Both grapeseed and olive oil are very healthy choices. Grapeseed oil has a higher smokepoint and no discernable flavor–two features that make it versatile for cooking. However, grapeseed oil is not as widely available, and is often more costly than olive oil.

Re-engineered to include a heart rate monitor, the Garmin Forerunner 620 will ensure that you get the most out of your runs. With just a touch, tap or swipe you can get started on your run whilst the Forerunner 620 accurately tracks your distance, pace, GPS position, heart rate, calories and more. Plus if you get lost, it can even guide you back to the starting point of your run, giving you freedom to explore new routes without the fear. Highly functional, the sleek touchscreen robustly stands up to rain, sweat and splashes but is sensitive enough to operate through running gloves. The sports watch is GPS enabled, stores memory of the last 1000 laps recorded, has an auto pause and auto laps feature and also allows for advanced workouts. Advanced features include Virtual Partner, a training tool that allows to race against digital opponents. A gentle vibration alert will let you know when youve reached your targets. You can also wirelessly upload your run data to the Garmin Connect site when in range of your computer so you can review your progress in your own time. Garmin Connect is Mac and PC compatible. Meanwhile, the all-new integrated heart rate monitor uses in-depth data to learn your physiology in order to assess your effort level and suggest time off before you can start your next workout. This data is also used to estimate your VO max, which is an indicator of your athletic capability. This is then compared with the data from other runners of your gender and age group, predicting potential race times for a range of distances. Finally, the HRM also calculates your cadence, vertical oscillation, ground contact time and torso movement as you run.

Brewmeister's Armageddon, World's Strongest Beer at 130 Proof, To Launch Thanksgiving
There appears to be a new record-setter for beer. A team of microbrewers in Scotland at Brewmeister Brewery has made what could now be considered the world's strongest beer weighing in at a whopping 65 percent alcohol by volume, or 130 proof.
The beer is called Brewmeister's Armageddon and is set to be revealed at the Inverness Beer Festival on November 3. Although the record has yet to be confirmed by Guinness World Records. The beer is set for worldwide launch on Thanksgiving day.
The current reigning champion is BrewDog brewery in Scotland, which makes a 55 percent ABV beer called The End of History. Sam Adams brews Utopias, a 26 percent ABV beer.
Brewmeister's Armageddon is made with crystal malt, wheat, flaked oats and spring water. The extremely high alcohol content is achieved by freezing the beer, then removing the ice that subsequently forms, leaving the alcohol because alcohol does not freeze along with water.
"The beer has a viscous quality to it, due to the special freeze fermentation method we use to produce such a high alcoholic beer," says Brewmeister brewer Jon MacKenzie.
MacKenzie runs Brewmeister, which is located on the estate of Kincardine Castle about 25 miles outside of Aberdeen, Scotland. He, along with a few friends and fellow brewers, started Brewmeister in the summer of 2011 after becoming inspired from a road trip to western Scotland.
The beer will retail at the festival next month for £5 (roughly $8) for a 35-milliliter serving size, or 1.18 fluid ounces, and is meant to be sipped like brandy. But if you had the stacks to drop on a few bottles, you could chug those sum'bitches. Brewmeister ships all over the world and Christmas is coming, think about getting a bottle for a beer snob.
Brewmeister makes two other flavors: Ten and Blonde, both of which sit at 10.1 percent and 4 percent ABV, respectively.

