One day ahead of the Tokyo Game Show, Nintendo held a press conference where it revealed new details about the 3DS, including new features, new games, and a $20 peripheral that adds a second analog nub. Oh, and Kid Icarus has been pushed back to next year and Skyward Sword could takes dozens of hours to complete.
First rumored last week thanks to a scan from Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu, the 3DS add-on that adds a second circle pad, called the 3DS Expansion Slide Pad, will be coming to Japan on December 10. It will cost ¥1,500, approximately $20, and is powered by a single AAA battery. Here are the confirmed games that will support the peripheral:
- Monster Hunter 3G
- Resident Evil Revelations
- Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D
- Ace Combat 3D Cross Rumble
- Dynasty Warriors VS
- Kingdom Hearts 3D
Other announcements include a pink version of the handheld that will be available in Japan in October, and a software update that will let 3DS owners capture 3D video footage. The update will be available for both North America and Japan in November.
In terms of games, a number of notable Nintendo franchises will be making their way to the 3DS, some we knew about, some we didn't. Both Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land will be coming to both Japan and North America later this year, with Super Mario 3D Land set to hit North American store shelves on November 13 and MK7 on December 4. Other Nintendo titles primed for release in 2012 include Mario Tennis, Paper Mario, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, Kid Icarus (which was originally supposed to launch this November), and a new Fire Emblem.
Not to be forgotten, DSiWare will be getting a new, free game just in time for the 25th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda. Between September 28 and February 20, users can download an anniversary edition of the four player co-op game Four Swords Adventures, originally found in the GameBoy Advance version of A Link to the Past.
As for third-party support, Capcom will be bringing the next installment in its hugely popular Monster Hunter series to the handheld with Monster Hunter 4, which currently doesn't have a release date. Square Enix, meanwhile, announced a new handheld RPG without the words "dragon" or "fantasy" in the title. Bravely Default: Flying Fairy will be an all-new IP that utilizes augmented reality cards and is expected to come to Japan sometime next year.
And then there's the Wii. Nintendo revealed a few new details about just how big a game the upcoming Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be. According to a tweet from Nintendo of America, Skyward Sword "could have" between 50-100 hours of gameplay, and its story will include more than 100 minutes of cut-scenes. However, it looks like this may have been an issue with the Japanese translation.

Beyonce did everything but levitate yesterday at her press conference. But then again, you know she's saving it for the main show. That was just her opening act. Beyonce opens for herself. With the national anthem, live-live this time, and not just half-live, and now considered this year's version of the mic drop belly rub.
Last year it was Madonna. Oh what? You've totally forgotten haven't you? Beyonce has made it so that you will never and should never remember any other performer in the history of halftimes at the Super Bowl.
Seriously though, ego-off right now, Madonna vs Beyonce, who wins?
Since she's so in your face at the moment, and because she's still only 31 (!!!), Beyonce might have the edge. Here's a woman who considers every word, gesture, step, and hair toss a moment to preserve for history. It is a conscious way of life, as she explained yesterday, when asked about the upcoming HBO documentary (that she directed and produced):
It was time.
It was necessary.
To show a human side.
And she doesn't mean "human" like, oh people think I'm a perfectionist machine, so I wanted to demonstrate that I can be soft...
No, no, no...
She means "human" as in mortal. As in Beyonce who's mostly Immortal. Beyonce the demi-God. Beyonce, deity on earth come to walk among her people, only higher off the ground, and always under the best light. If you haven't already, take 18 minutes at lunch to watch this presser all the way through, required media for the Faculty Of Celebrity Studies. It's how she speaks -- with the benevolence and patience of the divine, gracing and humouring her subjects. It's how she looks upon her people -- not so much at them but OUT AT them, like before her is presented a sea of devout souls, all gathered to hear her gospel. Will she be great on Sunday? If you ask her, there's no doubt, not only because she worked so hard, but also because in her mind, it's the f-cking scripture.

Ms. Nurse: "Well... Yeah..."
Dr. Grumpy: "What's wrong?"
Ms. Nurse: "I'm really scared to talk about it... I took something that a friend gave me. I don't have my own prescription, so I'm worried about losing my nursing license if people find out."
Dr. Grumpy: "Well, I'm not looking to get you in trouble, and to help you I need to know what you've already tried."
Ms. Nurse: "It was" (looks down) "Ibuprofen."
Dr. Grumpy: "Did you say Ibuprofen?"
Ms. Nurse: "Yes. Oh, God, please don't report me. I know it was wrong."
Dr. Grumpy: "Um, it's over-the-counter."
Ms. Nurse: "You don't understand! This was the prescription-only 800mg! It wasn't even my prescription! I'm sorry, I can't believe I did something like that. I'm really not that kind of person!"
Dr. Grumpy: "I wouldn't worry about it."

