Tech Ruggers Routed in Tucson
Tech Ruggers Routed in Tucson
Fall 66-0 to nationally-ranked Arizona
TUCSON, Ariz. – The New Mexico Tech Rugby Club fell hard to the University of Arizona Saturday in Tucson, 66-0. Traveling eight players short of the allowable 23-man roster, the chronically undermanned NMT squad found their skills and teamwork also wanting against the Wildcats.
The NMT Rugby team members who traveled to Tucson on Saturday.
The match represented a rare opportunity for the small college ruggers to experience firsthand the skills, pace, and intensity of USA Rugby's collegiate division 1-A, where the Wildcats are ranked No. 14. If there was solace to be had, it lay in the fact the New Mexicans largely stanched the rout in the second half, allowing two five-point tries versus the eight-try feast the Wildcats enjoyed in the first 40 minutes while very nearly ending their drought as time ran out.
Arizona used a textbook approach to get on the board early and often in the first half, using their eight forwards to gain and keep control of the ball before launching seven well-coordinated backline players to touch down eight tries, six of them converted for a 52-0 bulge. Twenty minutes into the contest NMT looked gassed, but they answered the bell after the five-minute halftime break to put in a better show in the second half.
Nigel Ruckhaus, Stephen Albritton, Jeremy Hart, and Christian Rode repeatedly secured ball possession through Tech's unique lineout (inbounds throws) system and the team managed to exert a threat through stabbing runs close to the preceding tackle. But each sequence was eventually snuffed out for lack of the accuracy demanded by Arizona's unrelenting pressure. For their part Arizona converted their two tries to complete an eight-of-ten kicking day. The final whistle blew as NMT Man of the Match sophomore captain Tanner Graham plunged over the try line in the arms of several Wildcats, who successfully prevented him from grounding the ball for what would have been Tech's consolation try.
Following their up-close view of big college rugby, NMT will no doubt be glad to be home April 15 for a round-robin championship tournament against the Rio Grande Union's top collegiate teams, top-ranked University of New Mexico and No. 3 seeded University of Texas at El Paso. Play will continue throughout the day with the championship match in the afternoon.

Implications for Strategy and Industrial Change
Edited by Ken Green, Marcela Miozzo and Paul Dewick
Chapter 5: Consumers and Suppliers as Co-Producers of Technology and Innovation in Electronically Mediated Banking: The Cases of Internet Banking in Nordbanken and Société Générale
Staffan Hultén, Anna Nyberg and Lamia Chetioui
Staffan Hultén, Anna Nyberg and Lamia Chetioui 1. INTRODUCTION After a very media-hyped start many start-up e-banks now face serious economic problems. In contrast the traditional banks using a multi-channel strategy are rapidly gaining market share in the Internet channel. Internet banking is the latest step in the development of distance banking. Internet and other distance banking services hold interesting properties for the banking firms and for the customers. The bank's principal benefits are increased customer retention and lower costs due to the transfer of work to the customers. The customers' most important benefits are increased accessibility of the bank service, lower service charges and avoiding having to wait to be helped by a teller. The Internet is not only a new distribution channel for the bank sector but it also modifies the bank sector's competitive landscape. New competitors, for example specialized share traders on the Internet, specialized mortgage services on the Internet and Internet banks without bank branches, have attacked the banks by promising to provide a more rapid and cheaper service. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have already resulted in two evolutionary change processes in the banking industry. In a first development stage they supported the processing of the bank's internal business and inter-bank transactions. In a second development stage they became the fastest channel to get access to the capital markets and permitted the creation of global electronic marketplaces. Today, ICTs 92 Consumers and suppliers in electronically mediated banking 93 provide support...

I love dim sum. Grew up in LA and lived in NY, this is probably one of my favorite things to eat...
I'll be in LV with 3 beloved people in 2 weeks...we will be arriving early Fri morning and either wanted to do dim sum fri or sat morning.
I know dim sum is usually better on weekends- has anyone had experience at either place on weekend vs weekday and at the two places mentioned? I have done my research and these two seem to be at the top of the list based on posts from 2009.
Any new relevant info would be very much appreciated! thanks for all your help and can't wait to grub well those 3 days. Oh and we are all very adventurous eaters so any specific info on unique items would be great! THANKS!!

