I wasn't trash talking them! I was saying that they might have had a disadvantage!
The Beauty Queens may be underhanded, but at least they know how to slut up and shut up when its necessary.They were the ones willing to ride the pole to flatten the noodles this episode like they were shown. Mirna decided to bounce on it every which way and continually yell at Charla for not doing things right and telling her the wrong width for the noodles.
I kinda did! LOL j/kI think that the Beauty Queens are underhanded, and what they did to buy a Yield is....is....is....STINKYRob
Yeah I did but I thought down_with_alli was me, and you were agreeing with her...sorry!

Hi guys
Just wanting to see if anyone has recommendations of good mechanics for my gti. Have to take it in for service and not sure of any good mechanics in the area.

Have a quick search mate- there's a lot of info on the forum already.
VW Village Kensington are good for a quick oil change, filters and standard logbook service, for bigger issues they're not that helpful in my experience.

Are There Piranhas in Fort Collins' City Park Lake?
In the state of Colorado you can only own piranhas if you have a permit. The whole reason that is required, and some states even have outlawed the fish completely, is because people were buying the predator fish and dumping them into lakes and streams. Did someone do that in Fort Collins?
Piranhas are a deep-bodied South American freshwater fish that have very sharp teeth that are used to tear flesh from prey. They have a reputation as a fearsome predator. If you have never seen a piranha eating a hot dog, YouTube it!
Now imagine what these fish would do to other fish in local lakes, small dogs, or even a finger or toe of someone swimming in a lake... OUCH!
That is why Pedro Linsenmeyer and his son saved the fish they caught this week out of Sheldon Lake at City Park in Fort Collins. The Coloradoan did a story about the man and his son with pictures of the fish that looks just like a piranha. But experts say the fish is more likely a South American fish known as a pacu, which is a close cousin to the piranha. The fish is known as the "vegetarian" piranha, and the two can be told apart by their teeth. While piranhas have pointy teeth, pacus have squared-off teeth.
So the short answer to the question, "Are There Piranhas in Fort Collins' City Park Lake?," is yes, "vegetarian" piranhas known as pacus.

ONTARIO—The best way to check heart attack risk in the obese isn't body mass index (BMI); a person's waist-to-hip ratio was far more effective, according to new, global research.
In a study published in The Lancet medical journal, researchers assessed whether other markers for obesity, especially waist-to-hip ratio, would be a stronger predictor of heart attack than the conventional measure of BMI in different ethnic populations. Previous research has shown that obesity increases the risk of heart disease; however, most have been done in European and North American populations.
The investigators looked at BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, waist measure, and hip measure in more than 27,000 people from 52 countries. Half the participants had previously had a heart attack and half were age and sex-matched controls (individuals who had not had a heart attack and were the same age and sex as cases). The team found that BMI was only slightly higher in heart attack patients than in controls, with no difference in the Middle East and South Asia. By contrast, heart attack patients had a strikingly higher waist-to-hip ratio than controls, irrespective of other cardiovascular risk factors. The researchers found that this observation was consistent in men and women, across all ages, and in all regions of the world.
The authors' found that compared with BMI, waist-to-hip ratio is three times stronger than BMI in predicting the risk of a heart attack. Larger waist size (which reflects the amount of abdominal fat) was harmful, whereas larger hip size (which may indicate the amount of lower body muscle) was protective.
"Our findings suggest that substantial reassessment is needed of the importance of obesity for cardiovascular disease in most regions of the world," said Salim Yusuf, director of the Population Health Research Institute at McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences. The waist-to-hip ratio is calculated by dividing the waist measure by the hip measure. The cut off point for cardiovascular risk factors is less than 0.85 for women and 0.90 for men. A higher number denotes more risk.
The study was funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario and 37 other funding sources, including unrestricted support from several pharmaceutical companies.

I've been chatting about this a little in my E1.31 Arduino Library thread. It's an E1.31 WiFi pixel controller, built around the ESP8266 in an Arduino enviornment. I have a write-up on it on my site here. I'm considering doing a group buy on these if there's enough interest. I would be offering them in kit form with all SMD pre-soldered and full BOM, and as a board itself (no BOM). My goal is to get the kits down to $10 each for a group buy, minus the ESP-01 module which is around $3.50. I'm planning to move to a europlug vs the wafer so people don't need crimpers, but please indicate which you prefer. Chime in if you have any interest, thanks!