visual walkthrough installing Sabayon
Pre-installation Preparation
Make a note of your current hardware
Though not 100% necessary, it's a pretty good idea to know the specs of your computer. This can help to pre-plan and with some decisions later on during the installation. If you currently have MS Windows installed, there are several ways by which you can check some basic details of your system:
- Start menu / all programs / accessories / system tools / system information
- Start menu / control panel / system
- Start menu / control panel / Hardware (tab on top) / device manager
- Start menu / my computer
Here are some questions to keep in mind while searching these areas:
How much hard drive space do I have ?
How much memory do I have ? (physical ram also know as ram)
This is helpful for choosing your swap partition later.
Which CPU do I have ?
This will help you decide if you choose a 64bit or 32bit operating system. You may need to go to the Intel or AMD websites to check your architure. Or you may be able to find it by using your favorite search engine.
Other Pre-install Considerations
Do I want to use 2 operating systems (such as Sabayon and Windows) on 1 computer?
If you do you may wish to read the following links:
How to dual boot Sabayon and Windows
Dual booting with hard disk encryption
I want to keep my current Windows installed, but I need to make room on my hard drive to install Sabayon
Do I need to wipe my hard drive clean ?
Even if you delete files and over write a hard drive with a new operating system, old and potentially sensitive data can be retrieved using forensics. If you are looking for a truly clean start you may wish to read the following link and wipe your hard drive properly:
Is security and hard drive encryption important to me ?
You may not know the answer to that question until a jealous lover decides to kill you in your sleep or some government agency arrives at your home to take you and your pc away ;). If you think privacy and security are important to you then read the following link:
Which kind of desktop do I want ?
KDE, GNOME, Fluxbox, LXDE, Openbox, Xfce, and Enlightenment are window managers for Linux. They have different functions and appearance. All can work well and have certain advantages. At this point it seems KDE and GNOME are more widely used. I think new Linux users migrating from Windows may find KDE and the classic style kickoff menu (start button and programs list) a little more familiar.
Final preparation for installation
Choose a download mirror
These are different servers in various countries and regions where you can download Sabayon. Usually the closest country or region will download faster, but not always.
Click iso/ from the list
Too easy
Choose the correct iso you want
This is more tricky as the list is quite long. Look at the file names carefully. The file name will incude Sabayon_Linux; version number (as of this writing, 5.4); cpu type (amd64 for both intel and amd 64bit cpu's; or x86 for 32bit processors); and desktop type (E17 for enlightenment; G for GNOME; K for KDE; LXDE); and file type (we want .iso).
If you are unsure than use x86 for 32bit. 32bit operating systems will work on 64bit CPU's, but NOT vice-versa.
Note: files that end with .iso.md5 or .iso.pkglist or .iso.torrent are NOT the iso file. The file image you need to burn to disk will end in .iso
Example: Sabayon_Linux_5.4_amd64_K.iso
If there are errors during installation you may want to come back here and downlown the .iso.md5 file that is a partner to your iso file. The .iso.md5 file is a small file to check the integrity of main iso file you downloaded.
Example of the partner checksum file: Sabayon_Linux_5.4_amd64_K.iso.md5
For instructions to use the md5 checksum read the following link:
How to check integrity of a live dvd
Burn the iso file to dvd
It is very important to know that you do NOT simply burn the iso file as a data file to the dvd. There are many drink coasters out there from those that have. The selection on your dvd/cd coping software needs to say "burn as image". This selection is not usually on the front of the control panel, but more likely buried under a tab somewhere. For more information on burning an iso to disk try the following links:
Booting Sabayon LiveDVD Image from a USB Device
If you prefer to use a usb or flash drive instead of dvd to boot Sabayon you can try the following links:
It is easier though to install syslinux, format your flash drive in FAT32 or ext2/ext3 (the latter is required for LiveDVD images) and use unetbootin GUI tool on the iso image.
Change the boot priority in bios
BIOS is the pretty, black screen with white words you see when you first power on or restart your computer. Normally your hard drive is set to boot first. In order to boot your iso DVD you need to change the boot order so that the computer will boot from the cd/dvd player or usb first. To change the boot order you need to enter BIOS. To enter BIOS you need to push either DEL, F1 or ESC at the very beginning of start up/restart, depending on which BIOS and motherboard you have. After you have entered BIOS you will need to use the arrows on the keyboard to move around and find the settings for boot order/boot priority. After you have made changes you will probably need to push F10 to save and exit.
Begin Installation
No doubt your eye balls are square and head is buzzing from hours and/or days of reading. At this point we should be ready to rock.
Power on/Restart with Sabayon live DVD loaded in your player.
The computer will power up and begin to load the DVD. It will bring you to a loading options screen. There will be 3-5 choices. You have about 45-60 second to choose, unless you press a key to stop the timer. The top option should be the main loading choice. Selecting this will not install, nor will it hurt your hard drive. It will simply load you to a desktop environment. It could take 3-5 minutes to load to desktop. After it loads you can check that the internet works and play with the system a bit. Keep in mind that the look and feel may be a bit slow and clunky because you are merely test driving on the DVD. After installation, look and feel will be much better. When you're done goofing off and decide for a more serious comitment:
Click the "Install Sabayon" icon located near the top left corner
The first few screens of the installer should be pretty straight forward even for novice computer users.
Select Root password
In Sabayon, as with most GNU/linux systems, root is the equivalent of "admin" in ms windows systems. This password is important and should be different than user password or any other pw. Linux is fundmentally safer in part because the root password is needed to make changes to important files. Viruses can't auto run and go crazy through your system because you would have to physically log in as root and then run the virus yourself, but we're too smart for that, right? Always initially log into Sabayon or any linux as user, never as root.
You need root password to open Rigo (the GUI package manager for Entropy) and to run certain commands in the terminal.
Select user name, full name, and user password
User name is the name you will need at the login screen everytime you start your computer. (no spaces or funny symbols)
User password is the password you need at the login screen everytime you start the computer.
Full name can be whatever you want including the same as user name. It can also have spaces, etc.
Advice on the hostname:
Create partition scheme
When installing, Sabayon offers a standard partitioning scheme using LVM, and leaves Windows partitions untouched.
