Back in 1968, Harman introduced the Infinity brand. Although we haven't hit any sort of anniversary milestone, the company doesn't seem to want to wait to introduce the Infinity Reference Series.
That new lineup includes two bookshelf speakers, two floorstanding speakers, two center channels, one surround, and two subwoofers. Each speaker has 1-inch CMMD tweeters with advanced waveguides, CMMD woofers with tuned-port enclosures, and patented Hemispherical Soundfield Technology (HST).
The R152 is a two-way bookshelf speaker with a 5.25-inch driver, a 1-inch dome tweeter, and an MSRP of $399.95 per pair. The R162 is a slightly larger bookshelf option, with a 6.25-inch driver and a $499.95 price tag for the pair.
Next up, we have a pair of floorstanding loudspeakers. The R253 is a three-way speaker with two 5.25-inch woofers, a 5.25-inch flat-piston midrange, a 1-inch dome tweeter, and an MSRP of $899.95 per pair. Also sold in pairs, the R263 bumps the woofers up to 6.5 inches, with a price of $1,099.95.
The RC252 is a 2.5-way center-channel speaker with two 5.25-inch woofers, a 1-inch CMMD tweeter, and an MSRP of $349.95 each. The RC263 has a pair of the 6.5-inch woofers, a 4-inch CMMD flat-piston midrange, and a 1-inch tweeter. That one sells for $499.95.
The last in the new speaker lineup is the RS152 on-wall surround. Sold in pairs, this two-way model has a rear-facing 5.25-inch woofer, two 1-inch tweeters, integrated keyhole slots for wall-mounting, and an MSRP of $499.95.
To round out the Reference Series, Infinity is also including two powered subwoofers. The SUB R10 has a 200-watt RMS amplifier, a 10-inch woofer, and a $499.95 price tag. The SUB R12 has a 300-watt amp and a 12-inch woofer for $599.95.
"More than 45 years ago, the Infinity brand blended aeronautical-based design with state-of-the-art audio technology. It turned heads even then," said Michael Mauser, president of Harman's lifestyle division. "Now, Infinity has returned with the all-new Infinity Reference series of loudspeakers destined to, once again, redefine your listening experience with Ceramic Metal Matrix Diaphragm cone technology and our most advanced waveguide to date."
Shipping with black wood grain finish cabinetry, each Infinity Reference is designed and engineered in Northridge, California. All nine models are available now.

It's not insignificant that one of Taylor Swift's key influences is Shania Twain; both have a passion for pop that ultimately outranks their crush on country. And just as Twain released a pop-centric version of her album Up!, Swift's Red marks her definitive move to mainstream pop. Among the co-producers and co-writers are Max Martin and Shellback, the Swedes who hit big with everyone from Katy Perry to Britney Spears, and the decidedly pop-focused approach of songs like "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and the title track make it clear that Swift has more than Nashville on her mind. The steel guitar swoops and acoustic axes on closing cut "Begin Again" create one of the few overtly country moments here, but Red is really the sound of Swift shifting to pure pop mode.

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen — sure, they're the most popular baby names of 2012. But they're also the names of the flying reindeer made famous in that classic Christmas poem — and song. I love that song.
Actually, I love all Christmas music, and I've already started listening. It feels like ages since I heard about wassailing, figgy pudding, French hens and other things that don't really exist.

It's not every day you get to share your birthday with a prince, let alone over 60 other people who share the same birth date as you.
A Kiwiana-themed birthday was held this afternoon at Government House for Prince Charles and 64 Kiwis who were born today.
Prime Minister John Key's wife Bronagh and Governor-General Sir Jerry Mateparae also celebrated their birthday today.
Prince Charles turned 64 today and was thrilled to hear the Beatles classic When I'm 64, played by the Royal New Zealand Air Force Band and sung by opera singer Margaret Medlyn.
He bopped along to the famous tune, and pulled a face when the line "will you still need me, will you still feed me" was sung.
Sir Jerry said hosting the Prince on his birthday during the royal visit was "the icing on the cake".
He said the idea to invite 64 Kiwis who shared the same birthday had ended up being an inspiration.
He joked that quite a few people had tried to sneak into the ballot selection for the birthday bash, even when their birthdays were on the wrong day.
"There was one person who tried it on - their birthday was in March."
The Prince was treated to the Maori version of Happy Birthday, followed by the English version.
It wasn't the first time he had been sung Happy Birthday today; many people who lined the Wellington waterfront earlier had broken out in song.
The birthday cake was Kiwiana-themed and was made up of 64 smaller cakes to make a larger grid, allowing each of the 64 guests to take their "slice" of the cake away with them.
The cake was decorated with Kiwiana icons - a buzzy bee, sheep, gumboots, jandals, paua shells, fantails, pavlova with kiwifruit and a giant lamington.
Paul Roberts of Wellington celebrated his birthday today with the Prince, and said if he hadn't been at Government House he would have been out diving for paua or crayfish on Wellington's south coast. He said the oysters at the birthday bash made up for it.
"It's the first time I've had a birthday quite like this. I had a chat to Prince Charles, it was really nice.
"I'm a big fan of the environmental work he does and mentioned that to him. He was surprised I had heard about it. He said he was scared it was getting a bit late and people need to really start acting and look after our environment a bit better," said Mr Roberts.
Billy Stackhouse from Ashburton turned 18 today and said he talked to Prince Charles about finishing school this month.
"It was a very good birthday present," he said.
Elizabeth Brown, 50, also from Ashburton talked to the Prince about the earthquakes in Canterbury.
"It was awesome to celebrate my birthday with Charles and Camilla. Government House was a wonderful place to celebrate your birthday," she said.
Elizabeth King from Palmerston North celebrated her birthday and brought her mother Susan Brader from Masterton with her. She said the cake was delicious.
Guests dined on green lip mussel fritters, whitebait omelettes with buttered rewana bread and Marmite and cheese scrolls.
The oldest guest, Mary Crosby from Ngaio, turned 101 today.
Earlier in the day Prince Charles was shown around Wellington's Weta Workshop by Hobbit director Sir Peter Jackson and Weta head Sir Richard Taylor.
Actor Mark Hadlow, who plays the dwarf Dori in the upcoming film, spent two hours getting into costume and make-up, including a prosthetic dwarf nose, for Prince Charles' visit.
Hadlow was completely in character when Prince Charles entered the room, kneeling down on one knee before the royal.
"I offer myself at the request of Sir Peter Jackson for you to command as you see fit, your servant Dori," he said.
A beaming Prince Charles was clearly amused by the gesture.
"I can't tell you how grateful I am - the best birthday present I've had in a long time," he said.
Hadlow jokingly replied he had to dress up or he would "get beaten by Sir Peter".