On a hot summer day, who wouldn't want to submerge in a cool and refreshing pool? At the end of a long day, what better way to relax than to float? Enjoying all that requires some regular attention to pool equipment. The water in your pool is an ever-changing environment that calls for both attention and maintenance. For many, this means employing a professional service technician to come by once or twice a week. You can, on the other hand, take care of your pool yourself by following these steps.
Step 1 – The Pool Cover
Obviously, the first step to cleaning a pool is to remove your pool cover, if you have one. Two people make this easier by each grabbing a corner at the shallow end and dragging the cover off at the same time. As you pull, fold the cover on top of itself every five feet or so, like you would a fan, to keep any debris on it in place instead of slipping into your pool. Flatten the cover where it can dry completely and remove any debris from it before refolding and storing in a dry place.
Step 2 – Assemble Your Tools
After a winter of sitting stagnant, your pool's water will require a thorough filtering and chemical analysis/adjustment while the walls, floor, and stairs will need to be scrubbed and vacuumed. Having everything on hand when you intend to start cleaning will save you time.
Aqua Broom Swimming Pool Vacuum keeps your pool free from dirt, leaves, sand, algae, and debris with the help of a Telescoping Pole. It can run for up to three hours on five D batteries and has its own internal vacuum system so you won't need to connect it to your pool's filtration system.
Have a large pool? The bigger-capacity Pool Blaster Aqua Broom has a high-flow pump that processes up to 60 gallons of water per minute and an extra-wide 10″ vacuum head that lets you cover large areas of your pool for faster cleaning. Attach it to a Telescoping Pole and tackle your biggest spaces or messes with ease.
TIP: Pay particular attention to corners, stairs and other hard-to-reach areas that typically get little water circulation.
Step 4 – Small Debris Removal
It's likely your swimming pool water is slimy, dirty or cloudy right now, which is an indication that the pool chemicals are out of balance and aren't properly killing algae or bacteria. Let the filter run for 24 hours as that allows the water on top to mix with that on the bottom so you'll get more accurate water chemistry test results.
TIP: Point your jets slightly upward and to the left. This will help your water flow clockwise and not fight Mother Nature. You will achieve better circulation.
Take the guesswork out of swimming pool maintenance by using the ePool™ Water Chemistry Monitor. You will have no more tedious manual water testing and unhealthy chemical overuse because the ePool™ Water Chemistry Monitor lets you check the status of your pool from the comfort of your home. This wireless system accurately measures swimming pool water chemistry and advises you how to optimally maintain your pool or spa for maximum safety and comfort.
Knowing how to troubleshoot the chemical imbalance in your swimming pool can help keep you enjoying your swimming pool all season long.
Step 5 – Turn Up the Heat
While your filtration system works on cleaning up the pool water, you should also have it distributing the heat at the same time. And if you let the sun run the heater, you could save upwards of $100 per month!* Your pool's pump circulates the water through the solar cells of an above-ground solar pool heater and the sun-heated water is then delivered back into your pool. For bigger pools or faster heating, you can link together two or more solar pool heaters.
Step 6 – Organize Toys & Supplies
Balls, floats, noodles, and vests can litter the area around a pool creating a hazardous obstacle course. Prevent injury by keeping all your pool toys and supplies contained in a mesh Pool Toy Storage Bin. Have a lot of inflatable floats? A Pool Float Organizer can help keep them clear of the water as well as more secure so they don't blow away with the wind.
Step 7 – Schedule It
If you make maintenance a priority, you can keep your swimming pool clean and sanitized in just 15 minutes a week! By putting it on your calendar, you will be less likely to have large messes to clean up and instead have minimal "touch-up" work to do.
Now go enjoy your pool!
If you have any swimming pool cleaning tips or stories, please add them in the comments below.

Teenagers online in the USA
According to Pew Internet 95% of teenagers in the USA now report they have a smartphone or access to one. These mobile connections are in turn fueling more-persistent online activities: 45% of teens now say they are online on a near-constant basis.
Roughly half (51%) of 13 to 17 year olds say they use Facebook, notably lower than the shares who use YouTube, Instagram or Snapchat.
The survey also finds there is no clear consensus among teens about the effect that social media has on the lives of young people today. Minorities of teens describe that effect as mostly positive (31%) or mostly negative (24%), but the largest share (45%) says that effect has been neither positive nor negative.
Robots to help learning
The TES reports on a project that uses robots to help children in hospital take part in lessons and return to school has received funding from the UK Department for Education.
TES says "The robot-based project will be led by medical AP provider Hospital and Outreach Education, backed by £544,143 of government money.
Under the scheme, 90 "tele-visual" robots will be placed in schools and AP providers around the country to allow virtual lessons.
The robot, called AV1, acts as an avatar for children with long-term illnesses so they can take part in class and communicate with friends.
Controlling the robot remotely via an iPad, the child can see and hear their teacher and classmates, rotating the robot's head to get a 360-degree view of the class.
It is hoped the scheme will help children in hospital to feel less isolated and return to school more smoothly."
According to developer Gary Pendergast, WordPress 5, Gutenberg, is nearing release.
Pendergast says: "As the WordPress community, we have an extraordinary opportunity to shape the future of web development. By drawing on the past experiences of WordPress, the boundless variety and creativity found in the WordPress ecosystem, and modern practices that we can adopt from many different places in the wider software world, we can create a future defined by its simplicity, its user friendliness, and its diversity."
Adult Education in Wales

Premier League: Man United 2 Cardiff 0
The returning Robin van Persie overshadowed Juan Mata on his debut as Manchester United claimed a comfortable 2-0 victory over Cardiff City.
Spain international Mata was given his first outing in a United shirt since completing his club-record £37.1 million deal from Premier League rivals Chelsea on Saturday, but it was Van Persie - making his first appearance since December 10 due to a groin injury – who stole the show by notching the opener.
Mata played his part in a lively United performance, and he was afforded a standing ovation by the Old Trafford crowd as he was withdrawn in the closing stages, with Ashley Young's superb strike rounding off a pleasing night for boss David Moyes.
Cardiff manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who enjoyed an 11-year spell as a player at United, could not spoil the party against his former club - the Norwegian enduring an unhappy homecoming as he continues to search for his first Premier League victory in charge.
The home side controlled the tempo in the first half and deservedly moved ahead when Van Persie scored his fifth goal in his last six Premier League games with a close-range header.
United continued to impress and Young added a second with a fierce strike just short of the hour mark, as United surpassed 1,000 points at Old Trafford in the Premier League.
United utilised Mata behind Van Persie, while Wayne Rooney was on the substitutes' bench after a five-match lay-off with a foot injury.
As well as welcoming back Solskjaer, there was another familiar face for United fans in the Cardiff line-up, as they named former Old Trafford striker Fraizer Campbell in their starting XI.
The home side were rewarded for a bright start with the opener after six minutes.
Antonio Valencia headed Young's teasing delivery against the crossbar and, although David Marshall saved Van Persie's initial follow-up, the Dutchman nodded home the rebound.
Mata was at the heart of all United's attacking play but, despite their solid start, it took until the 34th minute for the champions to fashion another chance of note when Patrice Evra's clever backheel found the lively Van Persie, who flashed an effort across goal from an acute angle.
Cardiff could have punished the hosts when Craig Noone crossed from the right, only for his delivery to narrowly evade Campbell.
The visitors enjoyed a spell of pressure after the break and Declan John's cutback only just escaped the attentions of Campbell again.
United were rarely in danger, however, and Young made it 2-0 on 59 minutes when he received the ball on the left before cutting inside and skipping past two challenges to rifle into the far corner from 25 yards.
Shortly afterwards, Rooney replaced Van Persie - and he was soon among the action with a deflected effort sailing narrowly wide.
Valencia then saw Marshall tip his effort onto the post as United piled on the pressure.
Mata saw an effort deflected over before he was withdrawn with time running out, receiving the adulation of his new fans.
Rooney then curled wide from 20 yards in injury time but United had done enough.