If you wish to manually partition, or add mountpoints, please see: HOWTO:_Manual_Partitioning_with_Sabayon_Linux
For GPT partitioning: HOWTO:_Install_Sabayon_with_GRUB2_and_GPT_on_a_New_System
Currently mbr style partitioning is the most widely used and and easiest for for nearly all os's to install to, though GUID (gpt) are gaining more acceptance in mac and latter newer versions of ms windows. Mbr partitioning is the recommended and least problem free at the moment for linux and bsd systems. With mbr partitioning, hard drives can have 4 primary partitions, but can have many logical and extended partitions. Logical/extended partitions are like imaginary branches off of one primary partition.Each LVM group or extended partition group will use 1 of your 4 primary partitions.
Regardless of which scheme you choose, you will need atleast one partition. One partition must contain / (root) partition. Other partitions are optional, but /swap is recommended (/home will be inside of root if you dont make an addition partition). Both /home and swap can be installed as logical partitions off of the /(root) primary partition if need be.
The simplest and most efficient way is to install the entire system to / on 1 primary partition. You will get a warning that swap is not installed, but a swap folder can be added after installation if you want it.
If for some reason you wish to install using multiple mount points or partitions i reccomend the following: I tend to pad partions with a little more volume than is required. You can adjust to leaner amounts if you are thin on hd space, but I recommend the following:
/boot 100mb ext4(32mb-100 is fine)
/ (root) 30,000mb ext4(about 30 gb) 18gb-30gb is fine, but /var will be inside /root, so I put more here.
/swap 1028mb – 4096mb swap(1gb-4gb) this should be about the size of your physical memory.
/home 40,000mb -200,000mb+ ext4(40gb-200gb+) This generally should be the biggest partition as all your personal things will come here, photos, films, games, music, bla bla bla.
If you want an education try reading the following links:
During the installation you will arrive at a page on the install asking "what kind of installation do you want ?". You can make your own decision about this, but i would recommend Create Custom Partition Scheme. In this way you can set the partitons and partition sizes to fit your needs. Upon selecting custom partion setup you will come to a new page. Click on the freespace or partition you want to change or install to, so that it is highlighted. Once the freespace or partition is highlighted you can then click one of the buttons to either Create, edit, or delete that particular freespace/partition.
For disk encryption you need atleast 2 primary partitions. /boot and / (/root). In this way all other directories such as /home and /var will be installed inside of / (/root). /boot must be unencrypted when you encrypt / (root). For extra security a 100mb partition can installed to a usb flash drive and install /boot to it., though not necessary.
In using LVM groups I have found i can not see swap after installation using LVM. As of yet, I'm not certain if swap is working with LVM groups. I do know swap works on its own primary partition. I have reports it also works on an extended partition. If you have a small amount of ram you may wish to take this into consideration.
Dual Booting
For dual booting Sabayon Linux and ms windows try the 2 links below:
Boot Loader Option page
After you have selected your partion and clicked ok, it will begin formatting and writing to disk. Within a few minutes you will arrive at the boot loader option page. You will want to leave the check box enabled for the bootloader. In most cases you will just click "next". If you are dual booting you STILL leave the check box enabled, but you may wish to click the "change" button. Dual booters should read the above link.
People booting only 1 operating system, Sabayon Linux, (and some dual booters) can click next without changing anything.
Finish DVD Installation
After the boot loader menu you will arrive at the final installer screen. Kiss your lover. Hug the kids. Say a small prayer. Cross your fingers and . . .
Click "Reboot" !
Remove the DVD when the BIOS begins.
Install the Gentoo way
The Aftermath: Post-installation upgrades and configuration
With a little luck you will have passed the grub bootloader menu and now find yourself at the login screen.
Enter user name and user password
After you load to desktop you will need a few minutes to let the system check for updates(it takes a while on a new install). When its finished a yellow shield icon will appear in the notification area near the clock.
Don't fall out of your chair !
It is not uncommon to have 300-1000 updates needing to be done on a fresh install. Remember Sabayon is a rolling release so we get new stuff a lot. After the initial install, update, and upgrade the number of updates at once will be way smaller. You don't need to update yet. You can take some time to play and look around.
For users new to Linux that choose the KDE desktop environment I recommend a few quick changes before updating.
Convenient settings for new linux users using KDE desktop
For users new to Linux that choose the KDE desktop environment I recommend a few quick changes before updating. Apply changes in the following order.
Close the small desktop inside of the desktop
This can be annoying, causing disappearing/reappearing icons and widgets. Besides the fact it has a seperate picture in the top left corner of the screen. To get rid of it do the following: Right click on open space on the desktop. Click "activities" in the small drop down box. A new task bar will have opened along the bottom of the screen. There are 5 square icons to the left in the task bar. Click the top right corner of 4 of the icons(2-5) so that there is a red x in the corner of each of the 4 icons. Close the task bar.
Add the home folder to desktop
This can make life easier when you are looking for things or need a place for downloading or putting your other things. To do this click the start button. Move the mouse pointer on top of the "computer" icon. Right click on the "home" folder. Click "add to desktop" in the small drop down box. You may need to move the icons manually if they dog pile on eachother. Now you can click and open the home folder(it should have your user name). After you open it you can right click and add new folders for your downloads, photos, etc inside of the home folder.You will find the home folder is the default for office document saves and other downloads.
You can also go to the start button > system > Dolphin (file manager). Right click Dolphin and add to desktop or panel, whichever you prefer.
Change KickOff launcher(start button) to classic style
The Kickoff menu is nice, but terribly slow to use when you want to get things done. The classic menu is awesome, fast, and easy. To change it simply right click the start button and click "switch to classic style menu".
Add a terminal (command line tool) to either desktop or quick launch bar
Yes, Sabayon has a GUI installer (Rigo). But you are still going to want to use the command line on occasion, especially with a fresh install. Also using the command line in Sabayon is quite a treat on the eyes. All the text when using the command line is multi colored, making it very enjoyable to read and look at. It is also makes finding details in all the text so easy compared to black and white text. Click the start button and put the mouse pointer on "system", find "Konsole" in the list. Right click Konsole and "add to desktop" or "add to panel".

