BRISTOL, Tenn. --- Four players tallied at least eight kills to lead a balanced attack as the Lees-McRae College women's volleyball team extended its winning streak to eight matches with a straight-set sweep of King College on Saturday afternoon.
Lees-McRae (10-6, 6-0 CC) won the match by scores of 25-18, 25-17, and 25-20, extending its conference winning streak to 37 contests, while holding King to a .191 clip on the attack. The Bobcats posted a blistering .327 hitting percentage on the afternoon, while dropping in 11 service aces.
Megan Epperson (St. John, Ind.) paced the Bobcats with 14 kills, extending her streak of 10 or more smashes to eight matches. The senior outside hitter has been especially strong of late, averaging 4.42 kills per set over her last six matches while hitting .310 in that span.
Taylor Clendenin (Statesville, N.C.) added 12 kills and a .391 hitting percentage, while Lauren Fox (Garland, Texas) and Jessica Singewald (Port St. Lucie, Fla.) tallied nine and eight kills, respectively. Fox and Singewald hit .750 and .583, respectively, as Megan Mitchell (Minden, Nev.) chipped in 38 assists, becoming the first player in program history to surpass the 2,600-helper plateau. Sariah Suryadevara (Cincinnati, Ohio) also added match-highs of 18 digs and four service aces for the Bobcats.
Ashley Pittman led the way for King with 11 kills, while Sarah Van Goethem chipped in seven smashes. Natalie Brown added 12 digs, while Shannon Earwood tallied 24 assists for the Tornado. Kristen Hamel and Kelsey Griffitts also chipped in a match-high three blocks each.
The opening set proved to be a tightly contested affair until the latter stages of the frame, when the Bobcats launched a 9-3 run to close out the set on a Singewald kill. Lees-McRae carried the momentum into the second set, opening the frame with a 7-4 run that was capped by an Epperson ace.
King stayed within striking distance, cutting the margin to 14-13 on a Bobcat error to cap a 4-1 run. The Bobcats responded once again, claiming a 21-16 lead on a Tornado error before closing out the set on a Mitchell service ace to take a commanding 2-0 advantage in the match.
The Tornado countered early in the third set, battling to an 11-9 advantage before Lees-McRae responded with a 9-3 run to claim an 18-14 lead on a Singewald smash. King refused to go away, cutting the lead to 21-19 on a block by Griffitts and Hamel to cap a 5-3 spurt. The Bobcats reclaimed the momentum in short order, taking a 22-19 lead on a Fox kill to launch a 4-1 run before closing out the match on a Suryadevara ace.
Lees-McRae returns to the court on Friday, September 30, travelling to Raleigh, N.C. to take on St. Augustine's College at 6 p.m.

While his team-mates have long since jumped on the aero road bandwagon with the slippery SLC-SL and now S3, Cervélo TestTeam captain Carlos Sastre has instead preferred to stay on his lighter and more comfortable R3-SL.
It's a logical choice, seeing as how he's a climbing specialist and generally protected from the wind most of the time, anyway. This year's Tour de France, however, sees him on Cervélo's latest incarnation: the R5 (formerly known as Project California).
The R5 builds on the R3's proven Squoval-profile tubes, big chainstays and tiny seatstays, but it's as if Cervélo turned the volume up a few notches. Coming well down the scale, though, is the mass, with a claimed weight under 700g for a 56cm R5. Key changes including a newly tapered front end and new BBright bottom bracket standard.
Cervélo TestTeam race engineer Damon Rinard says that in-house testing revealed definite advantages with a tapered front end but that the commonly accepted 1-1/8 to 1-1/2in standard was actually too rigid. "If you go too oversized at the bottom of the fork you gain so much rigidity that the fork as a whole doesn't absorb energy so it has to be built too strong, making it too heavy and too stiff," he says.
Cervélo engineer Richard Matthews developed a new 1-3/8in lower headset for the R5
Cervélo ultimately settled on a 'sweet spot' of 1-3/8in, using a new lower headset standard that company engineer Richard Matthews developed with Cane Creek (Specialized use a 1-3/8in lower bearing on their Roubaix line but it's a proprietary setup). The matching all-carbon fork is still light but noticeably stiffer and more precise handling than the R3's, according to Rinard. The lower bearing seat is moulded directly into the fork crown, thus eliminating a redundant part and lending a straighter path for the carbon fibres in that area.
The BBright concept is even more interesting. Rinard says the company have long seen advantages with the BB30 system, with its stiffer and lighter 30mm diameter, but never understood why there was so much unsupported spindle on the non-drive side. BBright adheres to the standard on the drive side but pushes the non-drive side bearing out by 11mm, filling in the dead space and providing better axle support, but without affecting pedal stance width.
The BBright bottom bracket's PressFit-30 cups are just visible inboard of the crankarms
Rinard says it's fairly easy for crank manufacturers to adapt existing BB30 crank designs to BBright as only the spindles need to be modified and standard BB30 bearings can be used (the R5 uses PressFit 30 cups). Combining the bigger head tube and BBright shell left Cervélo with a lot more real estate to play with and they look to have used it well.
The asymmetrical down tube is bigger up front and now extra-wide down below, the seat tube is similarly offset and broadened, and the non-drive side chainstay has nearly doubled in breadth. While the drive side stay is still offset at the dropout to clear the cogs and chain, the non-drive side stay comes in straight on for better structural efficiency.
Cervélo take advantage of the BBright standard's dimensions by widening the down tube
Other details include new carbon fibre dropouts, low-friction external cable routing with moulded-in carbon housing stops, a carbon fibre seatpost clamp with titanium and aluminium hardware and a keyed shape to keep it from rotating on the frame (the seat clamp and three seat tube slots are offset from each other for more even clamping force), and a slightly altered frame geometry. Rinard wouldn't fully elaborate on the geometry changes but did confirm a slightly longer head tube on some – but not all – sizes. His comments to us suggest more stable high-speed handling, too.
As for the extra room given by the new bottom bracket, Rinard says: "We haven't finalised just how much of that bonus we want to keep as a stiffness increase and how much we want to cash in as further weight decreases." Comfort looks to be well retained, as the seatstays are slightly slimmer than the ones on the R3 and the chainstays, though taller up at the bottom bracket, now taper far more aggressively in height.
Chainstays are taller at the bottom bracket than before but taper down more dramatically
Team mechanics build up Sastre's bike with a mix of bits from sponsors SRAM, Zipp, 3T, Rotor, Fizik, Speedplay,
Rotor's new 3D crank is worth some extra attention as it's not only compatible with the R5's BBright system but also standard BB30, PressFit-30 and even threaded 68mm-wide shells with a special bottom bracket. Details are limited pending the crank's official release at this autumn's Eurobike trade show but it's a fair assumption to expect a longer machined section on the spindle to accept multiple bearing positions and a bit of extra length on the drive side to accommodate an externally located cup.
Rotor have developed new Q-Rings for the team with updated tooth patterns and graphics
With all of these lightweight parts bolted to what is one of the lightest frames out there, one can't help but wonder how the sum total meets the UCI-mandated minimum weight of 6.8kg – and that'd be a fair question since it doesn't, at least not without a little help. "To stay legal, TestTeam mechanics add as much useful weight as Carlos can stand in component selection, then slip a solid steel bar into the seat tube to top it off," Rinard told us.
"Carlos insists we put it over, not at, the limit so there's no chance it could be measured under." By that account, we'd guess Sastre's bike is around 6.9kg (15.2lb) or so but when the R5 ultimately becomes available to the public, deep-pocketed consumers will undoubtedly be able to build it up much, much lighter.