sxs, fridge 60 degrees crispers, room temp above, freezer 32 lower, room temp upper
Model Number: 106 9432480 Brand: Kenmore Age: More than 10 years
Hi 3 days ago, I opened the fridge door, after a few seconds, light went off, normal humming sound from back of unit stopped. Checked bulb, it's good. Reinstalled bulb, pressed light switch in/out/in, nothing. Fiddled with temp. and air dials, no clicks, no nothing. Jiggled unit, lights/humming came ON. After a few seconds, lights/humming OFF. Opened freezer door, lights/humming came ON, after a few seconds, lights/humming OFF. Jiggled unit again, both lights/humming came ON briefly, then both OFF. No lights/humming since. Later, noticed both fridge and freezer were slowly warming. Pulled bottom cover from back of unit. Fan on right is blowing room-temp air out, compressor on left is warm to touch, not hot, and doesn't vibrate. All of the 4 copper tubes to/from comp.are near room temp. Whole area including bottom coils are relatively clean. No water in drain pan, looks like no water in it recently. Currently, interior of fridge is near room-temp above, drawers below are cool (50-60 degrees). Interior of freezer is near room-temp above, almost freezing below (ice cubes slushy). No condensation anywhere. One more thing, when I turn temp. dial OFF, just before "off" I hear a very faint click and then the fridge light comes ON - about half as bright as normal. Removed starter relay. Number on the PTC is 2 1 5 4 4 3 6. Compressor motor passed the continuity test. When I shake it, the relay sounds faintly like one large part is moving inside. I wouldn't say it rattles. I have to shake the piece vigorously to hear anything moving inside. Relay does not smell or look burned. All the connections are clean brass. No grime or corrosion. Any way to test the solid-state relay for sure? Like wire it in series with a light bulb. Shouldn't the bulb flicker momentarily if the relay is good? Any way to test the compressor for sure? if all the relay is doing is shorting across the capacitor, can't I loosen the capacitor terminals and carefully short across them for a moment with an insulated-handle probe to start the compressor? If it doesn't start, I'll know the problem is the compressor, correct? If it does start, I'll KNOW the problem is the relay, correct? Or... could it be the capacitor? Could a bad capacitor produce the problem? Do capacitors fail, often, rarely, never? Any way to test the capacitor? Where from here? Related Models |

, then you can still install manually from the command-line. See http://foswiki.org/Support/ManuallyInstallingExtensions for more help.
are actually handled by
the /foswiki/bin/virtualhosts
CGI script. Such script will play the role of
all the other scripts, but before serving each request it will setup the
appropriate environment for the virtual host being used.
script is a regular CGI script, and as such it may exhibit
poor performance in sites with low computing power or high usage, just like
regular Foswiki. VirtualHostingContrib provides a FastCGI version of the
To use it:
script provided by FastCGIEngineContrib with virtualhosts.fcgi
provided by VirtualHostingContrib.
Setting | Meaning | Default value |
VirtualHostsDir |
The directory in which you virtual hosts are stored | $Foswiki::cfg{DataDir}/../virtualhosts |
ServerAlias |
a mapping of aliases to real hostnames | |
DisabledServers |
a list of servers that are disabled temporarily even though there's a valid environment present in VirtualHostsDir |
, named after the
hostname it is intended to serve. Take the following example:
virtualhosts/ example.com/ ... mydomain.net/ ...In this case, there are two virtual hosts, one for the
domain and
other for the mydomain.net
Inside each virtual host directory, there are some directories that resemble
the ones in the main Foswiki installation:
Directory | Stores |
data/ |
topic data |
pub/ |
attachments and other files that must be directly accessible by clients |
templates/ |
custom templates for this virtual host only |
working/ |
all sorts of temporary data |
, which may contain Foswiki configuration variables. This way
you can have different settings for different virtual hosts. For example, you
can have some virtual hosts using the standard .htpasswd Foswiki user
management, and others using LDAP to authenticate users.
To create your local configuration, just create a file called VirtualHost.cfg
inside the virtual host directory. Inside the file, you use the $VirtualHost
hash the same way you would use $Foswiki::cfg
in the global Foswiki
# disable FooPlugin in this virtual host $VirtualHost{Plugins}{FooPlugin}{Enabled} = 0; # use LDAP contrib in this virtual host $VirtualHost{PasswordManager} = 'Foswiki::Users::LdapPasswdUser'; $VirtualHost{UserMappingManager} = 'Foswiki::Users::LdapUserMapping'; # ...Note that all occurrances of
in the virtual host
configuration will be replaced by $VirtualHost
. This way you can
still copy and paste configuration examples into your virtual host
configuration, but the virtual host configuration won't affect the global
configuration. A side effect of this is that you cannot do smart things such
$Foswiki::cfg{AuthScripts} .= ',view';Warning: just like Foswiki's global configuration file
, virtual host configuration files are executed as Perl code.