Spoiled Again!
Arguments about "spoilers" are [SPOILER ALERT!] tedious and annoying, and nobody who feels strongly about such things one way or the other will ever convince the
fanatics people on the other side to agree with them, so such arguments are a huge waste of time and energy, and I have vowed [SPOILER ALERT!] to stay out of them for ever and ever and evermore, but now the film scholar David Bordwell has gone and made a fascinating blog post about [SPOILER ALERT!] how spoiler standards have changed and shifted over time and in various circumstances. Very much worth reading.

London's Wembley Stadium venue has become the trusted vehicle for the league's annual efforts to drum up more overseas interest. Heading into the first of two regular-season games there this year, it's clear stadium officials want to see a lot more of the NFL as well.
With the league expanding its annual international series from one game to two this year, the usual questions arise whether one day the league will expand to London. NFL officials said any such decision is several years away, but Wembley officials say they'll be ready if the day comes.
Squeezing in a full slate of home games on Sundays shouldn't interfere with the stadium's commitments to host England's national team soccer fixtures and other events, Wembley's managing director Roger Maslin said Monday.
"Absolutely we can," Maslin said as the stadium was being prepared for Sunday's game between the Minnesota Vikings and Pittsburgh Steelers. "I am absolutely confident if (NFL Commissioner) Roger Goodell wanted to have a franchise here we could absolutely deliver on it."
Wembley started staging regular-season NFL games in 2007. The Jacksonville Jaguars face the San Francisco 49ers there on Oct. 27. It is the first of four games over four seasons in London for the Jaguars, raising the prospect of the Florida team one day uprooting to London, where owner Shad Khan bought Premier League club Fulham in July.
The two 2013 games sold out within hours, which Maslin said is a sign of the rising popularity of the NFL in Britain.
The "core fan base" in the U.K. is now more than 2 million, according to Chris Parsons, the NFL's senior vice president of international.
Having a full-time franchise in London is "clearly an option" for the NFL, but Parsons cautioned that there are no immediate plans.
"There are several steps we need to continue to take before we get to that deeper conversation," Parsons said. "We'd like to play more games every year as we move forward. Once you've got a sizeable fan base, the options are then much more available to you to do certain things."
Spiller hopeful
Buffalo Bills running back C.J. Spiller doesn't expect an injury to his right leg to keep him from playing against Baltimore this weekend.
Spiller walked without a limp and anticipated he should "be good" to play Sunday, when Buffalo (1-2) hosts Baltimore (2-1).
Spiller was hurt a day earlier on a 2-yard run in the second quarter of a 27-20 loss at the New York Jets. He returned for the start of the third quarter before pulling himself from the game.
Also …
The retirees who sued the NFL Players Association over benefit negotiations during the lockout lost their appeal. The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the prior decision of U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson in Minnesota rejecting the claim against the union by the retirees. They argued they illegally were excluded from negotiations over post-career care to streamline the process and were seeking hundreds of millions of dollars in damages. … The Arizona Cardinals lost starting outside linebackers Sam Acho and Lorenzo Alexander for the season and safety Rashad Johnson lost the tip of a finger. Acho broke his leg and Alexander sustained a season-ending foot injury in Arizona's 31-7 loss at New Orleans on Sunday. Johnson doesn't know how the tip of his left middle finger was severed during the game, but there's a chance he could play Sunday against Tampa Bay. … The Chicago Bears lost starting defensive tackle Henry Melton for the season because of a torn left anterior cruciate ligament suffered in Sunday's win over Pittsburgh. … Jacksonville's Blaine Gabbert, who missed the last two games after slicing open the back of his throwing hand, will start Sunday against Indianapolis.

|History of the Name
The official history of the geographic name New Glasgow (which can be somewhat technical, we admit):
Post Office closed August 1968. New Glasgow, Prince Edwar d Island was named by early settlers who emigrated from S cotland in 1820. The first to arrive was John Moffatt. He was followed by the Arthurs, Orrs, Semples, and Stevenso ns. These people named the place New Glasgow after their home town, and the adjacent river the Clyde. A ceremony w as held during which a bottle of liquor was broken over t he bridge, which was then simply a log placed across the river. There are also villages called Glasgow and Glasgow Mountain in Nova Scotia. New Glasgow (Vill.) was adopted tin Place Names of PEI, 1925.Confirmed 12 December 1939 on 11L/6.Status changed to Hamlet in 1960 Gazetteer.Status changed to Locality 23 October 1989 on 203-8.

I created a new MVC 3 empty project. I intend to use JQuery with it and the new features like Templates, etc.
I get the following files in my Scripts folder, which as far as I know do the following:
MicrosoftAjax.js > Microsoft Ajax Library.
MicrosoftMvcAjax.js > JSON stuff for MVC?
MicrosoftMvcValidation.js > Client Validation in MVC integrated with JQuery Validation
I think, since I will use JQuery on my projects and with the Templates I can delete MicrosoftAjax.js, correct?
And I need to keep the other two.
What do you think?

I want to create a new table to sql database at runtime. The column
names would be "Name", "Date", "Event". I would also like to have one
more column name "Image" but the problem is that since the amount of
images will vary, I want the application to count the amount of files
in the Multiple fileuploader and then add a image column to the table
for the respected amount of files.
For example if i am
uploading 3 files in the multiple fileuploader, the names should be
"Name", "Date", "Event", "Image1", "image2", Image3"
I also would like that table name to be name dynamically from the textbox Name when the user enters the information.
have the following code to make a new table, but I dont know how to
name the fields at runtime like previously asked please help!!!

Hi All,
I need to deliver source code to client and my boss need to remove all the comments and #region sections from the whole web site source code.
So is there any functionality available in visual studio 2010 or may be in an other 3rd party tool available to do so, which can remove all the #region from all over the source code ?
Otherwise my developers has to do donkey work.... :(( and I don't wish it.

