Beginning Down Under
Photos by Jarrod Partridge
After packing their suitcases whilst still digesting their Christmas dinner, the new generation of Rapha Condor JLT riders caught the 24-hour flight to Australia for an eight-week training camp.
There are many ideas on how best to prepare a team for a season, where to camp, how to train and what to focus on. Team training camps take place all over the world, the location often dictated either by tradition or cheap accommodation. However, Rapha Condor JLT's 2013 Australian training camp is a little different.
Although the two and a half month stay will keep almost the entire squad out of the worst of the European winter, keeping out of the cold is in fact only a pleasant sideline of the mission statement for training Down Under. The real draw of the Southern Hemisphere for John Herety's team is to get his young riders racing in the thriving Australian domestic scene.
The beauty, if you want to look at it that way, of the globalisation of cycling is that the racing season is now so long it can almost see where it starts from where it ends. As soon as the action dies down on one hemisphere, the other one sparks into life. 2013 has been no exception, starting as it did on the 1st of January at the Bay Series in Melbourne. It means 10 to 15 days of quality racing under their belts before the European season begins, something Herety considers vitally important:
"I want our riders to race, because I want them to start thinking about winning races, and learning to do that. Young guys want to become bike riders because they want to win bike races but it can be easy for many to get lost in the process at times. I want this team to win bike races, and the way you learn to win bike races is to do them. Here in Australia, being as it is a really busy period in their racing calendar, we have a number of opportunities to work on that."
What Herety is looking for is that primal instinct in the riders: to see if his riders are bike racers or not. It sounds ridiculously simple, but it isn't. And it isn't as simple as a rider saying that they want to win, or being needlessly aggressive in a race, it is much more subtle than that.
"These riders have come recommended to me, so as is the case with a few of them I've not yet actually seen them on a bike. I only know them by their racing results and their test scores. One of the things I saw that impressed me the most on the first day of racing here was a tiny thing but it was very important. On the second or third lap of his first race I saw Ed (Laverack) coming round a bend underneath another rider, he took one hand off the bars while leaning right over and moved the other rider out of his line. You could spend three weeks with a rider in Spain training in the pre-season doing all sorts of drills and you would never see that kind of instinct on display."
At this embryonic stage in their careers, there is a lot more than just bike racing that needs to be learnt. The Rapha Condor JLTriders have to start understanding the intricacies of team life, being on the road together, looking after themselves physically in foreign environments, looking after their diet, and becoming used to long periods away from home. For most of the young riders in the team the eight-week training camp in Australia will be there first long trip away from home – a good way for the riders to start getting used to that reality. Herety explained:
"It is something that you get a lot with British riders [not wanting to be away from home], but since we've arrived in Australia you can tell from the way this lot are behaving that they are still in the honeymoon period; they are all still quite excited. We've been pretty busy with racing, but now though we are settling in to the camp I think it might get harder for some guys. I've seen riders start to get a little stressed about not having an Internet connection so they can easily call a girlfriend, or be in contact with home."
33 year-old Kristian House is one rider who has proved that he has the mental fortitude to deal with long periods away from home, having done trips like this throughout his career. Almost ten years ago he was on his first flight out to Australia for three-months of training with the GB track squad. House recalls:
"When I finished high school I packed up straight away and moved myself to Belgium. I already had a lot of experience by the time I first came here, which these guys don't have yet. You've got to be able to cope with being away to succeed in this sport."
As Herety explained, Australia is an 'easy' trip in that regard. Things could be very different in another time and place when perhaps the location for a lengthy stay isn't quite so appealing.
"Because it's an English speaking country that makes a difference. I think if I'd said we are off to Spain for six weeks on Boxing Day, and we were starting racing on New Years Day out there, then it might have been a bit different. There are a lot of changes to get used to being here, but most of them are upgrades if you like. Changing seasons from winter to summer is a challenge, but it is a nice one. That makes a big difference and it's why Australia is ideal for this kind of camp."

With the Verizon now available on iPhone, iPhone owners in the US will, for the first time, be able to savor the sweet and delicious taste of competition. Up until recently, AT&T was able to do as it pleased with its millions of iPhone customers, but with Verizon now entering the race, both carriers will be trying to out-do the other as each looks to steal subscribers away from the other. Or in the case of AT&T, prevent users from defecting to Verizon.
Early on Friday, 9to5Mac reported that AT&T was sending text messages out to iPhone users, thanking them for sticking with AT&T and offering them 1000 bonus rollover minutes on the house. As far as we've heard, this offer is available to all AT&T iPhone customers and if you haven't yet received a message indicating as much, simply text the word "yes" to 11113020 and you'll get a text back stating that your account has been credited.

