He is a member of the National Book Critics Circle (NBCC) and of the US section of the International Association of Art Critics (AICA-USA).

When Pam and I wrote our first name book, Beyond Jennifer & Jason (back when Jennifer & Jason were still baby names), we had a little section called NAMES THAT ARE TOO MUCH TO LIVE UP TO, listing examples that had such a potent image that whey would overpower an innocent babe–including such biblical temptresses and goddesses as Jezebel, Salome and Venus. Well, things have now changed to the point where those names and others equally powerful have slipped into the mainstream. Why? Partly the current anything-goes atmosphere, partly some tipping point moments, such as:
DELILAH: WHY THE BAD GIRL RAP? Biblical temptress who betrayed Samson. DEFUSER? Lame old Tom Jones song; was considered as baby name by Rachel and Ross on Friends.
DESIREE: WHY? Precocious French teenager engaged to and then jilted by Napoleon. DEFUSER? Jumped onto the Social Security list in 200 at #181. Not sure why.
JEZEBEL: WHY? Scheming, promiscuous New Testament hussy; name came to mean hussy. DEFUSER? Feminists started to see her as a victim, became the name of a hot weblog. Name still means hussy.
LOLA: WHY? Sexy 19th century Spanish dancer/courtesan Lola Montez, sexy Marlene Dietrich character in The Blue Angel, sexy Pajama Game song 'Whatever Lola Wants, Lola Gets'. DEFUSER? Madonna nicknames baby Lourdes Lola, Kelly Ripa mentions daughter Lola every morning
LOLITA: WHY? Iconic Nabokov lollipop-licking nymphet; DEFUSER? Actress Lolita Davidovich says it's a common name in Eastern Europe, director Brian de Palma bestows it on his baby.
SALOME: WHY? Deceitful dancing New Testament seductress, seen as even worse in Oscar Wilde play and Strauss opera; DEFUSER? Not sure, but it was defused enough for TV actress Alex Kingston to use it for her daughter.
SCARLETT: WHY? The Scarlet Letter, phrase "scarlet woman," spoiled and selfish Scarlett O'Hara; DEFUSER: Scarlett Johanssen
VENUS: WHY? Roman goddess of love, deadly Venus Flytrap plant; DEFUSER: Tennis ace Venus Williams

So recently we had a dog kind of dropped on us, we had been looking for a dog but I was uninterested in buying from a breeder. So we put the word out that I was looking and started seaching rescues for the perfect dog for me. My boyfriends boss had a friend who was having a rough time(lost his job, girlfriend,and was about to lose his place) and had a pitbull boxer x named roxy roller that needed a home before he moved to work on the oil rigs. I was apprehensive, I work with dogs and I wont lie the over excited boxers I meet at work and her previous owners hectic life were not encouraging. I agreed to meet the dog anyways, we met at a dog park on a very busy afternoon and that was that, I was smitten by her big brown eyes and laid back personality, so we agreed to take her on the condition she would be spayed before she came to live with us. A feaweeks later after no contact he calls to say he cant afford the spay so I tell him fine ill get it done but he needs to tell me when to book it. No contact except a message through my boyfriends boss that we might get her in september, then nothing so began looking again.
The out of the blue this weekend he calls to say we can have roxy saturday night or sunday becaue he was leaving monday, this came as a surprise as we hadnt heard from him in forever so we were in the process of moving into a new house, but either we took her or worked around moving and getting her spayed so she could come to work with me or he would toss her to the pound or the first person to answer a kijiji ad. So as the bleeding heart in me pleaded, we took her home yesterday.
Shes on shut down now, not crated as she has some anxiety over the crate that we're working on, were also working on nilif slowley but surely. Lots of fun treats hidden in her crate and a handful of kibble in my pocket at all times, I smell great! Anytime she does what shes supposed to a tasty treat pops under her nose. Not working on commands much obviously, except sit because she pulls like a beast on leash for her potty breaks. Im amazed by how much she sleeps for being just over a year, and we'll be off to the vet soon for her spay as well.
Basically im here to learn all I can to help thia girl have a good life.

Re: Kadreena&roxy
Oh wow just read that over, sorry about the bad spelling/gramnar im on my phone and my auto correct is horrible.
Re: Kadreena&roxy
Welcome! Thank you for having an awesome heart and taking this dog in. I think you are doing everything right so far. Please check out the Dog Park thread in General I think it is, if you plan to continue taking her there like her owner did. I wish you tons of good luck with your adventures with her!

Re: Kadreena&roxy
Welcome! She sounds like a lucky girl! Are you guys in AB?
Re: Kadreena&roxy
We are in calgary alberta, I am not intending on continuing to go to the off leash park. The things that her previous owner didnt tell me are mounting, she is being very reactive when she sees dogs even from down the street while shes in the yard. Also she keeps having these barking fits at me where she runs at me then crouches, lunging, growling and barking in a seemingly aggressive fashion, im reaching out to local owners and trainers I know in hopes to adress this issue. I am concerned at this point that I may not meet her needs, she never does this towards my boyfriend only me.
Re: Kadreena&roxy
I hope we can help you out.

What, No Gifts? Why You Shouldn't Expect Gifts at Your Wedding
The Wedding Guru puts a bride in her place after she complains about not receiving as many gifts as she'd hoped
(page 1 of 2)
Every so often, the Wedding Guru receives a question and is simply dumbfounded. This is one of those occasions!
A Hudson Valley bride asks: "My husband and I got married several months ago. It was a lovely wedding and we got lovely gifts from most of our guests. We are both, however, surprised that there were several guests who did not give us anything. Can you tell me how we can go about reminding them that we never got their gifts, and that gifts are appropriate from people who attend a wedding?"