I have some resource files for localization and would like to print them. When I try to print them in Visual Studio (with File -> Print...) the button is disabled. Does anyone know how to print them? (Without copying each into word or excel)

I run a simple .aspx website on a Windows Server 2008 machine.
There is NO impersonation, and
System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name returns NT
AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE, which it the account which the application
pool runs. In my web.config, I have <authentication mode="Forms">.
I tried to test the security of the
application and server by removing file permissions to the .aspx files. I
was greatly worried when the website continued to run without problem
(it should not have been able to read the .aspx files).
By turning
on file level auditing, I discovered that the .aspx files were being
read by the machine$ account (if the machine is called Serv1, then the
files would be read by the Serv1$ account, which seems to have access to
all files on the local machine).
Is this a security breach or is this behaviour by design ?
Please can somebody assist, as I am worried.
Here is my dilema, on my site i have a WordPress Audio player (http://wpaudioplayer.com/standalone) that plays my mp3's.
It loads the Mp3's in by javascript...example below:
AudioPlayer.embed("audioplayer_7", { soundFile: "/Files/Music/[name of file].mp3" });
This file name is clearly visible in the browser source. Not a problem, however this means that any user can legitimately browse to the file directly and download it.
Now i still need the mp3 player (which is flash) to have access to the file but if a user was to try accessing the file directly, they would not be allowed access to it.
I am not sure how to go about this, i am circling the idea of a httphandler but not sure if this is sufficiant to stop the direct access to the file.
Any help would be appreciated
I dont have the SQL EXPRESS installed instead I have SQL Standard Edition.
I have two SQL Server instances installed.
1- UserLT (this is sql 2000)2- UserLT\SQL2005 (this is SQL 2005 named instance)
But when i try to add a database to my VS website project I get the following error:
Connection to SQL Server files (*.mdf) require SQL server express 2005 to function properly. please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkId=4925
I went in Tools>Opetions>DataBase tools>Data Connection>Sql Server Instance Name (blank for default)
and changed the "SQLEXPRESS" to "USERLT\SQL2005".
But I still get the same error message. Any ideas how i can resolve this issue?
One of my NUnit tests has to read in some values from config files. In my main application this process works perfectly well, however when I run the unit test, the code that reads in the values from the config files doesnt read anything in. Ive tried putting app.config in my unit test project (I even tried web.config) but nothing seems to work. Are there any special steps involved when reading from config files in an nunit test ?
Ive created an NUnit test project in my solution and have added 3 tests. They all fail with the same error
SetUp : System.TypeInitializationException : The type initializer for 'Systems.Utils.ConstantHelpers' threw an exception.
----> System.NullReferenceException : Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
heres the test method

So I took the Forums advice and made a separate RESX file for each ASPX page in my web app. Personally, I wanted to put all of my language strings into a single global RESX file, but instead I did it the 'right' way and made a separate one for each ASPX. So now Ive got about 100 different RESX files with 5 to 15 short strings of text each. Many of them are repeats. The question is, how can I export these 100 RESX files into one single spreadsheet that I can send off for translation to other languages? Whats the normal way to do that? I dont want to send the translating company 100 little files, I'd rather send just one big one. And I'd like to omit duplicate text strings (for example, "Cancel" appears in at least 50 of the RESX files - I dont want to pay for that word to be translated 50 times).

A Similar Script
It would be easy to write something like, "It's getting comical."
The problem is that it isn't.
The script: Defense gives up a bucketload of yards and big plays (>20 yards per play), putting the offense in comeback mode for the entirety of the ballgame. And when the defense does make some critical stops, either bad execution, or bad luck, snaps a possible victory back to the hands of defeat.
A Typical Tennessee Opening Half
In the first half, South Carolina scored in their first possession on a 33 yard pass play from Connor Shaw to Bruce Ellington. With their second possesion, the Gamecocks had to punt, but did so from good field position allowing the kick to go out of bounds at the Vol 13, putting Tennessee in a hole. The drive was maintained on another big play, this time on 3rd down that was a 25 yard pass to Rory Anderson.
Then after converting on a 4th down situation to keep the third possession drive alive, South Carolina after a QB sack found themselves 3rd and goal at the Tennessee 26 yard line. No problem. Another big play: a 26-yard pass play to Rory Anderson for a TD. On the next possession, the Gamecocks scored again, this time a 28-yard run by Marcus Lattimore immediately following a 19-yard pass completion to Justice Cunningham.
The only thing that slowed South Carolina on their next possession was a gruesome, season-ending (career-ending?) knee injury to RB Marcus Lattimore. But on the next possession – the last of the first half, South Carolina methodically marched down the field to the Vol 1 yard line with less than a minute in the half. Defensive stop, then a time out. Another defensive stop, then another time out. But on the third try, QB Shaw, with a triple-receiver set to the right, tiptoed untouched into the end zone on a naked bootleg / option of sorts to the left.
Gamecocks 28 Vols 14 at the half. Once again, a conference opponent had completely shredded the Tennessee defense to put the Big Orange offense in a hole from which they couldn't recover.
Overshadowed was the exceptional receiving play by Vol WR Zach Rogers who caught three Tyler Bray passes, two for TDs (23 and 37 yards). Yes, that Zach Rogers, who has become Tennessee's best and most reliable wide receiver.
A Typical Tennessee Closing Half
The second half eventually sucked you in, only to leave you disappointed at the end once again.
On the first play of the second half, Tennessee was called for sideline interference (how much more bizarre can this whole thing going to get?), but South Carolina got nowhere. Tennessee did on the following possession, when Tyler Bray hit Vincent Dallas for a 61-yard TD pass play, aided by the Gamecock defender falling down just before Dallas caught the home-run pass. At 28-21 Gamecocks, you asked yourself, "When is this defense going to make a stop to give the Vols' offense a chance?"
That was not now, but would come later.
After both teams traded three-and-outs, South Carolina put together one of those grind-it-out drives: 12 plays and 80 yards, capped by yet another big play when Ace Sanders hauled in a Shaw pass for a 24-yard TD play.
Once again down 14 points, the Vols offense came back to make a game of it. The first play of the final quarter featured Pig Howard the lone Volunteer in the backfield. Taking the snap in the shotgun, Pig rolled right then threw a perfect pass to TE Mychal Rivera for a Tennessee touchdown.
But down 28-35, the Sal Sunseri defense once again couldn't stop Steve Spurrier's offense. Fueled by a 45-yard pass play to Justice Cunningham, Herman Lathers – 15 tackles (13 solo) on the afternoon — sacked Connor Shaw, forcing the Gamecocks to settle for a 36-yard field goal.
Now down by 10 points, the Vols used the quick-strike method, running only four plays to score a TD to get Tennessee within three at 38-35, the last two plays ate up half the field — a 27-yard pass play to Rivera followed by Zach Rogers' third TD reception of the afternoon (22 yards).
Nearing the Red Zone, South Carolina opted to go for it on a 4th down and 4 yards. Great pressure by the Vols' defensive front forced Shaw to throw a floater into midfield, but this one was intercepted by Herman Lathers, capping the big man's best game of his season with a little less than five minutes remaining in the game.
It was now or never for Tyler Bray, for Tennessee, and perhaps even for Derek Dooley.
Starting from the 19 yard line, Bray hit Rogers for 20, then for 10 more. Then to Mariln Lane for 6.Tyler Bray was dealing, playing perhaps the best game of his career: 300++ yards, 4 TDs, and 0 INTs.
Tennessee was actually going to make a heroic comeback and win against a Top 20 team? On the road?
Then, two more first downs — a 7-yard pass to Rogers followed by Marlin Lane running for 19 more to get Tennessee to the Gamecock 19 yard line.
All afternoon, the Tennessee offensive line had kept All-World DE Jadeveon Clowney from getting a sniff of the Vols' backfield. But big-time players make big-time plays when the game is on the line. That's what they do.
With Bray in the pocket, and visually finding his receiver over the middle, Clowney blew by Tiny Richardson for the first time all day. After No. 7 hit No. 8, the ball lay on the ground just like it did earlier in Athens. It rolled around the feet of Richardson, but a garnet shirt fell on it.
But Tennessee had all of its timeouts left. After two plays, the Vols had taken two of the three. Then on third down and just a second under a minute left, Shaw for some reason headed for the left sideline where Derek Dooley was standing on his now-signature crutches. Shaw stepped out of bounds — nearly taking out the Young Ball coach — stopping the clock with 0:47. But for some reason, Dooley called a time out.
Not that it mattered — Tennessee got the ball back on a punt, after which Bray was sacked and then intercepted on a near-last-second desparation pass. But the wasted timeout seemed so emblamatic of Dooley's stint as the wearer of the orange pants in this suffering family.
A three-point loss. There was no moral victory to be had. Tennessee had used up its allotment long ago.
Will this be the last game for which Derek Dooley is Tennessee's head coach?
I don't know, and neither do most people who say that they do. But one thing is for certain: you cannot win in this league when your defense gives up over 500 yards in total offense.
The lack of a consistent defensive effort is just the latest reason that Tennessee is 0-15 against ranked teams in three seasons.
But perhaps more damning is that the Vols are sitting at an 0-5 SEC mark for the third season in a row.
Only Vanderbilt has ever matched that level of ineptitude.