Burke invited to participate in USA Nat. team mini camp
Tim(Knicks), Trey(Jazz), Morris(76'ers), Manny(Magic), Deshawn(Celtics),
Udoh(Bucks) and Crawford(Clippers) are in very different places in their careers, but all start NBA training camp this week. With the retirement of the last Fab 5 holdout(Juwan) comes an influx of former Maize and Blue talent into the NBA.
Burke will be thrown into the fire in Utah. It's his show, and as a top 10 pick he'll face significant pressure to be "the man" from the second he steps on the court.
Tim Hardaway will have plenty of time to ease into his "Allan Houston" role on the Knicks, as two shooting guards will be teaching him the ropes(while he rides a good bit of pine).
Darius Morris is expected to contribute significant minutes for the 76'ers. I know he loved being at home, but I think Philly is finally going to give him the run he needs to develop..
Manny enters training camp with the Magic just trying to break back into the NBA. From most accounts he is a longshot to stick with the Magic, but you never know who is watching.
Deshawn Sims enters training camp with the Celtics trying to make an NBA roster for the first time in his career. He has dominated the D-League, the Summer League, and he's turned heads overseas, but his dream of playing in the NBA may not come true with the Celtics who return a bunch of really talented forwards. It still amazes me that Deshawn's combination of size and touch haven't landed him a spot somewhere. Maybe this is the year(but probably not with the Celtics).
Brian Ellerbe recruit Jamal Crawford has been in the NBA since the turn of the century, but really didn't become a crossover specializing superstar until 2003 with the Bulls. Since then, he has been a bit of a journeyman, averaging 16ish points for the Knicks, Warriors, Hawks, Trailblazers, and finally last year with the Clippers.
Tommy Amaker Recruit Ekpe Udoh has been a bit of a disappointment since being drafted #6 overall by the Warriors. Now he's averaging 4pts and 3rebounds in 18 minutes with the Milwaukee Bucks.
As a side note, it seems that Dion Harris managed to dodge recent events in Syria(He had been playing with the Al Karameh Homs) and has landed with the Piratas De Bogota(Colombia).
Trey Burke first game as Jazz today!
Syracuse talks their 2-3 zone and how it will be tough for Burke
Disclaimer: It's a freep article and sorry if this has been posted. Didn't see anything yet.
The video clip is benign, but the comments in the article could possibly add some extra motivation for Burke and company in tomorrow's game.
MBB 2012 - What pair are you most excited for?
With the 2012 Basketball season approaching at ludicrous speed (Seriously, Exhibition play begins in under a month, and the NIT season tipoff in 5 weeks), I thought I'd pose a bit of a snowflake here, but one that we should all have good fun with at any rate.
It seems that, in many basketball years, a pair of players come together either as a starting group or under special circumstances (like when a team goes big or small), and bring a special element to the court. For instance, in 2010-2011, it seemed like Morris and THJ paired up in beautiful ways sometimes, with Morris finding ways to get THJ the ball in places where he could make it rain. It just seemed like when they were clicking, things really took off.
I'm wondering if there is a pair of players for 2012 - 2013 you're excited to see pair up, to see what transpires.
I really hope we get to see Michigan go big with Morgan and McGary at the 4 and 5. If you'll all remember last year, when Morgan took on Sullinger and pretty well owned him:
It shows us what an evolving, fired up Morgan is capable of. He has the heart, the motor, and the body to get it done. Now put a 6' 10" beef machine with the heart and motor of Novak next to him, ready to collapse on the hoop to put down opponents' attempts to go up, or pick up offensive boards like they were pennies on the sidewalk. It's the kind of big inside combo Michigan hasn't had since before I really got into watching them. I'm excited.
Is there a combo for this year that excites you with possibilities? Doesn't have to include freshmen. Just another year of development can help big time, even with veteran players.
Trey Burke makes Myron Medcalf's "Avengers" Squad
Over at the college basketball watercooler blog on ESPN.com Myron Medcalf named his Avengers team for the 2012-2013 season. Which consists of Nerlens Noel, Cody Zeller, Doug McDermott, Peyton Siva, and Trey Burke. Basically this is a preseason All American team and I thought it was cool to see a Michigan player getting some publicity. When was the last time a Michigan Basketball player was a preseason All-American.

Straight Female Looking For Another Straight Female Cabin Dw
I was planning to cruise with my cousin this fall but she has some unforseen expenses and can't make it. If I could find a sane straight female cabin dweller I could avoid paying the single supplement rate.

My friends and family are not into cruising and it's very difficult to find someone to go with me. I'm interested in going to anywhere but bermuda. Four or seven days is long enough for me. I enjoy doing the excursions and any thing else to have a good time.
I am looking for another female to share the cost of a cabin for a 7 day or longer cruise. I absolutely love cruising but my husband wants no part of it. I'm a non smoker and non druggie looking for same. I do drink while cruising but not to get drunk. I like to dance in the night clubs because I think it is wonderful exercise, not to pick up men. I love the beaches, the sun and the fun. Cruising IS my release. I prefer to go on 2 or 3 cruises per year. If you are interested in cruising together some time let me know.