At long last a new season dawns, and with it comes the inaugural College Football Playoff. Now, for the first time in the history of the sport, programs across the nation will compete for a spot in the four-team field. At least one major-conference champion will be left on the outside looking in.
So, which teams are poised to succeed? Which could fall short of expectations? The College Football Playoff era is here -- will it prove any less controversial than that of the oft-maligned BCS?
As the first weekend of games approaches, Sports Illustrated unveils its preseason Top 25, including its four playoff-bound selections. For more college football preview content, be sure check out SI's Preseason All-America Team, 2014 schedule guide, TV media roundtable and much more.
If Notre Dame earns a playoff berth, Everett Golson will have a say in it. But it's what the quarterback says that will be crucial. The 6‐foot senior endured his season-long suspension for cheating on a test in part by honing his football IQ with quarterback guru George Whitfield last year, and he is prepared to embrace the intricacies of coach Brian Kelly's offense instead of running a remedial version of it, as he did in 2012. He'll first have to fend off 6‐foot sophomore Malik Zaire in what Kelly insists isn't "artificial competition." Expect the cannon‐armed Golson to start and to far surpass his '12 numbers (58.8% completion percentage and 12 TDs).
Saying LSU's roster is young is like calling "Breaking Bad" intense or Kanye West outspoken. The Tigers have relied on freshmen and sophomores in each of the past few seasons, and the pattern will continue since seven underclassmen entered the 2014 draft. The latest recruiting class features dual-threat passer Brandon Harris, rangy wideout Malachi Dupre and, most notably, running back Leonard Fournette, whom coach Les Miles, at SEC media days, compared with Michael Jordan. LSU needs more than just strong performances from its newest arrivals, though. The defensive players who started to break out in 2013 have to emerge as stars.
With signal-caller Tajh Boyd and receivers Sammy Watkins and Martavis Bryant off to the NFL, the Tigers will have to amp up their defense to reach double-digit wins for the fourth consecutive season. The good news is that consensus All-America defensive end Vic Beasley chose to return for his senior year. The 6'2", 235‑pound Beasley had 23 tackles for loss a year ago and needs eight sacks to break the Clemson career mark of 28. "Maybe some of the names everybody's heard are more on the defensive side now instead of on the offensive side," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said, "and maybe that's OK."
Not all Trojans boosters were happy with the hiring of former Pete Carroll assistant Steve Sarkisian, but the first-year USC coach inherits a talent-rich roster, which is always a good starting point. Quarterback Cody Kessler, receiver Nelson Agholor and tailback Javorius Allen, all juniors, are back and should play well in Sarkisian's up-tempo, no-huddle style. The 6'1", 210-pound Kessler struggled with consistency last season. Junior defensive end Leonard Williams anchors one of the best lines in the country, but USC will be learning its third scheme in three seasons. The secondary has question marks, and don't be surprised if true freshman Adoree' Jackson gets reps at corner -- and at receiver.
Ole Miss had one of the SEC's best attacks at times last season, averaging 6.0 yards per play and a league-leading 78.3 plays per game, but execution was often a problem. The Rebels ended the year next to last in the conference in red zone efficiency (73.9%). That inability to finish kept Ole Miss from contending in the SEC West last season. Senior Bo Wallace holds the keys to coach Hugh Freeze's up-tempo offense. Sophomore receiver Laquon Treadwell and sophomore tight end Evan Engram should give Wallace plenty to work with through the air, while tailbacks I'Tavius Mathers and Jaylen Walton, who combined for almost 1,100 rushing yards last year, will man the backfield.
Arizona State will score a lot. Coach Todd Graham's high-octane offense is led by school-record-breaking quarterback Taylor Kelly, who enters his third season as a starter. Kelly has a slew of weapons, including NFL-ready redshirt junior wide receiver Jaelen Strong and do-everything junior running back D.J. Foster. "This," Graham says, "is going to be the best football team we've had."
Health and leadership were critical to Missouri's unexpected rise in the SEC East last year. They figure to play an equally essential role in the Tigers' quest to defend their division crown. After an injury-riddled 2012 campaign that saw Mizzou miss the postseason, coach Gary Pinkel's team went 12-2, capped by a 41-31 win over Oklahoma State in the Cotton Bowl. Pinkel attributes the success to conditioning, limiting contact in practice and playing a lot of guys. He hopes the latter keeps his team from regressing without quarterback James Franklin, defensive linemen Kony Ealy and Michael Sam and running back Henry Josey, who all left for NFL.
Oregon State needs to establish some balance offensively. A year after passing for a Pac-12 record 4,662 yards, quarterback Sean Mannion returns with a group of unproven receivers and a banged-up offensive line. Junior center Isaac Seumalo, one of the only four-star recruits to ever pick the Beavers, is still recovering from a broken foot suffered in last season's Hawaii Bowl win over Boise State. Seumalo and a handful of other experienced linemen missed time this spring, prompting coach Mike Riley to admit in July, "I'm worried about our offensive line."
For Marshall to have a chance at making the College Football Playoff, it must go undefeated. That would require a Heisman-caliber season out of Rakeem Cato, who enters this fall with 10,176 career passing yards. Last year the Thundering Herd won double-digit games for the first time since 2002, and with 15 returning starters the potential for a special season is there. They averaged more than 42 points a game in 2013, constantly putting pressure on foes to match the Herd strike for strike.

|Subject: Re: Boston
For restaurants I would suggest choosing the North End with its wonderful
array of fine Italian eateries. We had a real terrific meal at Artu's
located at 6 Prince St. (between Hanover St. and North Sq.) 742.4336.
Don't order dessert. Instead head to one of the outstanding pastry shops on Hanover Street. Mike's Pastry is the hands-down favorite if the line out the door is any indication. However, just across and up the street is Modern Pastry with their fantastic sfogliatelli (pastry shells filled with vanilla cream and egg).
As far as non-touristy things to do: Check out the Boston Public Library's Sargent Gallery. Located here is a series of murals painted by the acclaimed turn-of-the-century artist John Singer Sargent. While at the library do enjoy the central courtyard.
One of the most pleasurable moments we had was walking down the landscaped median on Commonwealth Ave. at dusk. We were able to watch the locals from this residential street taking their dogs for their evening constitutional, admire the Back Bay architecture, take in the well-planned placing of these stately elms down this central artery. As you continue down this walk it leads you out into the Public Garden and then into The Boston Common. A really top rate design for urban greenspace.
Do get out on a ferry so that you can take in the skyline from the harbor. I think this one rings true for just about any city with a waterfront.
Boston is great city. Enjoy it to the utmost.

