No need for that; these things only become clear in

I was under the impression the chairs had discussed this

Not a big deal... the list of editors can be updated any

The schema specification goes to some trouble to be agnostic as to the
location of a schema document, and indeed allows schemas to be represented
in other forms (e.g. in some encoded form in a database, or synthesized in
memory on the fly from other information).    As Philip Chan has correctly
told you, most current implementations expect schemas in the form of files

may let you provide the schema from some other source or in some other

‘S-VHS’ Teaser: The Kids Aren’t All Right

S-VHS Teaser
Magnet Releasing

The first teaser for the found-footage horror anthology sequel ‘S-VHS’ (that’s a mouthful) has arrived, and we’ve gotta admit — we’re a little scared.

‘V/H/S’ was a hit on the festival circuit last year, bringing together various genre directors to create nightmarish tales of horror as viewed through “found” VHS tapes. The tales were woven together with the story of a house robbery gone awry and the mysterious VHS tapes the robbers found within.

This time, two private investigators search for a missing student, leading them to break into his seemingly abandoned house and discover a stash of enigmatic VHS tapes. We get a glimpse of what appears to be that house in the first teaser below — there’s several TVs and a videotape that says “Watch.”

What follows are glimpses of the segments from directors Simon Barrett, Adam Wingard, Eduardo Sanchez, Gregg Hale, Timo Tjahjanto, Gareth Evans, and Jason Eisener, including some scary stuff happening to kids at a birthday party… in broad daylight. That’s the one place where everyone should be safe! There’s cake there!

We’re intrigued by the brief teaser, and we hope to hear good things when the film premieres at Sundance in the next week. Thanks to Shock Till You Drop for the teaser:

Thanks to everyone who showed up for last nights Bloggerment and congrats to Kronsdat on taking it down.I went out on the final table bubble.... which would have been a better achievment if more than ten players had actually started!I just hope Nacho doesn't eat the monkey...

After sifting through the millions of comments and emails ( thanks Rosie and Krons!) it's been decided to take the Britbloggerment to Full Tilt for the moment.Look out for a new banner soon.8pm start,$5.50,Turbo and password still donkament.The game is open to all,not just bloggers so fire it up and prepare for donkery next Sunday.I'm looking forward to it already!

After the Bloggerment my evening at the tables went reasonably well.I scraped a 4th in one $16 and crashed out of four more before finally taking one down.Over at Party I played about six $22's and won a couple of 'em to keep my decent run there going.I just wish Sharkscope worked at Party as I'd like to be able to see accurate stats for numbers of games played/roi etc.

I've signed up to the same hand replayer Mr Cloud uses to replay hands on his fine blog and I'll try and remember to save more hands I feel are worth a second look.Here's one from about a month ago as a tester to start things off... ( Party $22 single table turbo)

Tabernacle as Reflecting the Garden of Eden

When studying the tabernacle and temple in the Old Testament, it is hard to miss the allusions to the Garden of Eden. Perhaps this is because the Garden serves as a proto-temple in the Bible.

Temple and the Presence of God

In the Old Testament, the Tabernacle/Temple was the location where mankind would meet with God. While these locations would be sacred, God had plenty of regulations in place in order to atone for and cover mankind’s sins. Still, these regulations limited the amount of interaction man could have with God.

Biographical entry Riden, Donald Keith (1959 - 2005)

FRCS 1996; BDS London 1981; BM Southampton 1988; LDSRCS 1982; FDS RCS 1994; FRCS (OMFS) 1998.

5 May 1959
Liverpool, UK
19 February 2005
Oral and maxillofacial surgeon

Surgeon Commander Donald Keith Riden RN was born in Liverpool on 5 May 1959, the son of Alfred Donald and Mavis Irene Riden. He attended West Derby Comprehensive School in Liverpool from 1970 to 1977, and then went on to study dentistry at King’s College Dental School, winning the Wellcome award in pharmacology and therapeutics in 1980 and the annual oral surgery prize in 1981. With an increasing interest in oral and maxillofacial surgery, which had developed from his early days at dental school, he entered Southampton University Medical School in 1984, qualifying in 1988.

