as they please, as long as a water court approves of the use of the water. Sonnenberg says the U.S. government has no business adding extra conditions.
The Forest Service, on the other hand, says it is merely looking out for Colorado's winter recreation economy, which depends heavily on water for snowmaking.
The issue isn't limited to ski resorts. The Forest Service conditions on water rights can apply to grazing leases to ranchers, as well.
Rep. Claire Levy, D-Boulder, opposes Sonnenberg's bill, which she thinks oversteps the state's authority.
"It's a state law on what the federal government can do on a special use permit or lease on federal land. I don't think Colorado has the power to pass a law to that effect," Levy said.
Legislators worked out a deal, which both Levy and Sonnenberg confirmed: The House will vote on a symbolic resolution that disapproves of the Forest Service's practice on water rights, but Sonnenberg's bill will "die on the calendar" - legislative slang for being killed without a vote on the last day of the year.
"One is better than nothing," Sonnenberg said. "If we get the resolution, we can at least send a message, and I'm OK with that. I would rather have sent two messages."
Ski resorts sued the Forest Service over its policy and won last December when a Denver judge overturned the Forest Service's decision, citing "severe" problems in adopting the rule without public notice.
So the Forest Service is trying again to adopt a rule to tie water rights to the land. Next week, it is sponsoring a series of public meetings in Lakewood, Salt Lake City and Lake Tahoe, Calif., to solicit public input on the policy.
Sherman announced earlier this week that he would step down from his U.S. Department of Agriculture post in early May.

Media Statements & Speeches
Commissioner John R. Norris Statement
March 30, 2012
Docket No. EL05-121-006
The PJM Remand Order
"In todays order, the Commission responds to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals remand of an earlier set of decisions regarding transmission cost allocation in the PJM Interconnection, LLC (PJM) region. I support our determinations today because I believe they appropriately apply the foundational principle of beneficiaries pay to the record evidence before us regarding the planning and usage of transmission facilities in the PJM region. In addition, I believe todays order faithfully adheres to the principles laid out by the Seventh Circuit in its remand decision and carefully addresses the courts concerns.
However, this was certainly not an easy case to decide. As I have stated on numerous occasions, cost allocation is perhaps the most difficult hurdle we face in building a more robust transmission infrastructure in this country. Applying the foundational principle that only those who benefit from a transmission facility should share in its costs requires difficult judgments regarding how to account for the benefits provided by transmission infrastructure. While making these decisions is not a matter for the slide rule, as the Supreme Court has noted, the Commission bears the responsibility to conduct a searching inquiry into whether particular cost allocation mechanisms assign costs to ratepayers in a manner that is, in the words of the Seventh Circuit, roughly commensurate with the benefits they receive. I believe we have met that responsibility in this case.
Todays order comes at an awkward time, as the PJM region is considering how it will comply with Order No. 1000. I want to emphasize that todays order should not be viewed as predetermining how PJM and its stakeholders should comply with Order No. 1000. This case is about allocating the costs of transmission facilities prior to compliance with Order No. 1000, and separate proceedings will address how transmission costs will be allocated for transmission facilities subject to that rule.
It is also important to note that this case is somewhat unique in that the Commission, having found PJMs previous cost allocation methodology unjust and unreasonable in 2007, bore the legal burden under section 206 of the Federal Power Act to determine and fix a just and reasonable methodology. The Commission also had a legal obligation here to respond to the courts remand.
In contrast, Order No. 1000 puts the regions in the drivers seat, empowering stakeholders to work together to develop planning processes and cost allocation methodologies that work best for them. As our order emphasizes today, the slate is clean for PJM and its stakeholders as they work towards compliance with Order No. 1000. I encourage them to consider any and all planning and cost allocation mechanisms, including those that were offered by the parties but not adopted in this proceeding, in determining what will work best for their region."