It is estimated that the gaggle of 2008 presidential hopefuls will spend, collectively, more than $1 billion in campaigning.
Based on 62 million votes cast in the 2004 presidential election, we're talking $16-plus for each vote.
The largest chunks of that will be to purchase television, radio, and online advertising, and to hire public relations firms and other image-crafting specialists to try and convince voters that any given candidate is the man/woman who will step up and solve all the nation's woes.
The challenge is to take a (in most cases) multi-millionaire, who is accustomed to a lifestyle the average working person can only dream of ($400 haircuts, private jets, million-and-up homes, glitzy social events, etc.) and turn him/her into a carefully-scripted robot, who can mouth the same I-share-your-pain platitudes and hot button sound bites day-in and day-out, without (hopefully) doing or saying anything that will cause unfavorable attention by the media or Internet bloggers.
And above all, to position them to raise as much money as possible to buy more ads and more exposure.
Election 2008 is more than a year away, and through June 10 Republican candidate Mitt Romney had already placed nearly 5,000 TV ads — more than all the other candidates combined. In the first quarter, he raised a whopping $20.7 million, second only to Hillary Clinton's $26 million, both eclipsed in the second quarter by Barack Obama's record shattering $32.5 million ($58 million January-June).
The general perception of the public, when these huge amounts are hyped in the media, is that they're chiefly contributions from John and Jane Doe, supporting candidates in whom they believe. In reality, major amounts come from 900-pound gorilla special interests, such as the health care industry, oil/gas companies, the military/arms sector, insurance companies, and other big business entities that have a huge financial interest in how political winds blow.
"The avalanche of health care industry cash is corrupting public policy on health care," says Michael Lighty, public policy director for the California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee, which recently released research on the influence the industry wields on Capitol Hill. Leading recipients of health care industry campaign contributions are Hillary Clinton and Mitt Romney, according to the study.
"These staggering sums have a crushing impact on policy," says Deborah Burger, the organization's president, nothing that the avalanche of cash "produces huge financial benefits for the health care industry."
In federal lobbying alone, the industry spent over $2.2 billion in the past decade, more than all other industry sectors combined. It paid off big this past April when the Senate, after heavy lobbying by the pharmaceutical and insurance industry, killed legislation that would have let Medicare use its bulk purchasing power to negotiate lower prices for prescription drugs, with billions in savings to the taxpayer.
That's just one of countless examples. Only the most naïve could believe that the millions of dollars funneled by major corporations into political coffers don't buy influence that has potential to pay handsome returns.
And we all are the poorer for it.

MARCUS Harris originally found fame as one of the stars of the 1970s TV series The Famous Five.
But in an about-turn, the 50-year-old ended up serving the people of Wallingford as their deputy mayor in 2006-7.
Now the South Oxfordshire district councillor will return to the small screen, starring in a new children's programme.
It will feature young Oxford actors, and he hopes he can help out the next generation of young performers.
Mr Harris, who played Julian in the TV adaptation of Enid Blyton's classic novels, pictured centre, said he hoped his experience would help youngsters who will audition for two parts in the series.
Open auditions to find two 10 to 18-year-olds for Darton High, about life at an inner city school, will be held at the Sea Cadet Hall on Donnington Bridge Road, Oxford, on Saturday.
Mr Harris said: "The reason I'm involved is someone gave me a chance over 30 years ago on The Famous Five and that was such an amazing, positive experience.
"It gave me confidence and communication skills, so if I can help the other kids out for TV and get them to appreciate the value of working in a team that is fantastic."
A member of South Oxfordshire District Council since 2003, Mr Harris retired from acting after his two years in the ITV programme from 1978-79 and went into business.
But five years ago he returned to professional acting and has appeared in biopics about authors Philip Pullman and Ernest Hemingway.
He plays headteacher Brian Davis in Darton High, which first appeared as an internet drama on YouTube almost three years ago. It was launched by Youngstar TV Film and Acting School as a way to give their young actors the experience of appearing in a drama series.
The show was then picked for television by That's Media, the parent company of new local TV stations That's Oxford and That's Solent, which are set to launch this autumn. It will become the main drama on the stations.
Mr Harris got involved for the TV series after Youngstar advertised for a headmaster. The sixth episode of the first series will be filmed in Oxford, as will all the episodes of series two.
The casting sessions will be run by Youngstar and its founder Louisa Baxter said: "It is important to have Marcus involved because he can talk to the kids about what it is like to be on the set. He is someone who has actually done it.
"Children increasingly think they can go on X Factor or Britain's Got Talent and they will instantly be a star and that is not the case.
"You have to work hard and Marcus demonstrated that, because he did a lot of stuff as a child. There is a transition between doing something as a child and then doing it as an adult.
"In Oxford there is quite a big arts scene so I think it will be quite a good place to do it and find some local talent."
Mr Harris said: "We are looking for supporting artists as well, those people who are not successful in the leading roles may well have success in the supporting roles. The audition process will involve film and TV workshops.
"We will see a lot of potential talent, this isn't just an extra part in the back row."
To take part in the casting email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 02380 477717.

Sources: Speed Won't Air F1 After This Season
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The Associated Press has learned that Formula One will end its 17-year relationship with the cable channel Speed at the end of the season.
Two people familiar with the negotiations say F1 was in talks with NBC for U.S. broadcast rights and Speed would not be renewing its contract. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because there was no official announcement.
Speed partnered with F1 in 1996 in the network's first full season on the air. Speed moved to live coverage in 1997 and has expanded to live coverage of qualifying and practice sessions of the most popular motorsports series in the world.
The departure of F1 comes as Speed parent company Fox moves closer to rebranding the motorsports network as all-sports carrying FOX Sports 1.

I have posted this recipe before, long ago but took it down when I deleted my old blog. However, watching Masterchef on Tuesday, and the food memory topic really got me thinking. There are so many great food memories, and I will still do the post of my childhood food memory, but this one not only brings back great memories, but my husband loves this dish!
When I lived in Chicago, I worked for a Jewish orthodox family, the mom was of Italian decent and wow could she cook. I use to watch her when she made the Shabbats dinners and learnt many way of cooking Kosher, however, when she made Pasta al Vodka, it soon became my favourite pasta sauce. I have tweaked it slightly.
The best part of this sauce is that you can make it vegetarian or you can add meat, I do the latter as my husband does tolerate my meatless moods, however he leans towards having his protein as meat, not legumes or beans that I try and feed him.
I am going to try and be as exact as possible, however, for those who are loyal followers of my blog knows that as a chef, I cook by feeling, so go with what you are in the mood for. In this dish, I like to have strong flavours that all marry together.
Pasta al Vodka
serves 3 – 4
350g chicken breasts
300ml cream
100g bacon
1 large onion, chopped
2 tbsp fresh rosemary chopped
garlic to taste
1 tin tomato puree
1 can whole peeled tomatoes
1 cup vodka
½ tsp sugar
Parmesan cheese, grated
Fry off your onions in olive oil until transparent, add the sugar to the onions and let the natural juices release. Add the garlic and fry off a little more, the extra moisture will prevent your garlic from burning and bringing a bitterness to the dish. Add the tomato paste and fry off until the oils release, add ¼ cup of the vodka to deglaze the pot. Add the bacon, fry off and add another ¼ cup of vodka. Add the chicken, and fry until the chicken changes colour, add the whole peeled tomatoes, rosemary, left over of the vodka, season and let simmer on a medium heat for about 15 minutes. Add the cream, and let simmer for a further 10 minutes.
Serve with your favourit pasta, topped with parmesan cheese and enjoy.