Serving in the Royal Navy, he undertook his house surgeon appointments in urology, orthopaedics, general surgery and accident and emergency at the Royal Naval Hospital, Haslar. He had short appointments in endocrinology at Southampton General Hospital and in general surgery at the Royal Naval Hospital, Plymouth. After an ENT job at RNH Haslar, he returned to RNH Plymouth to start his oral and maxillofacial training, becoming a registrar in October 1993 and gaining his FDS in 1994. Subsequently he entered the south west specialist registrar rotation in Plymouth, Frenchay, Southmead and Bristol Royal Infirmary from 1994 to 1999. As is customary with RN medical officers, he saw service overseas and at sea, serving in Gibraltar, on HMS Tamar (Hong Kong), HMS Ariadne, HMS Minerva, HMS Nelson and HMS Illustrious. He was on active service in Kosovo from 2000 to 2001. He loved to travel, particularly in the Far East and was able to serve in Hong Kong, China and India as a visiting registrar.

He was awarded consultant status by the Defence Medical Service Consultant Approval Board of the College in 2000. His first posting as consultant oral and maxillofacial surgeon and postgraduate clinical tutor was to RNH Haslar. In 2003 he was appointed to the Joint Services Hospital, the Princess Mary Hospital, RAF Akrotiri, Cyprus, where he remained until illness intervened.

He published papers on dental pain and, during his training rotation, wrote Key topics in oral and maxillofacial surgery (Oxford, Bios Scientific, 1998) and contributed to the UK national third molar audit in 1998.

In his later years he honed his skills as both a facial trauma and head and neck cancer specialist, developing techniques for facial reconstruction and neck dissections. He was a particularly good teacher of house officers and SHOs, and enormously enjoyed this role. He thoroughly enjoyed his time in the Royal Navy, especially on overseas deployments.

He had a lifelong interest in music and was a lover of classical music and opera. He was an accomplished classical guitar player. He regularly sang with a variety of groups, choral unions and barbershop, and was a member of Portsmouth Choral Union, Solent City Barbershop Club and Island Blend, a Cyprus barbershop group.

He married Leslie Carol, a teacher and college librarian, in August 1981. They had three sons, Daniel James, Andrew Mark and Nicholas John. He died on 19 February 2005 from carcinoma of the oesophagus.

John Cavanagh on American Experiment

John Cavanagh, Executive Director, Institute for Policy Studies, Washington, DC

I had a lot of fun reading your fascinating 15 pages.  You are absolutely right in the framing: the right is winning because it has good stories.  We need good stories in response.  Some quick reactions.

  1. The Prosperity Story:  I also think that the key to their story Iine summed up in WalMart's tagline: "Everyday low prices."  They promise prosperity even to the poor by saying that the free market will give you everyday low prices.  And their story makes sense to people because WalMart gives you everyday low prices.  Our old story used to say that monopoly was bad because big firms would drive out small ones by slashing prices.  Then, when the small firms were gone, the monopolist would raise prices.  WalMart drives out all the competition but it doesn't raise prices.  So, I find myself giving talks where I say to people, we have a values choice: we can have a WalMart economy with everyday low prices but it comes at the price of decency and fairness.  It is screwing workers here and abroad and it is destroying communities.  We can afford to pay a bit more for the values of community, fairness, and decency.  But it is a choice.  I like everything else you have written, but I think you need to add this in.
  2. The Security Story:  Right now, I would focus hard on pointing out to people how Bush's Iraq policy is increasing terrorism in the world and it makes Americans and people around the world less safe.  But I agree with you that we need to frame our stories in terms of how to make Americans and the world more safe and secure.
  3. The "Sacred" Story:  This is hard for progressives but you are right to place it front and center.  I think our 10 principles in the Alternatives book is an attempt to lay out an alternative set of values.  And perhaps we should rename them.
  4. Social Movements: Here I think we have a big story.  You mention that the civil rights and women's movements made the country better.  I think this is vital.  As I look back over the past century, I would say that labor was key to the first third of the century, the peace and civil rights movements to the second third, and the women and environmental movement to the third third.  Each changed the debate, the culture, the measure of right and wrong, and each made the country better and brought us closer to the American experiment.  I think we need to develop this story better.

It doesn't actually generate the same code here (I guess it is good
that gcc gives us this control).

I think my way is (ever so slightly) better because it gets the load
going earlier and comprises one less conditional jump (admittedly in
the slowpath). You'd probably never be able to measure a difference
between any of the variants, however ;)

Lai also did this work too, so I recommend adding something like:

* Frederic Weisbecker <>
* Lai Jiangshan <>

Or something similar.