Although multiple teams were reportedly in contact with Michael Bennett early in free agency, the pass rusher ended up settling for a one-year, $5 million contract with the Seattle Seahawks.
Now we know why his market never developed.
Bennett has been diagnosed with a torn rotator cuff, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday.
It's not clear yet if Bennett will undergo surgery to repair the tear. If he does go under the knife, the rehabilitation could put his status in doubt for the start of the regular season. If he tries to play through the injury, it's a good bet that his production will suffer.
While the Seahawks appropriately have been lauded for their offseason maneuvers, they now have two major question marks at pass rusher with defensive end Chris Clemons also coming off reconstructive knee surgery.

Mark Twain famously said that "Sacred cows make the best hamburgers." I reflect today upon one of the sacred cows of Emergency Medicine, EMTALA, and I wonder to myself:
A little background for the non ER-docs in the audience. (hi mom!) In the Bad Old Days [tm], ERs did not always serve as the Ultimate Social Safety Net that they now are. When patients presented, a "wallet biopsy" was performed at the front door, and if the patient was indigent, they were turned away, or redirected to the local charity hospital, or sometimes they were evaluated and then dumped via ambulance on the charity hospital. Congress responded with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) of 1985 (42 U.S.C. §1395dd), commonly referred to as "EMTALA" (the "The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act") or the "anti-dumping law."
This law required that all hospitals which participate in the Medicare program (effectively, all hospitals) provide a "medical screening examination" to all individuals who present to the ER to determine whether an emergency condition is present, and if such a condition is present, provide appropriate stabilization treatment within the capability of that facility. If a patient is to be transferred, the patient must consent to the transfer, the receiving facility must agree to accept the patient, and the risk and benefits of the transfer must be documented.
Given the demonstrated bad behaviors prior to EMTALA, most view it as an appropriate government response, and those involved in Emergency Medicine nationwide generally have incorporated its principles into their mission. Most ER docs that I personally know have a reflexive tendency to take responsibility for any patient that walks through the door, and given the national uninsured crisis, most ER docs think of it as a moral imperative to care for the needy and indigent.
But EMTALA contains no provisions for compensation of the providers who care for the indigent. It is, rather, a classic unfunded mandate. According to an AMA study, the typical ED physician will provide about $138,000 in uncompensated care annually. Hospitals accrue much larger costs, but do receive some small offsetting funds through Medicare.
It is true that EMTALA did accomplish its limited aims; the Emergency Departments of the nation are now effectively serving as a basic safety net for the most vulnerable members of society. Unfortunately, this has also created a perception that the nation's health care crisis is somehow resolved. I have, numerous times, encountered the argument that the uninsured do in fact, have access to health care through the nation's Emergency Departments. This reflects a limited understanding of the highly limited spectrum of services provided in the typical ED. This common misconception has diminished the sense of urgency required in reforming the funding of health care in America today.
From my limited experience, it seems that just about every health care provider I know agrees that while EMTALA does reflect a sense of moral rectitude, it is bad public policy. It shifts the failings of the healthcare "free market" onto the shoulders of private physicians by legislative fiat, rather than providing sustainable solutions. Worse, EMTALA provides a incomplete, "band-aid" solution to a critical deficiency of the national health-care policy -- the inability to provide full access to care for all citizens.
It is abundantly clear that comprehensive reforms are required, reforms which guarantee universal access to health care. Even republicans such as Mitt Romney and The Arnold have floated (tepid) proposals to accomplish this goal. However, I am suspicious that such an ambitious undertaking is be doomed to failure, as in 1993, by the many competing interests and advocacy groups, not least of which are the entrenched insurance companies. It may be that something dramatic may need to change in order to re-establish a sense of urgency for and momentum towards systemic health care reform.
One appropriately dramatic action would be for EMTALA to be overturned. Obviously, it is politically untouchable from a legislative point of view; it may, however, be vulnerable from a judicial approach.
The Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution states, in part, "... nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." The Fourteenth Amendment similarly reads, "nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." The argument to be made here is that EMTALA requires private citizens, largely physicians, to provide the fruits of their labor without compensation or due process, and as such represents an unconstitutional "taking" of private property.
The biggest question to which I am not truly competent to provide an answer is this:
Absent some review in case law which I am unable to find, I cannot find a definitive answer on line. Most definitions of property do make a distinction between real property and intangible property, definitions which do not explicitly include, but which would seem to be expansible to labor. There is a historic precedent in the philosophy of law that all property is derived from labor. I do not know to what degree, f any, this has become incorporated into common, case or statutory law. If anybody reading this can provide me with a definitive answer, I would be very interested in reading it.
Assuming the preceding, the right to property is generally held to be a fundamental right, which the courts provide with a high degree of protection, or "strict scrutiny." This means that any restrictions or impositions upon that right must be: justified by a compelling state interest, narrowly tailored, and accomplished by the least restrictive means.
I think it is self-evident that the need to provide emergency health care to all citizens is a compelling need, and I can concede that the construction of EMTALA is indeed pretty narrow. Whether the least restrictive means are used is, however, open to question. EMTALA, were it linked to a funding method, some sort of standard fee schedule, would achieve the same goal with less restriction on the provider's autonomy. Thus, by my reading, EMTALA might be impermissible under the Fifth Amendment.
What would be the consequences of such a case being brought? I think the "house of medicine:" ACEP, the AMA, etc, would probably oppose any attempt to overturn EMTALA, simply for fear of the political backlash. They would not want to be perceived as wanting to put the poor and vulnerable at risk. Given the almost-certain filing of amicus briefs in opposition to a petition to overturn EMTALA, the odds of such an action succeeding seem low in the face of what may be a tenuous legal foundation for the case. A failed attempt to overturn EMTALA would indeed portray the plaintiffs -- and all physicians, by extension -- in a very negative light with no tangible benefit to show for it.
Conversely, if such a claim were successful, what would be the consequence? Again, I predict a highly negative public reaction, mostly directed against physicians. The perception would be that doctors don't want to take care of the uninsured (which is to some degree true); we as a profession would be viewed as acting to put the poor and vulnerable in jeopardy. The result, however, might ultimately be positive. The exposure of the "medical safety net" as being untenable would almost certainly spur lawmakers to action. Providing an impetus for legislative action to cover the uninsured would, indeed, be the only reason to make such a claim.
I think the dangers here are too great to justify trying these waters. Exactly what sort of legislative response Congress would come up with to replace EMTALA is uncertain, and punitive measures directed against physicians might well be part of the response. The AMA and other physician lobbying organizations would not face a sympathetic audience in trying to craft law or guide the legislative process, as they would lose a great deal of moral authority due to EMTALA's demise.
Furthermore, in the current political climate, where the health care crisis is getting a fair amount of national attention and just about every prominent democrat has a pet plan for universal coverage, there is some actual basis for hope that a solution may -- just may -- be on the horizon. In this environment, provocative moves like a challenge to EMTALA would probably work greatly against the interests of physicians, and are probably unnecessary.
Ultimately, I do not know whether the legal basis for this thought-experiment is sound. I suppose we will never know unless someone files a petition and makes the case. It would be interesting if some "rogue doc" out there did so. Coming from a private individual would help a bit to shield the house of medicine from the negative publicity, especially if those organizations were on record as opposing the action. Even a credible threat against EMTALA might be helpful in moving the debate forward.
Mmmm. . . great hamburger.