A six-month blitz on anti-social behaviour in the Abbeydale Road area has been announced by police.
Officers have put a dispersal order in place following pressure from businesses and the public for police to stop groups gathering and being disruptive.
Sarah Jameson, owner of Jamesons Cafe and Tearooms in Abbeydale Road, said: "We've only been trading for 12 weeks and we were broken into two weeks ago.
"They got into the shop, then into the office and stole some float money, stole my laptop and smashed all the locks on an antique desk.
"It was awful. We're a small business trying to make our way."
She also said the tearoom is disturbed by youths on quad bikes going down the road during the day, and she often sees youngsters congregating at night.
The order, which will be in place until November, means any group causing problems will be asked to leave the area.
Youngsters out without an adult between 9pm and 6am will be taken home or to a safe place, and those ignoring orders could be arrested.
The order will apply to everywhere between Bramall Lane, part of Sharrow Lane, Wostenholm Road down to Archer Lane and just beyond Carter Knowle Road.
South Yorkshire Police Sergeant Dean Hill said: "There has been an escalation in problems in various locations, such as Broadfield Park and St Peter's Church, caused by a certain number of youths.
"This includes criminal damage, verbal abuse and the risk of accidents.
"We hope that the order will achieve a reduction in the anti-social behaviour that has caused difficulties for residents and businesses, and improve confidence."

A Filipino dad working in Ireland has told of his devastation after finding at least 10 of his family have been killed in the Typhoon Haiyan.
Heartbroken Jaime Casilan, 50, who works as a chef in Walkinstown, Co Dublin, told of his shock after hearing his relatives were among the 10,000 dead.
He said: "When I called my sister this morning in Manilla, she told me the very bad news that 10 of my relatives are gone and the rest are missing. It's absolutely devastating. It's very sad."
Speaking to RTE Radio 1, he said that his family didn't evacuate the area as they didn't think the flooding would be as bad.
He said: "My sister told me on Sunday that they decided not to evacuate. But the Tsunami in Japan, the water was only 10 or 15ft high but in my country, it's 25ft."
Mr Casilan told how he lost aunties, uncles and nieces - including two children who were swept off a roof by a 25ft wave.
He told the Irish Daily Mail: "My niece was only thinking of the typhoon, she wasn't thinking of the water from the seas and how high they might rise. So they didn't leave the house.
"My sister said my niece and family went up on the roof but the water was up to there anyway, it was that high. She (my niece) tried to save the two children, and died trying to save them."
The 50-year-old, who lives in Clondalkin, with his wife and daughter, still doesn't know if he's lost other members of his family.
His loved ones were living in the Leyte province, Tanauan, near the sea.
Bodies have been left hanging from trees at the roadside after one of the most powerful storms ever recorded.
The typhoon pounded the east of the island nation on Friday before heading inland, levelling 90% of buildings in its path.
Oxfam's Deputy Humanitarian Director, Graham Mackay, said: "This is one of the worst natural disasters in years to hit the region. It will be a race against time to get help to the communities that have been devastated."
Philippines President Benigno Aquino declared a "state of calamity" and was last night considering whether to impose martial law as his people hunted high and low for clean water and shelter.
Soldiers were sent to deal with looting.
Aid efforts in the Philippines could be hit this week with heavy rain forecast.
UNICEF said it was also rushing urgent supplies to ravaged areas.

The Suddick View
SuddickTheKing gives his views after 'Pool's 0-0 draw at home to Brighton.
After 20 minutes of this match I turned to my friend and said "These teams have been set up not to lose - the manager prepared to introduce pace or skill will win it". I was hoping that that would be Larry of course. However, as a turgid first half ground to a close there was so little of interest in the game we were watching that the half time talk was of other scores. So, my heart sank when the same eleven took the field for the second half - there are matches where a good rollocking and gee up in the dressing room will have the desired effect but this was not one of them. This one needed a change of personnel and tactics.
Brighton were in such a comfort zone with 37 year old Guy Butters in complete control at the heart of their defence, the only way we were going to upset them was to introduce the pace of Keigan Parker and the guile of Wes Hoolahan to supplement the great link play of BBB and the intelligent runs of Andy Morrell. Although KP and WH were to be brought on, to my horror Morrell was the first to be subbed - I`m sorry but you do not improve your team by taking away the quality play of one of your most influential players. The removal of Forbes was undoubtedly correct but Morrell should have been subbed on Tuesday when we were 2-0 up and cruising, not at a time when we are desperately trying to find a goal in a match we really needed to win.
Furthermore, the removal of BBB meant that we never won a header up front in the last quarter. Again, the time for subbing BBB was Tuesday when SSV could have come on and had 20 mins to score a goal when chances and supply were plentiful; on Saturday he was put on as a last throw of the dice and Butters and Co. were quite happy to see the aerial threat of Burgess removed.
Although we huffed and puffed we could not blow Brighton`s house down and unfortunately all our significant chances seemed to fall to Jorgensen. He really should have done so much better with two close range headers. Overall, we were not great with the usually impeccable Barker only above average. Coidy, Evatt and Gorkss performed well. I should add Rachubka to those three because even though he had very little to do, he produced the save of the game to keep us in it. Midfield was, frankly, poor. Forbes and Gillett were way below par, Fox was again far too deep and Jorgensen worked hard but to little effect overall. Could this be a good time to give Marcus Bean a run out? I think we desperately need something different in the 'engine room`.
Perhaps this was just 'one of those days` but at this stage of the season we cannot afford to have them - especially at home - and it was noticeable that despite a very healthy crowd the atmosphere was flat.
The only positives I take from a frustrating Saturday afternoon are the performance of Wes Hoolahan who was more like the jinking will-o`-the wisp we love, and the fact that we actually went up a place in the league. This is a tough division and it is all still to play for.