(Nov 23, 2010) It was reported on November 22, 2010, that the Pan-African Parliament is on the verge of becoming a continent-wide legislative body with the authority to make laws binding on all members of the African Union (AU). (Fred Oluoch, Pan African Parliament Soon to Make Laws Binding AU Members, THE EAST AFRICAN (Nov. 22, 2010), The Parliament is an AU organ established through the Protocol to the Treaty Establishing the African Economic Community Relating to the Pan- African Parliament. The Protocol was adopted in March 2001 and entered into force in December 2003. (List of Countries Which Have Signed, Ratified/Acceded to the Protocol to the Treaty Establishing the African Economic Community Relating to the Pan-African Parliament, AU website, (last visited Nov. 22, 2010).)

Although currently restricted to exercising an advisory role, the Parliament is expected to eventually become a legislative body. The Protocol provides that although the Parliament will be restricted to advisory and consultative powers at the beginning, it should eventually be given the authority to make laws. (Protocol, arts. 2(3) & 11, AU website, (last visited Nov. 22, 2010).) The Parliament, during its Third Ordinary Session (held Oct. 4 -14, 2010), debated its transformation into a legislative institution. (Oluoch, supra.) However, the ultimate decision as to when the Parliament will assume legislative functions, if it does so, and its legislative jurisdiction lies with the Assembly (composed of the heads of State and government of the African Economic Community (AEC)), and it will require an amendment to the Protocol approved by at least a two-thirds majority of the Assembly. (Protocol, supra, arts. 3, 11, & 24.)

The objectives of the Parliament, both in its current status as an advisory body and after it assumes legislative functions, include:

· facilitating the effective implementation of the policies and objectives of the OAU [Organization of African Unity, the predecessor of the AU]/AEC and, ultimately, of the AU;

· promoting the principles of human rights and democracy in Africa;

· encouraging good governance, transparency, and accountability in Member States;

· familiarizing the peoples of Africa with the objectives and policies aimed at integrating the African continent within the framework of the establishment of the African Union;

· promoting peace, security and stability;

· contributing to a more prosperous future for the peoples of Africa by promoting collective self-reliance and economic recovery;

· facilitating cooperation and development in Africa;

· strengthening Continental solidarity and building a sense of common destiny among the peoples of Africa; and

· facilitating cooperation among regional economic communities and their Parliamentary fora. (Id. art. 3.)

Each member state is represented in the Parliament by five parliamentarians reflecting the diversity of political opinions in its national legislative body. At least one of the representatives is required to be a woman. (Id. art. 4.)

Lockheed Martin F-35 Navy Jet Confirms Carrier-Landing Strength Predictions

FORT WORTH, Texas, 06/23/2010 --

A Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT] F-35C Lightning II carrier variant successfully completed testing in which it was dropped from heights of more than 11 feet during a series of simulated aircraft-carrier landings. The tests validated predictions and will help confirm the F-35C's structural integrity for carrier operations.

The jet, a ground-test article known as CG-1, underwent drop testing at Vought Aircraft Industries in Grand Prairie, Texas. No load exceedances or structural issues were found at any of the drop conditions, and all drops were conducted at the maximum carrier landing weight. The drop conditions included sink rates, or rates of descent, up to the maximum design value of 26.4 feet per second, as well as various angles and weight distributions. The tests were used to mimic the wide range of landing conditions expected in the fleet.

"The completion of the drop tests is an important step in clearing the way for field carrier landing testing and shipboard testing at high sink rates –a necessary feature for a carrier-suitable strike fighter," said Larry Lawson, Lockheed Martin executive vice president and F-35 program general manager. "This testing also validates the design tools and analysis used in building a structurally sound, carrier-suitable fighter."

This final drop test follows the recent first flight of the first F-35C.

The F-35 program has about 900 suppliers in 45 states, and directly and indirectly employs more than 127,000 people. Thousands more are employed in the F-35 partner countries, which have invested more than $4 billion in the project. Those countries are the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands, Turkey, Canada, Australia, Denmark and Norway.

Three F-35 variants are under development – the F-35A CTOL variant to replace U.S. Air Force F-16s and A-10s, as well as aircraft employed by seven allied nations; the F-35B STOVL variant to replace U.S. Marine Corps AV-8B Harriers and F/A-18s, U.K. Royal Air Force and Royal Navy Harrier GR.7s, GR.9s and Sea Harriers, and Italian Harriers; and the F-35C carrier variant to replace U.S. Navy F/A-18s.