The Reynolds family of construction services companies announced a few executive-level changes Tuesday.
Richard Reynolds, founder and owner of the Harrisburg-based firm, has turned over the title of CEO to David Angle. Angle has served as COO, president of the general construction division, and project executive. He has been with the company since its inception in 1994.
Reynolds will continue as owner, chairman of the board and member of the executive committee.
The firm promoted Jeffrey Merritt, president of Reynolds Construction Management, to COO. Merritt also has been with the company for 18 years, having held the positions of director of business development and senior vice president.
"With these changes, leadership to ensure the future success of the Reynolds companies is firmly established for many years to come," Reynolds said in a news release.
The company started as Reynolds Construction Management with a focus on K-12, collegiate, government, health care and commercial building projects in Pennsylvania.

A phantom quartz crystal is a very unique, rare and special crystal. The phantoms inside a crystal are indicative of a crystal's evolution, transformation and life story. A phantom is a mineral deposit within a crystal that appears to look like a "ghost" of a crystal within another crystal; they form when the growth of the crystal has been interrupted or blocked by something, and then the crystal begins to grow again afterwards, literally leaving behind evidence of this "obstacle" it overcame. The phantom quartz meaning is universal awareness and they represent the many phases of the cycle of life.
Chlorite Phantom Quartz, or green phantom quartz, is the rarest of all phantom quartz crystals, and perhaps the most powerful. Chlorite quartz is an incredibly powerful crystal for healing and reconnecting with Nature, as it carries a strong connection with Mother Earth. Holding and meditating with these crystals helps to clear any environmental pollution or negative energy from our personal energy field and aura. All phantoms are facilitators of growth, but Chlorite Phantom Quartz is particularly powerful for self-healing and regeneration; it also helps to facilitate detoxification. These green phantom quartz crystals help to ground any excessive or painful emotions into the Earth, helping you to achieve a sense of inner balance.
Green chlorite phantom quartz crystals facilitate a connection with Mother Earth on a soul level, helping us to recognize her as a living, breathing being. The green chlorite's detoxifying and cleansing properties are magnified and amplified by the quartz crystal helping to clear the energy of our environment, energy body and chakras. It will prove to help resolve issues of the heart, removing blockages that will allow you to acknowledge, heal, forgive, release and move forward. Meditate with it over your heart chakra, or place it in your home, office or sacred space to clear negativity and energetically cleanse the space.
This chlorite phantom quartz crystal is rare, exquisite and very high quality. They were handpicked by Heather & Timmi for their uniqueness and beauty. No coupon codes are valid and all sales are final.