So the system administrator must be completely sure of what to put in that
configuration file.
. To create a virtual host for the example.com
domain, you should run it like that:
$ ./tools/virtualhosts-create.sh example.comIf you run this script as a user different from the one that runs the Foswiki code (e.g. you create the virtualhost as
but your web server runs as
or nobody
), the data/
and pub/
directories will be their
ownership properly set to the correct user (i.e. www-data
or nobody
If you have a special virtual host called _template
, then it will be copied
over to the new virtual host. If there is no _template
virtual host, the
script will create the virtual host by copying files from the main Foswiki
data; this is indicated if your installation contains only virtual hosts, so
the main Foswiki data will always be clean. You can also create a _template
virtual host manually by copying the files from a Foswiki release tarball,
or by manually creating the data you want for every newly created virtual hosts. If
your installation is brand new and you plan to use the main Foswiki data
afterwards, you can also create the _template
virtual host using the script,
and that will freeze a copy of the main Foswiki data for new virtual hosts
created later.
If you have a text file called _template.conf
in your virtual hosts
directory, when you create a virtual host for example.com you'll also get a
file which is just equal to the _template.conf
except that all occurrences of %VIRTUALHOST%
will be replaced by the
virtual host name (example.com
in this example). Note that
VirtualHostingContrib does not care about the contents of the file, it just
takes the content of _template.conf
, replaces all occurrences of
%VIRTUALHOST% by the virtual host name, and that's it.
To disable a virtual host, add it to the list of DisabledServers
. This
is a comma-separated list of those hosts that are temporarily inactive and won't
be served anymore until you either remove it from the DisabledServers
list again or remove the files of the virtual host permanently.
To remove a virtual host, just remove the its files. If you are removing the
virtual host for example.com
, and your virtual hosts are stored in
/var/lib/foswiki/virtualhosts (see #Settings), then it is enough to remove
the /var/lib/foswiki/virtualhosts/example.com
directory, plus any webserver
configuration you have for that virtual host. Your mileage may vary.
To rename a virtual host, you just have to rename it's directory, and if it's
the case, change the configuration files accordingly. Beware that after
renaming a virtual host its data will no longer be available at the old
domain name.
To create an alias name for a virtual host, add a name mapping to the
hash of your global configuration in LocalSite.cfg
. For
instance use the following to access the example.com
domain using the
a different network interface as well:
$Foswiki::cfg{VirtualHostingContrib}{ServerAlias} = { '127.0.0.1' => 'example.com',Note that you also need to configure your http server to listen to the alias name to make use of this feature. Warning: in most cases where both domains, the canonical domain and the alias one, are reachable on the same network interface it is preferable to use a http redirect from one domain to the other instead of creating another domain that basically serves the same content. Also, SSL certificates appear to be invalid when served from the wrong domain. Don't use server aliases for in that case. Using a server alias does make sense when the same domain isn't reachable on a second network interface from where you'll only be able to reach the server using the alias name. This might also be the case when maintaining the site on a different server offline and syncing content later on to the machine that is able to serve the canonical domain.
subdirectory of your Foswiki installation
and can be called from the commandline. They all understand the usual parameters
that their non-vhost-aware counterparts have. In addition, they all take an
optional host
parameter that lets you specify on which virtual host to run
the command. When no host parameter is specified, the command will be run on
all known virtual hosts known.
For example, to run a REST handler check
implemented by a MyNewPlugin extension, use
cd tools ./virtualhosts-rest host=example.com /MyNewPlugin/check topic=Main.WebHome option=foo(TODO: virtualhosts-mailnotify doe not yet understand
and PubDir
(the directories where topic text and attachments are
stored, respectively).