Hey All! We've been having fun playing around with all the fun Holiday stuff on Pinterest and finding a range of images for our Holiday Board. My personal favorite is this holiday bouffant, topped with a star that looks like it's made out of meringue. I wish I knew more about it and the lovely lady who is rocking it but unfortunately as is so often the case on Pinterest, the links lead to nowhere:
I'm also loving this vintage magazine cover art from the 1950s; it makes me nostalgic for a time … when I wasn't even alive … whatever, it's super and I love that font!
I also admired this sweet gold-dusted pinecone garland from The Sweetest Occasion blog, to make your own, see the full instructions here.
This snowy green trailer-scape is one of the cutest holiday pics around the Pin Boards this season. It makes me want to put on my snow pants and plop myself down into that foot of snow on the Adirondack chairs!
For a list of stunning trees, check out Peachy Green's 15 Most Beautiful Christmas Trees in the World. This one is my favorite:
Finally, if you are feeling more bah humbug, just watch this video of the most powerful bridge in the world, crank up the Rocky tunes in the background, laugh and maybe even start running in place. It will do you good, I promise! I extra love it when the trucks just keep on going, oblivious to the fact that they have just lost their top layer!
Hi, I'm Becky. I live in Atlanta. Besides acting as the Editorial Director here on Hatch, you can find me talking design over at Houzz. Make me happy — leave a comment!

Lansing struggles against Piper while Pleasant Ridge rocks Doniphan West
For six innings Tuesday, the Lansing baseball team played as equals with visiting Piper.
Yet, in the seventh and final frame, everything unraveled for the Lions. A walk followed by two hits and error allowed four Pirate runs to scoot in.
Lansing then saw two of its own reach in the bottom half of the inning, though that was all the team could muster in what became a 7-3 defeat.
"I thought we played well," Lansing coach Mike Williams said. "We hung in there and competed, but it was the same old story with a different chapter. Walks and errors hurt us late."
Game two saw Piper explode for nine runs in the opening two innings. From there, Lansing never could mount a rally.
"Brock (Knipfer) pitched really good for us in relief, coming in the second and finishing it out," Williams said. "Besides that, we just couldn't get hits at all."
The Lions coach did highlight Nick Burgoon, who collected clutch hits in both games according to Williams.
Lansing, 5-12, will host Leavenworth Friday at 6 p.m.
Rams rock Doniphan West
A blow out and a come-from-behind win sent the Pleasant Ridge faithful home happy Tuesday.
Against Doniphan West, the Rams baseball team dismantled its guests 16-1 before using a Logan McKinney three-run home run to walk away 6-5 winners in game two.
"Resiliency," PR coach Mike Koontz said. "We led that whole game and to see them find a way to come back after getting down in the final inning was really nice to see."
"In that first game, up and down the lineup we just hit the baseball."
Game one saw Ridge club five home runs, two from Adam Patterson with the rest coming from McKinney, Jason
Simonis and Nate Amos. McKinney and Jacob Rush recorded the pitching wins for Ridge.
PR, 7-9, will be at McLouth Thursday at 4:30 p.m.

Happy World Smile Day! Did you know that today is dedicated to smiles and kind acts throughout the world? Smiling is a universal sign of affection instinctive to us all. But have you ever wondered where our grins come from?
Cheeky monkey
Smiling may have originated from the bared teeth expression made by monkeys when frightened. But in higher primates, teeth bearing is often a sign of submission and non-hostility from a subordinate member of a group towards a dominant member.
From signalling non-hostility and appeasement, teeth bearing is thought to have developed into showing affection and affiliation between equals.
Laughter is the best medicine
It's also likely that our laughter evolved from another primate expression: the 'play face'. This facial expression can be seen during playful encounters. For instance, a flash of teeth reassures a gorilla's playmate that they do not intend to harm them. This appears to be a foundation of human laughter.
It's easy to imagine that all animals smile and show happiness just like us. Today, they can! For when you're smiling, the whole (natural) world smiles with you…

As a group, retirees and older workers are not in the financial straits that we often assume. The vast majority of retirees say they are comfortable; the unemployment rate for those over 55 is lower than that of the general population, and it's coming down.
Still, the Great Recession has taken a toll on the older population, dooming many to a reduced living standard for the rest of their lives, according to recent research from the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College.
In the early part of the downturn workers past the age of 55 suffered an unusually high rate of job loss. The unemployment rate for this group spiked to 7.2%. That has abated and the figure now stands at 5.3%, vs. an overall unemployment rate of 7.6%. But the initial surge of job loss has broad implications. Older workers who suffer a layoff have a more difficult time returning to work for equal or more pay, research shows.
Ten years after losing a job, older displaced workers earn 14% to 19% less than they did before the job loss, according to the retirement center's research. They own 22% to 30% fewer assets and are significantly more likely to experience subsequent layoffs. As Maria Heidkamp, a senior project manager at the John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development at Rutgers University, notes in her blog:
I routinely meet older job seekers who have made transitions to new jobs, such as the supermarket checkout clerk who used to do marketing for a big pharmaceutical company; the airport-van driver who used to work as a newspaper editor; the other airport-van driver who used to work for Hewlett-Packard; the cable repairman who used to be in finance.
This downward mobility is part of the "de-skilling" of the American labor force, according a paper from three Canadian economists. High-skilled labor moves down the occupational ladder, pushing unskilled labor down even further — or off the ladder altogether.
One issue seems to be employer misperception as it relates to older workers and their requirements. Many employers assume older laid-off workers won't return for anything less than the job they once had, and that these workers will have not kept up with today's needed skills.
Yet as Heidkamp observes, older workers are more than ready to work for less if that's what it takes to get re-employed. And in a rapidly evolving workplace, there is no guarantee that young workers are keeping up any better. "Even employed workers need to be always thinking about their next job and how to navigate their own career and professional development," she writes. But at least they have time to figure it out.