The daunting task for Tampa's new "arts czar" is convincing creative types that home is where the art is.
TAMPA - The big question is this: Can a city government create a new downtown?
Local history has tended to answer with a resounding no.
But Paul Wilborn believes, and that's a large part of his new job.
Mayor Pam Iorio recently appointed Wilborn to the newly created, $90,000-a-year post of Creative Industries Manager, but around town, he's referred to as Tampa's arts czar.
In taking the job, Wilborn, 51, has in some ways traded his slightly raffish past for buttoned-down establishment.
For many years, the Tampa native was a fixture on the arts scene. He lived for years in Ybor City, writing and acting in plays and performing in a popular band, Paul Wilborn and the Pop Tarts. His day job as a journalist, first for the Tampa Tribune, then the St. Petersburg Times in Tampa, got him around town a lot, too.
He left the city for about five years, going to the University of Michigan for a fellowship. He fell in love with a German reporter there and followed her to Berlin. When that relationship ended, he moved to Los Angeles as an Associated Press writer. He was there when Iorio, elected in March, summoned him home. He and his fiancee, an actress he met in California, have bought a house in Seminole Heights.
"I first met him at an artist's studio in Ybor," says Brad Cooper, an artist who now owns a gallery there. "It was all very bohemian. He was upbeat all the time, a friendly, congenial guy."
"I knew him because he worked in the Pop Tarts," says Melinda Chavez, executive director of the Tampa Bay Business Committee for the Arts, who had a catering business at one time. "He was often the entertainment when I was catering. He was a lot of fun and very personable."
Charm and personality, which everyone who speaks about him acknowledges he has in abundance, are not typical requirements for a municipal job.
And Wilborn is still vague about the exact form his work will take. He has "resisted making too many goals," in part because the city has embarked on a national search for a director of cultural affairs, who will be Wilborn's immediate boss. But he has met with dozens of arts groups and individuals, "starting to find links between business and the arts, to see what we can do to make Tampa a better place for people to live."
And not just any people. He wants "creative people," the kind of folks who are now a buzz word thanks to Richard Florida's best-selling book The Rise of the Creative Class.
"We all went to hear him talk and worshiped at that altar," Wilborn says, "and now we're all true believers" in Florida's idea that cities need to foster creative people to be successful. So, he adds, "in hiring me, the city is saying the arts are important. I want to help arts groups connect to the business community. I want to look for things and events that will put us on the national map."
Wilborn arrives at a time when the new administration of Mayor Pam Iorio, who was elected in March, is refashioning the concept of a cultural arts district inherited from the Dick Greco administration.
About two years ago, Greco unveiled a fancy master plan for the cultural arts district. A year later, city officials presented a design for a glamorous new Tampa Museum of Art that, with an expanded Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, would be the district's crown jewels.
The plan included a revamped, pedestrian-friendly Ashley Drive, a new Tampa Bay History Center, a sweep of park, a riverwalk, and a pricey high-rise condominium near the museum.
Those components are all still in play, Wilborn says, though Iorio acknowledges there are no funds yet for the riverwalk. Speculation is that the history center will occupy another downtown site. The TBPAC expansion is on schedule; but fund raising has lagged for the museum and Iorio has said it won't be built until it's paid for, though she's confident the money will be found. And, most significant, the new administration is revisiting the idea of a high-rise on the original 1.25-acre site.
The district is the centerpiece many in Tampa hope will transform the downtown into a community, not just an complex of buildings.
It's an idea the Tampa Bay area has heard before.
St. Petersburg suffered through two failed attempts to build a large arts, entertainment and retail district in its downtown. The first was a festival marketplace along the waterfront that was defeated in a referendum vote in 1984. Then came Bay Plaza, an ambitious public-private partnership that ended in 1996 with acrimony between the city and the developer. The recent, much smaller BayWalk complex of shops, restaurants and movie theaters has been a hit, but it was built only after other successful independent developments, ranging from high-rise condominiums to an influx of more retail and restaurants, proved viable.
Clearwater city government, too, has tried to macro-manage a master plan, but its residents voted down a referendum in 2001 that would have started a $300-million downtown redevelopment.
But officials in Tampa, including Wilborn, believe this one can work.
"I think there's a rediscovery of the urban experience by people who want to live here," he says. "We can make this a place where people live and work, a place for the arts."
Wilborn is soft-pedaling the arts-district label.