Justin Timberlake: 'Amy Adams saved my life with a kiss'
Pop star-turned-actor JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE has credited AMY ADAMS, his co-star in new film TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE, with saving his life during a frozen lake scene in the movie.
The Social Network star reveals he was beginning to lose consciousness and turn blue with the extreme cold and he would have sparked a medical emergency on the set if it wasn't for his new movie love interest's attentive nature.
He explains, "We shot the scene in the Blue Ridge Mountains and the water was just below fifty degrees. It was freezing.
"Amy actually saved my life. Unbeknownst to me, I was turning blue and couldn't process a thought, so she actually saved my life. I owe Amy Adams my life."
But Adams is playing down her heroism, stating, "Some people call it mouth-to-mouth, some people call it kissing - any way, it's nice work if you can get it!"


text: I've realized that when a Server IP is added to ISPConfig, a list of listen ports can be choosen, and a NameVirtualHost IPort line is added to the apache config at sites-available/ispconfig.conf. However there is no way to choose the listen port of apache server or of a site/virtualhost, only the IP can be choosen and to get listen in a different port is needed to change the default conf template at: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf/vhost.conf.master This is so weird, because in the template there is a "port" variable but I haven't found a way to change it in the ISPConfig panel. It would be cool can choose a different port for each virtualhost, this is very usefull when a reverse proxy like varnish is used in a machine with dinamic and static content with only 1 IP. And seems that the internal logic is almost implemented in ISPConfig to get this. Thank you, Tomás

Last week I had the pleasure of co-chairing a festive luncheon for the Wedding Industry Professionals Association (WIPA) at one of the most elegant wedding venues in all of the SF Bay Area: the Imperial Floor of the Westin St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco! It has killer views, to start with...
There are two spectacular ball rooms on the 32nd, "imperial," floor: Alexandra - the larger one - where the luncheon was held, and "Victor's Palace" where dessert was served. The table decor of ivory jacquard table cloths, pale gold napkins, white and soft pink floral centerpieces and Victorian Valentine's themed pink, red and gold favors complemented Alexandra's ivory and gold splendor.
For dessert, we enjoyed the equally glamorous "Victor's Palace" ball room, outfitted for this occasion with vintage furniture:
In addition to sampling various wedding cakes, accompanied by delicious coffee, one lucky guest won this Victorian Valentine-themed chocolate favor tray:
It was a memorable event, for sure!

I absolutely adore these fabrics by Australian designers, Amy and Carly. It's their first collection of quilting weight fabric, and I'm in love with all of them, but particularly that shade of blue! They drape beautifully and feel wonderful. I love them against a sea of white. Hopefully they'll be available soon (I'm waiting on some for the back).
I've taken lots of step by step photos so I can write up the pattern (eventually!)
I'm giving away 10" each of these three (yet to be released) prints...
as well as two of my quilt patterns (I'll also send you the pattern for the above design as well when its done).
So, how to enter - here's the fun part... I used to have a calendar of "Extreme Ironing". It was hilarious. There were people ironing on mountains, cars, tightropes etc. So that got me thinking about "Extreme Quilting"! Here's some pics of me attempting extrem(ish) quilting (hubby said "wow, you're extreme" when saw these).
|Oh yeah, I'm so cool - not!
|I've finally found a place to quilt where the kids can't get me!
|But ofcourse that doesn't last for long
Enjoy the rest of the giveaways going on for Sew, Mama, Sew! giveaway day. Good luck! Giveaway closed - thanks!
By the way, if you like Flea Market Fancy you wont want to miss this.

Gausman, Baseball Move Into Regional Final, 7-1
Director of Digital Media
BATON ROUGE -- Kevin Gausman may not have had his best stuff on Saturday night at Alex Box Stadium, but the sophomore LSU righty got an early lead and guided the Tigers into the NCAA Regional driver's seat, 7-1.
LSU (45-16) advanced to face the winner of Sunday's 1:30 p.m. CT elimination game between second-seeded Oregon State (39-19) and fourth-seeded Louisiana-Monroe.
First pitch for the Tigers is set for 6:30 p.m. CT on the LSU Sports Radio Network (98.1 FM in Baton Rouge) and the Jumbo Sports Network (Cox Sports Television in Baton Rouge).
Saturday's attendance of 10,367 was the largest in LSU baseball history. The paid crowd (11,535) was the largest in postseason history.
"It was such a good team victory," said LSU coach Paul Mainieri. "It was sort of a weird game; the tempo of the game was very slow. They laid off a lot of (Gausman's) pitches, but we swung at a lot of bad pitches. We kind of grinded our way through tonight and got ourselves a victory. We're going to put it in our back pocket and move on to tomorrow."
Gausman (11-1), making his first career NCAA start, gave up seven hits and three walks but held Oregon State to 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position. While Gausman threw 129 pitches, the Beavers stranded nine runners and scored their lone run with three-straight two-out singles in the top of the third inning.
"I've had Kevin now for almost two full years, and nothing the kid does amazes me anymore," Mainieri said. "He has gotten better every week. Today, maybe, he wasn't as sharp as he's been in previous weeks. He just showed another side of himself, how he could just battle through not being as fine as he normally is. A kid with lesser mental toughness would have probably started to pout and feel sorry for himself and let things get out of control. He just keeps battling right through it.
"He didn't have a 1-2-3 inning until about the sixth inning. It was a struggle for him, but he just kept fighting and fighting. I thought his last couple of innings were his best innings of the game."
Nick Goody pitched a perfect ninth for LSU.
Oregon State starter Dan Child (6-4) took the loss after allowing five runs on seven hits with two walks and a strikeout in 5 1/3 innings of work. Three Beavers relievers combined to keep the Tigers hitless until an Austin Nola RBI triple in the eighth.
But, the Tigers did their damage early then leaned on Gausman and then Goody to finish off Oregon State.
LSU got on the scoreboard in the bottom of the second, as catcher Ty Ross and designated hitter Grant Dozar each singled to open the inning. Both advanced on a sacrifice bunt by Alex Edward and Ross came home on a groundout by Tyler Hanover for a 1-0 lead. After Arby Fields was hit by a pitch, Nola drove in Dozar with an RBI single to center.
After Gausman allowed a run in the top of the third, the Tigers answered with a pair of runs in the bottom half of the inning. Mason Katz was hit by a pitch to start the frame and Raph Rhymes singled up the middle. Each advanced on a wild pitch by Child, and Katz came home on a RBI groundout to second by Ross. A single to left by Dozar plated Rhymes to put the Tigers ahead 4-1.
Despite a putout at home plate, LSU added to its lead in the sixth when Fields reached on an error on a sacrifice bunt and came around the score on a wild pitch.
The Tigers added two more runs in the eighth when Fields was again hit by a pitch with two outs and scored on a triple by Nola. Nola scored on a wild pitch to give the Tigers a 7-1 advantage.
LSU 7, Oregon State 1 (Jun 02, 2012 at Baton Rouge, La.)