- Infant Brain Damage FAQ
How Do Infants Get Brain Damage?
There are a number of medical errors that can lead to infant brain damage. Physical trauma during or after a birth can damage a baby's still-developing brain, and can result from a doctor's improper use tools like forceps, or the baby's head striking against something during delivery. The infant being deprived of oxygen because of problems with the umbilical cord, the placenta or the mother's low blood pressure can also contribute to brain damage. Vaginal, intestinal and other infections in the mother, as well as jaundice, can lead to a baby's brain being damaged as well.
Read more about how infants may suffer from brain damage here.
What Are the Symptoms of Infant Brain Damage?
Brain damage in infants can manifest in a number of different ways. Infants may suffer from delays in their speech development and problems with sensory input to their eyes and ears. An infant's head can suffer abnormalities such as misshaped facial features or a protruding forehead, and changes in temperament and personality can also take place after a brain injury.
Although these symptoms do not alone signify your child has brain damage, you should always consult with a doctor to determine if there is an injury present. Learn more about how to identify the symptoms of infant brain damage here.
What Treatments Are Available?
Treatments for infant brain damage may include surgery, rehabilitation for cognitive changes, physical rehab and medication. Doctors may begin treatment at the time the injury occurs to reduce swelling and/or bleeding if the symptoms are readily apparent. Read more about treatments that may be available to help your infant recover from brain damage here.
What to Do If Your Infant Suffers a Brain Injury
The first step to justice and compensation for your child's brain injury is to talk to a lawyer. Your attorney will help you to understand the legal and medical terms involved in your case and fight for you and your child's rights in court.
The Brain Injury Law Center has won multimillion-dollar verdicts on behalf of brain injury victims and their families. We have experience handling infant brain damage cases. For example, we obtained $2.2 million for a Louisiana family after an infant suffered a brain injury during surgery.

So I just found out the people downstairs are moving out and I know the downstairs has an extra BR. I was wondering, although my lease isn't up, will my landlord let me move downstairs? And if so, how would that work? Like, would I have to do the process of security deposit and stuff like that all over again? Because I know the rent is $300 more.
Does anybody know anything about renting houses?

He'll very likely be amenable to letting you have the now vacant unit, if you sign a new one-year lease. He may even wave the additional $300 security fee, provided you're a good tenant. If you're a bad tenant he may choose to beat you mercilessly!00|00|0

UK guest rider Mike Neale shares
Gino Manzares bike for the night!
1205 Burton RoadPerris, California
Turkey Classic - Season Opener
Perris Raceway November 19, 2016
By: Steve Evans email@example.com
Results from Perris and are Continued Below...
After several uncertain months Perris Speedway opened it's 2016/17 Winter Season with a bang with Luke Becker and Broc Nicol winning the Main Events on 19 November 2016.
The track was saved by closure due to noise restrictions thanks to rider Rick Richards and Baghouse Inc, coming up with an inexpensive muffler insert that cuts around 5dB off of on track noises. The riders gave a thumbs up to the insert, which does not affect performance but noticeably quietens the bikes.
The days race format used the traditional American Handicap and Scratch racing program. 9 riders contested Handicap racing, with two heats per riders and the top 6 in points making the Main Event. Dillon Ruml charged through the field the win the opening heat of the season from 50 yards, Gino Manzares, also off of 50, came second with Russell Green third from 40. Heat two saw the expected charge from Luke Becker, winning also from the 50. Gage Geist on 40 was second place with Broc Nicol (50) third. Round two saw Green win the first event from Manzares and Nicol. Becker failed the two minutes in heat 4, Geist taking the win from Ruml, with UK visitor Mike Neale (30) in third.
The Main Event featured two riders on 40 yards and four off of 50. It was Broc Nicol who was first through the traffic to claim victory. Ruml came in second place with Manzares third. The race was very hotly contested with six evenly matched competitors wisely choosing their lines as the bikes were often two or three wide.
Scratch Racing saw 16 riders partake. Manzares won heat 1 from Richards. Becker led home Green in heat 2, Ruml headed Geist in a very close heat 3 battle, with Nicol winning heat 4 from Neale and Justin Boyle. Semi final 1 saw Manzares winning and looking very fast, Geist made a fantastic start and took a brilliant second. Nicol made a superb attempt around turn 2 of lap 1 around the outside but he did not quite make the pass to the top two. Semi two saw Becker lead home Ruml from the impressive Richards, who held second until the final lap when Ruml edged by. Nicol won the B Main over Richards and Green.
The Main event was the epic expected. Dillon Ruml made the gate and looked set for the win, once more showing his rapid big track improvement. Becker was having none of it though and he made an inside drive on turn 3 of lap 2 to take the lead and eventual victory. Manzares claimed third place.
Division Two featured 9 riders, each having two heats (Round 2 Handicapped Olympique style). Heats went to Brad Moreau, Rudy Laurer, Hayley Perrault and Rohn Zellner. The winners topped the points chart to make the Main and were joined by Steve Bowen who won the Last Chance. Zellner made the fastest start but he was passed by Perrault who made a superb outside to inside cutback to displace her rival on the way to victory.
Division Three had Steve Brown winning heat 1 with Tom Bryant taking the Olympique style heat 2 and then the Main. 150 Mini Class saw Gavin Geist win all races, the two heats with ease though the Main saw a close battle with Luke Whitcomb. Levi Leutz won all Three Pee Wee Races. Chris Mistretta was the only Vintage rider and he was awarded first place.
The Sidecars put on their expected fantastic show. Jeff Rowe and Josh Bennett won all three races in a great display from Bryan Motis and new passenger Ricky Smith, three wins but three close races with the #2 team.
The six event Perris season continues on December 10th with Round 1 of the Team racing series. The event will also feature the annual Speedway Christmas party and charity toy drive.

He went on to attempt world titles in five sports, failing plenty of times; but ultimately he set 116 records—more than any other human being in history!
What you may not know is Steve and many of the world's most successful people have felt overwhelmed in their lives—they've all experienced great frustration or fear of the risks necessary to do anything that really matters.
There is a cure: Taking Action. You will Double Your Value (or more!) to the people who matter to you when You Ask What Can Do to make a difference. Most people want to make a meaningful impact, but get stuck along the way. In this book, Mark, Bonita, and Marshall reveal powerful strategies from their latest research that will help you make it happen. Read it and then go try it.