The Foswiki configuration is loaded during compilation time, but when using
persistent execution models (e.g. ModPerl, FastCGI), the Foswiki Perl code is
compiled only once for multiple requests. This wat, the needed configuration
tweaking must be done once for each request, and moreover must not not leave
any trail for the next request, which will possibly be handlind a different
virtual host (and thus different settings for DataDir
, PubDir
, etc.).
We need something like this:
+-----------------+ | | +----------+ Foswiki startup + | | | | +-----------------+ | Main | configuration | loaded | | Configuration cleaned | +---------------------------------+ | | | | V | +------------------+ +---------+---------+ | | | | | Incoming Request + | Outgoing Response + | | | | +--------+---------+ +-------------------+ | ^ | Configuration ajusted | | for current virtual host | | | | | | +--------------------+ | | | | | +---->| Request processing +------+ | (conf. loaded) | +--------------------+Since all Foswiki-specific processing happens inside the "Request processing" box, then if we manage to tweak the configuration before it is run and to restore it after the request is processed, we are all set. For that, we hook in the Foswiki engines system.
is the engine object):
1 | A Request object is prepared, | $req = $self->prepare() |
2 | The processing is delegated to the Foswiki::UI module. This module detects what was the called script (view, edit, attach etc.), instantiates a Foswiki session and does all of the actual processing to produce a result for the client. In special, this phase is the only one in which the vast majority of the Foswiki configuration matters. |
$res = Foswiki::UI::handleRequest($req) |
3 | The engine does a cleanup and sends the response back to the client | $self->finalize($req, $req) |
, and restore the configuration just after it
construct local()
construct enables the programmer to set a global variable
until the end of the current block. After the current block exits, the value is
restored to its original value. This can be also used with hash elements: in
this case, only the elements changed with local
are restored when the scope
use Foswiki; # Assume that DataDir is set initially to "/path/to/foswiki/data" print $Foswiki::cfg{DataDir}, "\n" { local = $Foswiki::cfg{DataDir} = "/path/to/virtualhosts/example.com/data"; print $Foswiki::cfg{DataDir}, "\n"; } print $Foswiki::cfg{DataDir}, "\n"The above example will print the following:
/path/to/foswiki/data /path/to/virtualhosts/example.com/data /path/to/foswiki/dataThis way we can override the settings we need, and also gain the cleanup step for free since Perl will automatically revert all changes done with local when the block ends. For more information on
, please refer to "Temporary Values via
local()" in the perlsub(1) manpage (you must have Perl's documentation
installed in your system).
use vars qw($RE); BEGIN { $RE = qr/$Foswiki::cfg{SomeOption}/; }If this code runs under ModPerl, FastCGI or other persistent engine, Then the
variable will be initialized in the first time that code is
loaded, and that may be in the context of a specific virtual host. In a future
request, $RE will still contain a value derived from the value of
for the original virtualhost, even if
the current virtualhost redefines $Foswiki::cfg{SomeOption}
To fix this, you should avoid initializing values that depend on the
configuration during compile-time. Instead, compose the values you need during
sub do_stuff { my $RE = qr/$Foswiki::cfg{SomeOption}/; // use $RE here ... }or in a OO context:
sub new { // ... $this->{RE} = qr/$Foswiki::cfg{SomeOption}/; // ... } sub method { my $this = shift; // use $this->{RE} ... }
will be expanded only in the first time
the expression is evaluated:
my $RE = qr/$Foswiki::cfg{SomeOption}/o;Even is a virtualhost redefined
, the
value used in that regular expression will be the value defined in the context
of the virtualhost that was being processed during the first time that
expression was evaluated.