"I want to get away from this label "cultural arts district,' " Wilborn says. "It's not a district because you put a museum there. One high-rise next to a museum isn't going to create a district either."
Still, a lot rides on that high-rise, or any other type of residential development. It's the one part of the plan that can begin the transformation of downtown Tampa to a round-the-clock place to live, work and play, as downtown St. Petersburg has become.
"The linchpin is housing," Wilborn says. "Name a spin-off restaurant or business around the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center. There isn't one. You don't fill up downtown areas with people driving in. You fill it up with people living there."
The nearby Channel District, which includes the Florida Aquarium and the Channelside movie/restaurant complex, already is on its way to becoming an urban living center with at least six residential projects planned or under way. But like St. Petersburg's downtown, its renaissance began not with a large development but with more modest residential projects.
Tampa officials agreed in March, near the end of Greco's term, to sell the downtown land near the museum to the Clearwater-based Byrd Corp. The developer's design calls for a 25-story tower with at least 100 units, priced from $200,000 to $500,000. But Greco never signed off on that agreement, leaving Iorio the option to rethink it, which she is doing.
"The concept of a high-rise tower is on hold," says Fran Davin, special assistant to the mayor. "We met with the Byrd people and wanted time to do a review."
She says they are exploring the idea of a low-rise cluster of condominiums, possibly closer to Ashley Street. Because it would require more acreage, they are also looking at demolishing the Poe Garage. They are probably wise to rethink it. Another local developer with a track record of luxury urban housing believes a high-rise condominium, or possibly any kind of large-scale project, in that location is too risky.
"We had a chance to make a proposal on that parcel," says Ian Irwin, chief operating officer of Southeast Companies. His firm built Vinoy Place in downtown St. Petersburg, an upscale combination of four midrise towers and townhomes, but only after smaller, lower-priced urban residential projects were already filling up the downtown, and the adjacent historic Vinoy Resort had been remodeled into a three-star hotel.
"We passed (on the downtown Tampa project) because I didn't have a great sense of who would want to live there. The museum will be there but I don't know if that will be a great generator. The Museum of Fine Arts was in St. Petersburg for years before much downtown residential development happened. This (in Tampa) has the river view and is close to University of Tampa, which is good. But would people want to walk around there at night? And with all the alternatives, why would someone want to live there? We thought it would be a tough deal even if the city gave away that land."
Instead, Irwin is building a 23-story tower on Tampa's Bayshore Boulevard, with 50 condominiums priced from $500,000 to $2-million. He says 60 percent of them are reserved.
Chavez remains optimistic about the residential project.
"Someone's going to do it first," she says, "and once that happens there will be a flood of others. I hear rumors about more new downtown housing all over the place."
Iorio, for her part, isn't blinking.
"Our goal is to have a residential community downtown," she says.
Which is where Wilborn comes in. His mission is to bring those "creative" people downtown.
"I think he was a good choice," says Chavez. "He was very much a part of the arts world here and has a history, an understanding of it. And he knows everybody. I see him as being responsible for encouraging and growing arts events in the city, to help create things that will make people want to come downtown. And I don't mean just to the arts district."
One thing Wilborn is clear on is that he's not a fundraiser.
"I'm not going to be out there asking for money that could go to arts groups," he says. "One of the things I want to do is find links between business and the arts. One I see early on is housing for artists. Seed artists into areas and give them the space to rehearse, work, live."
Some specific ideas: "a space bank," in which empty downtown office and retail space could be used by artists, for whom the rent would be lowered or forgiven. The city would help out by providing insurance just for those specific areas. Both would help remedy the traditional money issues that preclude artists from moving into established business districts.
And is that preferential treatment fair to other small, struggling businesses?
"You can't really say it's only going to be for artists," Wilborn says. "Creative people can be defined in a lot of ways."
And what about Ybor City?
"Ybor is the product of too much success and excess," Wilborn says. "I see signs of hope; the viability of megabars isn't what it was. But Ybor is not really my focus."
Wilborn understands that getting things done will take more than glad-handing.
"This is a results-oriented mayor," he says. "Pam Iorio believes the arts are important and we need to show progress in developing links between business and the arts and in making this a better place for creative people to live. The hardest part will be keeping the momentum going. But I'm struck by the optimism of this new administration: that Tampa is on the verge of something."