Swinging on 3-0 count. Smart move, dumb move, or inconclusive?
Disclaimer: Any evidence in this post is purely anecdotal. I don't have numbers in front of me.
It appears to me, and has been mentioned in game threads when it happens that the Sox are getting green lights on 3-0 count at a very noticeable rate compared to the teams they are playing and previous Sox seasons. Having Marcus Semian do it is a pretty clear sign to me that Robin is saying "you had better not serve up a meatball, because we are going for it!" to the opposing teams. Where do you stand on this?
To me it is a smart move that is long overdue. Ever since I started following baseball 30 years ago, I've always hated the fact that a good hitter is taking an automatic strike on a fastball down the middle just because it is 3-0. By taking away that freebie, the Sox are putting in the back of that pitcher's mind that he is not getting a break and is still going to have to make a good pitch. By doing this, it should lead to more walks. And when they do get the meatball that they can drive, good things will happen. Even if the result is a foul ball, it still sends the message. Not saying they should be swinging away every 3-0 count, but I think that any reasonably competent hitter should be given the OK to swing if they get something they think they can hit. Obviously I want the Leury Garcia's of the world to be taking all the way.
Of course, I am only remembering the times it worked. Alexei's HR, Semians sac fly last night, etc. Plus even though the Sox appear to be doing it, I have no idea how they compare to other teams in the league. So this could all be moot.
So what say you? Are the Sox forward thinkers who are currently exploiting a minor inefficiency? Or are they just being stupid overaggressive?
What is Mind? -- Doesn't Matter!
What is Matter? -- Never Mind!
-Homer Simpson
I like the idea, but some hitters are just too dumb to get the green light and will take that as a sign to swing no matter what. If you have a smart, well coached team, who understands the situation, then hell yes, swing away.
I like it. Any major league batter should be able to handle a fastball "down the middle." In fact, this September 2013 article shows the average on 3-0 pitches from 2007 - 2013 was 0.377. About 94% of the time, the 3-0 pitch is a fastball. However, there's about a 30% chance the pitcher will throw ball 4. So, you have to balance the additional benefit of putting the ball in play versus the safe bet of a walk and what your chances are of getting a good batting result after a 3-0 count. I didn't calculate OPS from the chart, but it looks like you get much more benefit from being allowed to swing 3-0 than taking a 3-0 pitch. There's a good comment about the article that only the best hitters are allowed to swing 3-0 so the numbers are skewed.
I don't know if Moises Sierra qualifies as a reasonably competent hitter, but it was clear he had the green light on the 3-0 pitch in the bottom of the ninth. He took what appeared to be a slider (but the game log has it listed as a cutter) for a strike. The fact the pitcher did not throw a fastball might suggest the scouting report on the Sox is that they will swing on 3-0.
I think little Leaguers should always take a 3-0 pitch.
A good major league hitter, obviously depending on the situation, should be looking for his pitch on 3-0 and if he gets it he should destroy it.... otherwise, take it.
It depends on the hitter, the pitcher, the situation and the inning.
It's similar to the mind set of swinging at the first pitch. Paul Konerko generally takes the first pitch but in Game 2 of the '05 WS with the bases loaded Paul swung at the first pitch, if he makes an out, he's over aggressive, if he hits a homerun, he's a world series hero.
However, with runners on and one of your best/most disciplined hitters at the plate, I see no problem with them being given the green light. anytime the tying/go ahead run is at the plate or on base in late inning play, any middle of the order hitter should be allowed to try and make an impact with a big hit.
Riding shotgun on the Sox bandwagon since before there was an Internet...
I definitely want Gillaspie, Eaton, Abreu and Dunn green-lit.
always taking 3-0 seems like a theory developed to work in little league that becomes some kind of shared consciousness
May 9th vs Arizona I was sitting in the section by homeplate (my first game of the season.). The Sox loaded the bases. Alexei had a a 3-0 count. I videoed the pitch because I figured that if Alexei got a green light in that situation he was going to screw himself into the ground swinging for the fence. Alexei connected with a Grand Slam and I had a great video.
"In time you can turn these obsessions into careers...Hurry Down Doomsday the bugs are taking over." - Elvis Costello
Strategically, the Sox might be better off with Semien moving the runner over to third than walking. The Sox need one run to win. A walk sets up a situation where Sierra has to move the runner over to third, probably with a bunt. But the walk creates a force at third. In the bottom of the ninth with the score tied, I would rather have Sierra hitting with a man on third and one out with a drawn-in infield than having Sierra hitting with runners on first and second and nobody out.
Swinging at the 3-0 pitch depends on the situation and it depends on the hitter. Statistically, I've always read that hitters are well over .300 when swinging at 3-0 ends the at bat, but that makes the rate of outs over .600 (although Semien's "failure" on 3-0 Wednesday night was key to winning the game). Obviously, there are many more walks on 3-0 than there are hits, so your OBP and OPS in that situation would be deceptively unreal for this conversation.
It could hitters aren't getting more green 3-0 green lights this year as they are feeling more comfortable swinging 3-0. It is entirely possible that hitters who walk on four pitches have the green light on 3-0. It's possible that hitters with the green light will take the first strike on 3-0. If the strike isn't what they were looking for to drive, you would hope they would take that pitch. There are some hitters who will swing at bad pitches on 3-0, and those are ones you don't want to have the green light. Over the years, I've seen Konerko take a lot of 3-0 pitches when it appeared he was ready to swing. There are players, Konerko not being among them, who it would appear don't like to swing at 3-0 because walking seems to be a statistical priority with them. Even if you take a strike 3-0, the pitcher can still walk you on 3-1.
It depends on the hitter and the situation. Even after Semien swung on 3-0 to get Garcia to third, I didn't expect Sierra to swing on 3-0. For one thing, I thought the pitcher was working out of the strike zone to get Sierra to chase to get the strike out. For another, a walk there would bring up Eaton. Sierra would have a good chance to steal and there would be all kinds of pressure on the defense with the infield in.
There was the Sox win over the Diamondbacks this year were there were two 3-0 home runs, of course, Ramirez hitting a 3-0 grand slam and Abreu later leading off an inning with a 3-0 home run. There was an A's game this year Derek Norris hit two two-out three-runs home runs off Gio Gonzalez, each time on a 3-0 pitch. The second gave the A's a 7-0 lead in the bottom of the second. I don't watch every A's game, but the last I heard he was 2-for-2 on 3-0 swings, but had taken ball four about eight times.
I suppose it doesn't hurt in the scouting report that this guy will do bad things to your pitches if you try to sneak in a 3-0 strike. But it comes down to execution.
I'm a big fan of working the count.
3-0 should be a take unless the hitter sees a pitch they can hammer, and even that should be tempered based on game situation.
Like if there's no outs in the bottom of the ninth and we're down a run.