So, avoid the 'o' flag when interpolating configuration values in regular
expressions. The following real code shows the problem:
use vars qw($GLOBAL); $GLOBAL = 'Main'; sub f { my $re = qr/(?:$GLOBAL\.)/o; print $re, "\n"; } f(); $GLOBAL = 'Users'; f();The two calls to f() will print the same value, based on the value
has in the first time the regular expression was
$ perl test.pl (?-xism:(?:Main\.)) (?-xism:(?:Main\.))If you remove the 'o' flag from the regular expresion, you will obtain the desired result:
$ perl test.pl (?-xism:(?:Main\.)) (?-xism:(?:Users\.))

The food campaign closes on May 14th 2013 with US$61,998.43 raised that fed Riverkids' children for the past one year.
In preparation of our upcoming campaign on GlobalGiving, we're interviewing our children and families in Cambodia, looking into nutrition and diet of our children coming for meals at our centres and budgeting. We're working with a volunteer in Singapore and photographer in Cambodia to put together a video to show you what we're doing in Cambodia.
We've piloted some programs and are really excited to share with you how a particular program has been working very well to help our families in crisis to cross over to a brighter future. We learn that we can cover this gap with an aid that will see them through a temporary crisis so none will be lost during this crucial period.
Thank you and see you again on GlobalGiving Bonus Day, June 12th 2013.
Because you've been so amazing – today, we are closing our food fundraising campaign on GlobalGiving.
You've helped to fulfill the destiny of nearly 600 children with daily meals at a whopping US$61,308. This is simply astounding.
During the past 11 months, your generosity had done more than just filling the tummies of our children before they head off to school.
They had meals and snacks in the afternoon and our Weekly Boarders had dinner. Our children were able to focus in class, learn more and have a good play break instead of going to bed hungry.
It freed up their parents' income to pay for utilities, rental, medical and emergency needs. They were able to forgo a little income to attend our skills training for a sustainable livelihood because someone, you, made it a point to feed their children.
We were able to give cash to a group of families to buy rice, extra eggs, fish sauce and noodles. These are people in our programs whom we've identified as highly critical and needing our help most during severe crises at home.
We managed to stretch the dollar due to discounts that the local markets gave to our housemothers for the bulk purchase of ingredients.
All in all, we spent less and got more; we reached more children with less money; and we impacted the children's parents and siblings, which brought about financial and psychological stability in their families.
What an enormous difference you've made by feeding our children in Cambodia.
And get ready for the good news: because you've been incredibly generous on last year's Bonus Day, Riverkids has been promoted from Partner to Superstar status on GlobalGiving. This means that when our new food campaign is up on June 12th 2013, GlobalGiving will match your online donations made on their website to Riverkids of up to US$1000 per person with, not 30%, but 50% bonus! This will continue until the bonus money is fully exhausted.
We will share more details with you about this wonderful campaign that is made possible with GlobalGiving's generosity and your tremendous support in our upcoming emails prior to the big day.
In the meantime, we've attached a recipe specially prepared by a lovely Cambodian lady living in Singapore for a fabulous dish called Nom Banh Samlor Khmer, a Cambodian soup noodle that tells you how warmly grateful we are to you for being such a superb donor!
Catch up soon.
Exceedingly grateful,
PS: If you have made recurring donations towards this project, GlobalGiving will communicate the instructions on how you could support their work or cancel future recurring donations. Thank you.
It's amazing how much our children in Cambodia have benefited from your giving.
Being in Cambodia in February this year was the best chance I could see for myself how our skinny little ones have grown chubby. Watching them play chase while others climb and collapse on one another just makes me chortle like them. The most rewarding part is to learn that more children are able to make it to high school and two have gone to the university. They've come a long way, so has your donation.
Our food campaign started on Global Giving in June 2012. Your generous giving and Global Giving's 30% bump provided much more. In three months' time, our project would have been on Global Giving for one year and we hope we'll reach the $64,000 target that fully funds meals for all our children.
If you have someone in mind who could help us reach that goal, it'd be great if you could ask them to partner us to make this come true. This means keeping our children off the streets and families together. Thank you very much for your support.