Here's Proof That Most Dogs Can't Resist a Water Sprinkler
I have an automatic water sprinkler at my house. Occasionally, I forget that it might be on when I let my dogs out to do their business. In doing so, they attack the sprinkler head like it's a chew toy. In fact, my small boxer, Katana, even dug around a few of the sprinklers like the little mutt she is (said lovingly). Apparently my dogs are not the only ones that can't resist the coolest (literally) entertainment a dog can do. Watch as these dogs go off on these sprinklers.

The way Devin has played the past few weeks has to make everyone feel infinitely times better about the QB situation next year.
November 12th, 2012 at 8:52 AM ^
I very much agree, and especially so when we're talking about a guy who was reportedly taking no reps at the position just a few short weeks ago and has, in two starts, accumulated stats which amount to a 172.09 rating at QB. If he qualified statistically for the actual NCAA Division I leaderboard, he would be the second-highest rated QB right now, between Marcus Mariota and Tajh Boyd.
November 12th, 2012 at 9:21 AM ^
Wow... That's a great stat. While e is not playing bama, etc. I think Minnesota and northwestern (moreso northwestern) are quality teams that we can draw conclusions from about how good devin Gardner is and will be.
November 12th, 2012 at 3:44 AM ^
from that team down south, sans the tattoos and awful attitude. Devin is probably a better passer and a bit less dynamic of a runner but still can do some great things with his legs when needed.
I would expect Borges to incorporate a few more designed runs next year when we have an available, competent backup QB. (This is meant as no knock on Bellomy.....I get the feeling neither he nor Denard were really game-ready healthwise the last 2 weeks.)
November 12th, 2012 at 4:02 AM ^
I thought Devin's pass on the deep out to Roundtree was the best throw by a Michigan QB since the Henne/Mallett year.
November 12th, 2012 at 5:36 AM ^
It's funny how much I got used to Threet/Sheridan, Forcier, and Denard I forgot what a Michigan pocket passer used to look like. Not meaning that in a bad way.
Some of those throws were just excellently placed like at 6:33 or the touchdown to Funchess at the 7:20 mark or even the throw at 8:55 where he threaded the needle although it was a bit dangerous.
I have been frustrated in a game or two when Denard has targeted Funchess and has failed to realize he's a monster and has thrown it where a normal human being would have their hands rather than about a foot higher where he should have been throwing it.
It's going to be tough if Denard remains hurt through the Iowa game and Devin plays really well to put Denard back in as the starter for The Game...especially coming off injury.
Did people on here notice when he chest bumped Devin after one of the TDs he grabbed his arm immediately?
November 12th, 2012 at 6:38 AM ^
Has anybody noticed there was a second M guy (#10) near the intercepted pass that was clearly going to have a big catch & run if Devin threw to him? Just saying.
November 12th, 2012 at 7:43 AM ^
Speaking of the other Devin, it was nice to see Funchess blocking on the OT bootleg TD run. What a player that guy is going to be.
November 12th, 2012 at 7:56 AM ^
I thought the same thing when I saw Denard and Devin chest bump at first, but at second glance he was actually reaching for the headphone that was about to fall off!
November 12th, 2012 at 8:03 AM ^
Loved the Prater sighting
November 12th, 2012 at 11:00 AM ^
Someone tweeted that at Ace and Heiko during the game. I just saw it when I was cutting it up and felt that I had to include it. Just like I kept in the Devin/Devin celebration after their touchdown because I liked it, and kept the NW celebration in after the INT because #67 comes up and hits Schofield on the helmet, which I thought was something. Schofield certainly showed more restraint than I would have been able to show.
November 12th, 2012 at 9:00 AM ^
One of my big concerns about Gardner coming into this season was his decision making ability. It seemed like he tried to force things whether it was the run or passes down the field. It looks like he has matured a lot as far as knowing when to run, knowing his receivers, or even taking a sack. He has been nothing short of a revelation in the absence of Denard.
EDIT: To add, I'm not saying I doubted him, but based off SSS, he didn't look great. He has looked fantastic for the most part these last two games.
November 12th, 2012 at 10:10 AM ^
After watching DG for 2 games now, the offense next year will be ok. Not great, but solid I think. I don't think he's lit the world on fire the last 2 weeks, but it has gone better than expected for a guy who hasn't even practiced at QB in weeks. Imagine when DG gets more reps and experience at QB. The throws that were late or off target will improve because he will be more comfortable back there and more in tune with his wrs.
November 12th, 2012 at 10:13 AM ^
Great stuff. His pocket presence is remarkably good. Also, I'd kill for Denard to scramble as much as Gardner does.
November 12th, 2012 at 10:25 AM ^
You have to be impressed with the way Gardner has led the team. I'd guess he has had very limited time in practice at QB all year. Give Denard a snap or two next week closing out his career at Mich but Gardner is the QB. Put Denard in positions that he can be a threat every time Michigan snaps the ball. He is one amazing athlete. Let's see what he does. He isn't going to play QB at the next level.
November 12th, 2012 at 10:28 AM ^
It will certainly be a courageous, if not painfully obvious decision to play Devin over Denard in the last two games.
IMO, Devin (admittedly small sample size) is a much better QB than Denard. Will Hoke play Denard over Devin if healthy?
This, to me, looms as a major question to end the season.
In one way, it's very easy.
On the other hand...
November 12th, 2012 at 12:41 PM ^
I have been impressed with DG, but I wanted to take a look at all his throws and see where he needed to improve, how many bad throws he had, and how many of his incompletions were actually good plays. Here's the result:
- 13 incomplete passes
- 2 drops
- 2 batted passes at the line (one of which was a GREAT play)
- 2 throw aways (one of which avoided a safety)
- 1 "safe" throw (put it where only his WR could get it; WR didn't have enough separation so it was caught out of bounds)
- 1 ball that was overthrown (end zone to Gallon) but still catchable
Of his 13 incomplete passes, 8 were good plays. 5 were not:
- 1 Bad decision that should have been an INT (into triple-coverage in the middle of the field)
- 2 underthrown passes, one of them late
- 1 overthrown pass
He also had one throw that wasn't very good, but was still caught (Gallon's long reception; the throw was late and underthrown...should have been a TD).
So in 29 attempts, he had a total of 6 poor throws. 2 of those were really bad choices, 3 were underthrown (two of those were late) and was overthrow.
That means that 79.3% of his passes were good throws, and if you add the completion to Gallon (which was still good enough to be a catch) the number jumps to 82.8%. Anything over 80% is very good for a college quarterback. I haven't charted Denard, but would guess he is im the 60-70% range.
Now, the question is: can he do this against a better defense? Perhaps we'll find out this year, but what we can sleep comfortably knowing is that he is already making very good decisions (hardest thing for a QB to do) and should only get better with experience and an offseason of being "the guy."
The future is bright.
November 12th, 2012 at 4:53 PM ^
In looking at just the Devin plays, one thing i've noticed is that a chunk of those incompletions are pretty difficult timing throws with receivers headed towards the sideline. I think there were at least three against NW that the throw coming a split second earlier means a completion.
His problem at this point is being a little late with the throw, whether it means the receiver doesn't have room to make the catch or it allows the safety to come over to the ball. But i also figure this to be a problem that goes away with experience and comfort.
November 12th, 2012 at 5:01 PM ^
The late throw thing should improve with experience. The thing that is so encouraging is how good his decision-making is. If all he has to do is learn to throw a little earlier, he's going to be lights out.
This is a guy who could play QB at the next level.