Quality Japanese wine? It's no oxymoron
Looking for a drink in Japan?
A bottle of sake or a few pints of a domestic beer are the most obvious choices, but wine drinkers should give the local grape, the Koshu, a chance.
Koshu wine is produced by about 80 vineyards in the Yamanashi prefecture at the base of Mount Fuji.
Ayana Misawa, winemaker at Grace Vineyard, describes the variety as charming, with a crisp acidity and low alcohol level.
"Koshu has a very elegant smell," she says. "Aromas like citrus, white flowers."
Misawa, the fifth generation winemaker in her family, is part of a movement to bring international techniques to Yamanashi to improve the quality of the product.
She studied methods in France, South America, Australia and New Zealand.
Now she strives to make more international, "food-friendly" Koshu.
Japanese wine -- getting better
Wine experts say thanks to efforts like Misawa's, the quality of Japan's wines has improved significantly in the last five years.
At the Japan Wine Competition, an annual event held in Yamanashi, judges say the focus now needs to turn to making Koshu a name people recognize.
"I think we have to do various things and encourage people to taste it, because once they've tasted it they really like to buy another bottle," says master of wine Lynn Sherriff, a judge at the Japan wine competition in Yamanashi.
More on CNN: Pairing wine with Asian food? Yes it can be done
One factor that could hold Koshu back is price. Due to limited land and high labor costs, a bottle made from Japan's local grape will set you back more than many other varieties.
The wine pares well with Japanese food though, and can make a nice companion for travelers already splurging on Japan's infamously pricey food.
Koshu isn't the only grape used in the Yamanashi vineyards.
Wines are also made from the Muscat Bailey A, a grape variety that's been developed for the Japanese climate. It can deliver wines in a variety of styles.
Wine writer Denis Gastin believes koshu is just the beginning of an international journey for Japan's wines.
"There's a good story there, and the world will enjoy that story," he says. "It's starting to be told with Koshu, but there are many other stories as well."
Grace Winery offers tours by reservation. Tours are in Japanese only; +81 (0)553 44-1230.
If you're in Tokyo and want to give Koshu a try, Grace Winery recommends the following places:
Wine bar & shop JIP, 2-7-1 Shinjku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; +81 (0)3 6380 1178
Y-Wine (Italian), Nihonbashi Plaza Building 2F, 2-3-4 Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo; +81 (0)3 3527 9185

Vault Law Editors
July 11, 2012
Each year, in addition to its overall prestige, regional, practice area and diversity rankings, Vault also compiles "Quality of Life" rankings. Associates are asked to rate their own law firms on a 1 to 10 scale in several categories: satisfaction, culture, hours, compensation, associate/partner relations, transparency, formal training, informal training and mentoring, pro bono, business outlook, selectivity, green initiatives and office space.
In addition to individual rankings for these categories, we also use a formula to determine the overall best law firms to work for, which takes into account satisfaction (40%), hours (10%), pay (10%), associate/partner relations (10%), business outlook (10%), formal training (5%), informal training/mentoring (5%), pro bono (5%) and overall diversity (5%).
For the second year in a row, Williams & Connolly has been ranked by its associates as the best law firm to work for. So what makes W&C's associates so happy?
First of all, they love the work they are doing. Associates from the firm said their job was "endlessly interesting" and that there was "hands down, no better place to be a litigation associate." Many associates commented on the substantive work and client interaction they were able to have from day one. Attorneys at the firm also say that the culture there can't be beat (indeed, Williams & Connolly ranked No. 1 for culture this year). Respondents said that "partners and associates go out of their way to meet new members of the firm," and that the firm is "astonishingly non-hierarchical" and "built around respect for one another as colleagues and people." The firm also received No. 1 rankings in both business outlook and selectivity—so although you'll be happy once you get there, expect some fierce competition on the way in.
Ropes & Gray, Vault's No. 2 best firm to work for, was another quality of life standout this year. The firm received No. 1 rankings in Formal Training, Informal Training and Mentoring and Hours. Like associates at Williams & Connolly, Ropes attorneys also raved about the amount of substantive work they received, but they seemed uniquely happy with their BigLaw hours. One respondent explained that "some days are long, but if you need to get off for something, you generally can." Another said, "[I] often work too much, but I've never once worked hard without it being noticed." The general consensus from associates was that the firm's hours requirement was "humane" and "reasonable." And the training—which includes a trial preparation program, structured and unstructured mentorship, and regularly scheduled lunchtime programs—was described as "excellent," "top-rate" and "extensive."
Here's a look at the No. 1 firms in each of our quality of life rankings:
Best to Work For: Williams & Connolly ("Can't imagine being happier at another law firm--or frankly, in any other job as a lawyer.")
Satisfaction: Williams & Connolly ("The work is interesting and challenging; the pay is above market; the resources are essentially unlimited; the benefits are excellent; the coworkers are intelligent and generally great to be around; and the partners care about associate development.")
Culture: Williams & Connolly ("A good mix of social and professional")
Associate/Partner Relations: Munger Tolles ("Our firm keeps a very low partner to associate ratio, so associates are valued and given lots of responsibility.")
Transparency: Munger Tolles ("The firm's finances are completely transparent--we all get a monthly financial report showing how many hours everyone has worked, what revenues have been brought in, etc.")
Compensation: Boies Schiller ("Probably the best-paying job in Big Law.")
Hours: Ropes & Gray ("My hours seem very reasonable compared to friends at other BigLaw firms.")
Formal Training: Ropes & Gray ("It is unbelievable the amount of time and effort put into these programs.")
Informal Training and Mentoring: Ropes & Gray ("I've been lucky to work with partners who are very interested in my career advancement and provide opportunities and feedback.")
Pro Bono: Patton Boggs ("I am required and HIGHLY encouraged to pursue fulfilling pro bono work, and the firm's commitment to such work is part of what makes me so satisfied with my job.")
Business Outlook: Williams & Connolly ("Great morale, fantastic client base, interesting new business, consistent cycle of work.")
Green Initiatives: Fenwick & West ("The firm is exceptionally conscious of its environmental impact.")
Office Space: Thompson & Knight ("The best office space among law firms in Dallas.")
Selectivity: Williams & Connolly ("The firm is only interested in hiring the best of the best.")

The Tower of Hanoi is a puzzle that consists of three pegs and a set of disks. Each disk has a different diameter and a hole in the middle so that the disk can fit onto any of the pegs. The initial puzzle setup has two of the pegs empty and all the disks on the third peg (source) in monotonically decreasing order of diameter from bottom to top, which forms a structure that is reminiscent of a tower. The goal of the puzzle is to move the tower from the source peg to a specified peg (destination) using the other peg to temporarily hold disks. The two rules of the Tower of Hanoi puzzle are that only one disk at a time can be moved from the top of a stack of disks on a peg to some other peg, and disks with larger diameter cannot be placed on top of smaller diameter disks.
French mathematician Edouard Lucas developed the puzzle in 1883. He also created the myth for his puzzle that claimed monks have been working non-stop on a 64-disk version from the beginning of time. Once they have solved this problem, the tower will crumble and the world will end. It's a good story and, I'm sure, it helped to promote the puzzle, but everyone knows that the world ends at 03:14:07 on Tuesday, January 19, 2038.
A programmed solution can be implemented using recursion in a most elegant way. (Again with the recursion? Just one more to finish up, I swear. I'll start my next post with something completely different.) Here's one way to code up a solution.
void tower(char source, char dest, char temp, int level) { if (level > 0) { tower(source, temp, dest, level-1); printf("Move from %c to %c\n", source, dest); tower(temp, dest, source, level-1); } else printf("Move from %c to %c\n", source, dest); } . . . tower('A', 'C', 'B', numDisks-1); . . .
I've used single characters to denote the pegs (
'A' is the initial source peg,
'C' is the final destination, and
'B' is the temporary peg). The recursion is halted when the
level parameter reaches zero. This corresponds to the
source peg having one disk remaining on it, so the code simply prints the move of a disk from the source to the destination peg without further recursive calls. As you can see, the purpose of the code is to print out the set of instructions that can be mechanically followed by someone trying to solve the puzzle in the fewest moves.