Sandy says :
Yep… 0-5… again.
Not that this team hasn't had a chance. They had Florida until late in the 3rd quarter… could have won against Georgia… and could have won this one against the Gamecocks.
But, they didn't win. And that's all that matters. Even though one could say that this team has made progress over the previous two years, I don't think it's enough. They may win out, get a bowl bid, and win there, but the program is bottom half of the SEC, at best. Not where the Big Orange are supposed to be.
And that was one gruesome sight on Lattimore's injury… reminded be of the Theisman broken leg by Lawrence Taylor many years ago. I hope the best for the young man.

Thoughts about a harmonious balance between the body, mind and world—let's call this health and vitality—extend back to the dawn of history. In many traditions, these views are often refined over centuries of practice and study.
Now the marvels of modern medicine, as flashy and effective as they can be, are a relatively new arrival onto the healing scene.
Yet percolating within modern medicine is a bizarre conundrum. Increasingly troubled big pharmaceutical companies are finding that the placebo effect, their biggest enemy, is getting stronger.
"It's not that the old meds are getting weaker, drug developers say. It's as if the placebo effect is somehow getting stronger," writes Steve Silberman in a recent article in Wired. "The fact that an increasing number of medications are unable to beat sugar pills has thrown the industry into crisis."
I'd like to posit that, like an electron, this enigma has two faces, or spins; as if the enigma itself has an independent intelligence. Spin down: We call it placebo. Spin up: We call her Mother Nature.
Like the word placebo, the jumble is a spin-down, derogatory medical term for a harmful relationship between health and the imaginal realm.
To solve the riddle, enter answers into the boxes located below each clue. The circled letters should then be entered into the row of circles. Lastly, unscramble the letters in the row of squares.