Pitchers: Oregon State - Child, Dan; Davis, Dylan(6); Wilkerson, Riley(8); Reser, Zack(8) and

Win-Kevin Gausman(11-1) Loss-Child, Dan(6-4) T-3:16 A-11535
Actual Attendance: 10,367
Paid attendance is an LSU postseason record.
Actual attendance is the largest in Alex Box Stadium history.
Game televised by Cox Sports TV.
- LSU (45-16) awaits the winner of Sunday's 1:30 p.m. matchup between Oregon State and ULM.
- Austin Nola's triple in the eighth inning was his first of the season and the game's only extra-base hit among the eight for LSU and Oregon State's seven hits.
- Oregon State is now 37-25 in NCAA Tournament games (13 appearances)
- LSU's NCAA Tournament record is 125-47 (25 appearances).
- LSU's 7-1 win over Oregon State combined with LSU's 4-1 win over UL-Monroe is the first time LSU has held NCAA Tournament opponents to that low a run total in back-to-back games since the 2004 regional in a 9-0 win over Army and a 6-2 win over Southern Mississippi.
- But, it's not the best back-to-back pitching performances: In the 2000 Baton Rouge regional LSU defeated Jackson State 19-1, then followed with a 21-0 win over UL-Monroe, a feat that duplicated LSU's 14-1 and 3-0 (May 22, May 23) over the University of New Orleans in the 1987 South II Regional in New Orleans. (LSU's other wins were 5-3 over Tulane and 7-3 over Cal State-Fullerton) when LSU advanced to the College World Series for the second consecutive year.
- Oregon State starter Dan Child (6-4) pitched 5.1 innings, his shortest stint since lasting three innings in an April 29 loss to Southern Cal. He threw 102 pitches (61 strikes).
- LSU starter and All-America righthander Kevin Gausman (11-1) allowed three walks, the most since giving up four in a 7-0 loss to Florida (April 6). It was Gausman's only loss this year. His three strikeouts is the lowest of the season. He struck out four in a no-decision May 4 at Ole Miss.
- JaCoby Jones continued to lead LSU in stolen bases. He got his 11th of the season in the sixth inning.
- Through four games: Paid attendance 42,938; Actual attendance 23,572.
- Saturday night's Game 4 paid attendance was 11,535, a Baton Rouge Regional single-game record.
- The game's actual attendance, 10,367, all-time Alex Box (and NCAA Baton Rouge Tournament) single-game record.

Game 4: LSU vs. Oregon State
June 2, 2012
On pitcher Kevin Gausman ...
"I've had Kevin (Gausman) now for almost two full years, and nothing the kid does amazes me anymore. He has gotten better every week. Today, maybe, wasn't as sharp as he's been in previous weeks. He just showed another side of himself, how he could just battle through not being as fine as he normally is. A kid with lesser mental toughness would have probably started to pout and feel sorry for himself and let things get out of control. He just keeps battling right through it. He didn't have a one-two-three inning until about the sixth inning. It was a struggle for him, but he just kept fighting and fighting. I thought his last couple of innings were his best innings of the game."
On Grant Dozar and catcher Ty Ross ...
"(Grant) Dozar and (Ty) Ross both had some really good at bats. Ty in particular, I don't think his statistics will show you the value of his at bats. It's so awesome to have him back in our line-up. He's such a critical and vital part of our team."
On the game ...
"It was such a good team victory. It was sort of a weird game, the tempo of the game was very slow. They laid off a lot of (Gausman's) pitches, but we swung at a lot of bad pitches. We kind of grinded our way through tonight and got ourselves a victory. We're going to put it in our back pocket and move on to tomorrow."
On pitcher Nick Goody ...
"We have all the confidence in the world in him, and it was a good opportunity to get him back out there. I thought he threw the ball exceptionally well. He got back into a groove. I don't want to say he got his confidence back, because I don't think that kid ever lost his confidence. It was good to see him go out there and have a clean inning."
On his pitching performance tonight...
"I didn't have my normal command; it was something I had to fight the entire night. I didn't really have my best secondary pitch, which is my change-up. I had to go to my curveball or my slider, and I had to find which one was going to be the difference-maker for me, and it ended up being my slider. I tried to throw that early in counts and deep in counts. I give all the credit to (Oregon State); they didn't chase a lot. I think that was the scouting report they had on me. They didn't chase anything, and they made you throw a lot of strikes.
On tonight's game...
"Tonight the whole lineup made it a point to have tough outs one through nine. Guys came through with some big hits and got that run in from third base with less than two outs; we did that really well tonight. It was a good team effort. Kevin (Gausman) battled, and it was a good team win for us tonight.
On being back in the regional championship game...
"It's always good to win two early in the regional. It puts a lot of stress on those other teams having to play in the heat of the day and having to play that double-header."
On his performance at the plate...
"At the plate I felt really good. I was seeing the ball really well, and I was just trying to hit it back up the middle. I got some good pitches to hit, and took a couple ugly swings on some sliders. Other than that I was seeing the ball really well, and I was trying to hit the ball the other way in the right situations."
On Kevin Gausman's pitching performance...
"Gausman really battled in the first couple of innings. He had to throw a lot of pitches, not necessarily bad, but I thought he was throwing well. Like Kevin said, they laid off a lot of pitches. I thought he did a great job. He battled, as always."
Opening statement ...
"I would agree with what both players said. I thought we did a nice job offensively with our approach to what we wanted to do with (Kevin) Gausman. He only struck out three. A couple of guys got away from that a little bit and seemed like they were the ones up with guys in scoring position and we could not get a hit off of him and part of that was him. We take a lot of pride in how we defend and how we pitch and that is where we got hurt tonight."
On making errors ...
"Guys are going to make errors. I think we went eight games in a row without making an error. We play really well, but tonight we did not play as well as we can. In a lot of situations the ball went off of the backstop. I do not think it has anything to do with effort or anything to do with concentration. You make errors once in awhile and that is the area that we were not very good. You win with pitching and defense and that hurt us tonight."
On his performance...
"I didn't have my best stuff today. Coming out against a really good LSU team, you can't leave the ball up. I just feel like I didn't play like I usually play."
On pitching in front of the largest crowd in Alex Box Stadium history...
"It was exciting to pitch in that kind of atmosphere. I don't think it really affected me. I enjoyed it."
On if he felt good about his performance...
"I was definitely battling every inning. I was struggling to work in and out of my fastball. That's usually what I live off of. My slider was two out of three. I just wasn't myself today."
On Oregon State's performance...
"I thought we did a pretty good job as a team. We hit some balls hard but didn't stick with the game plan on defense."
On where the defensive problems were...
"I made an error by rushing a throw and Dan didn't secure the ball on a bunt."
On the frustration of not capitalizing on the large amount of pitches LSU P Kevin Gausman had in the first three innings...
"Obviously that's frustrating. You want to get him out of there as quick as possible. We hit some balls hard we just couldn't follow through. Hopefully we improve tomorrow."