Baseball gets milestone 4-1 win against West Virginia behind Foley's complete game
The Central Michigan baseball program earned its 2,000 win when it started the Snowbird Classic strong with a 4-1 win against West Virginia on Friday.
Sophomore Jordan Foley continued his winning ways, improving to 3-0 this season and pitching a complete game to begin the tournament in Port Charlotte, Fla.
The right-hander recorded four strikeouts and two walks, allowing one run on seven hits in the game.
With a 3-1 lead in the top of the fourth, freshman Zack Fields tacked on another run with the first home run of his career.
In the first, the Regnier brothers again worked together to put the Chippewas on the board, with freshman Logan up first in the line-up and getting on base with a single.
Sophomore Pat MacKenzie followed with a single of his own up the right side, and then advanced to second on the thrown.
That's when the older Regnier, Nick, flied out to right field to bring his brother home giving CMU a 1-0 lead early in the game.
Another RBI immediately followed before the Mountaineers were able to get their third out when Fields went down swinging.
The game stayed quiet until the third inning when bats started heating up again, with sophomore Alec Ornelas hitting a triple to right field and scoring later when MacKenzie drove in a run.
The third was when WVU got on the board, scoring its only run on a wild pitch.
Two errors by the Mountaineers in the six allowed the Chippewas to load the bases, but CMU was unable to take advantage of the mistakes.
WVU went down 1-2-3 in the bottom of the sixth, with the first two batters grounding out, followed by a foul out.
The Chippewas did the same in the top of the seventh, with Ornelas striking out swinging, Logan flying out to left, and MacKenzie popping up to shortstop.
The Mountaineers were never able to mount a comeback, with Foley and his defense keeping their opponents off the bases.
The Chippewas are back in action for game two of the classic at 1 p.m. on Saturday against Chicago State.
Senior Patrick Kaminska will get the start for CMU.