Ben Smith picked up on a blog post* by Lauren Hepler at the Center for Responsive Politics about out-of-state money, noting:
The numbers are interesting on the merits, though the general, bipartisan flow of money from big metropolitan areas to powerful members from smaller, poorer places is hardly a surprise. The data is also pretty much made for attack ads.
Ben's final point about attack ads is an example of how out of step our perceptions about virtuous politics are with reality. If we want to argue it logically rather than intuitively, we need to establish and defend three premises:
- All in-state or in-district money is inherently "better" than out-of-state/-district money
- Conversely, all out-of-state money is inherently pernicious or distorting.
- Campaign finance legislation, which is subject to influence by the same powerful interests whose power it's attempting to curtail, can be sufficiently well-written to be both politically viable and achieve its aims.
It turns out that there are a lot of reasons to be skeptical about these premises, both collectively and in isolation.
To begin with, a government that is entirely funded by local interests more likely to create a gridlocked republic than a virtuous one, especially given current Senate rules. Moreover, it's an equilibrium state that's highly (and narrowly) cartelized and accordingly hostile to change, which further decreases the likelihood of meaningful action in Washington D.C. Finally, because barriers to entry are high, voter choice suffers. Out-of-state money creates the potential for change by giving candidates who are outside of local fundraising networks a viable path to elected office (See: Tea Party). That can be good or bad, but that's a question of the ends to which that money is applied, not the fact that it exists.
To take the second premise seriously, you have to ignore the "federal" aspect of our federal government. Legislators from outside your state or district often vote for or against laws that affect you. If you don't live in their state or district, your means of indicating your approval or disapproval of their actions are limited to activism or fundraising. And while there's a natural, tribal reflex against people from outside [arbitrary boundary] making themselves a part of the electoral process inside [arbitrary boundary], the decisions we make at the polls affect them. It's a speech issue, and protected as such.
The third premise gets at the tension underlying Larry Lessig's "economy of influence" argument. As I wrote a long time ago, the problem with the argument is that it goes to great lengths to establish that Congress is broken, hopelessly captive to special interests, and so on. Then Lessig argues for federal legislation to address this issue. See the problem? If, as Lessig asserts, legislators have a clear idea of their self-interest (usually preceded by a $ sign), why on earth would any given leader act against it? At the most basic level, how do you persuade someone that money they've already gotten is less valuable than money they might get in the future? Unclear.
What really matters is not where the money comes from, geographically speaking, but what its source is and how clearly that information is tracked and disseminated. If Candidate X is extensively funded by the local chapter of Baby Eaters Anonymous, we should probably care about that more than the fact his opponent, Candidate Y, gets large checks from Americans for the Laughter of Children, based in the neighboring state. Or, put simply, the problem with Citizens United v. FEC isn't that it allows huge spending by corporate interests–the old system allowed that–but rather that it provides no disclosure requirements. That's why the fate of the DISCLOSE act (59-39! Stunning defeat!) is arguably more troubling than the ruling it addresses.
*The CRP post misuses the phrase "begging the question," which is a huge pet peeve of mine. To "beg the question" is to assume your conclusion as a premise and thereby make a circular argument, not to beg someone to ask you a question. Also, I stole the title of this post from a Bon Jovi song. That's just how I roll.

House acts to save 900 acres in Southbury
The state House of Representatives has unanimously passed legislation that would ensure about 900 acres of prime farmland at the Southbury Training School would be used for agricultural purposes, no matter what becomes of the school in the future.
The vote late Thursday was hailed as a milestone by state Rep. Arthur O'Neill, R-Southbury, who for years has been seeking to preserve the property, most of which is now used to raise crops to feed residents of the facility.
"For a number of years, I have proposed legislation in keeping with the recommendations of the task force that has studied the future use of the Southbury Training School Farm and other state-owned agricultural land," O'Neill said.
"The key recommendation of the task force was that a private party be given control over the land for the purpose of encouraging and facilitating long-term agricultural use."
At a hearing in March, the measure drew support from Southbury First Selectman Ed Edelson, Selectman Chad Landmon and Roxbury First Selectman Barbara Henry.
About 105 acres of the training school property is located in Roxbury and is bordered by 117 acres owned by the Roxbury Land Trust.
The House bill, which has already been backed by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, now goes to the Senate for consideration.
O'Neill praised the governor and the state Department of Agriculture for supporting the legislation, and said he hopes the measure will become a model for preservation of other state-owned agricultural properties included in the task force report.
The training school, which was founded in the late 1930s, once housed more than 1,000 residents, but its current population is about 400 people. The facility no longer accepts new clients.
The governor last month announced the formation of another task force to develop a plan for the future use of the training school campus, which houses the facility's buildings.

Debroize completed this project as the creative director for the graphic design studio Kerozen. After using modeling clay to render the shapes of the letters, Debroize took photos of both the letters and the faces of the 7 Kerozen team members. "Then I made a mapping of skin textures on the letters with Photoshop and added the hair and the eyes," Debroize elaborates. "It was not a problem to show an unflattering image of us.