Revision as of 21:56, 6 December 2012
This is a visual walk through about manually partitioning your Harddisc, during the setup of Sabayon Linux.
then let's choose the free space where we want to install our Sabayon and Click on New.
The first partition to create is the /boot partition, with ext3, in my case I've chosen a fixed size of 100 Mb, but my notebook is used for developing reasons so I need more space for more kernels, you can easily choose 32 Mb that is more than enough for the common user.
Now select the free space and press again on new.
This time we're going to create a swap partition, as for the size I've chosen 1500Mb that is a decent space but you can choose more if you have more than 1Gb ram.
Time to create a root partition as before select the free space and n click on New.
We're about to use all our free space left, and as for the fs type...I've chosen ext4 but this is EXPERIMENTAL.
This is our final configuration as you can see.
|I hope this is useful for everybody ~

This high quality line of color is produced at a uniform and economical price. Daler-Rowney Georgian Oil Colors are ideal for use with a knife or a brush, for a variety of effects. Every batch is matched for color and texture against exacting standards.
Color Swatches created using heavy application/medium application/50% tint and were applied on acrylic primed canvas (7 oz) material.
Zinc White is the coolest white, and it has a cold, clean masstone and a slightly bluish tint. It has less hiding power and is more transparent than other whites. It dries slowly and is good for painting wet into wet and for glazing and scumbling. Zinc White is neither as opaque nor as heavy as Lead White, its covering power is not as good, and it takes much longer to dry. However, it does not blacken when exposed to sulfur in the air as Lead White does. It is very valuable for making tints with other colors. Unmixed Zinc White dries to a brittle and dry paint film that may crack over the years, so it is not good for frescoing. It is more transparent in acrylic form than Titanium White and is the most commonly used white with gouache. Chinese White is a version of Zinc White appropriate for opaque watercolor techniques.
Zinc White has great permanence and lightfastness.
Zinc White is moderately toxic if ingested and slightly toxic if inhaled.
Though historians are divided on who first isolated the element zinc, they agree that it was first suggested as a white pigment in 1782. Zinc White was accepted as a watercolor in 1834 and was called Chinese White due to the popularity of oriental porcelain in Europe at the time. Ten years later, a suitable oil form was produced. By the early 20th century, it had improved to the point where it was an acceptable alternative to Flake White.
Chinese White, French White, Permanent White, Silver White, Snow White, Zinc Oxide.

Arylide Yellow G is a variant of Hansa Yellow G (PY1). It is a transparent yellow with great brightness and tinting strength. Its drying time ranges from average to slow. Hansa Yellow pigments make more intense tints and cleaner secondaries than Cadmium Yellows, especially when mixed with other organic or modern colors like Phthalo Blue and Green. Because they are more transparent, they have great value as glazing colors.
Hansa Yellow G has good permanence and lightfastness, particularly in the lighter shades.
Hansa Yellow pigments have no significant acute hazards, though chronic hazards have not been well studied.
Hansa Yellows were first made in Germany just before World War I from a series of synthetic dyestuffs called Pigment Yellow. Hansa Yellow G, introduced in 1910, was the first of these products to be commercialized. Hansa Yellow G was the standard yellow for printing inks under late in the 20th century, when stronger diarylide yellows began to replace it. It is still used a great deal in packaging, and for air drying paints.
Hansa Yellow G
This Naphthol Red is a bright deep red with bluish undertones. It has an average drying time.
This Naphthol Red has fair to good lightfastness, not because of its masstone, but because it fades in tints. Not suitable for exterior use.
Naphthol Reds are not considered toxic. They may cause eye, skin, or respiratory irritation. Contact with dry pigment should be avoided.

Mars Orange is a bright, extremely light red and appears almost pinkish in contrast with darker colors. It has incredible tinting strength and opacity. The synthetic form of Mars Orange is made from iron oxides and is cleaner, brighter, and denser than its ochre-based counterparts.
Mars Orange has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Mars Orange has no significant hazards.
The word Mars refers to the Roman god of iron and war. Mars Orange has been manufactured as a pigment since the 17th century.
titanium dioxide
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies give no indiciation that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. Titanium White, if inhaled in large amounts over the course of several years, may cause a benign pneumoconiosis that is visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.