Caltrain Eight-ride Addiction
A consequence of the new job is I can finally get Commuter Checks, which allow me to buy transit tickets with "pre-tax" income. Considering as well I'll be working from home a lot less (I was around 1-2 times per week) and at least initially riding SF2G in less, surely it's time for a Caltrain monthly pass rather than my usual practice of getting 8-ride tickets. It's time to become one of the big-boy train commuters, right?
The fare chart shows that a monthly pass for 3-zones is $159, while an 8-ride is $40.75. So the monthly costs as much as 31.25 rides. in other words, if you ride 16 round trips or more, the monthly is the deal.
Sure, there's other factors. For example the monthly ticket is more convenient: just carry it with you and forget about it until asked to show it to a conductor. But there's a downside as well. The 8-ride needs to be validated every day, so it's part of my routine. On the other hand, the monthly needs to be renewed on the first of the month. Since that comes infrequently, it's far more likely to forget to renew the monthly pass than it is to forget to punch an 8-ride. There's a grace period through noon of the first workday of the month, but still, the cost of error is potentially high: a citation in excess of $200. I've never forgotten to punch an 8-ride ticket.
Then there's loss. If I lose my ticket permanently, assuming loss is rate, it will on average tend to have around half its value at the time of loss. Half of a monthly is four times half of an 8-ride. The new Clipper cards change things here as well, however: Clipper cards may be replaced with a fee.
For temporary loss, if I arrive at a station without my ticket or Clipper card costs me essentially nothing. With a monthly, I've got to buy one-ways for the day, and that's a total loss. I don't lose tickets much but I have forgotten to take them with me to the station. Again this calculus may change with Clipper cards: I don't know how one-way and day passes for the single-time train rider (like a tourist, for example) will be handled. But even if I can't buy an 8-ride without my card and need to get one-ways instead, the cost is only the difference between the 8-ride and day-pass fare (two one-ways), while for a monthly, I eat the full day pass fare.
Okay, so I can deal with these. Maybe I expect to misplace my ticket one day per month. Then the break-even point becomes more like 17 days instead of 16. I'll not worry about the ticket loss factor, since I assume that becomes obsolete with Clipper.
Then there's sick days. Maybe I average one sick day every other month. So that's an extra half-day on the threshold: 17.5.
Then there's bike commuting. If I bike in one day per week, which I hope to do, that takes the threshold up to 18 rides.
November has 22 weekdays. Two, Thanksgiving and the day after, are company holidays. That leaves 20 weekdays. Twenty is more than 18, so I should get that monthly (barely).
But I haven't gotten any commuter checks yet. Unless I get it before the first of the month, I'll need to buy that pass on post-tax income. If I then get it during the month, I'll have lost the opportunity to buy tickets during the month pre-tax. On the other hand, if i get 8-rides, I'll be able to take advantage of the pre-tax fare within a week of receiving my commuter check.
So for November, unless I get that first commuter check within a few days (and I think I need to wait an extra biweekly pay period), I'm better off with 8-rides.
Then December. The company shuts down for two weeks in December (forcing employees to take vacation time if they have it, so I'll take time-without-pay, since I won't). So December is obviously a monthly pass loser.
January: January has a holiday, leaving 20 work days. So this is more than my 18 day threshold. Then February has 20 work days as well. So maybe I want monthlies for each of these months. March has 23 work days so that's really the first month which seems like a clear-cut win.
But suppose I'm on an 8-ride ticket for December, then January rolls along. I want to stop using 8-rides and start using monthlies. But it's unlikely that my last 8-ride will run empty just at the last commute of December. I'll likely have some rides left, and with Clipper, these rides aren't easily transferred (paper tickets with residual value I could perhaps sell, at least in theory). 8-rides expire after six weeks, so I can't save the unused rides for future use if I'm doing at least two consecutive monthlies. So at the end of December I need to decide that I'll go to monthlies in January and go to day passes or one-ways instead after my last 8-ride expires. This is additional cost.
It's all a complicated game. And the game becomes more complicated if you consider I'll need to take some business trips on this job. The monthly pass just doesn't seem like a financial win unless weekend service becomes useful (I've ridden the weekend train only a few times since they last reduced weekend service) that I can offset some of my monthly cost with weekend trips.
Really with Clipper this could all be solved with a simplified fare schedule: you first rides of the month are at full fare, then after you've done a certain number (for example four) you go to a discounted fare, then after you've completed a second threshold (for example 32) the rest of the rides in that month are free. Then there's be no need to play these probability games.
So how to set these fares? It would be fun to suggest some sort of exponential decay function for fares, but I defer to an attraction to mathematical simplicity. So I propose a 2-tier price system. First, riders pay a higher rate for tickets until they get up to the level of a typical day-pass rider. Then they get a discounted fare which results in a typical 8-rider passenger paying the same as they do now. Nobody commuting 20 days per month should pay more than the present monthly.
So let's say the average day-passer rides 4 round trips per month. Then 3-zone tickets should be $6 each for the first 8 tickets you buy: $48 total (two tickets/round-trip). Then let's say a typical 8-ride passenger rides 12 times per month, paying close to $120 for those 12 rides, or $72 for round trips 5-12, yielding $3/ticket. Then if you ride 20 times in a month, that's 40 tickets, eight at $6 each, and 32 at $3 each, totaling $144. If you ride 22 times per month that's $156. A monthly pass (3-zone) is presently $159. So it works out fairly closely.
So there it is: 3-zone tickets @ $6 each ($12/round trip) for the first eight tickets (four round-trips), then $3 each ($6 per round trip) after that. Much simpler. For other zones, adjust accordingly ($1.75/zone for first eight tickets, $0.875/zone, rounded, thereafter).
Surely they'll do something like this once liberated from the capabilities of paper tickets.

Why not an EZ Pass system with a set fare which is deducted from your account only each time you actually ride? That would address several of the more challenging aspects of the game as you describe it.

I think you're rather hopeful that such a sensible systems (monthly caps etc) will happen, London's had oyster cards for 7 years now and they still have the same gaming problem with what tickets/passes to buy although at least there's a daily cap when it works.