{{ event.description }}
Goslar is a medieval town in Lower Saxony and serves as a regional hub to the wider Harz area. It lies at the foot of the Harz Mountains (highest elevation 3,744 feet). Goslar is situated some 150 Miles West of Berlin. The nearest cities are Brunswick, Hanover, and Magdeburg. Goslar is much older than Berlin and worth a visit. If you are interested in history, outdoor pursuits (especially hiking), tranquility and nature, then Goslar is the right spot for you.
Goslar was founded in 922 AD, although it is widely assumed that there had been a settlement since pre-Roman times. The town is famed for its magnificent gates and ramparts, the medieval Imperial Palace, Romanesque churches, its half timbered guild houses, the ancient Rammelsberg ore mine... and its witches, the last of which was burned at the stake in 1657 AD. In medieval times the city was a major producer of armouries and coins—the raw ores for their manufacture came from the Rammelsberg mine just outside the city's walls.
What, Ram + Goat = Goslar? Not quite...! According to legend, Ramm, a knight to Henry's son Otto the Great, tied his horse to a tree, halfway up the Rammelsberg, to continue hunting in the undergrowth. In anticipation of the return of its owner, the horse scraped with its hoof in the ground laying open a ledge of silver so rich that it took over a millennium to mine. Hence the mountain and mine were called the Rammelsberg, after Otto's knight Ramm. As the wife of knight Ramm was called Gosa, they named the town Goslar in her honor.
Emperors, Dukes, and Townsfolk Essentially Goslar was a Free Imperial City, which was under direct control of the Emperor and there were no regional feudal overlords, who were in charge of the city until the end of the Thirty's Year War. Thus the citizens were largely left to their own devices, since the emperors had mostly better things to do than to sit in their Imperial Palace at Goslar. There were several other imperial palaces throughout the Holy Roman Empire, where the emperors held court. The only problem for the city's craftsmen was that their Free Imperial City ended right behind the city's walls. Unfortunately for them, the mine they depended upon, for the delivery of the ores, was immediately outside these very city walls. So they had to lease the rights to the mine from even such regional feudal overlords, the Dukes of Brunswick, who would have fancied it, if the city was theirs. This inevitably let to regular skirmishes between the Dukes and their men on the one side, and the burghers on the other side, which were not resolved until the end of the Thirty's Year War in 1642 AD with the Goslar Accord.
Goethe's Goslar Gothic Ghosts. With the onset of the Reformation in 1517 AD Goslar has escaped the interest of the emperor, and its riches declined so that Goethe, Germany's national polymath, writes in 1777 during his visit to Goslar: "Imperial City, which rots 'inside' and 'with' its privileges!"
This might be a reason why the Rammelsberg Mine and Town have been so uniquely preserved that they hold UNESCO World Heritage Status.
Goslar is the Harz region's festival town, culminating in the annual award of the "Imperial Ring" .
If you own a plane, a helicopter or even a flying saucer then you might wish to land at the club airport Salzgitter-Drütte in the immediate vicinity (24 miles) of Goslar or the Brunswick-Wolfsburg Airport. Maybe try the disused military airfield at Goslar itself, but don't get yourselves into troubles over this.
However, as a lesser mortal you need to take a plane into either
and make your way to Goslar by car or by train. Both airports are connected to the S-Bahn network of their respective cities from where you can take a train to Goslar. A further option is flying into Frankfurt Airport (FRA IATA) and taking the train from there
Goslar can best be accessed by regional trains from Hanover or Brunswick. In Hanover and Göttingen there is access to Germany's ICE (Inter City Express) network. Getting to other cities might require changes along the way, often in Hildesheim, Salzgitter or Kreiensen.
From Paris/London/Brussels/Cologne take the Autobahn A44/E331 to Kassel and take the A7/E45 in the direction Hamburg at the Kassel intersection. For further directions see below.
From Madrid/Rome/Vienna/Zurich/Munich/Frankfurt take the A7/E45 and leave it at either the intersection Seesen. Take the Bundesstraße B248 and then the Bundesstraße B82 to Goslar. If you wish to take the route via the Harz mountains, exit the A7/E45 at Northeim and take the Bundesstraße B241 via Osterode, Clausthal-Zellerfeld to Goslar.
Coming from Moscow/Warsaw/Prague/Berlin, take the A2/E39 to the intersection Braunschweig and head via the A395 in the direction of Bad Harzburg. At Vienenburg you leave the A395 and take the Bundesstraße B241 to Goslar.
Arriving from Amsterdam/Düsseldorf/Ruhr Basin take the A2/E39 to Hannover and at the Intersection Hannover leave the A2/E39 and take the A7/E45. For further directions, see below.
Coming from Copenhagen/Stockholm/Oslo/Hamburg/Bremen/Hanover you take the A7/E45 in the direction Frankfurt. You exit the autobahn at Derneburg-Salzgitter (63) and take the Bundesstraße B6 (mostly two-lane) to Goslar or you exit at Rhüden (66) and take the Bundesstraße B82 to Goslar.
N.B. Goslar is a popular destination for bikers who enjoy riding their bikes through the Harz mountains.
Bus services to and from Goslar are relatively frequent and efficient. The regional bus operator Brunswick Regional Transport RBB runs a website , which assists you with finding the relevant connection. In Goslar, their hub is in front of the central railway station. Here you also find a small travel centre, where staff can provide you with further advise. Essentially, the most frequent routes are between Goslar, Seesen, Harzburg-Spa, Salzgitter and Clausthal-Zellerfeld, with less frequent services to other destinations in the Upper Harz (lines 440, 450, 462, 831, 838, 841, 842, 850, 861, 879). The RegioBus lines are the express ones—the others are slow. The handy thing is that the RBB forms a partnership with other regional public transport operators, so that you only have to buy a single transferable ticket. Thus, there is no need to purchase a new one every time you change your train or bus.
The town's centre is relatively small and can easily be navigated by foot. If you, however choose otherwise, then:
Goslar is not only the perfect location for meetings but also provides various shopping facilities to let a convention day wind down with a pleasant shopping spree. Short distances and a centrally located pedestrian zone invite sauntering and shopping. A wide range of small exclusive stores provide the opportunity to find something unique. Combine your convention stay with a one-of-a-kind shopping experience.
There is plenty of night-life in the town, equally divided between the traditional German Kneipe Pubs and theme bars. Some clubs take fun-photos of their visitors. So if you do not wish to be photographed, tell them.
There are more than 20 private pensions and room rentals as well as almost 100 holiday apartments catering to this price range in Goslar. It is best to contact the Tourist Information or see the official website [1] for details.