I'll have to go digging to find my notes on the issue, but I did a similar thing with a FreeBSD secondary/Windows primary setup at my old workplace, and had similar symptoms. I was dealing with multiple domains, though, and you are working within a single domain, which may be the difference here.
For laughs, you could try putting the new version of sendmail on DragonFly and see if it works "right". That may be more pain than you feel like enduring right now, though.

Continued from page 2
16) iBooks Author Software
I wrote my book, Catalyzing Innovation, using Apple's iBooks Author Software. I consider myself fairly tech phobic, yet even I found it relatively easy to use. If it hadn't been for iBooks Author, I may never have written the book. The page layouts looked great, it was easy to insert and size over 500 images, and seeing it all come together in finished form as I wrote, was extremely gratifying and kept me going.
17) iBooks Author Phone Support
iBooks Author has GREAT phone support. The people are knowledgeable and care about helping you get your project done. I couldn't have published the book without them. So far, from what I've been able to determine, it appears neither Amazon nor Barnes & Noble have any comparable, human support for eBook publishers.
18) When You Call The iBooks Author Support Line, Apple First Gets Your Phone Number & Apple ID
This avoids the aggravating, time-wasting experience that frequently occurs when you explain a problem to a call center, only to be disconnected when placed on hold, and then having to start all over again with someone else. If disconnected, Apple will call you back!
19) Software Development Kits
In Apple's early years, created all the hardware and software for all their products. Now, their relatively easy to use Software Development Kits (SDK's), have resulted in over 1,000,000 apps being developed, subject to Apple's quality control approval. This enables app developers to make money on their apps globally if they sell them, or to at least have a place to distribute the apps if giving them away free. The tremendous variety of helpful and entertaining apps also make Apple's devices much more useful and a valued part of people's lives.
20) Questionnaires on Satisfaction
After experiencing Apple customer service, I am often sent a satisfaction survey. To me it's an indication Apple wants to continuously improve every aspect of the customer experience. It also makes it very easy to provide them hopefully useful feedback.
The lesson of all of this is that for firms to win the loyalty and devotion of their customers, they need to experience their brands as their consumers do to determine all the ways they can make the product or service experience better, more pleasant, more human, and more productive. Each brand should develop a detailed customer touchpoint or journey map with all the stops along the way before, during, and after purchase. They should think of ways to differentiate beyond the obvious to surprise and delight customers. Maximizing touchpoints doesn't have to be more costly. In some cases it can save money in customer service and advertising due to more favorable word of mouth. It just might have the highest return on investment of any marketing aspect!

| Title from eBook information screen..
|Summary, etc.:
| Hafez al-Assad became president of Syria in 1971, following a long line of military leaders. At first, his goals included achieving pan-Arabism, more evenly distributing the nation's oil wealth, and extending the party's power by reaching into every aspect of Syrians' lives. However, through a series of poorly planned economic programs, censorship, and old-fashioned greed and corruption, Assad and his government brought intimidation and the loss of freedom to the nation's people. After his death in 2000, the nation's ruling party elected his son, Bashar, as president. Bashar has continued many of his father's policies, enforcing his own will on the nation and stripping people of their freedoms and economic prosperity. In The Assads' Syria, learn more about the internal workings of one of the world's most devastating dictatorships.

Coby #11 had the early lead in the on-going Kobe-on-Coby battle as he received well wishing from the home crowd just minutes after Kobe #24 heard the boo birds as he was being introduced to the capacity crowd at the STAPLES Center on opening night. But while the old saying "winning cures all" is almost always true, "dropping 45″ comes off as usually true and Coby #11 was back as second fiddle (Karl dressed instead of first round pick Javaris Crittenton as Jackson preferred his length).
The much ballyhooed booing that is being tossed around in the press today (not only did I have to hear Colleen Dominguez ask the same question 10 different ways, but I had the pleasure of listening to her recount the story on ESPN Radio this morning) lasted literally two sequences before giving way to guarded cheers and not long after that the standard "M-V-P" chants.
Yes the boos from the home crowd were shocking based on the love that the Laker Faithful have always shown Bryant through his darkest hours, but they were short lived. Even the most adamant objector would have a tough time booing a guy that goes for 45 points and 8 boards.
More important than the crowds reaction to a single player is that the Lakers are now 0-1 on the season. While that's the only number that really matters you can get all your statistical breakdown goodness from the boys over at Forum Blue & Gold. The numbers shed an unflattering light on the second unit that played so well together in the pre-season. Their inspired play in the exhibition season can be attributed to the line changes that Phil was making. The substituion pattern that works in the pre-season (and the NHL) brought them great success, but isn't a reality during the regular season. This unit needs to have a better performance for the Lakers to go anywhere this year.

Epic `Earth' Covers Too Much Ground / Historical, personal in uneasy balance
Published 4:00 am, Friday, September 24, 1999
EARTH: Historical drama. Starring Aamir Khan, Nandita Das, Rahul Khanna and Maia Sethna. Directed and written by Deepa Mehta. (Not rated. 104 minutes. In English and in Hindi with English subtitles. At the Embarcadero and the Albany in Albany.)
In 1947, when the British granted independence to India, they created an arbitrary partition, cutting the country in half and creating a Muslim nation in Pakistan and leaving a predominantly Hindu India.
The South Asian subcontinent was devastated by the bloody schism -- more than 11 million people were uprooted -- and remains divided today. It's an unbelievably vast subject for a film but one that Deepa Mehta, the gutsy writer-director of "Fire," tackles nonetheless.