Life Cycle: Acanthamoeba Species
Unlike Naegleria fowleri, Acanthamoeba species has only two stages in its life cycle, cysts and trophozoites. The trophozoite measures between 25-50 µm and can be recognized by the presence of slender, spine-like projections called acanthopodia. It has a single nucleus containing a dense nucleolus and reproduces by binary fission. It feeds on a variety of organisms such as bacteria, fungi, and other protozoa. The resilient cyst form can survive for years under the most adverse conditions such as extreme temperatures, pH, drying, and chemical exposures. The trophozoites are the infective form, however, both cysts and trophozoites can gain entry into the body through a variety of means.

Original and Retro LED Watches
The first LED watches were produced in 1972 following a prototype seen in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey. This was the "Pulsar LED" made by the Hamilton Watch Company. This men's LED watch was made in gold and cost over $2000 when first sold, so was not affordable to many.
Not only were they very expensive, but also the display could only be seen by pressing a button, because the power consumption of the LED display was so high.
By 1975 Texas Instruments produced a mass produced plastic cased LED watch for $20, reduced to $10 by 1976. This resulted in financial losses to the Pulsar watch brand and it was sold to the Japanese watch company Seiko.
Even with the dramatic price drop for LED watches their mass production was short lived. This was due to introduction of the more efficient LCD watches, technology that allowed them to have a permanent time display again.
Up until the introduction of watches having a digital display, watches with hour hands, minute hands and seconds hands were just watches. So to differentiate the two types of display those with hands became known as analogue watches as opposed to digital watches.
Modern LED Gents Watches
Men's LED watches have once again become mainstream, both in retro look watches, harking back to their introduction in the 70's with red LEDs, to a host of new styles in watch design. Now you will find LED watches with many other color LEDs besides red.
Gents LED watches padding
Binary LED Watches
These are one of the radical new watch designs being sold. This types of watches have neither hands or numeric displays, but show the time using 2 rows of dots that display the hours and minutes as a binary code.
This might sound complicated, but it is easy enough to use once you have the hang of adding up the numbers indicated.
Other types of men's LED watches displays include watches that indicate the position of the hour and minute hands on a traditional round or square dial face. See Left.
Without the need for the round display of an analogue watch, the display and case can be very exotic.
Power consumption of modern LEDs is better than the original ones, now employing more efficient CMOS technology. So batteries for modern LED watches should last a reasonable time, depending on usage, but you still won't have a permanent display of the more efficient LCD display watches.

Hotel guest satisfaction with costs and fees has risen during the last year, even as the lodging industry has been steadily increasing room rates, a new J.D. Power and Associates study has found.
Released today, the study saw its index measuring guests' satisfaction with hotel costs had risen to 739 (on a 1,000-point scale), a 20-point gain over the measure in 2010.
Over the last year, both nationally and in San Diego, hotel occupancies have been rising, as have room rates, albeit modestly.
"Unlike the airline industry, in which prices were raised aggressively amid limited seat supply and high demand, the hotel industry has enacted more modest price increases and has had spare room capacity," said Stuart Greif, vice president and general manager of the global hospitality and travel practice at J.D. Power and Associates.
The 2011 North America Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index Study is based on responses gathered between June 2010 and May 2011 from more than 61,300 guests from Canada and the United States who stayed in a hotel in North
America between May 2010 and May 2011.
"The bright spot for hotel guests," Greif said, "is that costs and fees remain relatively low, so the value received for the price paid is still quite high. The bright spot for hoteliers is that there appears to be more upward opportunity on rates."
Meanwhile, guest experiences in areas ranging from facilities and operations to services has decreased. The result is that overall satisfaction averaged 764 in 2011, down from 771 in 2010.
Greif speculated that the overall decline may be because investments in hotel improvements, which only now are starting to occur, are lagging behind rising customer expectations.
The J.D. Power survey found that the following hotel brands ranked highest in guest satisfaction within their respective segments:
- Luxury: The Ritz-Carlton (for a second consecutive year)
- Upper Upscale: Embassy Suites Hotels
- Upscale: Hotel Indigo
- Mid-Scale Full Service: Holiday Inn
- Mid-Scale Limited Service: Drury Inn & Suites (for a sixth consecutive year)
- Economy/Budget: Microtel Inns & Suites (for a 10th consecutive year)
- Extended Stay: Homewood Suites (for a second consecutive year)

Rating: B-
Buffalo Trace often displays the innovative spirit of a craft distillery, but with the budget of the big player they are. These are the people who spent roughly $1 million on their Warehouse X, a laboratory for controlling all the major climatic and setting variables that play in maturation, and keep 5,000 barrels of experimental whiskey in total.
This year's first experimental release dealt with infrared light (IR) treatments. Two batches of four barrels each were made, all filled with spirit made from Buffalo Trace Mash Bill #1, generally thought of as the low rye bourbon mash bill (used in Stagg, Eagle Rare and Buffalo Trace). They were also all aged for 6 1/2 years, somewhat less than is usual for the Buffalo Trace experimentals, and bottled at 90 proof.
Conceptually, I believe the idea here was to see if radiative heat adds anything to a brief charring. The first underwent 15 minutes of both short wave and medium wave frequencies at 70% power, and that is the set examined here.
The Bourbon
In the glass, this bourbon has a light amber coloring and shows long, runny legs. The nose steps into candied territory, with candy corn sweetness, vanilla and a little honeysuckle. It's a sweet, mellow and rather rich scent. The flavor follows in much the same vein, with a dash of cinnamon added in for good measure. The finish runs nearly clear, and because the warmth takes its time in rising up, a moment or two follows the swallow where there is nothing but air in it.
I think this first IR experimental bourbon shows less, if anything, wood influence than I might otherwise have expected. Furthermore (although this may have nothing to do with the IR treatment), the bourbon required a lot of air before I could go to work on it. Initially, the nose was hot, an unpleasant surprise for a 90 proof bourbon. Given 15 minutes, it settled down.
The Price
$46 for a 375 ml bottle.