Free Lynne Stewart Now
By Stephen
Lynne's wrongfully imprisoned. She's one of America's best. For 30 years, she defended its poor, underprivileged, unwanted, and forgotten. Without advocates like her, they're denied due process and judicial fairness.
She was targeted for representing clients prosecutors want convicted. A previous article said Obama wants her dead. She's gravely ill. She's a breast cancer survivor. It reemerged. It's spreading. She's denied proper treatment. More on her below.
America's gulag prison system shames the nation. It's a crime against humanity. It's by far the world's largest. It's one of the worst. Many in it shouldn't be there.
Blacks and Latinos comprise two-thirds of its population. They're society's most vulnerable. Around half imprisoned are for nonviolent offenses. Many are elicit drug related. They're captives under cruel and inhumane conditions.
Mandatory minimum sentences exacerbate things. So do racist and other deplorable policies. They include pervasive judicial unfairness, three strikes and you're out, get tough on crime harshness, and a guilty unless proved innocent mentality.
In his book "Race to Incarcerate," Marc Mauer discussed America's obsession with imprisonment, punishment, the commodification of prisoners, and rage to fill prison beds.
Countless numbers of political prisoners fill them. The Free Dictionary calls them people "who have been imprisoned for holding or advocating dissenting political views....for holding, expressing, or acting in accord with particular political beliefs."
The Oxford Dictionaries definition is "a person imprisoned for their political beliefs or actions."
In the 1960s, Amnesty International (AI) coined the term "prisoner of conscience." It refers to anyone incarcerated for their race, religion, ethnicity, language, sexual orientation, beliefs, or lifestyle.
In a London Guardian/Observer May 28, 1961 article titled, "The Forgotten Prisoners," AI's founder Peter Benenson (1921 - 2005) defined the term as follows:
"Any person who is physically restrained (in prison or otherwise) for expressing any opinion which he (or she) honestly holds and which does not advocate or condone personal violence."
"Open your newspaper any day of the week, and you will find a report from somewhere in the world of someone being imprisoned, tortured or executed because his (or her) opinions or religion are unacceptable to his (or her) government."
"That is why we have started Appeal for Amnesty (AI), 1961. The campaign, which opens today, is the result of an initiative by a group of lawyers, writers and publishers in London, who share the underlying conviction expressed by Voltaire: 'I detest your views, but am prepared to die for your right to express them.' "
Howard Zinn called dissent "the highest form of patriotism."
"In fact, if patriotism means being true to the principles for which your country is supposed to stand, then certainly the right to dissent is one of those principles."
"And if we're exercising that right to dissent, it's a patriotic act."
"One of the great mistakes (about) patriotism....is to think (it) means support for your government."
"When governments have become destructive (of life, liberty and equality), it is the right of the people....to alter or abolish" it.
In her 1999 article titled, "Prisons, Social Control and Political Prisoners," former political prisoner Marilyn Buck discussed what too few understand.
She called prisons warehouses to "disappear the unacceptable....to deprive their captives of their liberties, their human agency, and to punish....(to) stigmatize prisoners through moralistic denunciations and indictment based on bad genes - skin color (ethnicity, or other characteristics) as a crime."
Countless numbers of prisoners in America aren't incarcerated "because they are 'criminals,' but because they've been accused of breaking (a law) designed to exert tighter social control and State repression."
At issue is scapegoating, demonizing, and criminalizing them for their beliefs and activism.
Police state America targets them. It brutalizes them. It locks them in cages. It does so for opposing war, resisting injustice, and/or defending freedom, equality and human rights.
In the Vol. 18, 2002 Harvard BlackLetter Law Journal, J. Soffiyah Elijah headlined, "The Reality of Political Prisoners in the United States: What September 11 Taught Us About Defending Them," saying:
In a post-9/11 climate, they "and their lawyers have been targeted for renewed abuse."
Constitutional protections don't matter. Spurious charges override them. Guilt by accusation is policy. Innocence is no defense.
Corrupt prosecutors and hanging judges intimidate juries to convict. Long imprisonments follow. Injustice defines today's America. Lawyers like their clients are vulnerable.
Michael Steven Smith co-hosts WBAI's Law and Disorder. He's a Center for Constitutional Rights board member. He's a lawyer like Lynne. He discussed her sentencing.
On April 9, 2010, she was wrongly indicted. On February 10, 2005, she was convicted on all counts. On October 17, 2006, she was sentenced to 28 months imprisonment.
On November 17, 2009, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit three-judge panel upheld the conviction. It falsely accused her of "knowingly and willfully making false statements."
It redirected her case to District Court Judge John Koeltl. I did so for resentencing. It instructed him to consider enhancements for terrorism, perjury, and abuse of her position as a lawyer. Koeltl was intimidated to comply.
On November 19, 2009, Lynne was interned at MCC-NY. Doing so preceded her transfer to Federal Medical Center (FMC) Carswell, Fort Worth, TX.
On July 15, 2010, Lynne was resentenced to 10 years imprisonment. It was for doing her job honorably, ethically, and heroically for 30 years.
Smith was there. "Judge John Koeltl buried her alive," he said. "We should have seen it coming when he told her to take all the time she needed at the start when she spoke before the sentence was read."
"It didnt matter what she said. He had already written his decision, which he read out loud to a courtroom packed with supporters."
He "laid it on her: 120 months .He had given her a death sentence .She'll never get out."
Lynne's lawyer Jill Shellow Levine asked why so harsh. "He was candid. He was told to do it by his supervisors, the judges on the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit."
It's "an institution for the elite." It's second only to the Supreme Court. It presides over America's financial center. It "makes policy ."
It made an example of Lynne. She's a war on terror victim. Koeltl got his marching orders. He threw the book at her. He nearly quadrupled her sentence.
He put an aging grandmother "on chemotherapy away for ten years and two year's probation after that for good measure."
"This is much more than meanness. It is ideology." It reflects America's dark side. It ravages humanity. It does so for wealth, power, privilege and dominance.
It targets non-believers. It does so unjustly. Lynne's one of countless political prisoners. Societies are best judged by how they treat their most disadvantaged, children and prisoners. America ranks with the worst.
"Understand," she said, "that the attack on me is a subterfuge for an attack on all lawyers who advocate without fear of Government displeasure, with intellectual honesty guided by their knowledge and their client's desire for his or her case."
Over 10,000 supporters worldwide petitioned for her compassionate release. She hopes that "effort can be a crack in the American bastion."
Join others and sign it. Do it because it matters. Spread the word. Urge others to sign. Access it through the following link:
Lynne's gravely ill. Vital surgery was delayed 18 months. Her breast cancer reached Stage Four. It spread to her lymph nodes, shoulder, bones and lungs.
It's treatable. FMC Carswell provides deplorable care. It's unprincipled and unconscionable. Weeks pass to see providers. Results take weeks longer. Treatment involves painfully shackling Lynnes wrists and ankles to beds. Chains connect them.
It's standard practice. It's brutal. It's medieval. It's cruel and unusual punishment. It violates constitutional rights.
Lynne urgently needs proper care. She needs it now. Her condition took a turn for the worse. Her white blood cell count dropped sharply.
She's currently isolated. She'll be sent to a Fort Worth hospital for tests. It's unclear what she'll get there. She's been denied what she needs all along.
America's 1984 Sentencing Act grants prisoner rights. They include reduced sentences "for extraordinary and compelling reasons."
None rise to the level of life threatening illness. Lynne deserves compassionate release. Delay assures death.
The Jericho Movement supports "amnesty and freedom for all political prisoners." It published her family's message. Her husband Ralph is a longtime human rights advocate.
"Lynne Stewart has devoted her life to the oppressed," it said. She's imprisoned for "providing her client(s) with a fearless defense." Doing so reflects "an assault upon the basic freedoms of us all."
"The sinister meaning" of Lynne's imprisonment "is unmistakably clear." It's "a virtual death sentence."
"We cry out against the bureaucratic murder of Lynne Stewart. We demand (her) immediate release to receive urgent medical care in a supportive environment .(We) call upon the Bureau of Prisons to act immediately."
Lynne's struggling to survive. Free her now. Doing the right thing is its own reward. Lynne worked tirelessly for justice. She deserves its full measure and more in her time of need.