'American Idol' Hopeful Brielle Von Hugel Brings Her Bluesy Side With '(Sittin' On) the Dock of the Bay'
Staten Island's Brielle Von Hugel just might be one of the youngest contestants on 'American Idol' this season (she's only 17), but girl proved tonight that she's got the pipes it takes to become a frontronner in the competition.
Von Hugel, whose overly involved mother has become just as much a part of the season as she is, got low tonight with Otis Redding's bluesy '(Sittin' On) the Dock of the Bay' and pulled some of the best compliments from the judges we've seen all night.
Just before Von Hugel's moment in the spotlight, Jackson commented that the girls were coming out "scorching" tonight, so the stakes were dream-crushingly high. Starting out her song literally sitting in front of a picture of a dock but among a bunch of boys on the stage, the confident, sassy young talent shot out of the cannon with a sultry self-assured performance.
Even when the notes were a bit too low for her feminine voice to nail, this girl knows how to command the stage. She spent about half her time at the edge of the stage reaching out to touch the fingers of her adoring audience like the most seasoned celeb. Sometimes that ease resulted in some awkward faces from the 'Idol' hopeful, but hey, she's learning.
After her performance, Steven Tyler was the first to chime in with "Brielle, you did it! You got a great sense of the blues … That was beautiful." Next, Jennifer Lopez suggested that Von Hugel might be one of the most underrated performers in the competition when it comes to a powerful voice.
"What I love about you is that you are a true performer," Lopez gushed. "You come out there and you eat it up."
Randy Jackson wasn't quite as over-the-top in his praise at first, saying he and Lopez were questioning the song choice at the beginning because of how low it was. But then Jackson offered up one of the most enthusiastic things we've heard him say all night:
"Man, I was like yo. That's Brielle!" he said. "That's why she's here — because we love her." Jackson went on to compare Von Hugel to Janice Joplin, and the young hopeful seemed more than content with the resounding approval. If America agrees, this girl will be a strong, and bold, contender for the Top 10.

I have mentioned before that my husband's family hails from down south our little archipelago. From a lovely city called Zamboanga to be exact. I've been there twice before, the first time carrying with it the particularly happy memory of getting engaged. It is a place not often visited by the average local tourist, who you will most often find in one of the idyllic beaches in the Visayas region (the middle portion of our islands). But Zamboaga City holds many charms for those who venture onto her doorstep.
Zamboanga City is sassy jewel cozily ensconced between sea and mountain, which in my book is the most enviable position for a city to be in. It has a pristine island off its coast whose shore is the palest pink. Remnants of Spanish rule cling sultrily at every corner. More than any place that I have visited in the Philippines, it is really Zamboanga that has the atmosphere of an old colonial stronghold. You can feel it in the air, taste it in the cuisine, and hear it in the language – a Spanish-Filipino patios called Chavacano.
And it is home to curacha, a deep water crab particular to the region. Its bright red-orange shell (which remains the same whether live or cooked) and large, slightly hairy body may look a tad monstrous to some, but all I see is the moist, sweet meat within.
Chili Curacha Pasta
- 250-300 grams linguine
- Olive oil
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 5-6 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 400-gram can chopped tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (more or less depending on how spicy you like it)
- 250 grams curacha meat (or any crab meat)
- 100 ml heavy cream
- Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- Optional: greens for garnish – I used wild rocket but I think basil would work well too.
– Cook the linguine as per package instructions (don't forget to salt the pasta water!). Save some of the pasta water.
– While the pasta is cooking, heat a couple of generous glugs of olive oil in a pan.
– When the oil is hot add the onions and garlic and sauté until the onions are soft and translucent.
– Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, and chili flakes, and stir. Let this cook for about 10-15 minutes, until some of the liquid has evaporated and the tomatoes are thick and pulpy. Add a couple of swirls of olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, and let this cook a couple minutes more.
– Add the crab meat and stir. Cook this for another 5 minutes or so until the meat heats through and the flavors meld. Taste and adjust seasoning. If that sauce looks like it's drying out add some pasta water.
– Add the cream and stir. Cook for a minute or so and adjust seasoning on final time.
– Toss with the cooked pasta noodles, adding the sauce a little at a time. You may have some sauce leftover. Alternately you can serve the noodles and sauce separately.
Unlike most crabs, whose best meat is in its claws, the curacha's meat is concentrated in its body. I still remember the first time I tried one and it seemed like every time I hungrily poked my fingers into its body more and more meat came out. The meat itself is sweet and soft and absolutely delicious.
I still have some of the picked curacha meat in the freezer and I am just itching to use it. Any suggestions? 🙂

The party appealing, his agent or attorney, shall within ten days from the date of judgment, or order overruling motion for new trial, file with the justice a bond, with two or more good and sufficient sureties, to be approved by the justice, in double the amount of the judgment, payable to the appellee, conditioned that appellant shall prosecute his appeal to effect, and shall payoff and satisfy the judgment which may be rendered against him on appeal. When such bond has been filed with the justice, the appeal shall be held to be thereby perfected and all parties to said suit or to any suit so appealed shall make their appearance at the next term of court to which said case has been appealed. Within five (5) days following the filing of such appeal bond, the party appealing shall give notice as provided in Rule 21a or 21b of the filing of such bond to all parties to the suit who have not filed such bond. No judgment shall be taken by default against any party in the court to which the cause has been appealed without first showing that this rule has been complied with.