Smart ticketless systems could also encourage more local trips by making the zone system more equitable to people who live near zone boundaries. Zones could be dynamic based on distance traveled. Or the current zone system could be kept with a discount added for a short trips that happen to cross a zone boundary. As it is now, both in terms of fare structure and frequency of trains, caltrain favors long distance commutting.
My wife commutes from San Bruno (zone 1) to a business close to the Millbrae caltrain (zone 2). Although caltrain is faster, taking the bus is much cheaper and busses run more frequently. It's ironic that we have tracks and train stops practically from our house to her work yet surface streets are more desirable. In the early part of last century there was a 3rd option: light rail tracks used to parallel the caltrain tracks down to Burlingame.
Caltrain from San Bruno to Millbrae (2 miles of track): $4.25
Caltrain from San Francisco to Redwood City (25 miles of track per http://app.strava.com/rides/197374): $4.25
On the flip side, Caltrain from San Bruno to SF is a great deal at $2.50, and this is visibly evident in the mornings: the NB tracks always have a lot more commuters than SB.
As for myself, I bike the 2.2 miles to Millbrae to have more train selection and make my rides cheaper: http://app.strava.com/rides/213140
Which could be seen as a downside to Caltrain expending more effort to cater to cyclists: freeloaders like me who use the bike to game the zone system...

I completely agree with you, Ammon. BART doesn't use zones, for example: they're an artifact of paper tickets. Although BART doesn't really offer volume discounts, either, so I hope Caltrain doesn't emulate BART too strongly.

(Feb. 17, 2006) - A three-run home run by junior catcher Justin Aughey (Davie, Fla.) and a solo blast off the bat of senior centerfielder Stephen Douglas (Kennesaw, Ga.) highlighted a five-run seventh inning for State baseball, as the Buccaneers took a 9-4 win over Xavier Friday afternoon at Howard Johnson Field.
With the win, ETSU takes the series from the Musketeers, winning two of three and improving to 4-3 on the season. Meanwhile, Xavier drops to 1-2.
The Buccaneers broke through first in the bottom of the third inning, scoring two runs off Xavier starting pitcher Mike Lucas. Designated hitter Matt Traylor (
Xavier answered back to tie the game at 2-2 with single runs in the top of the fourth and the top of the sixth. The first run came on a solo home run by designated hitter Dan Hayden in the fourth, and the second came after a pair of Buccaneer errors allowed Brewer to reach third base in the sixth. He later scored on a double play ground ball off the bat of Hayden.
The Bucs regained the lead at 4-2 in bottom of the sixth when senior first baseman Blake Church (
But in the bottom of the seventh, the Bucs took command. ETSU scored first when Xavier reliever Brett Greenwell balked to score Courtney. Then, after a walk to Church, Aughey sent his blast over the left field wall to give the Bucs an 8-4 advantage.
While ETSU starter Ryan Howe (
At the plate, Aughey led the way with a pair of hits and three RBIs, while Courtney was 3-of-5 with two runs scored. Lee finished with a hit and two RBIs. For Xavier, Roberts, Hayden and Adam Lipski each had two hits.
State baseball will return to action at Georgia Tech on Tuesday at For more on the Bucs, visit ETSUBucs.com.

David Beckham has joined Paris Saint-Germain, and will be donating his salary to a children's charity.
The 37-year-old former England captain was presented at a news conference Thursday at the French club's Parc des Princes stadium. The club said he signed a five-month deal.
PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi says "we're very happy to welcome David Beckham to Paris Saint-Germain. He will be joining for five months until 30 June."
During that time, Beckham says his salary will go to a Paris children's charity.
PSG is the latest stop in Beckham's glamorous career, which has seen him win titles with Manchester United, Real Madrid and the Los Angeles Galaxy. Beckham ended his six-year stint in the U.S. last month.

Major Areas of Research
- Mechanisms of vaccine protection against retroviral infection
- Chronic retroviral infections: immunological control, regulatory T cells, immunomodulation, and therapeutics
- Mechanisms of genetic resistanc to retroviral disease
Program Description
Our research is aimed at understanding host responses to retroviral infections. We use mice infected with Friend murine leukemia virus as a model to study basic immunology. A special interest is in chronic infections, including how chronic infections are established and maintained and developing strategies to prevent and treat them. Using this model, we discovered that viruses can subvert the suppressive nature of regulatory T cells to evade immunological destruction by CD8+ T cells. We also use "humanized" mice, mice that contain human immune systems, as a model to study immune responses to HIV infection and to help us determine basic mechanisms of vaccine protection against acute and chronic retroviral infections. The goal of these studies is to develop new ideas for HIV vaccines and therapies.
Dr. Hasenkrug received his Ph.D. in cell biology from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 1991 and conducted his postdoctoral research in the laboratory of Dr. Bruce Chesebro at the Rocky Mountain Laboratories. In 1998, he established an independent laboratory to study retroviral immunology and mechanisms of vaccine protection. A special focus of his work has been the study of establishment and maintenance of chronic infections and virus escape. Dr. Hasenkrug serves as an affiliated associate professor at Montana State University and the University of Montana and as a scientific advisor for the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative.

are these dowsing rods, and how do they work?
Posted 07 August 2011 - 09:13 PM

Regarding them being "bad", that sounds fishy to me. While not everyone has immediate success using them, they are simply indicators. Unless you mutilated them in some way simply holding them and getting an erroneous spin is not going to harm them in any way.