The name Torres is of Spanish origin.
The English meaning of Torres is A name given to a person who lived in or near a tower, from the Latin "turris
There are many indicators that the name Torres may be of Jewish origin, emanating from the Jewish communities of Spain and Portugal.
When the Romans conquered the Jewish nation in 70 CE, much of the Jewish population was sent into exile throughout the Roman Empire. Many were sent to the Iberian Peninsula. The approximately 750,000 Jews living in Spain in the year 1492 were banished from the country by royal decree of Ferdinand and Isabella. The Jews of Portugal, were banished several years later. Reprieve from the banishment decrees was promised to those Jews who converted to Catholicism. Though some converted by ...

GLENWOOD SPRINGS Planners and engineers in the Colorado River Basin say a parched future could be in store for the region during the next 50 years as they prepare for a seven-state meeting in Las Vegas next week.
Senior Colorado River District water resources engineer David Kanzer said Tuesday communities in the basin are living beyond their means. He says it is worse for river communities downstream.
Planners and engineers have spent three years and $4 million to forecast water supply and demand scenarios from now through 2060, and they say the consequences could be dire for the river with headwaters in Colorado.
The bottom line is, demand is ahead of supply. We are living beyond our means, and the gap is greatest in the Lower Basin, Kanzer said.
Kanzer presented a summary of the Colorado River Basin Water Supply and Demand Study to the Colorado River Districts 15-member board during the boards quarterly meeting on Tuesday in Glenwood Springs, hoping to come up with a negotiation strategy before the Las Vegas summit. The public was not invited.
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and Bureau of Reclamation officials have warned that the Colorado Rivers historical 15 million acre-feet per year flow has been reduced by 12 years of drought to about 12 million acre-feet.
Officials say an acre-foot can meet the water needs of up to two families per year.
Water interests and the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming together lay claim to all the water in the river and then some.
Officials are concerned the river wont be able over the next 50 years to meet demands of a regional population now about 40 million and growing.
Mexico also has a stake in the river, and officials set new rules to share Colorado River water south of the border and let Mexico store water in Lake Mead near Las Vegas.
According to The Glenwood Springs Post Independent, the study is an effort to face up to a future in which millions more people, along with farms and industry, will be fighting for the limited supplies. Kanzer said by 2060, the gap is expected to be as much as 8 million acre-feet a year.
In the meantime, water regulators are trying to educate the public about the water shortfall that Western states will face.

The Observer Effect in Full Effect
I was very excited to see the "fully" mic'd game between the Indians and the D-Backs today, even though Seth and I had been joking about the Observer Effect all week – the idea that you can't really observe a thing without somehow changing it. I figured the players would be very conscious of the microphones and that that would kill a lot of their chatter, but I was hoping for a little taste of the banter on the field. Yeah, not so much. The players were so self conscious – and/or were barraged with reminders to watch their *#!% mouth, grannie back home could hear every word they said – that they didn't say much of anything that wasn't of a strictly business nature…or maybe it was the game itself that subdued them? Today the role of Captain Obvious was played by Kirk Gibson: We just aren't doing many things well today.
Still, it was an interesting experiment and we did hear and few worthwhile, useful and even entertaining things:
- Hearing the base coaches talk to their runners. Even already understanding many of the strategies, hearing how these talks actually work was very cool. Steve Smith was especially good at this and his conversation with Shin Soo Choo following the line drive that had him hitting the decks was hilarious.
- The umpires. By and large I think they were the most comfortable with the microphones and, while at times a few of them were playing for the back row, we heard reasonably natural sounding banter and job talk. It was interesting to see how much they just chat with players and coaches in between innings and sometimes in between plays.
- So, can the players hear the fans? If the sounds from this game are any indication, oh boy can they! …or at least those fans seated closest to the field. And those whiney little kids begging for a ball sounded obnoxious from where I sat. Not all of the kids by any means, just those ones.
- Jason Kipnis cracked me up. I get the impression that only some of the singing was intentional, like maybe he often sings to himself in the infield and wasn't thinking about the mic at first. He looked genuinely uncomfortable when caught, but then did not hesitate to ham it up. And go Adele, making it on to more players frequent play lists – or so one would infer – than I would have thought possible.
- With all of the mics, the sounds of the ball smacking gloves and flying off the bat were a lot closer to the sounds of actually being there at the game. Granted, I can usually hear these things reasonably well during Angels home broadcasts, but this was better.
- While I have no doubt the managers also held back a lot because of the mics, there were a few great Kirk Gibson and Manny Acta one liners, like the Gibby quote I mention above.
- Although the players dialed down the banter to near mute, as the game played out they became more and more comfortable with their usual business talk, and that was in and of itself educational. They're better at it, obviously, but in calling the ball, calling the plays and encouraging teammates, they don't sound too terribly different from baseball and softball players of all ages playing the game at any level.
I would love to hear what the players really say to one another on the field. In fact, if I could choose a mutant super power it might be some sort of controllable mutant hearing – hey it would be useful in business too! But, barring a bite from a radioactive owl, I don't see that happening any time soon. And I certainly don't want to change the way they communicate with one another for anything more than the occasional exhibition game. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to continue making up conversations for them like I did last season:

Jim O'Neill, 55, the Goldman Sachs honcho who coined the term "BRIC" to describe the emerging-markets juggernaut of Brazil, Russia, India and China, surprised the asset management world on Tuesday with his announcement that he will retire this year.
Finishing out his career as chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, O'Neill is best known for pinpointing the BRIC phenomenon of the emerging markets, where the more powerful nations' economies and growth strategies increasingly dominate world GDP and draw the interest of Western investors.
In a joint announcement, Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein and President and COO Gary Cohn credited O'Neill with identifying revolutionary economic trends, particularly the BRIC concept.
"Jim's BRIC thesis has challenged conventional thinking about emerging markets and, as a result, has had a significant economic and social impact," Blankfein and Cohn said in a statement.
Tim O'Neill and Eric Lane will continue to co-head GSAM. The role of chairman was created for O'Neill when he joined the division in 2010, and there are no plans to replace him. He has not yet given an exact date for when he will leave.
Writing about O'Neill's retirement for the Financial Times, Stefan Wagstyl called him "a larger-than-life figure who made a big impression wherever he went, be it in the foreign exchange trading room where he started his financial career or at Manchester United, the football club he has long supported and once tried to buy."
At this point in his early retirement, O'Neill will focus on a number of nonprofit groups with which he is already active. He is chairman and a founding trustee of the London-based educational charity SHINE and also serves on the board of Teach for All and a number of other education charities.
O'Neill may move into other more high-profile positions at some point. He was named as a potential successor for Mervyn King as governor of the Bank of England last fall, but declined to apply.
Born in 1957 near Manchester, England, O'Neill began his career at the Bank of America in 1982 and joined Goldman Sachs in 1995 as a partner, co-head of Global Economics Research and chief currency economist. Prior to joining Goldman, O'Neill was head of research, globally, for Swiss Bank Corporation (SBC) from 1991 to 1995.
In recent years, O'Neill has cut a figure as author and well-traveled commenter on the world at large. In his book "The Growth Map," published in early 2012, he detailed his personal account of the BRIC phenomenon and noted that the BRIC countries have exceeded the expectations he had of them in 2001.
"The aggregate GDP has close to quadrupled since 2001, from around $3 trillion to between $11 and $12 trillion. The world economy has doubled in size since 2001, and a third of that growth has come from the BRICs," he wrote.