Riverkids has four centres set amidst the Phnom Penh slums. Each morning, children line up to get their breakfast and then in the afternoon, snacks and fruit.
Our Weekly Boarding kids have three meals a day at our first site, Alexandra. The boarding is a temporary shelter for abused children who reunite with their families after the crisis is over.
Some of the children come to the centre for extra classes, others have to be home to look after a younger sibling, but all these tell us that they are alright. We're seeing them flourishing with meals and school, so finishing school is not very far away, all because you chose to help.
We see our programs work – last week, a girl spoke up about her mom trying to sell her. She dared to believe that her sharing with our social workers will turn her fate around. This is bravery in the middle of harsh realities.
Two children whom we've been supporting to school are going to University. For the very first time in our Cambodian slums, we are seeing our kids making it very far. They're aiming higher and higher because with your support, they're beginning to see that their dreams and goals are within their reach.
Thank you very much for supporting Riverkids' food program.

Today, I read again, the love story of Chau and Kim and I felt as if I'm reading it for the first time.
A young hopeful lady, Chau, who traveled from Vietnam to Cambodia to look for a job found herself betrayed, sold to a brothel and trapped in a fake debt.
She met a young man, also from Vietnam and confided her story in him. Over time, they fell in love.
Kim worked hard, paid off her debt and freed her. They got married and raised a family, making promising plans for their children's future.
Then, Kim lost his job at the blacksmith and his new job paid less, so they had to take their children out of school. It soon became a struggle to feed their children especially when Chau was pregnant with their fifth child.
Reluctantly, Chau decided to secretly return to her old job as a sex worker, without letting her husband know. This helped the family financially for a while until Chau began to feel weak, she grew sicker and later learned that she was HIV positive.
Riverkids connected them to an NGO that helps HIV positive people and put her son on antiretroviral medication for free. We helped them navigate the medical system, supported the family with food and enrolled their oldest children in our school programs.
Their oldest daughter, Nyla excelled at school and Riverkids chose her as one of our Smartypants Scholarship students. Things appeared well as Chau's condition improved and with Kim's steady job as a tuktuk driver, but it took a turn.
As Kim was driving home two days after Christmas, a car slammed into his tuktuk. The surgery was late. Kim died.
Chau was confronted with the thought of returning to sex work, or worse, to sell Nyla. Grieving, she decided to return to Vietnam with her little children to her mother's house and later on, she found a job at a bakery shop.
She decided to leave Nyla in Riverkids' Weekly Boarding so she can have school. Nyla has made great strides and many friends with challenges like her, and together they thrive with school and meals. A bright future is within their reach.
Food is core in ensuring that our education programs run effectively. Children who are properly fed are able to concentrate in class and learn more. They can enjoy their favourite playtime and have a better chance to graduate from school.
A sandwich in the morning and a full bowl of rice with pork and vegetable soup make a huge difference. Thanks to many donors who saw this and supported our food program. With $64,000, we'll be able to see over 600 children at Riverkids fed for the year and safe from child labour, illegal adoption and sex trafficking. Please help us to feed the children.

E.ON has sold its 3.5 per cent stake in the Russian gas monopoly Gazprom for €3.4bn (£2.8bn). The German energy giant, which is raising money to expand outside Europe, sold 2.7 per cent to the Russian state bank VEB and 0.8 per cent on the stock market. As its earnings in Europe drop due to a tax on its nuclear power plants in Germany and demand falls due to the economic crisis, E.ON is seeking to lower its €45bn debt burden and raise money to expand outside the continent.
The company plans to generate €15bn through divestments in the next three years.

NWSB Insider and Vancouver Canucks blogger Mitch Dyck points to a few reasons why the AHL's Abbotsford Heat should be the franchise targeted by the Current Vancouver Canucks owners the Aquilini Investment Group. If the Canucks AHL affiliate was in Abbotsford, the recall of players is much speedier for home games and even road games in Western Canada. Good news for Kevin Connauton, Billy Sweatt, and possibly Eddie Lack.