The F-35 Lightning II is a 5th generation fighter, combining advanced stealth with fighter speed and agility, fully fused sensor information, network-enabled operations, advanced sustainment, and lower operational and support costs. Lockheed Martin is developing the F-35 with its principal industrial partners, Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems. Two separate, interchangeable engines are under development: the Pratt & Whitney F135 and the GE Rolls-Royce Fighter Engine Team F136.

Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security company that employs about 136,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The Corporation reported 2009 sales of $45.2 billion.

F-35 Positioned For Drop TestCG-1, the ground test article for the Lockheed Martin F-35 carrier variant, is positioned for its final drop test at Vought Aircraft Industries in Dallas, Tx. The series of drop tests were designed to mimic landing conditions on a carrier deck and resulted in no load exceedances or structural issues. Completion of the drop testing clears the way for carrier landing testing and shipboard testing at high sink rates. (Photo courtesy of Vought Aircraft Industries)

Yes, my nickname is based on the fact I enjoyed Final Fantasy - and that I had renamed the main character of FFX as Micah in my copy which has given me a rather unique internet nick for years. I don't know that I consider myself a "fan", but I have enjoyed many RPGs by Square over the years - Chrono Trigger, Xenogears, and Legend of Mana come to mind.

As to deducing the possible clue, it was just a shot in the dark. If Stanstar had still had the game open, yes would have led to progress (saving a tiny bit of time) and no would simply have led to producing the available clues.

How Tina O’Brien, Lorraine Kelly and Boots supported athletes share their unique Father-daughter bonds to inspire women

Every dad has his individual quirks that can make us roll our eyes in red-faced embarrassment or ruefully smile, and it’s these things about them that we love.

Lorraine (her photographs in this piece are from her own archive) commented: “My dad has always been my hero. He and my mum were only 18 when they had me, and they made a lot of sacrifices and worked really hard to ensure that me and my younger brother never wanted for anything. My dad loves science and astronomy and some of my earliest memories are sitting in front of the black and white TV watching The Sky At Night and The Twilight Zone.

When I was five he bought me a telescope and I’ve been fascinated by the night sky ever since. A real ‘My Dad moment’ that sticks out for me is watching the moon landing with my dad. Even now, whenever I’m stargazing, it brings my dad to mind straightaway.”

She continued: “Like most dad’s it is really hard to buy him a present. I usually get him books, chocolates or whisky. But this year, I’m going to surprise him with the Ted Baker’s ‘Ted’s Tool Box’. It will appeal to his more manly Scottish side and will also come in useful when he goes on holiday this summer.”

Tina said: “The moments that stand out the most from my childhood growing up with my Dad is that we would always go kite flying in the park. We would choose a really good stunt kite and we would spend hours flying the kite together. If the kite ever had a collision with a tree my dad was amazing at detangling it from the branches and then at the end of a fun-filled day, he would put me on his shoulders and carry me home. My Dad always shared his time with me and I feel so lucky that trips to the park, conker hunting and duck- feeding stick out as some as my most favourite ‘My Dad moments’ as a child. Whilst I’m not a kid anymore, I now have these ‘My Dad moments’ whenever I watch my dad play with my toddler.”

Tina continued: “It is important to me to get my dad something special that reflects how unique a bond we share and gives him a little reminder of that, so I am going to buy him the large photobook. I am going to pack it full of pictures of us enjoying our kite-flying adventures in the countryside so he has something to cherish.”

Sophia Warner, Sprinter also shared her special relationship with her dad:

“My dad and husband have been instrumental to my success and are both so supportive in different ways. My husband Haydn is an amazing dad (as well as husband) enabling me to live my dream and picking up the pieces by caring for our two young children – while I train full time. My dad has always been my backbone and my voice of reason and I have never got too old to phone him up and ask for his advice!”

Joanne Jackson, Swimmer, commented: “There is (quite literally!) no way I would be where I am today without the amazing support my dad has given me. He has always been there for me, whatever I need. That includes being a great handy man!! Nothing is ever too much trouble for him. A key ‘My Dad moment’ for me would be watching him scale a ladder to show all the dads how it should be done.”

Jess Varnish, Track Cyclist, said: “I first got into cycling through my dad. He was a world champion at cycle speedway so I used to go watch him race. He has been my inspiration. My dad has such an infectious passion for the sport which made this so appealing to me. Any athlete will almost definitely encounter difficult times on their rise to the top and I believe my dad’s positive attitude and support have kept me going. I experience a ‘My Dad moment’ whenever I hit the track!”