Jelastic has announced the general availability of its Platform-as-Infrastructure (PaI) 2.2. The multi-language PaaS adds Ruby support, a new API, and a one-click app marketplace.
Ruby architects and developers can deploy new or legacy applications to the cloud without any code changes, making it theoretically usable for more demanding agile development and DevOps practices.
Jelastic PaI 2.2 offers BYOA (Bring Your Own App) for Java, PHP, and now Ruby. The company confirms that there is support for any Ruby app, Ruby version, or library engine including Ruby on Rails, Sinatra, Rack, Ramaze, Exex.JS, all ruby gems, JRuby, and GIT/SVN, without the need to change or recode, eliminating vendor lock-in and saving countless hours of recoding.
In terms of high-performance Ruby support, Jelastic offers the latest Ruby app servers with load balancing. For example, Jelastic offers configuration of Unicorn, Puma, or Passenger with NGINX via the GUI or API.
According to the firm's own press statement: Unlike other PaaS providers, Jelastic's Ruby support offers full access to configuration files for performance tuning and customization, providing leading flexibility for developers and DevOps.
Looking at the new one-click app marketplace, this offers 200+ apps for set-up and deployment from Jelastic's GUI, automatically installing and configuring the application. ISVs and hosting service providers can also use a Jelastic "widget" to provide one-click access to applications for their customer. Beta support for Python and support for JDK version 8 also feature.
"There is strong, growing demand among developers, IT operations, and DevOps teams to leverage multiple languages and multiple infrastructures without sacrificing time-to-market, quality, or uptime — the type of service provided by Jelastic," said Jay Lyman, 451 Research Senior Analyst. "With today's market driving faster software development and deployment cycles, we expect the trend of polyglot programming and this demand to continue."

Surprise-Inside Egg, Ham and Cheese Muffins
- Preparation Time15 mins
- Cooking Time55 mins
- Serves6
- DifficultyMedium
Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 175°C. Line a jumbo 6-cup muffin tin with jumbo liners and generously grease with cooking spray.
Cook the eggs: Put 6 cold eggs in a medium saucepan. Add enough water to cover by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil, cover, remove from the heat and let sit for 4 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Gently crack the eggs so that they fracture all over and let them sit in the water for at least 20 minutes.
Gently peel the eggs under cold running water. (Older eggs are easier to peel.)
Make the muffin batter: Melt the 2 tablespoons of soft butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter starts to foam and cook, add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add the ham and 1/4 teaspoon salt and continue to stir until browned in spots, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the thyme. Cool in the skillet.
Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl.
Whisk together the milk, sour cream, 4 tablespoons of the melted butter and the 3 remaining eggs in a separate small bowl. Fold the egg mixture, onion mixture, Cheddar and Parmesan into the dry ingredients until just combined (don't fret if there are lumps; it means your batter isn't over-mixed).
Divide half of the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Stand one egg in each cup, nestling it slightly in the batter. Spoon the remaining batter on top of the eggs, using the back of your spoon to spread the batter to make sure each egg is completely covered.
Lightly brush the top of the batter in the cups with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Bake until the muffin tops are golden, 35 to 40 minutes. Let the muffins rest in the hot muffin tin for at least 10 minutes. Remove, cut each muffin in half and serve warm, or transfer to a rack to cool to room temperature, cut and serve.

Blue Jays - 411 010 100 - 8 11 0The Jays struck for four runs in the first for the second night in a row.
Red Sox - 110 000 050 - 7 14 1
Boston rallied furiously with two outs in the eighth, highlighted by J.D. Drew's three-run home run to right-center (that changed the score from 8-4 to 8-7) and had runners on first and second with two outs in the ninth, but Kevin Youkilis was caught looking at strike three.
Toronto smacked six home runs, including three by Adam Lind. Buchholz (5-8-7-1-4, 79) gave up the first one (to Jose Bautista) on his first pitch of the night, and allowed five of the six.
The first three Jays against Clay: HR, 1B, HR. It was the first time a Sox pitcher had allowed two home runs in an inning before recording an out since John Burkett allowed bombs to Jason Giambi and Bernie Williams in the first inning on July 21, 2002. The last player to belt three taters in a game against Boston was Frank Thomas (all off Tim Wakefield, on September 15, 1996).
A win tonight clinches the wild card.
And the Red Sox have seriously abused the rookie Romero in four starts this year: 26 hits and 17 walks in 17.1 innings. He's got an 8.83 ERA and a 2.481 WHIP. Boston has hit .377/.506/.652/1.158 against him.