Northwest Athlete Profile: Nick Taylor
Dave B goes inside current Canadian up and coming golf star Nick Taylor from Abbotsford BC with another northwest athlete profile. Nick Taylor is one of the new breed of Canadian golfers. In 2011 Nick received a sponsor's exemption into six Canadian Tour events. He played in seven events when it was all said and done and won over $15,000. With two top 10 finishes.
Butts, Boobies and the Bible? Lingerie football league invades Abbotsford
NWSB Insider and Vancouver BC sports blogger Steve Lee brings us the news this week about the (LFL) the lingerie football league coming to Abbotsford British Columbia, better known as the Bible-Belt of Canada. Many are offended by the promoted sexuality of the league and the apparent degradation of women. Many of these same people fail to realize that women's beach volleyball players wear the same if not less.

Caraviello: In Chase, one is loneliest number for Kyle Busch
October 15, 2011, David Caraviello, NASCAR.com
So much was different in 2005. The one-year-old Chase championship format was a newfangled concept that many were still getting used to, and some didn't think would be around for very long. Jimmie Johnson had yet to begin his half-decade-long romp into the history books. Teams like Bill Davis Racing and Petty Enterprises were still on the scene, drivers like Dale Jarrett and Ricky Rudd were still part of the series. And the Rookie of the Year in NASCAR's premier division that season was a brash and talented youngster named Kyle Busch. "Trust me, if I knew, I'd love to fix it. I have no idea." --KYLE BUSCH Much has changed since then -- the Chase has rooted itself into NASCAR's very fabric, the circuit's driver lineup has skewed decidedly younger, and a few well-known teams have fallen victim to the economic realities of the sport. Over that same span Busch has matured into one of the top competitors in the garage area, a driver whose fearlessness and mechanical savvy make for a potent combination. None of this comes as a surprise, given that he was so good so young that NASCAR implemented an age limit. Six years later, Busch has won 23 races (and counting) in the sport's top division, claimed more than 100 events at the national level all told, and is considered a potential threat for the championship every year. For Busch, only one thing hasn't changed since his rookie year. His number of Chase race victories remains a humbling and befuddling figure, that most lonely of numbers -- one. It's one of the most baffling conundrums in modern NASCAR history, how a driver almost universally regarded as the most naturally talented of his era can fare so poorly when it matters most. And yet that's been the case with Busch, who is in the middle of another Chase -- he's missed only one since his sophomore campaign at NASCAR's premier level -- and is once again staring up at too many of his competitors in the standings. For all the debate over his temperament and extracurricular activities, for all the questions about mechanical reliability at Joe Gibbs Racing, the fundamental reason behind Busch's inability to win a Sprint Cup title rests with his inability to win races during the Chase. Really, it's stunning -- Busch has competed in 67 Chase races over the course of his career, and been victorious in just one of them, the fall event at Phoenix International Raceway in his rookie season of 2005. And he wasn't even in the Chase then, during a freshman campaign that would see him finish 20th in points. In Chase races where Busch has been an active participant in the championship hunt, Busch is a staggering 0-for-44 entering Saturday night's event at Charlotte Motor Speedway. For someone with almost two dozen career victories, that's an almost incomprehensible drought. But historically, Busch simply hasn't run well during the Chase races, as evidenced by the fact that he's managed top-five finishes in only 14 of them. Adding to the agony is the fact that twice in his career -- including this season -- Busch has been the top seed entering the Chase, only to see his championship hopes unravel. Nothing sums up Kyle Busch more than his dizzying 2008 campaign: eight victories before September, then a broken suspension joint, engine failure and fuel-pressure problem in his first three Chase races, and an eventual 10th-place finish for a driver who had led the standings for 17 weeks, and by as many as 242 points late in the regular season. "Trust me, if I knew, I'd love to fix it. I have no idea," Busch, who has won four times this year, told reporters in Charlotte. "You