Sony has always been a leader in high-value car audio products. This time we are going to have a look at one of their top-selling Xplod Series Class-D monoblock subwoofer amplifiers, the XM-ZZR3301. Rated at 330 watts into 4 ohms, and 600 watts into 2 ohms, the Sony XM-ZZR3301 sells for only $199.95, making it one of the best "watt per dollar" deals available!
The Sony Xplod XM-ZZR3301 amplifier, moderately sized measures about 14" x 11" x 2.25". Stepping away from the traditional rectangular shape, the amplifier brings a bit of style to the mix with the ends of the amplifier being somewhat V shaped, and the upper surface of the cast aluminum heatsink offering some molded-in-design elements that add a touch of class and uniqueness. In the middle of the top of the amp is a large illuminated bar which lights up in a bright blue color when the amp's turned on. All the connections and controls are along one side for ease of installation and adjustment. The connections for power and speakers are made via gold plated Phillips-head screw terminals. The power terminals will accept ring terminals that can be used with 4 or 8 gauge wire, and the amp is fused with
a pair of 30A ATC style fuses.
Four speaker terminals (although it's a single channel, additional terminals are provided to aid in the parallel connection of woofers) will accept 10 gauge bare cable or 8 gauge with the appropriate ring terminals.
High level inputs are also provided if you want to provide signal to the amp from an existing amp or head unit speaker outputs, and these can be used as signal sensing inputs to turn the amp on when no dedicated 12 volt trigger is available. The high level inputs will accommodate amplifier power levels over 100 watts.
Control and adjustment features include what you'd expect; pots for gain, 6Hz-70Hz subsonic filter, +10dB of bass boost, and a 50Hz-300Hz crossover frequency adjustment.
In the interest of long term reliability, there are three different protection modes built into the Sony XM-ZZR3301, a thermal protection circuit first rolls back the power output as heat builds, allowing the music to continue, and a second mode eventually turns the amp off if the temperature becomes too high. Additionally, a short circuit protection mode engages if the speaker wires become shorted to each other or to ground. I also found another protection mode quite by accident during my listening…read on.
A peek inside the XM-ZZR3301 revealed a basic but well
constructed Class-D design. The double sided PCB places all the small signal surface mount parts, like the control IC's, op-amps, and associated circuitry on one side of the board, and all the larger through-hole parts on the opposite side. This method allows the overall PCB to be made smaller without sacrificing area for copper traces. And it has plenty of copper for high current demands, and a heavy copper buss bar is used to augment current delivery to the power supply devices. The power supply itself is relatively robust, using a good quality toroid, and 6600?F of capacitance. The power supply switching devices are made up of six TO220 size Fuji MOSFET's and are easily capable of handling the maximum current demand of the amp.
On the output side of things, the output devices are four N-Channel Fuji MOSFET's and current is supplied via a total of 7000?F of capacitance. There is a large second order output filter to remove the Class-D switching hash from the audio. Overall, the design is clean and very well made.

Among the excitement of the unexpected win by Keselowski at Dover this past weekend, NASCAR officials confirmed that in the 2013, season teams will be allowed to practice at four Sprint Cup tracks of their choosing, in addition to the preseason test at Daytona.
In an effort to cut costs, NASCAR teams were banned in November of 2008 from testing on sanctioned tracks. During the ban, teams have continued testing on non-sanctioned tracks such as the Nashville Superspeedway. Testing on non-sanctioned tracks appears to be futile for teams, and ironically cost the teams more money, as the data obtained is often considered ineffective or irrelevant for the Sprint Cup series. As driver Jimmie Johnson said, "We're all testing at tracks that don't relate. So in a way we're spinning our wheels and kind of wasting funds." (USA Today).
The new policy is met with optimism across the NASCAR community as it will not only redirect the funds being wasted on "spinning wheels" to more useful data, but should prove to be advantageous for the entire sport. With more access to sanctioned tracks for practice, rookie drivers will be able to gain experience, teams will improve their strategies and newcomers will have a chance to enter the sport. This policy has huge implications for the future of NASCAR and the ability of the sport to improve, as practice makes perfect, after all. AM

FBI Continues To Insist There's No Reason For Kim Dotcom To Be Able To See The Evidence Against Him
from the of-course-not dept
Crown lawyer John Pike argued that there was no need for Dotcom to have access because he was not being tried in New Zealand.That's kind of amazing when you think about it. He shouldn't be allowed to even see the evidence against him... even if it might prove that there is no "case for him to answer to in the US." That's what's so troubling about the US position on cases like this one and the O'Dwyer/TVshack case. They seem to assume that it shouldn't be of any concern if they drag someone thousands of miles across oceans to face trumped up charges in the US.
The judge in the extradition case needed only to decide if there was a case for him to answer in the US, Mr Pike said, and that question was answered by the record of case.

There is something eternally inviting about a simple butter cake packed with spicy warmth. This is such a cake. It's just a good honest cake that is lovely to tuck into alongside a nice mug of tea.
You can vary the spices to suit your tastes but I stuck with cinnamon, nutmeg and mixed spice. Spooning different spices into the cake bowl always makes me feel like a sorceress (some may say 'witch' was a better description!) concocting a potion – I think it's all the little jars and a teaspoon of one, half a teaspoon of another etc. It's practically alchemy!
I added a sugar topping to the cake; the original recipe didn't have one. Sugar sprinkled on top and allowed to bake into the cake is delicious and gives an extra texture to the cake – an almost crumbly crust.
Many people describe cakes like this as a "cut and come again cake" and it's the perfect description. There's no messy filling, it's easy to eat, doesn't need anything with it and is packed with flavour. Plus, how easy is it to make? Look at how brief the recipe instructions are!
300g plain flour
225g caster sugar
1 ½ teaspoons bicarbonate of soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon mixed spice
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
100g unsalted butter, melted
350ml buttermilk
2 eggs
Optional topping: 3 tablespoons brown sugar (I used cinnamon infused sugar)
How to make:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan oven 160°C/350°F/Gas mark 4.
- Line a 20cm springform cake tin with baking paper making sure that the paper comes up 2-3cm above the top of the tin.
- Place all the dry ingredients (i.e. the first seven items on the list) in a bowl and mix.
- To the dry ingredients add the melted butter, buttermilk and eggs and beat until smooth and combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared tin and bake for approximately 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out cleanly. Mine took 50 minutes.
- Leave to cool, in the tin, on a wire rack until cold enough to handle. Then remove the tin and leave to cool completely.
- Bask in glory at the wonderful thing you have made.
- Eat.