The euphoric cover of the current issue of Barron's signals the bull market's end is nigh, says John Hussman in his current comment to Hussman Fund shareholders.
"When the cover of a major financial magazine features a cartoon of a bull leaping through the air on a pogo stick, it's probably about time to cash in the chips," he writes.
While the portfolio manager and former finance professor has demonstrated rhetorical flair in the past, his current weekly comment puts the Barron's cover in the context of the entire series of the magazine's "Big Money Poll," arguing that it is a genuine contrary indicator.
In 2000, Barron's reported on its Big Money Poll with the title "Still Bullish!" (and "Dow 13,000" as part of the illustration). The Dow, then valued at 10,7333.91, went on to lose about 40% of its value in the 2000-2002 bear market.
Another buoyant, if more subdued, headline, "Dow 14,000?" was published after Barron's May 2007 Big Money Poll.
"The Dow did advance another 6% to reach 14,000 by October 2007," Hussman writes. "By November (the poll is semiannual), bulls were outnumbering bears by 2 to 1, and the headline ran "The Party's Not Over." In fact, the market had already peaked, and proceeded to lose over half its value in the 2007-2009 bear market."
The current Barron's cover's title—with the large print headline "Dow 16,000!" is the most bullish yet, mirroring the mood of professional investors surveyed in the magazine's current Big Money Poll. Writes Barron's:
"In our latest survey, 74% of money managers identify themselves as bullish or very bullish about the prospects for U.S. stocks—an all-time high for Big Money, going back more than 20 years."
Hussman's letter, titled "The Endgame is a Forced Liquidation," associates these cyclical market peaks with investor leverage, and points out that margin debt has risen above 2% of GDP for the fourth time in history.
The three previous times include 2000 and 2007—peaks followed by massive corrections; the third instance of such high leverage occurred in 2011, followed by a mere 18% market correction.
Margin debt today "is more than 2.3% of GDP, the highest level in history with the exception of the approaches to the 2000 and 2007 market peaks," he says, noting the 49% and 57% market losses that followed.
The "forced liquidation" Hussman predicts would result from the "inability of investors to simulataneoiusly exit overleveraged positions that were all based on the same investment thesis."
That thesis is the current iteration of the "new economy" argument about productivity growth, the Internet, globalization, historically high profit margins.
But, asks Hussman, "with a record 74% of Wall Street strategists now bullish, who is left to embrace further speculation, and how deep will the required losses be to induce the conservative 26% to absorb the overleveraged exposure of the exuberant 74% when forced liquidation becomes necessary?"
The fund manager also ominously notes that plunges in gold shares tend to occur "slightly in advance of plunges in the general market," seeing last week's historic single-day 30% drop in the gold market as a "precursor." Consequently, Hussman notes his funds are fully or partially hedged (depending on each fund's investment objective).
With a market crash imminent and more favorable return prospects "over the coming quarters," Hussman advises investors:
"Soon enough, I expect that investors will be relieved of the need to desperately reach for yields that are hardly distinguishable from zero. This is not the time to swing at pitches so low that they brush the grass."

Germany's other LEGOLAND Discovery Centres are in Oberhausen and Duisburg.
At the world's first LEGOLAND Discovery Centre you can look forward to a Lego paradise bursting with creativity, games and interactive fun. This vibrant world of multi-coloured bricks is an ideal year-round attraction, particularly for families with younger children aged three upwards.
Playing with the famous plastic bricks is turned into a fantastic family experience at the LEGOLAND Discovery Centre, part of the Sony Center on Potsdamer Platz in Berlin. The focus is firmly on fun, games and LEGO adventures in around 15 different sections: LEGO enthusiasts can see Berlin's iconic sights in miniature at the MINILAND, and then it's time for some action, as eight children at a time get to steer their own pirate ships. When they hit volcanoes and islands with the ship's cannons it triggers fountains of water and special effects. The secret of how the famous bricks are made is revealed in the LEGO factory. LEGO works of art can also be seen at Dragon's Castle. But what would a LEGO attraction be if you didn't have the chance to get creative yourself? In the Build & Test Centre, creative minds get to make their very own racing cars and then put them through their paces on a race track, while the houses built by mini architects are subjected to earthquakes to test their stability. For girls that might not be so keen on cars or earthquakes there is a special building zone decked out in pink. Children who are still too small to build or who just want to let off steam can explore the climbing maze, master the mini climbing wall or dive into the ball pit. Younger children will love the Duplo Village and Princesses' Palace with their giant-sized bricks.
Young designers can visit the Model Builders Workshop on their own or with a parent. Here they are shown how to put together all kinds of figures. The finished models can then be bought for a few euros. Another highlight is the 4D cinema, a multi-sensory experience packed with surprises and special effects. The LEGO Discovery Centre features a packed programme of special events and promotions, including in the school holidays, at Halloween and at Christmas. There's always something new to discover! In the LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Shop you'll find all the latest LEGO products as well as fantastic souvenirs.

text: Proper Thermometer Placement These drawings illustrate proper placement of a food thermometer in meat, poultry, thin foods, and combination dishes. (Note: To avoid burns, remove food from direct heat for testing when necessary.) Meat When taking the temperature of beef, pork, or lamb roasts, the food thermometer should be placed midway in the roast, avoiding the bone. When cooking hamburgers, steaks, or chops, insert a thermistor or thermocouple in the thickest part, away from bone, fat, or gristle. If using a dial bimetal thermometer, read "Thin Foods" below. When the food being cooked is irregularly shaped, such as with a beef roast, check the temperature in several places. Poultry When cooking whole poultry, the food thermometer should be inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (avoiding the bone). A whole turkey is safe when cooked to a safe minimum internal temperature of 165 °F as measured with a food thermometer. Check the internal temperature in the innermost part of the thigh and wing and the thickest part of the breast. For reasons of personal preference, consumers may choose to cook turkey to higher temperatures. If stuffed, the stuffing must reach a safe minimum internal temperature of 165 °F. If cooking poultry parts, insert food thermometer into the thickest area, avoiding the bone. The food thermometer may be inserted sideways if necessary. When the food is irregularly shaped, the temperature should be checked in several places. Thin Foods When measuring the temperature of a thin food, such as a hamburger patty, pork chop, or chicken breast, a thermistor or thermocouple food thermometer should be used, if possible. However, if using an "instant-read" dial bimetallic-coil food thermometer, the probe must be inserted in the side of the food so that entire sensing area (usually 2-3 inches) is positioned through the center of the food. To avoid burning fingers, it may be helpful to remove the food from the heat source (if cooking on a grill or in a frying pan) and insert the food thermometer sideways after placing the item on a clean spatula or plate. Combination Dishes For casseroles and other combination dishes, place the food thermometer into the thickest portion of the food or the center of the dish. Egg dishes and dishes containing ground meat and poultry should be checked in several places.