In "Earth," an ambitious drama that opens today, Mehta goes back to 1947 in the city of Lahore, formerly part of India and now the capital of Pakistan. It's a passionate, beautifully mounted film -- but the agenda she sets for herself is too large and the conflicts she portrays too complicated to be illustrated in a single drama.
Basing her film on the novel "Cracking India" by Bapsi Sidhwa, Mehta creates a microcosm of India with Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs living side by side, and tells her story through the eyes of Lenny (Maia Sethna), a sweet, handicapped 8- year-old girl.
Lenny's wealthy parents are members of the neutral Parsi faith, which presumably makes them safe from conflict. But when the partition is announced, just two days before independence, the Hindus who work for them and the ayah, or nanny, who attends to Lenny are all in jeopardy.
Mehta has assembled a gorgeous cast: Nandita Das as Shanta, Lenny's ayah; Rahul Khanna (a former VJ on Asian MTV) as one of her suitors; Aamir Khan, a film superstar in In dia, as another suitor; and Kitu Gidwani as Lenny's mother.
To illustrate the country's deepening hostilities, Mehta stages a number of dinner-party scenes where the talk explodes into Hindu- Muslim-Sikh rancor -- first in the home of Lenny's parents, where an angry Sikh grabs a smug British colonial by the throat, and later in a restaurant where Shanta's suitors, a grab bag of Indian archetypes, are turned into spokesmen for the country's various factions.
That kind of dramatic structure, illustrating the universal through the specific, is very tricky. It comes across here as an overly deliberate way of boiling down political complexities into easily digestible nuggets.
Mehta, who took on paternalism and the oppression of Indian women in the controversial film "Fire," stages a number of rallies and mob skirmishes: a Muslim man torn in half by two cars going in opposite directions, a trainload of massacre victims arriving in Lahore with gunnysacks filled with severed breasts. Those scenes have a devastating power, especially because Mehta illustrates their impact on young Lenny. But "Earth" is far more successful in quieter moments, when the characters emerge as individuals and not as political or religious representatives.
The best sequence is a love scene between Das and Khanna. Warm and lyrical, it captures the emotional connection between the characters as well as their desire, and manages to eroticize both characters instead of making one the object, the other the subject.
Balancing the personal and the historical in one story is always tricky, and Mehta, who is Indian by birth and lives in Canada, makes a courageous effort. "Earth" has urgency and emotion and a fierce love of justice, but it never quite masters the burden it takes on.

News Cowboy Bebop DVD Collection Delayed
posted on 2013-10-02 09:00 EDT by Andrew Osmond
Update - Anime Limited has confirmed the November 4 date was an error, and the DVD edition will in fact be released on November 18.
Anime Limited posted the message below on its facebook page, regarding the complete series DVD edition of Cowboy Bebop. (It does not affect the second part of the Blu-ray edition of the series, which is still on track for October 14.)
Due to an output quality issue picked up during the quality control review, the DVD collection of Cowboy Bebop is being delayed until November 4th. This issue is currently being amended - the box set disc number will increase to 6 in order to maintain the quality expected of this release.
I've attached a screenshot of the issue to illustrate this point. [See the link above for the screenshot.] While it greatly upsets us to delay this release, we simply cannot release the series in its current state. We apologise for the delay and hope you will enjoy the series in its full remastered glory when it arrives.
In subsequent comments, Anime Limited said, "Cost will not go up. We have to master two extra discs but we've decided to absorb this cost. We listed the set at a price and we'll honour that."

LEVIN, Anna Sara Shafferman; BARONE, Antonio Alci and SHIROMA, Mario. Fulminant hepatitis: a clinical review of 11 years. Rev. Inst. Med. trop. S. Paulo [online]. 1989, vol.31, n.4, pp.213-220. ISSN 1678-9946. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0036-46651989000400002.
24 cases of fulminant hepatitis (FH) hospitalized in the Clínica de Doenças Infecciosas e Parasitárias do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo during the period from January 1976 to December 1986 were reviewed from their clinical, epidemiological and laboratorial aspects. 88% of the patients died; 20 patients (83%) presented hemorrhages and, of these, 19 died. Bacterial infections occurred in 14 patients (58%) all of whom died. Ascitis was noted in 3 cases; cerebral edema was present in 16 cases. Maximal ALT levels for each patient during hospitalization ranged widely from 81 to 4,460 UI/l. Thirteen patients presented high creatinine levels (54%). Prothrombin time activity ranged from 2.1% to 67%. Fever was present in 20 cases (83%). Encephalopathy occurred within the first 2 weeks of illness in 72% of the cases. In 7 cases other illnesses were present. The etiology could not be determined in 13 cases. In 3 cases it was due to yellow fever and 6 cases were caused by viruses other than yellow fever. In one case the cause was drug usage and in another case, possibly alcohol. The authors believe that the clinical definition of FH requires further discussion before it is established. In this study FH is a young person's disease. The mortality found was similar to that by other authors. Factors that contributed to death were: hemorrhages and bacterial infection. Factors that worsened the prognosis of hepatitis were: associated illnesses and surgical procedure. The levels of ALT during hospitalization did not correlate well with the severity of the hepatitis. The authors believe that yellow fever should be considered a cause of FH where the clinical picture meets the criteria for such, although its mechanisms of encephalopathy remain obscure. The clinical details of the 3 cases of yellow fever are presented.
Keywords : Fulminant hepatitis; Occurrence; Complications; Yellow fever.