So, notice any changes around here? Yep, my little blog baby is out of her WordPress.com crib and has her own room in the wide wide web world. Big girl! I hope you guys like the changes and bear with me as I work out the kinks.
So, to start things off, I am sharing a super simple recipe with you today. It's September, if you haven't noticed. September my favorite month now because this is Boy's (my real human baby) birth month. It is true what they say about the years and the baby itself sugar-coating your delivery experience. Mine was not a pretty picture, not by a long shot. I'll spare you the details, but suffice to say that thankfully, all I remember now is his sweet little baby face, chubby yet wrinkly fingers and toes the day he was born. Sigh! What has that got to do with this recipe? Err…nothing really, I was just reminiscing about sweet September. I digress (as usual!).
Today's recipe is a roasted tomato soup. With red peppers and garlic thrown in as well. Flavored with oregano and more red chili flakes and finished with shredded cheese on top, it is simple yet so very satisfying. And it is perfect for September because soon the evenings will get longer and there will be an ever-so-slight nip in the night air. Yes, fall will slowly but surely make its presence felt.
This is the month when you can still enjoy summer's bounty, but use them in comforting foods like soups or casseroles. I told you, I loved this month!
And you will too, when you roast some juicy red tomatoes and sweet bell peppers and cook them together to make this soup. Serve with a side of buttered, toasted rolls and dinner is sorted! I am reminded of a classic Indian ad in which a mom says, "Taste bhi aur health bhi". Loosely translated it means "It's both tasty and healthy"!
So, get ready to bring out your cozy throws and polish your favorite boots. But while you wait for the cooler days, make this soup, like a compromise between summer and fall. This will instantly remind you of summer's goodness and fall's promise. The best of both worlds!
You will need: (Serves 4 as a main, up to 6 as a side)
- Tomatoes – 5-6 large ones
- Red pepper – 1, large
- Garlic – 4-5 large cloves, crushed
- Olive oil – 2 tbsp
- Dried oregano – 1 tsp
- Black pepper – 1 tsp, freshly cracked
- Red chili flakes – 1/2 tsp
- Water or stock – 3 cups (use vegetable or chicken stock)
- Salt – to taste
- Fresh cilantro leaves – a few, to garnish
- Shredded cheese – to garnish, optional
How to:
- Pre-heat the oven to 400 deg.F. Quarter the tomatoes and bell pepper. Arrange the tomatoes, peppers and crushed garlic in a single layer in a large baking pan. Sprinkle with oregano, black pepper, red chili flakes and salt. Drizzle olive oil on top. Roast for 20-25 minutes or till they are tender.
- Remove from oven and cool slightly. Blend them till smooth. Take this in a saucepan and add water or stock. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes or till soup is reduced to your liking.
- Season with salt and more black pepper, if desired.
- Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and some shredded cheese. Serve soup warm with a side of buttered and toasted bread.
- The soup will keep for a few days in the refrigerator.
- This soup is equally delicious hot or cold. I actually like to have it at room temperature or even straight from the fridge on warmer days.
- Sometimes I stop the cooking process after roasting and blending the vegetables. But cooking it further with stock will make the soup more flavorful and less tart. This, of course, depends on the kind of tomatoes you use.
- If you do not have fresh tomatoes, feel free to add canned stewed tomatoes to the roasted and blended peppers and garlic. Then you can add stock and proceed as given above.
Do you like tomato soup? Ditch the bleh canned version and make your own with this recipe. Feel free to omit the bell peppers for just tomato soup. But I love the flavor profile of roasted tomatoes and red peppers together.
So, tell me, when do you think is appropriate soup season? I can eat it any time of the year, what about you?
If you like this post, do follow this blog via Email (find subscription box on the right) or via my Social Media pages (again, on the right sidebar). Thank you!
I am sharing this over at Angie's amazing blog link party at The Novice Gardener and Saucy Saturdays.

Bootstrapping frequency domain tests in multivariate time series with an application to comparing spectral densities
We propose a general bootstrap procedure to approximate the null distribution of non-parametric frequency domain tests about the spectral density matrix of a multivariate time series. Under a set of easy-to-verify conditions, we establish asymptotic validity of the bootstrap procedure proposed. We apply a version of this procedure together with a new statistic to test the hypothesis that the spectral densities of not necessarily independent time series are equal. The test statistic proposed is based on an "L" 2 -distance between the non-parametrically estimated individual spectral densities and an overall, 'pooled' spectral density, the latter being obtained by using the whole set of "m" time series considered. The effects of the dependence between the time series on the power behaviour of the test are investigated. Some simulations are presented and a real life data example is discussed.

During the 1980's TecNica sent more than 700 highly skilled volunteers to Nicaragua. These volunteers have helped to empower Nicaraguans—and Nicaragua—by passing on their much-needed skills. In vocational schools and universities; in laboratories, fields, and factories, TecNica volunteers made a major contribution to Nicaragua's economic self-sufficiency.
By 1989, TecNica had also placed 20 long-term volunteers in Nicaragua on assignments of one to two years and longer. Technical volunteers trained Nicaraguans in industrial and agricultural production, health care, water treatment, communications, and data processing.
- At the Windmill Repair and Reforestation Project in San Juan del Sur, TecNica volunteers worked with Nicaraguan apprentices to repair and maintain the windmills that pump water through the region.
- In Managua's La Lascota Children's Hospital, TecNica nurses trained Nicaraguan nursing students in infant care.
- At the Wheelchair Repair Shop at Aldo Chavaria Hospital in Managua, Nicaraguans—many of them disabled by the war—learned to repair wheelchairs.
- Computer programmers and database experts taught computer literacy so Nicaraguans could gain access to the most up-to-date medical, technical, and communications techniques from international sources.
- Physical therapists worked in small clinics in northern Nicaragua, treating victims of the Contra War and patients with industrial injuries.
- Welders and mechanics taught welding and tractor repair in rural areas.
- Welders worked in a Managua dairy, repairing the refrigeration system and training Nicaraguans to maintain it. Providing unspoiled milk was critical in Nicaragua, where most of the population was under age 15.
- Computer specialists trained a Managua collective in software development to help reduce Nicaragua's technological dependence on northern nations.
- Biostatisticians taught students at the medical school in Managua to conduct epidemiological studies to help contain the post-hurricane outbreak of malaria.
- Entomologists trained Nicaraguans to classify and control insects and parasites to reduce crop damage and put nutritious food on Nicaraguans' tables.
Volunteers focused on appropriate technology and training wherever possible to provide a realistic framework from which the Nicaraguans could move forward on their own.