When news came out about E.J. Manuel visiting the Jets, we suggested that it made sense for a team that might want a quarterback, but not enough to invest a top 10 pick in one.
Now, the Jets are aiming a little higher.
According to Conor Orr of the Newark Star-Ledger, West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith is visiting the team Wednesday and Thursday.
The Jets have also had Miami (Ohio) quarterback Zac Dysert in for a visit, suggesting more later-round focus.
While it still makes more sense to wait a year to decide on a quarterback of the future — at least until they decide if the coach of the present has a future — making a move for Smith would be a lot easier for a team that had an extra first-round pick.
Now where could the Jets obtain one of those?

He often features young, isolated male figures in his work positioned in and amongst quietly rendered, slightly dark alternate worlds. Also, his stuff is stylistically on point. I particularly like the trees in the work pictured above. Montien, who's worked with Universal Music among other clients, probably arrived at his mystically-oriented approach naturally. He grew up in a "superstitious family" and is the great grandson of a "heroic shaman".

Student or Learner
Please urgently help me improve the following short passage!
My name is M. Tee, an assistant officer-in-charge currently working at DEF park in ABC city. I write to ask for your confirmation that your department, possibly within the past two years, had assigned your staff to help us change the computer monitor from the past one 14'' with unknown brand name to the current one 17'' LCD with brand name ICM and your staff had subsequently taken the past one away back your department.
As there is a change of officer-in-charge in our park in recent months and I currently need to update the inventory record of my park, I feel a little bit hard to find the documents proving the past monitor was returned to your department and hence I hope you can help me find the related record in your department. Grateful if you can give me a reply as soon as possible. Should you have any queries, please feel free to contact me on 1234-5678, thank you for your great assistance!
M. Tin
Thank you very much!

Up up and away into skies full of real estate changes
The first C-IN event of this year was the unique meeting of real estate professionals at the RE/MAX Convention, which took place at the end of January in the Prague Congress Center. Almost 700 guests from the RE/MAX network and their real estate colleagues met here.
ESMAC Meeting 2018: Six days in motion in the Prague Congress Center
Prague held an expert meeting of the European Society of Movement Analysis for Adults and Children (ESMAC) during the last week of September. The meeting was designed for all those interested in body movement analysis to promote collaboration between biomechanics, bioengineers, physicians, physiotherapists and other professionals.
TERIBEAR moved Prague and Mladá Boleslav for the fourth time.
The charity event TERIBEAR moves Prague, also known as a fun day with the bear, which was held for the fourth time by the Tereza Maxová Foundation, once again raised the bar with an astonishing 8,000 participants registered before the start of the event. This year, more than 16,000 people supported this unique event. They came to the Vítkov hill in Prague and together, they ran and walked an amazing 320,812.5 km. The total amount that was raised was an incredible 9,624,375 crowns!
Geopolitics, war virtualization or popculture and populism: The future and hope of the theory of international relations was discussed in Prague.
On Saturday, 15 September, the 12th Pan-European Conference of the European Association for International Relations (EISA) was successfully concluded. The event took place at the Prague University of Economics and it has seen several important milestones, both from the perspective of the association and us organizers at C-IN.
C-IN's autumn is surely set to race away in a blink of an eye due to may interesting conferences.
The summer holiday months are finishing and our project managers are preparing to not only to send their children back to school. The conferences to be organised by C-IN through September are fast approaching. On September 2nd, the International Society for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect Congress (ISPCAN) commences concurrently with the 17th International Conference on the Properties of Water and Steam (ICPWS). The Congress of the International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) will start just four days later.
Conference Compass: Smart application designed for international associations not only during congresses
Technological development is unstoppable and an integral part of the work of the C-IN team is the monitoring of current trends and their use in practice. We were personally introduced to a new development in the mobile industry last week during a short workshop by Jelmer van Anst, founder and CEO of the Dutch company called Conference Compass. Just as is states in the name itself, their main product is a mobile application designed for international associations not only at the time of their regular conferences.

February 5th is right around the corner, Sport Heads, so I ask you, are you ready for some lingerie football? That's right— fire up the grill, chill some brews and invite over your best buds because it's time for the most important sporting event of the year (that takes place on MTV2). This year, however, the highly anticipated Lingerie Bowl is getting a different spin in the advertising department. Sure, we still see a lot of busty ladies walking around in tiny tiny clothing, but we also see our share of pretty intense football action and, damn, can those broads tackle.
Of course, it's ridiculous to think that anything called the Lingerie Bowl would (or should) get the same respect as professional sports. The focus on aesthetics over athleticism is enough to dismiss it as misogynistic fodder for incredibly limited masturbation fantasies, but the footage of the players in the heat of the game makes you wonder if female professional football could soon become a reality. The talent is there? Now how about complete uniforms and a little respect?

Offers three steps for building tech workforce
It what likely is her final public appearance as the CEO of BAE Systems Inc., Linda Hudson challenged the rest the technology industry to take on what she describes as a crisis in STEM education.
STEM, an acronym for science, technology, engineering and mathematics, ranks among the most valuable fields of study, with graduates being highly sought after in the defense, aerospace and national security industries.
With the current shortage of STEM talent, however, the nation faces a looming, competitive issue as the workforce continues to gray, said Hudson at the Northern Virginia Technology Council TITANS event on Thursday morning.
Hudson, whose last day as CEO of BAE is Friday, stressed the importance of addressing the diminishing workforce, and emphasized the need to build the size, strength and viability of STEM labor.
"When it comes to driving economic development and technological innovation, our STEM workforce is one of the greatest natural resources that United States possesses, and fortunately, it is a renewable resource – but only if we choose to renew it," Hudson said.
That time is now.
Many claim that that the STEM shortage is not as big of an issue as Hudson claims, but she reminded everyone to take note of how no U.S. citizen has ever known a time where the United States wasn't a leader in technological innovation. To maintain that tech superiority, the STEM shortage must be addressed, she said.
Part of the issue is young people's perception of industries like defense, national security and aerospace; for young people, these industries seem like high-tech dinosaurs, Hudson said. Young people are far more likely to climb aboard commercial giants like Google and other companies with more flexible work environments.
Another part of the issue is the narrow scope of the STEM talent; "We must be willing to embrace and develop obvious, but overlooked, historically unconventional sources of talent: women, minorities and immigrants," Hudson said.
She laid out three steps that can be taken to address the STEM shortage and ensure economic development and technological innovation in the future:
First, there is a need to establish common definitions and a consistent vocabulary for talking about the STEM issue, as well as the challenges and opportunities. "At present, the debate gets so tangled in the semantics of whether there's a shortage or geographical disparity that we lose sight of the real issues at play," Hudson said.
Second, there is a need to reevaluate the approach to STEM higher education. Hudson referenced math and science courses in college, and how many of those classes are intentionally difficult in an attempt to "weed out" students.
This kind of environment is too hostile for fields that are in such high demand. "What might happen," Hudson said, quoting University of Maryland president Freeman Hrabowski, "if, instead of constantly trying to weed students out of math and science early on, we tried to keep them in?"
Third, there is a need to gain a deeper understanding of what causes people to exit STEM careers prematurely or avoid these careers all together, Hudson said.
It is time to take a look at what it is that companies like Google and Apple do to draw so many young people in, and it is time to make similar efforts within industries like defense and national security to attract, lure, satisfy and retain these young people.