know, years past we may have had wrecks or mechanical failures or something to that respect. This year it's not anything in particular, it's just we're not finishing where we've been running. Fuel issue obviously at Chicago. Not being the best, me not being the best and the car not being the best at Loudon. Dover we kind of missed it on the last run and Kansas we kind of got back in traffic a little bit when we came for two tires and some other guys stayed because they could make it the rest of the way. So, it's just been little things, but certainly little things can take you out of the running. It has been every single season I've been in the Chase that this stuff has happened." Why does it happen? No question, Busch can drive the wheels off anything. His cars are usually fast, and he wins races in bunches at other points in the year. The Chase, though, is always a struggle. Some of that is surely circumstantial, as evidenced by the parts failures that detonated a 2008 season which was his strongest yet on the Sprint Cup tour. But part of it also appears to be scheduling, given that from the perspective of average finish, Busch's five best tracks are outside the current Chase. Statistically, among Busch's 11 best tracks, only three -- Dover, Chicagoland and Phoenix -- are in the Chase. Not to oversimplify things, but this is a driver who is great at Richmond and Bristol, who is very good on road courses, who excels on big ovals like Fontana and Michigan. And this time of year, none of those layouts can help him. It's the opposite of Johnson, who has exceptional records at Chase venues like Dover, Kansas, Charlotte, Martinsville and Phoenix, the latter three of which are yet to come in this playoff. There are plenty of theories as to why the No. 48 team is able to peak at the end of the season, year after year. Crew chief Chad Knaus believes his driver's physical fitness plays a role, and thinks setup experimentation toward the end of the regular season pays dividends in the Chase. And surely, Johnson likes the schedule. Ultimately, though, it all comes down to winning (or coming close to it) over those final 10 events. Johnson has 74 Chase starts to Busch's 67, but he's won 20 times in the postseason compared to Busch's one, and scored 42 top-five finishes in the Chase compared to Busch's 14. Boil it down, and that's why Johnson -- who with his win last weekend at Kansas became the only driver to record a victory in every Chase -- has five championships, and Busch does not. None of this is news to Busch, of course, who is more familiar with his Chase frustrations than anyone else. That lone playoff victory at Phoenix almost six years ago feels like a long time ago, because it was. This year's Chase hasn't been disastrous like some others have for the driver of the No. 18 car, but to this point it hasn't been exceptional, either. Still, while Busch is eighth in the standings, he is only 20 off the lead in a points system susceptible to wild swings from one weekend to the next. He has time and opportunity to make up ground. That task begins Saturday at Charlotte, where Busch's average finish is 17.7, well down the list. Next week brings Talladega, which statistically is his second-worst track -- ahead of only Homestead, site of the season finale. Then there's Martinsville, where he's never won. For Kyle Busch, that's just how the Chase goes. "We just have to make sure that we keep fighting, and keep fighting hard," he said, "and not allowing discouraging runs like we've had get us down." The opinions expressed are solely those of the writer. Watch: Kyle Busch's season highlightsTrip to remember

Pvt co offered bribe to journo and business head of Zee: Subhash Chandra
"Jindals tried to bribe our channel's journalist and then our business head. Jindals also tried to pressurise me and made several calls when I was in US," Zee Group Chairman, Subhash Chandra said in conversation with media leaders at the Press Club here.
Last week, Naveen Jindal had filed a complaint with Delhi Police against Zee News charging that its senior journalists had demanded Rs 50 crore for not doing a story on coal block scam. The charge was rejected by Sudhir Chaudhar, the head of Zee Business, as a "fabrication".
Chandra also said his journalists were not involved in any wrongdoing and asserted that the accusations were false.
"This kind of allegation has happened in the past and may happen in the future. It doesn't make any difference to us and we will stick to the truth. These are all pressure tactics," Punit Goenka, Managing Director and Chief Executive, said earlier.