Zero to Clojure Workshop
Colin Jones introduced me to a new (to me) way of learning a new coding language: Koans. After a quick overview of the Clojure programming language, he got us all started on Clojure Koan exercises.
Creating Viral Websites
Emerson Spartz, the founder of Mugglenet (largest Harry Potter website). I had already heard of Emerson via a great podcast interview he did a few months ago. Spartz Media are the people behind OMGFacts (like did you know you can't hum while you hold your nose?), Gives Me Hope and SmartphOWNED.
Some key points:
- He highly recommended the book Word of Mouth Marketing.
- The Viral Coefficient is a method of measuring the virality of content. The goal is to be above 1 (everyone who sees the content refers more than one person).
- Innovation is an adaptation of an existing idea. Stand on the shoulders of giants.
- Three types of content go viral: facts, quotes & jokes.
- For testing, use a small sample size (30 gets you to 90% success rate)
The key takeaway from his session was the simple concept that the more incentive you give to people to share, the more likely they are to share. He identified a couple ways to get people to share.
Bribery – If you want people to share your content, you need to think of every possible way you can encourage people to do so (leave a trail, content hiding, discounts/coupons, donations, ask for referrals, etc).
Quality – It is extremely difficult to create viral videos (Spartz Media gets 1 in 4000 videos to go viral and it is their specialty). No one nows exactly why a particular video goes viral, but there are things that make it more/less likely. The best way to do this is take something that is viral in one community and clone it for another.
Improving Your User Interface with HTML5 & CSS3
Shay Howe, designer and user interface engineer at Groupon led this session. Learned a couple new things like <datalist> and HTML5 Patterns, a great resource for typically used regex's for form validation.
Beyond Display Advertising: Social, Action, Intelligence
This was one of the better panels I've been to. Here are my notes
- The first banner ad was created by Wired Magazine in 1994. Banner ads have not evolved much since then.
- Brands want to do revolutionary things, but they also want turnkey solutions
- Identifying ROI is a big challenge
- Small brands are innovators/guinea pigs
- Brands make a mistake by copycatting popular sites rather than partnering with them, or outsourcing the content creation to their community. Brands need to figure out who they are. Authenticity is important.
- Banner ads are a way of controlling the message and avoiding having to engage directly with your audience. They play it safe, and the result is vanilla.
- Brands care about stuff that no one on the internet cares about.
- Do banner ads need to be clicked on? Or just seen? Are billboards or TV ads clicked on? Maybe we're measuring it wrong. We need to measure that the message is recieved.
API Showcase
The panel discussion started off with a great visual representation of what an API is. Given a puzzle box, the shapes are the data, the app is the box, and the API is the panel with the holes for the shapes to go through.
After the introduction, there were quick demos of the panelists' various API offerings, including Optimizely, OnStar, Appcelerator, Mashery and Twilio. Mashery was very impressive. I look forward to having a project where I can use it. Then Twilio's Rob Spectre live-coded a demo from scratch where he set up a phone number for people in the audience to SMS. Then, his newly created app called everyone's phone back with a Ramones song. Pretty amusing when they were trying to start up Q&A and everybody in the room had their phones blowing up.
Behavior Driven Development
As an application becomes more complex, it becomes impossible to manually test everything, thus unit testing was born. Great for developers, but not understandable to non-technical people. Test-Driven Development was the next trend (write tests first, then code). Like unit tests, difficult to maintain. Behavior Driven Development (BDD) is the next step in the evolution of software testing.
BDD creates a common language between the business, development and QA groups, using features and scenarios. Think of your application as a finite state machine, then break it down into simple testable states. An example:
Scenario: Refunded items should be returned to stock
Given a customer previously bought a black sweater from me and I currently have three black sweaters left in stock
When he returns the sweater for a refund
Then I should have four black sweaters in stock
Only had a chance to get to the last 20 minutes or so of this one. Cofounder Dan Siroker was doing a deeper dive into his A/B testing company which he had demoed previously at the API Showcase. It was pretty amazing during the Q&A when he and his company seemed to have a great answer to every use case that was presented to him.
Mobile Development Q&A
The last panel of my day. Interestingly, none of the panelist's companies were developing pure native Android or iOS apps, but rather doing HTML5, or native-HTML5 hybrids. Native clients responding to an API allows you to be much more agile, and not have to wait for app store approval and deployment. The usual Android fragmentation gripes were aired. Blackberry and Adobe Flash were mocked. There was cautious optimistism about Windows 8 and Metro. Various complicated problems elaborated upon. (sorry, my note-taking skills have degraded throughout the day!)

Amen on the crayons, but you've made it bold and bright.

Thanks, Penny. Crayons are beasts when it comes to reproducing a design, aren't they, Penny, and they don't seem to have as much "oomph" as when I was little. It's almost as if the ingredients have been changed. Anyway, appreciate your having a look.