Hannah Miley, Swimmer said: “People often ask me how I cope with my dad being my coach, but I enjoy it. He knows me perfectly so he knows how to handle me if I have my odd moments. It’s nice to know I can take him on this journey. To have that kind of relationship, that bond we’ve had has stayed, grown stronger even. My ultimate ‘My Dad moments’ are tied up in jumping into the pool and gathering up the determination needed to strive for the best result possible.”

Between 30th May- 26th June, Boots has a whole host of inspirational gift ideas, both in-store and online, so treat your Dad with a gift you know will make him feel appreciated. What better way to capture one of those special ‘My Dad Moments’ for good than with a personalised photo gift, by visiting

Re: Laptop help

You'd think there would be a decent, and somewhat objective online article or web page out there that provides recommendations for folks wanting to go to laptop for looping. I think such an article would be a good addition to the LD page. I wish I had time to write it. Maybe someone can work up a draft and have the group provide input on the final version. ???
----- Original Message -----

So many options. I'm sure you'll get a flood of responses here, but I'll make only a few general recommendations and personal opinions:
It doesn't matter whether you go mac or pc (that argument is now defunct), unless you have your heart set on one particular piece of looping software (e.g., Mobius is pc only and others are restricted to one platform or another)
For software, check this out for options: http://www.krispenhartung.com/software-looping.htm (some are free and perfectly fine, others cost little to a lot)
I would go for an audio interface that is firewire (make sure your laptop as firewire too) and also MIDI on the same breakout box (check out presonus, motu, m-audio, RME, etc...or just search on audio recording interfaces until you find something that has those features).
Whether you go mac or pc, make sure you get one with the Intel duo core in it...I'd go for 2GHz and 1gig of RAM at least.

Subject: Laptop help

So, supposing I wanted to move my looping to the computer. As a practical question (and assuming I am starting from nothing), and trying to keep costs down, what do I need?

I mean, what CPU, how much memory, what audio/MIDI interface do I need to achieve acceptable latency to loop? I have a slight bias toward Mac, since I am kind of drawn toward Kenaxis and Lisa -- but I could go PC easily enough (I'm sure such things exist over there too). I don't foresee needing to run a lot of VSTs while I loop -- basically, just a machine to run a looper like Sooperlooper or Mobius, and an interface that won't lag so badly I struggle to play along with it. Then hook up an FCB1010 and go to town.

I thought the slicer WAS pretty severe actually, on my box I can get
it down to just clicks... INFACT you kind of have 2 slicers, cos the
Filter can be used for one, if you dont have any Resonance set... so
it doesnt sound too much like a filter... then you can have different
beat division set for the filter and te slicer.. so it aint just a
pump pump pump sound more like a Pumpy pump pumpy pump rythym!!

I put a search on EBay for mine... and actually alot came up... But be
aware that ther are 2 versions, only difference being that the PRO

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A group of city-elected and law enforcement officials went to  South Los Angeles on Friday to help clean up communities affected by some of the city’s most notorious gangs.

Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer, along with the LAPD and the FBI,  joined hundreds of volunteers to pick up trash and paint buildings as part of a joint Community Impact Initiative in the wake of Operation Stone Cold, Operation Red Dawn, Operation Thumbs Down and other recent sting operations.

Volunteers scrubbed away graffiti, picked up trash and bulky items, and removed overgrown brush in approximately 50 alleys located between Crenshaw Boulevard, Normandie Avenue, Jefferson Boulevard and Martin L. King Jr. Boulevard, according to authorities.

There will be volunteers on hand to assist with any homeless encampments uncovered during the operation.

Feuer told KNX 1070 NEWSRADIO the initiative is designed to move young people away from lives of violence and delinquency and into productive members of society.

“We have to continue to be on the offensive,” Feuer said. “Stopping crime isn’t just about arresting people, it’s about making sure that neighborhoods shine.”

Residents and community members are invited to take part in the event, which starts at 11 a.m. at Normandie Avenue and Roland Curtis Place.

We Stand On Shoulders

tbtThere sat dad.

He had left that morning for a two week long, over the road run.

We we all mentally set for the long, boring weeks ahead of us.

Boring, but it paid enough money to cover the bills.

Mom sat there, too.  Mom was stressed.

Dad called us together. He had decided that he was done driving truck. We kids were growing up too fast. He said he’d finally figured out that were were going to be broke whether he worked or not, so he may as well be rich in family.

I’m not sure any of us believed him.

What ensued was the most formative 3 years of my life.  Without training in any other career, Dad began working a series of menial tasks, often making little more than minimum wage. To fill the gap, he started a series of businesses and picked up odd jobs or worked overtime.