As a STEM grad, former STEM educator and now working in STEM industries, I can't agree more with Linda's challenge. I'm also her contemporary and remember the barriers to women studying in STEM fields and pursuing STEM careers 40 years ago. Sounds like things have not changed enough in this country.

2014 nissan gt-r Model Overview
Vehicle Overview
An all-wheel-drive supercar that costs a quarter of a Lamborghini that's also as blisteringly quick may sound too good to be true, but in the Nissan GT-R's case, it's very true. Dubbed "Godzilla," the GT-R is the defining supercar from Japan, and the world's greatest supercar bargain at that. Although it costs a fraction of other high performance exotics such as Ferrari and Aston Martin, that doesn't make it any less capable, as it can most certainly keep up with them, if not leave them in the dust.
The GT-R is the standard by which others will judge, as its engineers have made no compromises on their mission for outright speed. Just check out the 2014 Nissan GT-R Track Edition's numbers: 0-60 mph in 2.7 seconds, the quarter mile in 11.0 seconds at 125 mph, and 60-0 mph in 94 feet. This GT-R (which has its rear seats eliminated), was a tenth of second quicker than the much more expensive McLaren MP4-12C, and just as quick as the fastest production vehicles we've ever tested — a 2012 Porsche 911 Turbo S and the Bugatti Veyron. Powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-6, the Nissan GT-R's 545 horses and 436 lb-ft of torque are sent to all four wheels via a six-speed twin-clutch gearbox and Atessa all-wheel-drive system. If its performance alone isn't impressive enough, perhaps the technological bits inside are. Its video-game-inspired multifunction display offers 11 pages of information including mechanical and driving information, acceleration, brake pedal pressure, steering angle, and a recording function with playback.
We've put the GT-R up against several competitors, and the car has won our 2011 and 2013 World's Greatest Drag Race from our Best Driver's Car competitions, smoking all other participating high-performance cars. In our most recent head-to-head match including the Audi R8 V-10 Plus, although the GT-R beat it in the drag race, we chose the R8 as number once thanks in part to its quicker shifts. However, the GT-R is still nothing to scoff at.
What's New for 2014
The GT-R Track Edition joins the lineup alongside the Black Edition and the regular GT-R, boasting a stiffer suspension, more carbon fiber, and added air inlets for the brakes.

Four larger studies are to lead to a comprehensive picture of the prosody, phonetics, syntax, and semantics of Turkish questions, and to a range of contributions to the cross-linguistic literature on the interfaces that are involved.
1. Turkish wh-in-situ ('Ali WHAT ate?') attracts sentence stress, unlike moved wh-words in English and German ('What did Ali EAT?') Studying the difference in controlled contexts allows us to investigate this effect relative to the effects of given, new, and focused elements.
2. Descriptions of Turkish intonation involve stress-retraction to the wh-word, a final rise in wh-questions, and an initial plateau. A phonetic study establishes the existence and crucial phonological/phonetic details of these.
3. Untypical questions (rhetorical, echo, etc.) show untypical combinations of wh-words, the question marker -mI, and the intonational markers. They are crucial to establishing the meanings of these elements.
4. -mI suffixes to each alternative in alternative questions ('JOHN-mI or BILL-mI dinner cooked?'). Turkish yes/no-questions allow a 'single alternative' version of this ('JOHN-mI dinner cooked?'). This allows us to address open issues in the cross-linguistic literature on alternative questions.

'Charlie's Angels" Annie IIonzeh — Crush of the Day [PICTURES]
Annie Ilonzeh is best known as Maya Ward on 'General Hospital' (according to people that watch 'General Hospital'), but she has appeared on TV in 'How I Met Your Mother,' 'Melrose Place' and 'Entourage' and on the big screen in 'He's Just Not That Into You' and 'Miss March.'
Annie is now one-third of the new cast of the 'Charlie's Angels' reboot that starts September 22nd on ABC. She will play the role of Kate Prince, a former Miami police officer. She will play that role for a month until the show gets canceled. She'll then join the cast of 'Pan Am' on ABC until that is canceled a week later. Hopefully, she can latch on to one of the many other primetime shows this season before they eventually get the axe. It's one of the reasons we made Annie our Crush of the Day: she is a gorgeous woman that is stuck on a doomed show.
It's not her fault. It's Hollywood. Enough with the reboots. Have a few brainstorming sessions. Come up with an original idea. Here are a couple: 'Charlie's Angels' with Charlie Sheen and three strippers, 'Farley's Angels,' which details the life of a Victoria's Secret manager named Farley and the women that work in his store and 'Carley's Anglers' about Carley Johnson, a former Miss America contestant, that takes over her father's bait shop after he kicks the bucket. You're welcome, ABC. We'll be in our trailer.