The Securities and Exchange Commission levied civil charges Friday against hedge fund advisor Steven Cohen, founder of SAC Capital Advisors, for failing to supervise two senior employees and prevent them from insider trading under his watch.
The SEC's Division of Enforcement says Cohen received "highly suspicious information" that should have caused any reasonable hedge fund manager to investigate the basis for trades made by two portfolio managers who reported to him — Mathew Martoma and Michael Steinberg.
Cohen "ignored the red flags and allowed Martoma and Steinberg to execute the trades" in 2008 in two pharmaceutical companies as well as Dell, the SEC says. "Instead of scrutinizing their conduct, Cohen praised Steinberg for his role in the suspicious trading and rewarded Martoma with a $9 million bonus for his work."
Cohen's hedge funds earned profits and avoided losses of more than $275 million as a result of the illegal trades, the SEC says.
The SEC's Enforcement Division is seeking to bar Cohen from overseeing investor funds. His firm has already agreed to pay more than $615 million his firm has already agreed to pay for the alleged insider trading.
After learning about red flags indicating potential insider trading by his employees, Cohen allegedly failed to follow up to prevent violations of the law.
According to the SEC's order instituting administrative proceedings against Cohen, portfolio managers Martoma and Steinberg obtained material nonpublic information about publicly traded companies in 2008, and they traded on the basis of that information.
The SEC charged Martoma, of the SAC affiliate CR Intrinsic, and the doctor who tipped him with insider trading last year, slapping the affiliate with a record fine of more than $600 million.
Steinberg, a portfolio manager at Sigma Capital Management, was charged earlier this year. Sigma Capital agreed to pay nearly $14 million to settle the charges.
The SEC says that its investigation found that in his supervisory role, Cohen oversaw trading by Martoma and Steinberg and required them to update him on their stock trading and convey the reasons for their trades. "On at least two separate occasions in 2008, they provided information to Cohen indicating their potential access to inside information to support their trading. However, Cohen stood by on both occasions instead of ascertaining whether insider trading was taking place."
According to the SEC's order, "Cohen watched Martoma build a massive long position in the stock of two pharmaceutical companies — Elan and Wyeth — based on their joint clinical trial of a drug with the potential to treat Alzheimer's disease. Cohen allowed this despite repeated e-mails and instant messages to Cohen from other analysts at CR Intrinsic advocating against it."
The analysts, the SEC says, "questioned whether Martoma possessed undisclosed data on the results of the trial. Cohen responded by saying it was 'tough' to know whether Martoma knew something, but that he would follow Martoma's advice because he was 'closer to it than you.'" The SEC alleges that after months of building up the massive position and being bullish on both Elan and Wyeth, Martoma had a 20-minute phone conversation with Cohen on July 20, 2008. According to Cohen, Martoma said that he was no longer comfortable with the Elan investments that CR Intrinsic and SAC held.
"Despite Martoma's abrupt change in view and red flags that he likely received confidential information about the clinical trials from a tipper, Cohen failed to take prompt action to determine whether an employee under his supervision was violating insider trading laws," the SEC says.
The next morning, the SEC says that Cohen oversaw the liquidation of his and Martoma's positions in Elan and Wyeth and the accumulation of a short position instead.
According to the SEC's order, Cohen also supervised Steinberg while he was involved in insider trading of Dell securities in August 2008. "After being looped into a highly suspicious email between Steinberg and other firm employees reflecting the clear possibility that they possessed material non-public information about an upcoming earnings announcement at Dell, Cohen again failed to take prompt action to determine whether Steinberg was engaged in unlawful insider trading," the SEC says.
Instead, "Cohen liquidated his Dell shares based on the recommendation of Steinberg, who continued short selling Dell shares in his Sigma Capital portfolio based on the confidential information."
Dell's stock price dropped sharply after its Aug. 28 earnings announcement, and funds managed by Cohen's firms profited or avoided losses totaling at least $1.7 million.
Says the SEC: "Three hours after the earnings announcement, Cohen e-mailed Steinberg: 'Nice job on Dell.'"

FARMINGTON A Farmington police officer who shot and killed a man this week was involved in two previous shootings, including a fatal one in 2006 that raised questions about racism and strained the citys relations with Native Americans.
Farmington police say both previous shootings by Sgt. Shawn Scott were ruled justified.
In the 2006 incident, Scott shot and killed a 21-year-old Navajo man who authorities say charged Scott as police responded to a fight in a store parking lot.
In the most recent shooting, police say Scott shot 49-year-old Mark Chavez of Farmington on Tuesday, The Daily Times of Farmington reported.
The newspaper reported Chavez made a phone call to lure police to a residence and then was shot when he threatened Scott with what police described as a blunt-impact weapon.
Scott originally tried to stop Chavez with a stun gun, but it was ineffective, Farmington Police Department Lt. Taft Tracy said.
New Mexico State Police are investigating. Lt. Tim Johnson said the agency wont elaborate on Chavezs weapon until its investigation is complete.
In June 2006, Scott shot and killed Clint John of Kirtland. Police said John was intoxicated and involved in a physical fight with his girlfriend in a store parking lot.
Police said Scott shot John when John grabbed the officers baton and threatened him with it. But Johns family said John struggled with Scott after the officer beat him with the baton.
Navajo leaders organized rallies in Farmington to protest Johns death, but a police investigation concluded the shooting was justified. The shooting prompted Farmington to form a Community Relations Commission in December 2007 to deal with race and cultural relations.
In 2009, a federal jury ruled against a lawsuit by Johns family that claimed Scott acted beyond his rights and used excessive force in the shooting.
The third shooting that Scott was involved in occurred in 2009, when he shot a suspect in the hand. That shooting also was ruled justified, Tracy said.
Scott has been a Farmington police officer since 1996. He previously was an Aztec police officer.