WOW! Very cool! Love the textures that you achieved with the crayons.
anniedeb says:
I know -- shocking am I, but crayolas can't give detail to eyes no matter how much I sharpened the points. I'm sure there is some talented designer on Spoonflower that can make crayola eyes look good, but it isn't me. Monsters weren't appealing to me if I had to make them scary and ugly! Thank you for your comments, Su.

(Poets and Poetry in America)
The unusual facts of Sandra McPherson's biography come to figure both directly and indirectly in many of her poems. Born in San Jose, California, she was adopted at birth, grew up in this city, and went to San Jose State University. Not only has McPherson's adoption helped to form her worldview, but her reunion as an adult with her birth parents in 1981 has also provided the poet with a heightened sense of both the random and orderly forces at work in the universe. Now that she has known two sets of parents, many of McPherson's poems, especially those in Patron Happiness, have come to focus on the similarities between her own ways of perceiving and those of her blood relatives. The poems also take up attendant questions concerning identity formation and the way a person's life inevitably progresses along unpredictable paths. (See "Earthstars, Birthparents' House," "Wings and Seeds," "Helen Todd: My Birthname," and "Last Week of Winter" in Patron Happiness and "The Pantheist to His Child" and "Big Flowers" in Streamers.)

Extra Innings: Cal still paying dividends
Day 3: Orioles | Extra Innings
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Growing up in Bani in the Dominican Republic, Miguel Tejada's two favorite players – the shortstops he imitated on his country's hardscrabble ball fields – were Alfredo Griffin and Cal Ripken. He worshipped them the way kids around the world now worship him, the 2002 AL MVP.
Griffin played 18 seasons with four teams. Ripken, however, spent his entire career with one, basically becoming the heart, soul and face of the Baltimore Orioles. When Tejada became a free agent this winter, he was still interested in following his idol's lead and took a big interest in Baltimore.
"To be in a group with Cal Ripken is a dream come true," Tejada said. "It is not about money. It is all about how I am feeling. I feel I am going to be happy in this organization because now I will be seeing Cal Ripken more often. I have chance to ask how he do it to make all those plays, how he did it to play all those games."
Tough break for Cleveland, Toronto, Oakland and Los Angeles, where Griffin played but never made the lasting impression of Ripken.
Cal just won another battle for the O's. He got them their next franchise shortstop.
"The good thing for me [is that] I am going to be walking in the same [clubhouse] Cal Ripken walked in," said Tejada. "It is a dream come true for me to be on the same team as Cal Ripken."
The addition of an MVP free agent is huge for the O's, who have been stuck in fourth place in the AL East for the last six seasons. Tejada has averaged 30.5 home runs the past four years.
"He gives you that credibility factor as a team," manager Lee Mazzilli said.
The continued hero worship is interesting, though. Many major leaguers hold past players in high regard, but Tejada seems still in awe of Cal. Just the chance to be around him, wear the same uniform and play in the same ballpark he once did seems thrilling.
Then there is way he says Cal Ripken, with a deep Dominican accent that makes the words come out "Ka Riffkin."
There even is the fact that Tejada is an every-day guy like Ripken most famously was. Tejada's consecutive game streak is approaching 600, a far shy from Cal's 2,632. Can Tejada, 28, make a run at that?
"I don't think so," he said. "I think nobody is going to break that record. I know I have those games played, but I am not trying to break Cal Ripken's record. I play all those games because I like to play baseball."
He was the World Series MVP in 1983 and the guy who used to slide around puddle-covered tarps during rain delays. These days Rick Dempsey coaches first base for the Orioles, and his players would do well to listen closely to his thoughts on being underdogs.
"You know this is just like when Rick Dempsey came to the Orioles (in 1976) with Scotty MacGregor and Tippy Martinez, Mike Flanagan and all these guys," says Dempsey, the former catcher who is now 53 and still a clubhouse favorite. "Nobody knew who the hell we were, either. And we were up against the Reggie Jacksons and the [Graig] Nettleses of the Yankees; Carlton Fisk and Dwight Evans of the Red Sox and all these big name guys.
"Somehow, we managed to do it – one pitch at a time. It can happen again. I don't care what the names are, there's always a way to beat one ballclub. This is a game of mistakes, and the team that makes the fewest will win. All it is is what's in your heart. This team is different from the Yankees or the Red Sox – these kids want to win."
• While the Orioles' facility here lacks the bucolic appeal of Dodgertown, there is something endearing about the place. Yes, it is located behind a strip mall, an industrial complex and a small airport. And it isn't very modern. But it has that working-class appeal of the Indians' training facility in the movie "Major League." The O's are a blue-collar team anyway. Fort Lauderdale Stadium fits the bill.
• Got together with South Florida standouts Craig Stanke and Mark Swanson on Monday night at Sharkey's Raw Bar and Grill. This is where Stanke is a Norm Peterson character and has built a national reputation (at least in trivia circles) as "St. Ank" on NTN trivia. The guy is good. He finished in the top 10 nationally a bunch of times while never taking his eye off his Coors Light.
• Not knowing all of the ins and outs of the Orioles franchise, we were fortunate to have Joe Christensen, the talented beat writer from the Baltimore Sun to set us on some good story lines. The guy knows his O's. We butchered it from there.
• Fort Lauderdale is home to a high-quality Starlite Diner, which like all good such places serves its full menu 24 hours a day. It also is unique in that it has four locations, two in Florida, two in Russia. Russia? Yeah, Moscow. Not exactly your traditional restaurant expansion business plan, but what the heck. The one in Fort Lauderdale has a picture on the wall of Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow having dinner in a booth. But not here. The booth is in Moscow.
• Looks like we are going to have to shuffle the tour schedule a bit. Out is that day trip over to check in with the Spring Training camp of the Port-au-Prince Pirates. We'll leave that one to the Marines.
• The weather in South Florida would have been perfect except it was a bit muggy. Just wanted everyone up north to know that.
• In the off chance you were looking for a home in South Miami, you should give our man Tom Evans of J. Poole Associates a call. We got no kickback for this mention, although he wants to give us a four-bedroom beach house if we'd at least consider violating all journalistic ethics.
• Next campaign stop: Jupiter, Fla.
• Total miles thus far: 143.1
• Number of Peter Gammons sightings: 1 and holding