Well, thanks again!I seemed to be bumping into you a lot! If I may ask, how did you use them to locate buried objects? Did they spin, or cross? There was a pamphlet that this person gave me; you are supposed to ask permission to a spirit to ask questions; if they cross, it is a no, if they diverge, a yes? Have you heard of that before? I do not dare try it myself...I feel selfconscious just asking the question...
The communication aspect of it I don't have any belief in. Regarding how they work at finding buried objects I believe it is not the rods but the user who causes the effect. The rods are simply the indicator allowing you to see the results. As to whether they cross or spread depends on the direction of the field.
I believe the Earth's fields are the actual source. Many objects, even that which is buried in some way alters the direction or strength of the fields as they pass by. For instance water has a different density than say dirt. If we suppose the water is underground the field will be altered when it passes near the water table.
As the dowser walks above his body will respond to this slight change in the field. The response is very subtle; unless he is careful he will compensate for the change thereby nullifying any reaction. So a successful dowser has the ability to hold the rods and essentially become disconnected from them. By that I mean not consciously influence their movement at all. He clears his mind and simply balances the rods so they remain straight ahead yet almost to the point where they will swing.
As he walks through this field his body reacts to the field around him. The reaction may cause the dowser to slightly shift positions to compensate for the effects of the field changes. This will unbalance the rods causing the swing. It can be seen how critical the state of mind becomes though. Unless the dowser can free his body of any conscious response the field will not cause the reaction and dowsing will fail. This is the skill aspect of dowsing; most can learn it but absolute control over your body is required. Some adapt better than others; a few never develop the control needed.
This is also why I don't subscribe to the spirit communication aspect. There is no evidence spirits even alter the fields, and even if they did then it would be the presence, not any response by them which would be detected. Spirits are not believed to be physical bodies and as such likely would not have any effect on the Earth's fields. We would need to identify and prove a method of interaction before I could accept that dowsing and spirits are related.

The rods cross when the item is located.
I have only ever used wire hangers.
It is really cool when they just cross as you're walking.
I meant to add that I've never used them for spirit communication.
Posted 11 August 2011 - 02:17 AM
I've seen them used in paranormal investigations where people ask yes and no questions and base their answers but I'm skeptical in regards to that. But I have seen them used successfully to find water and I'm in the same field as CaveRat and believe they only detect changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
Posted 23 November 2011 - 12:34 AM
From what CaveRat has said, not complicated at all! That was my first thoughts before I started asking for advice. Thanks CaveRat, as soon as I locate those wire hangers I'll be out there in the front yard.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Car Dealership Dropped Job Offer After Drug Test Results Revealed Use of Prescription Meds, EEOC Charged
HONOLULU – The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) today announced the settlement of a lawsuit filed against Valley Isle Motors Ltd, a Maui-based car dealership, resulting in a $32,500 payment to a job applicant and other relief to remedy alleged disability discrimination.
In its lawsuit (EEOC v. Valley Isle Motors, Ltd., Case No. CV09-0053 HG KSC), the EEOC asserted that the car dealership reneged on an offer to hire a job applicant as a salesperson only after a urine test revealed he was taking prescribed medication. Valley Isle Motors then erroneously perceived the applicant as too disabled to do the job despite normal medical test results and medical authorization to the contrary, the EEOC said.
The EEOC argued that the conduct was in direct violation of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). The EEOC originally filed the lawsuit in February 2009 on the applicant's behalf after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement.
The parties entered into a three-year consent decree, approved yesterday by the U.S. District Court, District of Hawaii. The consent decree requires that Valley Isle Motors implement an internal policy, procedures and staff training to safeguard against disability discrimination. The car dealership must also submit annual reports to the EEOC to track future complaints of disability bias and requests for disability-related accommodations during the hiring process.
"Employers cannot make assumptions about a prospective employee's ability to work," said Anna Y. Park, regional attorney for the EEOC's Los Angeles District Office. "The ADA expressly prohibits that stereotypes of this nature weigh into the decision to hire or deny hire to an individual."
Timothy Riera, director of the EEOC's Honolulu Local Office, added, "Employers should heed the lesson learned by Valley Isle Motors and be mindful to judge a candidate by his or her qualifications, not some ill-informed presumption. Communication with prospective employees is the key in determining whether one's actual or perceived condition will interfere with work. Businesses should take advantage of appropriate training opportunities that are available to learn how to appropriately engage in that interactive process."
The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws against employment discrimination. Further information is available at www.eeoc.gov.

In response to "Survey says: Split persists over new translation" (News Analysis, May 4), we asked readers of OSV Newsweekly's e-newsletter to share their thoughts on the Mass translation that debuted in 2011. We were overwhelmed by the responses we got, many of which we have reprinted here. To join in on the conversation, and for early online access to content from the Newsweekly, subscribe to our one-page e-newsletter by going to OSV.com/more/enewsletters.
There are many things that I like about the restored translation. I like that it's closer to the Latin ("and with your spirit," for example). I also like that things that were inexplicably cut from the liturgy have been put back (we can say "through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault" again, and missing bits of the Gloria have been restored).
But I often do find myself having to read the collect, prayer over the gifts and/or the closing prayer more than once during most Masses. Often they are composed of one long sentence with one or more clauses separated by commas, and it can be hard to understand what they mean on the first reading. Other than that, no complaints at all.
— droolbritannia
I am very pleased with the restoration and would like to see people encouraged to take the host on the tongue rather than grabbing the Body of Christ in their hand and chewing like a cow chews a cud. Reverence for the Mass has waned for decades, and Pope Benedict was instrumental in encouraging reverence to be welcomed back.
— snowperson
I especially like the "And with your spirit" response we give to the priest after he says "The Lord be with you." I am in my 50s and feel sadness when I recall how the sacredness I felt in church in my early years was jettisoned by many in the late 1960s and '70s. Apparently they wanted us thinking more of "us" which, of course, leads us to think less of "him." "And also with you" as our response to the priest sounded way too much like a "and how are you, today?" answer. I thank Our Blessed Lord for the new translations and hope we continue to move in his direction.
— mikeroberts070411
There are many changes I love, particularly the restoration of the wording during the Communion: "I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed." I loved those words as a child and am thrilled to be saying them again.
However there are some struggles. In the Creed the word "consubstantial" is a very ecclesial word. "One in being" is very clear to almost anyone. One of the changes to the vernacular after Vatican II was to make the prayers understandable to all. That one misses the boat.
— Patricelynn
I think the new translation is beautiful and has great rhythm. I grew up with the Spanish translation of the Mass (which is figuratively inches away from the Latin version), so when I used to listen to the old English translation (which was figuratively feet, if not yards, away from the Latin text), I always found it unpoetic and not quite right. Now the language is as it should be, both elevated and elevating, both precise and poetic. We now actually ask that our beloved be welcome into the light of God's face. We ask that the Holy Spirit come upon the Gifts like dew-fall. The language now echoes the biblical text. As a lay church-goer, I am happy with the changes; they go a long way to making the Mass more beautiful, which, in my opinion, brings us a bit closer to the Lord.
Love the new translations. Our priest and staff did a great job of preparing the parish. It was work, and I know our priest was uncomfortable with the changes — especially the singing. But now he is at ease and it shows in the attention of his people and how much holier our approach is to the Eucharist. For myself, I have learned more in the last three years than in the previous 25. It has been a real blessing to have a priest who does his best to follow the Church's instructions. The sheep need faithful shepherds.
I think the new translation does not flow well when trying to read it. I think a significant amount of the translation is less understandable to children and a lot of our population. I think the words in the liturgy should bring understanding and meaning to what we believe and pray.