(No. 103) Question: "Rule 751, one of the special rules for forcible detainer cases, does not set any appearance day but gives the case precedence on the County Court docket. Does not Rule 571 make appearance day as to such cases the first day of the next term of county court in the event of appeal from the justice of the county court?
Answer: Yes. See opinions of this subcommittee, 5 Tex. B.J. 53 (3 rd opinion) and 168 (No. 21) We beg, however, to call to your attention the fact that this rule is reversed by the amendment to Rule 753 which will come into effect at the end of the present year (1943). That amendment reads, "Said cause shall be subject to trial at any time after the expiration of five full days after the day the transcript is filed in the county court, and if defendant shall fail to enter his appearance therein before the case is called for trial, the allegations of the complainant may be taken as admitted, and judgment by default may be entered accordingly."
6 Tex. B.J. 500 (1943) reprinted in 8 Tex. B.J. 37 (1945).
(No. 119) Question: In a case tried in the justice court, the losing party filed an appeal bond, approved by the justice of the peace, which was regular in manner and form and conditioned as required by law. It recited, however, that the appeal had been taken to the county court. The civil jurisdiction of the county court had been abolished and the appeal lay to the district court, to which the transcript was sent by the justice of the peace and there filed in due time. Appellee filed a motion to dismiss the appeal on the ground that the district court had no jurisdiction because it appeared from the recitals in the appeal bond that the appeal had been taken to the county court. Appellant, invoking Rule 571, moved the court to allow him five days within which to prepare and file an amended appeal bond to correct the error in the original bond. Should the appeal be dismissed or should the appellant be allowed five days within which to file an amended bond?
Answer: We are of the opinion that appellant should be allowed five days within which to file an amended bond. Under Rule 571 the appeal was perfected by filing the bond with the justice of the peace. The transcript an appeal was lodged in due time in the court which had jurisdiction of the appeal. All parties to the suit were aware of this fact. They were required by the rule to make their appearance at the next term of the court "without further notice." The appellee did in fact make his appearance in due time in the court which actually had jurisdiction of the appeal. He was, therefore, not surprised nor had he sustained any injury by reason of the defect and irregularity in the bond which was manifestly due to a clerical error and it probably resulted from the use of a printed form.
The rules of civil procedure, in their general scope, manifest the clear intent of the Supreme Court that appeals shall not be dismissed for clerical errors or for defects in mere form or substance when they can be cured by amendment, particularly where no injury results to the adverse party. Rule 481 relating to the Supreme Court provides that the application, or brief of the argument in support thereof, or reply thereto may be amended at any time when justice requires and specifically provides that the record and the appeal bond may be amended in the Supreme Court precisely as the same could be done in the Court of Civil Appeals under Rules 428, 429, 430 and 431. These rules established a new and wholesome procedure. They were adapted to prevent injustice and the denial of the substantive rights of parties which had often theretofore resulted from undue subservience to mere legal form.
We are also of the opinion that the matter is not jurisdictional. It has been held that an informal or defective bond not objected to may confer jurisdiction. Tynberg v. Cohen, 67 Tex. 220, 2 S.W. 734 (1887); Southern Pac. Co. v. Staley, 76 Tex. 418, 13 S.W. 480 (1890); Ricker v. Collins, 81 Tex. 662, 17 S.W. 378 (1891). Irregularities in a bond are waived by an appearance and amendment of pleadings and delay in making a motion to dismiss and such defects may be waived by continuance by consent. Cason v. Laney, 82 Tex. 317, 18 S.W. 667 (1891); Casan v. Westfall, 83 Tex. 26, 18 S.W. 668 (1892); Futch v. Palmer, 11 Tex.Civ.App. 191, 32 S.W. 566 (1895). There is no sound reason why, in the circumstances stated, the appellant should not be allowed time within which to file an amended bond and we think Rule 571 requires that it be done.

- UFC on FX 5
Bigfoot Silva plans early stoppage against Browne
Antonio Bigfoot Silva admits he is not even preparing to go five rounds this weekend, insisting he will stop Travis Browne inside two.
Silva is hoping to bounce back after he was given a beating by Cain Velasquez in his last outing. That loss saw Bigfoot bloodied early in the fight, after which he could not see as the ref eventually stepped in.
Now the giant heavyweight has the chance to re-establish his position inside the UFC's top 10 by beating Browne, although it is feared that Browne will be the fitter and more athletic if the fight goes the full 25 minutes.
That isn't a concern of Silva's though, who claims he will ground-and-pound his way to victory on Saturday. The fight is the headline event in Minnesota, and Silva is pumped.
"This is a very important fight for me, and I won't let it go past the second round," Browne said. "It is a five-round fight but, five rounds or three rounds, I don't like decisions on my record.
"I will do my best to finish Travis Browne inside two rounds. He's the second or third person I've fought who is bigger than me, but it does not matter, it is no problem.
"I know I can take him down to the ground and ground-and-pound him - for sure that is where I am very dangerous. But I have been training very, very hard on my standup. He is a very tough guy, undefeated, but I am so, so confident I will beat him inside two rounds."