By David Mayeda
Edwin Sutherland is probably America's most well known criminologist. His theory of differential association has been incredibly influential in criminology. It posits that crime – like any other type of behaviour – is learned. And there are some specific components to Sutherland's theory of differential association, seen below:
- criminal behaviours are learned
- learning of criminal behaviours takes place through criminal teachers
- learning of criminal behaviours is more effective when the teachers have close, intimate ties with the learners
- crime techniques become more intricate and refined over time
- criminal behaviours are defined and valued in a favourable light
- motives for crime are different from motives behind non-criminal behaviours
It should be noted that Sutherland actually focused his theoretical positions on white collar crime – arguing that all types of crime, irrespective of their class parameters, were learned. Still, the theory can be applied in a variety of class contexts.
Now let's look at another clip from The Wire that freaked me out … until we saw its ending. And as the ending of this short scene is revealed, pay attention to how the different components of Sutherland's theory can be applied.
Real quick, a little background on what's happening here. In this snippet, young Mike is being chased by mentors Chris and "Snoops" – two hardened, ruthless gang members. But eventually we learn that the chase is an exercise for Mike, in which he demonstrates the knowledge required to effectively engage in a gun fight:
Clearly at 2:45 of the video, we see that criminal behaviours are being taught and learned. There are older teachers/mentors (Chris and Snoops), and they have very close ties to Mike. In fact, Mike turned to Chris during a time of need to take care of a family problem Mike couldn't cope with himself. In this scene, we also see Mike demonstrate that he is learning the more detailed dimensions of shooting targets (where to aim, from what distance). And Snoops's smile at the end as she says, "Aiight, boy's learnin", illustrates the criminogenic behaviours – and Mike's progress in mastering them – are being assigned with positive values.
Stay tuned, more sociology and The Wire coming up…

How many websites are formed every day? And how many more of them are left neglected and wanting? And how many of those are about anime? Website members who enjoy the privilege of contributing to discussions on affiliation requests from other websites will understand when I say that there's plenty out there for anime fans. In fact there's probably too much, which is maybe why affiliation requests are often turned down, even though the website in question may be quite good.
So what's Anime-Source.com still doing here? Created just over a year ago by social outcasts Frundock and Kaiser, it arrived on the scene, one might say, rather late. There were already plenty of well established websites offering similar content things to fans as us, so shouldn't we have crashed and burned long ago?
This is what I wondered as helped myself to another slice of fruit cake and sat at my computer, trying to write a maiden editorial for our latest endeavour, the new Ezine; yet another sign of Anime-Source.com's expansion due to ever-growing popularity. What is the secret of our success? When I first joined Anime-Source.com, a couple of months after she was launched, there were about 500 registered members. Just a few weeks later membership had more than doubled. I was so intrigued by this sudden boom in interest that I decided to plot a graph of new members against days and sure enough, just after I joined, there was a massive surge in registration. Well, what can I say? I guess I'm just a really great guy! Actually, those who can remember that far back will know that I contributed an article about it at the time and a year on, I find myself doing the same thing.
This website's success has been remarkable. We had to move to a new server to keep up with demand on the bandwidth, and since then we haven't looked back. In fact our current features are so well established and successful now, that we're currently developing new ones: this Ezine for one, an anime database for another... we're even trying our hand at fansubbing!
For those who are interested, we now receive some 100 unique hits a day and I wonder (as I did a year ago) where all these hits come from. I figured most new visitors must come here via a quick search in google, so I made one. I went to Google.com and typed in anime, expecting to find the website straight away. Let's say the top 20 to be generous. Four pages later I decided that the top 40 might be more realistic. Eventually, after passing references to Winamp skins (not to mention getting repetitive strain injury from all that clicking next page), I decided to rethink my strategy. Obviously I wasn't typing the correct words, so I tried again; this time anime releases. That seemed sensible enough; we have a new releases section after all... nothing - not a sausage. By this stage my hopes were beginning to wain a little. Perhaps I should try anime reviews. We have plenty of those; that should do the trick... (sigh). I tried just about every combination of anime and some other website related word I could think of and literally the only thing that brought me to a reference to Anime-Source.com was by doing a search for anime source and even then the reference was on the second page.
Well, clearly searching in google.com is not best way to find Anime-Source.com after all so I decided to ask the members directly how they found us. Interestingly, most (91 of the 418 who voted) found us by linking from another website. Even more interestingly, the second largest majority (79 members) heard about this website from a friend. Like so many other things on the Internet, people seem to be hearing about us through word of mouth (remember that wonderfully tedious dance track featuring the memorable lyrics All your base are belong to us?).
But this doesn't really help in answering my original question, what is the secret of our success? A year ago, I put it down to a friendly atmosphere and the launching of I's manga. It's the only thing I could think of. Now I'm not so sure; on reflection I suspect that it's mostly due to some lucky development on good, solid foundations. Kaiser had a clear vision of what he wanted and he had the determination and loyal support of a few others, most of whom are still with us, to follow it through. A year on that team has grown and grown and includes not only staff, but also all of the regular contributers who have made our forum the wonderful and friendly place that it is (and, in my opinion, the best anime forum on the net).
So what's the secret of our success? Well, I don't know... that's what makes it a secret! But I think you guys might have something to do with it.