Reviewing a sandbox game is always a tricky endeavor. First, you have to abandon the usual yardsticks of game evaluation: its length, its challenge, and the satisfying nature of its objectives. Secondly, your enjoyment of Topia World Builder will come down to a very subjective evaluation that reflects how much you're prepared to give to it, rather than take away.
Fortunately, the game has one thing in common with the guilty pleasures we all secretly harbor about videogames: it looks bloody fantastic. Greens, blues and purples blend together as you create sky-high mountain ranges, while more peaceful valleys and sandbanks can be carved into the ground. You will unashamedly tease and rotate at the planet to take in your masterful handiwork.
You do all this with some very accomplished controls. Finger swipes rotate the planet, pinch-zooms bring you nearer to or further from the planet, and there's a series of icons that allow you to shape what's happening on the ground with precision.

Discussion in 'Tennessee Titans and NFL Talk' started by Titanup1982, Oct 14, 2012.
Alex Smith 3 picks so far wow
Yep. The old Alex Smith has returned.
-1.72 fantasy points. He is really trying to lose some games for me... I have him in multiple leagues starting for Cam on a bye and ahead of Romo who I figured would suck against the Ravens.
Might as well have started VY this week.
I still don't understand why folks think the 49ers are the best team in the NFL.
Because ESPN tells us they are
Buffalo will win now.
Hopefully this win doesn't give them confidence against us.
A win over the Steelers is > a win over the Cards, not matter how you slice it.
Best when they play 49er football they are. They got behind, and tried to pass there way back in... doesn't work with Alex Smith as your QB.
Elite defense & legit run game.. paired with a terrible QB.
guess everyone's a packers fan tonight?
Never thought id say it, but Go Pack Go!

Members of Denby Cricket Club are busy preparing for the season in spite of the cold weather.
With the season but a few weeks away, both junior and senior players have been busy indoors, hoping that British Summer Time will bring a change in the weather to enable outside training to start.
The club will also be taking part in the ECB NatWest CricketForce Initiative on April 5-6.
The aim of the project is to help clubs prepare for the coming season which is scheduled to start within a couple of weeks.
The snow and cold weather in March has seen preparations adversely affected and the club is calling on all members to volunteers sometime over the weekend to help catch up.
Work will start at 9.30am on each day.
Looking ahead to the season, the club as always has a busy programme of matches at a levels.
With additional teams at under 11's in 2013 along with 6 senior teams and a growing women and girls section the club is keen to attract additional players of all ages and ability, male and female.
Anyone wishing to find out more about the playing opportunities (senior or junior) available can contact Mick Glenn on 07976 504276.

Overexposed photos?? when i hit my shutter release button, sometimes the flash doesn't pop up and the view finder goes black. (it's like the camera is taking a picture but when I release my finger from the shutter release button it doesn't release) The only way to "get out of it" is to turn the camera off then back on. when i go to playback...it is a white picture. are my settings messed up and how do i avoid this in the future. Many picture moments are missed because of this!
The view finder "going black" on an SLR is caused by the mirror being up, which is also when the camera is actually taking the picture! The mirror sends the light from the lens to either the viewfinder or the sensor. When it's down, the light goes ... Nikon D80 Digital Camera with 18-135mm Lens
My Pentax W90 camera won't stop taking pictures when I turn it on. At first, it would take 2 pictures without me pressing the shutter and the screen would get "locked" (no menu or other buttons would do anything). Then, after changing the battery, the camera continually takes pictures until I turn it off. The flash goes off with each picture.

Fujifilm A330 My camera is doing something rather strange; it's always switched on by sliding the front shutter open all the way, and it's ceased turning on when I do that.

On my Sony Cybershot DSC-P8 camera, the shutter will not operate when I press the shutter button to take a picture. Everything else seems to be working. This happened all of a sudden. The camera took about 8 pictures, then after turning it off for about 2 hours, it would not take any more pictures.

I've barely used this camera. After taking a picture last night, I thought I'd change the settings. When I pushed the menu button, it froze up and the screen went blank. It has remained this way.

White screen? My camera has suddenly stopped working. When I press the red 'shoot' or green 'review' button, all I get on the display is a white screen. Pressing the shutter button does make it shoot, and the zoom and the flash work. I have just taken the card out and examined the jpg files - it is still taking pictures. So it's the display that is busted. I guess my question is: Is it worth the repair bill to get it fixed?

Tunisian police fired tear gas Tuesday to disperse hundreds of angry protesters demanding jobs in the central city of Kasserine, two days after a young unemployed man committed suicide, local residents said.Mass unrest in Tunisia five years ago was triggered by the suicide of a disaffected young man and sparked revolutions that transformed the Arab world. Hundreds of unemployed protesters had gathered in front of the headquarters of the Kasserine governorate, where some threatened to commit suicide, prompting tear gas salvoes by security forces to scatter them, witnesses said.Kasserine is among Tunisia's most impoverished areas, with its highest regional unemployment at about 30 percent.