Childress Reveals Specifics for 2012 Season
Despite being unable to come to contract terms with driver Clint Bowyer, who announced last Friday that he will drive beginning in 2012 for Michael Waltrip Racing, Richard Childress said Thursday that he could not be more pleased with the future direction in which his company appears to be headed.
Speaking after a function where he appeared together with Bowyer to promote an upcoming special paint scheme on the No. 33 Chevrolet Bowyer currently drives for Richard Childress Racing, Childress said he tentatively plans to scale down from four full-time Sprint Cup teams to three full-time teams in 2012. But he did not rule out running a fourth car, Bowyer's vacated No. 33, in at least a handful of races -- possibly with his grandson, Austin Dillon, behind the wheel.
Childress also did not completely rule out fielding the No. 33 car full-time. This season RCR fields not only that car, but also the No. 29 driven by Kevin Harvick, the No. 31 driven by Jeff Burton and the No. 27 driven by Paul Menard.
"Right now we're looking at three Cup cars with an occasional Cup race [in the 33]. Who knows what may come up between now and then?" Childress said. "I've had offers to race people and race drivers, and had another full sponsorship for a driver. I just want to make sure it's the right move when we make it. So we're still as of right now three Cup teams.
"I'm sure if we don't have a [full-time] team, we might stick Austin in the car one or two times. We've got a couple other people who have said they might like to run. If it's the right opportunity, as far as chance to test something or take a look at a driver or something, we may do that. ... I'd rather have three teams that you can be competitive with -- and occasionally pick up a race or two along the way, where if you've got something you want to try, you go and do it."
Asked specifically if the primary order of business at RCR right now is trying to obtain sponsorship for Austin Dillon's 2012 Nationwide ride and Austin's younger brother Ty in the Camping World Truck Series, Childress replied: "We're down the road pretty good with all of that. Like I've said, we feel pretty good about how RCR is positioned for the future with the sponsors we have for the next two or three years. I couldn't be happier with a lot of things in front of RCR as far as sponsorship-wise and employee-wise and just the overall direction of the company."
Earlier last week, it was announced that the General Mills sponsorship that had been on the No. 33 car will be moving to Burton's No. 31 Chevy beginning next season. Childress said he was pleased to be able to keep General Mills associated with RCR, and that he is happy overall with the general state of NASCAR as the 2011 season winds down.
"I think everybody's business model changed a couple of years ago, and we're all still having to adjust to it," Childress said. "But at RCR, we've been fortunate. We've been able to re-sign sponsors, we have a lot of interest from new companies who are looking at it and hopefully in the near future will be making some announcements. So things are looking good for RCR and I think it's looking good for the sport as well. The TV ratings are up, we're getting people back in the stands. I'm really happy with what I'm seeing out of the sport these days."
Even though Childress may be reducing the number of Cup teams he fields next season, he said the recent absorption of Kevin Harvick Inc.'s Nationwide Series program and the fact that the Sprint Cup Series is preparing to move to fuel-injected cars next season mean he's going to look to add employees this off-season, not lay any off.
"We're hoping to add a few more people," Childress said. "We've got a couple other good programs working, and the number we're coming up with now is just a few more employees than we have today."
Childress admitted -- again -- that he would have liked to have re-signed Bowyer. But he said he could not afford to pay Bowyer the salary that the driver was being offered by MWR.
"Well, we all have to adjust to the [new business] model. It's just a matter of if you've got X dollars to race with, you've got to figure out how to make that work," Childress said. "I think NASCAR understands the challenges that are out there today for the teams, and they're going to make their adjustments as well. ... All of us have had to make adjustments to deal with the economic environment.
"We knew what our financial model was, and Clint knew where he needed to be. We just couldn't come together to make it work. We had the car completely sponsored, but it just didn't work out. I'm very sad that it didn't, because I really like Clint and he's going to be a great driver. Never say never. I hope that someday he can be back at RCR."