Armed Officers in Spokane Schools
Spokane Public Schools could have its own armed police force starting in January. The Spokane School District approved of the plan to arm its thirteen peace officers in the wake of the shooting in Connecticut last year. Each high school and middle school would have an armed officer according to the current plan, with training from the Spokane Police Academy.

Open Inguinal Hernia Repair Surgery / Lichtenstein Repair
An inguinal hernia occurs when soft tissue — usually part of the intestine — protrudes through a weak point or tear in the lower abdominal wall. The resulting bulge can be painful — especially when you cough, bend over or lift a heavy object. Not necessarily dangerous by itself, an inguinal hernia doesn't get better or go away on its own. An inguinal hernia can lead to life-threatening complications. For this reason, a doctor is likely to recommend surgical repair of an inguinal hernia that's painful or becoming larger. Inguinal hernia repair is a common surgical procedure.
In this procedure, also called "Herniorrhaphy", the surgeon makes an incision in the groin and pushes the protruding intestine back into the abdomen. Then the surgeon repairs the weakened or torn muscle by sewing it together. Often the weak area is also reinforced and supported with a synthetic mesh, a procedure called hernioplasty.

Robert Burns
John Flaxman
c.1828 (commissioned in 1824)
White marble
Scottish National Portrait Gallery
Other Views
Based on the famous portrait by Alexander Naismyth, the statue was completed after Flaxman's death in 1826 by the sculptor's pupil and brother-in-law, Thomas Denman (see "Robert Burns"). The poet is shown in plaid and knee-breeches, a small bunch of daisies in one hand, a roll of paper in the other, standing in the open in front of a tree-stump. A ploughshare, tam-o'shanter and thistle lie at his feet, all symbolic of his role as Scotland's ploughboy poet. A bas-relief on the pedestal depicts the Muse crowning the seated Burns. According to the inscription on the pedestal, the work was paid for by widespread subscription. The statue was formerly housed in the fine neo-classical Burns Monument (1830) designed by Thomas Hamilton, on Regent Road, Edinburgh (see "Historic Scotland"). [continued below]

The upload information seems to claim this is Bobby Valentine walking the streets, grunting like a lunatic. Information on reddit claims this is Bobby Valentine on the streets of Chicago. Obviously, Bobby Valentine is currently in Chicago to play the Cubs, but that's hardly a smoking gun.
It certainly looks like it could be Bobby Valentine. And—while he does not often grunt, to my knowledge—it does sounds like Bobby Valentine, too. So, I guess, the only question that remains is: what the fuck?
OK, I lied. There are millions of questions remaining here, but that is the most important one right now.

Spoiler for outer Moka:

|Link #22320
#1 Akashiya Moka Fan
Essentially, with the rosario and Outer's survival, all myself and cyberdemon are hinting is that Outer Moka wasn't truly created by the rosario, except for maybe her physical appearance. Otherwise, IMO, Outer is essentially the "girly" part of Moka that the terrible power of the Shinso blood had always been repressing, and once you repressed the Shinso blood (courtesy of the rosario), you get the girly part back. Unfortunately, because the Shinso blood had been repressed for so long (from Akasha to Tsukune unleashing it), it essentially became concentrated in what we can best call Inner Moka from the first half or so of SI
tl;dr: Outer is the "girly" part of Moka that due to suppression of the Shinso blood, was able to be in charge (and again, just look at the pie chapter or even the beginning of the flashback, and you can see Inner's looks with Outer's personality)
.. on a side note, should we really be using the term "rosary" instead of rosario" to decribe the cross (and maybe collar)?