"We are Malayalis in disguise "
"All the Roads lead To the Dance Bar "
"We Think Pramod Muthalik is Gay"
"It's Raining Coconuts Here"
"Ha Ha Ha Ha"
Tulu Nadu is the name giving to the region in coastal karnataka,India(north of kerala) from kundapura to kasargod where disguised malayalis live.These disguised malayalis call themselves Tuluva just for time pass because the hate the the word Mallu and prefer the word Tulu.They are highly educated and have lots of money which they made selling liquor and masala dosa and by acting in bollywood films.but these people are generally lazy and therefore they are still part of the karnataka state where a useless race of people called kannadigas also live,Though some tuluvas have giving up their laziness and want separation from karnataka because they can't bear the stink coming from kannadigas who live in other parts of karnataka.Also the fact some peopel mistake tulu people as kannadigas because they live in the same state has incensed them even further.
Tuluva people believe that their land of Tulu nadu was craeted when an axe throwing cometitipon was held in MT.Kailash By Shiva and Parshurama ,one of the participant threw threw his axe in the southern direction instead of north and this axe landed near the arabian see and a land of tulu nadu and kerala were created(No further explanation is provided).After the land was created stupid snake people called the bunts and shivalli brahmins came to this place from alien country of achichatra and populated the region.their progeny also went to kerala which started a population explosion there.these snake people in kerala are known as nairs and namboodiri.Gradually other people also inhabited this place like the professional murderers the beary muslims.There were also other groups who came to the region like the scuba divers billavas and mosquito catchers like mogaveeras.recently migrated groups include the brothel owners mangalorean catholics as also very misrely gowda sarasawat brahmins.
Physics Of Literacy[edit]
People here are 100 percent literate and generally show their literacy by writing on windoww panes of buses cars as also the walls of their houses.People here have knowledge of lot of scripts like tulu script,kannada script, roman script etc.This knowing of diferent script means that the writing is done using the alternative script theory which is that one word in a sentence is written using tulu script,the other by kannada and the third by roman.This has created the world's most unique writing techinique.Infact the people of tulu nadu were given the Nobel Price for Physics for invention of this Theory.Even Barack Obama has congratulated the people of Tulu Nadu by saying I am not the only person who did not deserve the Nobel Price.
People & Culture[edit]
People in this part are generally of Saffron in colour.This is due to the excessive influence of Hinduism on the people here.Though some scientist disagree this theory by stating That Tulu people have saffron colour because they are a cross between aliens and the Communist Keralaites who are red in colour.People here have fertility rate and therefore the excess population in the region have migrated to other places in the world like Bombay Arab countries etc.For every 10 Malayali in the world there are five people of Tulu Nadu.Tulu Nadu people are also very friendly so friendly that they will not hesistate to use your belongings like your bank account,your house your toilet and perhaps even your bedrrom.People here have great sense of humour,so humorous these people are that if two people are seen having a fight then the Tulu Nad people will stand around them state laughing as if they are some jesters.Tulu Nadu people are also very cultured.Infact so virtuous are these people that they don't mind beating other people just for the sake of fun.Infact kickboxing the Kannadiga people is a major traditon among the tulu nadu people.
Flora and Fauna[edit]
The cockroach is the official animal of the region.Killing this animal is prohibited and punishable by law.A chinese tourist was recently given the death sentence for killing the cockroach and eating it thinking this was a delicacy.The Jugde while sentencing the tourist named Chin ping ling said that this should serve as a reminder to all those people who try to kill this beautiful animal species which is going to inherit the earth after all human beings are going to be killed in nuclear war being started by Muslims.PETA hailed the decision calling it the victory of animals over human beings.Apart from the cockroach other animal species protected in Tulu Nadu are the blood sucking vampires.The horny Gazelles as well as cannibalistic creatures belonging to the Jesus Christ species of animals.The Aerosmith is the national bird of tulu nadu.
Language Policy[edit]
Tulu is the offical langauge in the region though it spoken and understood by all people,The people here try to show off their fluency in English.Infact if a foreigner speaks to person here in Tulu.The people here will always give a reply in english.because of the myth among the people here that all foreigners are english which includes the Chinese,Japanese as well as Africans.Other languages spoken here include Latin,but not Pig latin.Pig latin along with Canada/Language is considered to be the language of Homosexuals.So it is a advise not to speak these languages here if you do not want to be classified as one.For people who want to ascertain their Homosexual identity please speak these languages.no harm will be caused to homosexuals are people here not not Homophobes,But detest people who kill Cockroaches.
organisational skills[edit]
Unlike their neighbouring state of Kerala,People in Tulu Nadu have a number of organisation which look after different affairs some major organisations are as follows.
- Tulu Nadu People's Party - This party was originally formed to contest election by human beings but today most of it's members are Dogs and semi human beings like Michael Jackson.Among it's canine members are Osama Bin Laden.
- Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh(Tulu Nadu)- This is the Tulu Nadu branch of the pan indian RSS.It is an organisation made up of old people with high libido.Members of this organisation are known to be horny and especially male members are eager to hump anything that they get including Michelle Obama.
- Bunt Sangha-This is the organisation of a race of people called bunts (the same people are called nairs in neighbouring kerala).these people generally think of themsleves as too smart and too good looking.They believe they deserve to be rulers of the world.The main motto of the organisation is to the rule the world,the organisation is making vigorous plans about ways to capture the world.For this there are in talks with Chinese and North Korean leaders who have similar ideology.
- Tulu Brahmin Association:They are basically a group of greedy people who will do anthing for money.They are involved in Mafia gangs and Extortion rackets.
- Billava Sangha -This is basically a association of scuba divers who were also involved in the toddy trade.Nowadays they have diversified into begging and known to the the only group of professional beggars.The Film Slumdog millionaire was based on them
- Mangalorean Catholic Association - This is basically a asscociation of Pimps and Whores who have formed the organisation with the main objective of expanding the sex trade.their senior leader lives in the Vatican City and goes by the name of Pope which basically means the main pimp.they use the konakni language for in group communication and where orinally from Goa.
People in tulu nadu are very industrious.they have set up not just industries here but also in the gulf countries of arabia.The Major industry here is of course migration industry.Half of Tulu Nadu's people have migrated to Gulf countries due to the growth of this industry.the other half was also involved in planning to migrate but they supposedly are now invovled in the population growth industry.The growth of this industry is seen in the fact that along with the neighbouring state of kerala Tulu nadu has the highest density of population per sq km. in India.Other Major industries here include Running Down people industry as well the Liquor Bar industry.The Running down people industry mainly employs the Public Bus Drivers.Infact these people as such excellent drivers that at least 15 people are run down in one ride of the Kundapura to Kasaragod Express Bus,While 10 passengers generally die of heart attack after having a ride on the bus.The Liquor Bar industry is also relatively booming.Any Given Time of the Year Half of the people are either drunk here or dead
The Official Sport of The region is Coconut Shot Put where one aims to throw the coconut as far as possible.One gets bonus points if you hit somebody's head while throwing it as far as possible.Tulu Nadu people are world champions and world beaters in this sport because no one else plays it.Other sporting activities here include Chasing the monkeys away From you Coconut and banana plantaions.The sport is played between the monkeys and the Tulu people,and the monkeys always seem to win the game no matter how hard the tulu people try.Like the whole of india which is cricket crazy Tulu Nadu people are also admirers of the sport but they only watch it on Tv and never play it,Other sports here include Buffalo racing elephant racing,running away with ones' neighbour's wife etc.
The Major festival here is the Saffron Parade where all members of the Saffron association of the the B.J.P,Sangh Parivar and the R.S.S.(they were khakhi shorts and not saffron for a change) take out a march any given time of the year and celebrate the festival by beating up any given muslim on the road and abuse hime.Infact they don't even spare the Christian priests who are generally very nice and harmless souls who basically like shagging in the confession box.Unlike other festivals in the world the saffron parade can take place any given time of the year.The time for it's observation is not known to the general public.it depends on the leaders of the saffron association.If they say today is saffron parade then people should observe it by beating up a muslim or a christian priest.
The economy here is of mixed type that is people will not pay for anything they want to buy.But will charge double the money for anything they sell.thus the people here have made a lot of money.Major exports from here include human beings rice coconut and hot bollywood chicks.People here don't pay for any imports i.e they lietrally steal.

Hello List,
I received an attachment the other day in Eudora Mail, titled CAS F 16.wmv. It open ok with Windows Media Player in Eudora, but when I forwarded it to myself, to open in Poco Mail, Windows Media Player would not reconize the .wmv extension. Would that have something to do with Poco or something else?