Fabregas: Arsenal didn't need me
Cesc Fabregas has revealed that he signed for Chelsea rather than Arsenal as the Gunners were unable to fit him in alongside Mesut Ozil.
- Mangan: Failure to re-sign Fabregas could haunt Arsenal
Fabregas, 27, left Barcelona to join the Blues earlier this week in a transfer worth a reported 33 million euros plus extras, signing a five-year deal.
There was a clause in the Spain international's Barca contract that entitled former club Arsenal to a first refusal on a player who spent eight years in North London.
However, Fabregas says Gunners boss Arsene Wenger turned down the opportunity to sign him as the club already had enough cover in his position.
"When I decided that my time at Barcelona had ended, I looked for the best option for me," Fabregas, currently on World Cup duty with Spain, told a news conference in quotes picked up by the Guardian.
"Arsenal was the first option, for contractual reasons. There was a clause that gave them the right to decide.
"We spoke to Wenger and he said that the space was very well filled by Mesut Ozil and it was hard to find a place for both of us in the team."
It was only after it became clear Fabregas would be unable to return to Arsenal that Blues boss Jose Mourinho convinced him to move to Stamford Bridge.
Now a Chelsea player, the midfielder is looking forward to embarking on a new chapter in his career and is hopeful that much success will follow.
"I wanted to go back to the Premier League and I had to think about what my options were then," he said. "I had many very good offers, the logical options.
"I spoke to Jose Mourinho and he told me that he wanted me there. He convinced me very, very quickly. He told me what I wanted to hear; he won me over and convinced me.
"It was very quick. I am very happy, very satisfied and I think it will all go phenomenally well."

The Sh!tbox Derby: Cappa's FreefenderPosted in Project Vehicles on October 1, 2010
After taking inventory of both free CJ-2A Jeeps I went to work making one of them a runner and cutting up the remnants of the other. The previous owner of Jeep number one said it ran, so I gave it the once-over to see why it wouldn't run now. It was missing a battery, part of the air cleaner was gone (I found it in the tool box under the passenger seat), the fuel tank and mechanical fuel pump looked as though they had been bypassed and replaced with a hokey gravity-feed tank (which was no longer on the Jeep), and the wiring was just altogether questionable.
I fished through the wiring so that only the starter and ignition wires were functioning, just in case there were any short circuits waiting to reveal themselves. I built a mount and slapped in an Optima Yellow Top battery to see if I could start any electrical fires.
No fires started, but the engine wouldn't crank over using the starter switch. I figured that the starter solenoid was shot, so I used an old screwdriver to make the connection and jump-start the engine. I poured a little bit of fuel down the throat of the carb while cranking and it fired right up, idled smoothly for a few seconds, and then died when it ran out of gas. Only after I got it running was I willing to pop for an oil change. Hey, it didn't look that dirty!
I rifled through the wiring some more and found the starter solenoid was fine-the connections were simply corroded. I was actually surprised how easy this was turning out to be. After more investigating I found a few other issues, ordered some parts, and got to spinning wrenches while trying to stay on the cheap.

WOODSTOCK – Closing arguments are expected Friday morning after attorneys from both sides rested their cases for the man accused of attacking women he met through Craigslist.
Charles R. Oliver, 45, is accused of raping the women who agreed to have sex with him in exchange for money.
Before prosecutors rested Thursday, they played for jurors a jailhouse phone call between the Woodstock man and his father.
Oliver made statements on the call, telling his father he videotaped his sexual encounters with the women.
"We got to fighting in the house. … and because I was aggressive they're claiming rape," he said.
"The girls' stories are inconsistent, but there's some truth to them," he said.
Oliver is charged in multiple cases of raping women – many of whom were prostitutes – that he met on Craigslist or other website. Attorneys expect to try each case separately.
In all, there are eight alleged victims.
For the case being tried this week, the alleged victim previously testified that she and Oliver agreed to sex for $200. She met him in November 2012 at a Rosemont train station, and he drove her to his Woodstock home.
Once at the home, she performed a sex act on Oliver, who then lead her to the basement. In a locked room in the basement, he grabbed the woman's head and pushed her to a kneeling position. The only way she would get out of the basement was if she played by Oliver's rules, the woman said, adding that she was scared.
Previous police testimony revealed that the lock to the room was reversed – meaning the locking mechanism was on the outside of the door and it needed a tool, like a pin, to be opened.
After the basement attack, the two engaged in sex acts, which Oliver recorded.
As the trial unfolded this week, jurors watched a 12-minute video of sex between Oliver and the then 22-year-old woman.
Oliver's defense attorney has said that the sex was consensual, and that the alleged victim was doing what she had agreed to.
Oliver did not testify. The defense called three witnesses, all police officers. Their testimony was used to attack the credibility of a different state witness – a woman, also in her early 20s, who said she was raped by Oliver.
The woman initially lied to police about how she met Oliver. At first, she didn't admit to meeting him through a Craigslist ad she posted. The officers testified that she initially told them she was kidnapped.
Jurors previously watched 6 minutes of footage of her sexual encounter with Oliver. On the video, she's heard resisting him and saying she was scared.
Closing arguments will begin at 9 a.m. before the case is given to the jurors to deliberate.

Morehead, Ky. – Two strong sets could not save the Tennessee State volleyball team, as the Tigers lost to Morehead State on Saturday in straight sets (11-25, 21-25, 22-25).
Sophomore outside hitter Sherryce Butler and freshman middle blocker Lindsay Hornsby led TSU with nine kills apiece, but the Tigers only had a .159 hitting percentage in the match.
Junior setter Erika Moss racked up 27 assists and senior libero Britani Hathorn led all TSU defenders with seven digs.
The Tigers fell behind early as a handful of errors let Morehead State jump out to an 8-1 first set lead. TSU cut the lead to six with a kill from sophomore outside hitter Naomi Wells, but would never get closer to the lead than that in the period.
The second set was much more competitive as the teams played to an 8-8 tie at the beginning of the frame. Each side continued to trade points, but a late 4-0 run by Morehead State eventually doomed the Tigers.
TSU came roaring out of the gates to begin the third period, scoring the first three points that included a rare kill from Moss. The Tigers held the lead at 14-13 until an attack error tied the set. From there, neither club was able to break away and the score stayed tied at 22-22. That would end the scoring for TSU as Morehead State used a pair of kills to go on a 3-0 run to end the match.
The Tigers will continue conference play on the road when they take on Belmont in Nashville, Tenn. on Sept. 25 at 6 p.m.