Baseball Walks Off with Series Sweep, 5-4
BATON ROUGE -- Third baseman Tyler Hanover delivered a game-winning double in the bottom of the ninth inning Sunday to propel No. 13 LSU to a 5-4 victory and a three-game sweep over Dartmouth in Alex Box Stadium.
The Tigers extended their winning streak to five and completed a perfect 5-0 week. LSU defeated Dartmouth 8-4 and 16-3 in the first two games of the series over the weekend. Dartmouth, which opened its 2012 season on Friday, fell to 0-3 with Sunday's loss.
LSU returns to action on Tuesday as the Tigers travel to New Orleans to take on instate rival Tulane at 6:30 p.m. in Turchin Stadium.
The game was tied 4-4 in the bottom of the ninth inning when LSU shortstop Austin Nola delivered a two-out single against Dartmouth reliever Thomas Olson (0-1). Hanover followed with a fly ball into right-center field, where Dartmouth centerfielder Jake Carlson, who was battling the sun, had the ball carom off of his glove. Nola scored from first base on the play to give the Tigers the victory.
"I'm glad that we has this type of ball game today, a tight game where our players had to respond in pressure situations," said LSU coach Paul Mainieri. "I thought we executed well at the plate and we made some critical pitches throughout the day. Our run total doesn't reflect it, but we had a lot of very good at-bats with balls that were hit right at their fielders."
Rightfielder Raph Rhymes paced LSU with four hits and two RBI. Nola produced a career-high four hits and scored the game-winning run.
Reliever Chris Cotton (1-0) picked up the victory in relief after coming into the game in the top of the eighth inning and recording four outs. Starter Kurt McCune allowed two runs (two earned) on four hits, four walks and struck out four in 4.2 innings.
Olson gave up two runs (two earned) on four hits and two walks in 3.2 innings. LSU scored three runs on Dartmouth starter Michael Johnson with seven hits in the first four innings of the game.
LSU struck first in the bottom of the opening frame. Second baseman JaCoby Jones reached base on a single to left and reached second on a wild pitch before being caught stealing at third. First baseman Mason Katz tattooed a two-out double to right center.
Rhymes plated Katz on a hard hit single through the left side of the infield.
The Tigers extended the lead in the bottom of the third inning. Jones cracked a leadoff double into the left-center gap and moved to third on Katz's ground out to the right side. With the defense playing in, Rhymes pushed a single up the middle for his second RBI single of the contest.
Nola slapped a single into left center and Rhymes moved to third. Hanover placed a perfect sacrifice bunt that allowed Rhymes to score.
Dartmouth cut into the lead in the top of the fifth. After a leadoff walk to Jeff Keller and a single to left by Nick Lombardi, McCune struck out David Turnbull, but Matt Robinson knocked an RBI single up the middle.
McCune forced Joe Sclafani to pop out to center field, but second baseman Thomas Roulis placed a double into right center, scoring Lombardi from second and moving Robinson to third.
Right-hander Joe Broussard entered the game for LSU in relief of McCune with two in scoring position and two outs. He struck out Chris O'Dowd to minimize the damage.
Dartmouth knotted the game at 3-3 in the top of the sixth. Keller reached base on a two-out single and scored on Lombardi's RBI single to left.
Dartmouth captured the lead in the top of the seventh. Robinson led off the inning with a single up the middle and moved to second on a wild pitch. Sclafani's groundout advanced Robinson to third.
Left-hander Cody Glenn replaced Broussard, but Roulis greeted him with an RBI single to right that plated Robinson. Roulis stole second and Dustin Selzer was intentionally walked to set up a lefty-lefty matchup with DH Ennis Coble. A wild pitch moved both runners into scoring position before Glenn forced Coble to ground out to end the threat.
Rhymes dropped in a bloop double between the first baseman and right field to start a rally for LSU in the seventh. Rhymes moved to third on a wild pitch and Nola plated Rhymes on an infield single.
After entering the game in the top of the eighth with two outs and allowing a single, Cotton retired four straight, including all three in the top of the ninth.
LSU 5, Dartmouth 4 (Mar 04, 2012 at Baton Rouge, La.)

Tufts University Sports Information
MEDFORD, Mass. - Valerie Krah scored nine of her 11 points in the first half as Tufts took a 42-15 halftime lead on its way to a 69-47 victory against neighboring rival MIT in women's basketball play at Cousens Gym on Thursday night.
The victory was the third straight for the Jumbos, who improved to 11-8 overall. The Engineers lost their 11th in a row and dropped to 3-14. Tufts' Allison Love scored a game-high 13 points, making 6-of-9 shots. Karen Kinnaman and Cherelle Walls both scored 10 points to pace Tech.
Tufts led by 23 points just 12 minutes into the game when Taryn Miller-Stevens scored on a lay-up for a 27-4 advantage. The Jumbos extended the margin to 28 points (40-12) on a jumper by Laura Jasinski with 1:43 remaining in the first half.
MIT emerged from the break like a new team. The Engineers scored more points in the first eight minutes of the second stanza than they did in the entire first half, cutting the Tufts lead to 51-32 on a jumper by Sharon Prange. Twice more the visitors got as close as 19 points, but Tufts cruised to the win on the legs of its first-half performance. MIT outscored the Jumbos, 32-27, in the second half.
Tech posted a 20-11 advantage in rebounds for the second frame. Kinnaman added six boards and three assists to her game. Walls grabbed a game-high seven rebounds while Prange finished with eight points and five caroms. Kimberly Eri Soo Hoo paced the Engineers with four assists and two steals.

Microsoft Fixes Zero-Day Bug in July Patch Tuesday
Microsoft closed the zero-day vulnerability that has been under attack for the past month as part of its monthly Patch Tuesday release.
The company released nine security bulletins addressing 16 vulnerabilities, of which three were rated critical, according to its July Patch Tuesday advisory. The remaining six were rated "important." All three critical patches address issues where a victim could be exploited if they visit malicious Web pages, Marcus Carey, a security researcher at Rapid7, told Security Watch. Two of the important patches fixed bugs which were "primed" for spearing phishing attacks, Carey said.
The zero-day vulnerability in Microsoft Core XML (MS12-043) disclosed in early June was actively being exploited in the wild. The latest security update only fixed the heap overflow issue in MSXML versions 3, 4, and 6. Organizations running version 5, which corresponds to Office 2003 and 2007, should make sure to apply the interim FixIt measures until a future update is available. The other two critical vulnerabilities have not yet been exploited, but Microsoft predicted reliable exploit code may be available within 30 days.
The cumulative security update for Internet Explorer (MS12-044) patched two remote code execution vulnerabilities that only affected Internet Explorer 9. Since earlier versions are not affected, it appears the bugs were introduced with version 9's new code base, Carey said. The other critical bulletin (MS12-045) fixed issues in Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC). The vulnerability could be used to compromise any Web application using MDAC if the user visits a malicious URL, Carey said.
Exploits targeting these vulnerabilities will likely soon appear in poplar crimeware kits, Carey predicted.
If you have a computer configured for multi-character input, such as displaying Asian languages, the bulletin addressing a DLL preloading vulnerability in Visual Basic for Applications (MS12-046) may be of high priority, said Wolfgang Kandek, CTO of Qualys. This remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Office's IMESHARE.dll and has already been targeted in the Far East, according to reports by Huawei.
Another important bulletin fixed an elevation of privilege flaw in Microsoft Office for Mac (MS12-051). "You may not see OSX application vulnerabilities every day, they do in fact exist," Nicholas Percoco, senior vice-president of Trustwave Spider Labs, told Security Watch. To exploit the vulnerability, attackers need to get a specially crafted application into the Microsoft office folder on an OSX machine and then convince a different user to execute it, Percoco said.
The rest of the bulletins are important, and should be deployed according to normal testing and patching procedures, experts recommended.