He destroyed his credit.

We ran through a rash of MLM schemes. Then some sales opportunities. He got hired as a radar technician and we traveled the country with him for most of a year, seeing over 20 states.

Not only did I see him give up everything that the world values — cars, home status — I spent countless hours with him. I’d be up with him before dawn, throwing newspapers to pay the electric bill. Or working at night, scrubbing floors at a doctor’s office to buy gas for next week’s commute. Or running booths on the weekend to promote whatever MLM product we were trying that time.

And the whole time he taught. Taught us about life. We talked about what traits to look for in a wife. What to look for in a career.

What dreams looked like and how to chase them.

How opportunities disguised themselves and how to still nab them. time flies too fast

We discussed finances and savings and retirement. And how some people save money from each paycheck and eventually don’t have to work anymore because they can live off of the interest.

We discussed passive income ideas and marveled at those who successfully pulled them off.

All the while watching him work his heart out (literally) for us.

At the age of 41, he had a heart attack.

Most of you have enjoyed following my success as I’ve become an internet marketer and stay-at-home dad.

father daaughter danceWhat you don’t see is that my brother and sister also work from home with similar — if not more — success than myself.  All three of us have been married for nearly 5 years (that’s better than 20% of the marriages out there), and have pretty impressive mates.

We learned sacrifice from watching him. We learned what passion really looks like. And what it means to give your all for those you love.

Today, he’s back over the road.  After a crappy divorce (which ones aren’t?) the 4 younger siblings aren’t quite as keen on him as we were.

So he’s loving them the best he can: by providing for them.

When people ask me if they can learn how to do what I do, I say “yes”.

But unless you had a dad as passionate as mine, you probably won’t have the inner drive to do this gig.  (And even if you did, you probably didn’t have two grandparents as great as mine)

But whether you had a good dad or a bad dad, you have to remember that the challenges we are to face are unique to us. And the good Lord gives us a lot of strength for putting up with the nonsense of others.

So for all of you with non-existent dads, my heart goes out to you. Forgive them. Pour everything you can into your kids, and stop the cycle.

And to those of you who have stellar dads, don’t forget to call ‘em.

Here’s to the men who went before us, and the sons who follow.

    Powerful story. Thank you for sharing about your father. Even though it sounds like he didn’t find much success in business, the legacy he left his family is invaluable.

  2. Debi says:

    This is lovely, Quinton, and it’s my second time reading it. I’m reminded of Jim Carrey’s recent MUM commencement speech, which I suspect you might enjoy watching, too. Thank you for sharing this snapshot of your life!

Don't forget, tomorrow's Seviren Lang League is at Buffalo Trace to prepare for Saturday's Buffalo Trace Open presented by Will Burke.

Come on out, get ready for the tournament, check out the Buffalo Gallows on #1 if you haven't played it yet.

6:00. It's singles handicap night, which is probably the best way to do it to prepare for the tournament since you'd like to be playing your second shots from the same place you'll probably be playing them Saturday.

What’s Next For The UFC 169 Main Card Winners?

What’s Next For The UFC 169 Main Card Winners?

UFC 169 is over and fans were treated to another night of exciting fights.The event, which was the UFC’s forth this year, took place in the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey and was aired on Fox Sports 1 following the prelims on Fight Pass.

The first fight on the main card was an absolute war. Abel Trujillo and Jamie Varner went at it in a back and forth in a fight, which provided both men with “Fight of the Night” bonuses. “Killa” finished the fight in the second round after nearly being stopped himself, knocking out Varner with a brutal right hand to earn him “Knockout of the Night”.

Ali Bagautinov got another big win in the featherweight division as he took out Brazil’s John Lineker. The win puts the Russian to 3-0 inside the UFC, with him not losing since May 2011.

In the nights only heavyweight fight, Alistair Overeem avoided going 0-3 in his last three fights, by picking up a decision win over former UFC champ Frank Mir. After the fight Overeem oddly called out Brock Lesnar, whom he previously battered at UFC 141.

Then in the co-main event featherweight champ Jose Aldo defended his title against “The Bully” Ricardo Lamas, to remain unbeaten inside the Octagon. With the win Aldo picked up his ninth straight title defence.

Controversy surrounded the main event, after Herb Dean questionably stopped Renan Barão and Urijah Faber’s bantamweight title fight in the very first round. After being dropped by the champion, Faber looked like he had recovered and attempting a takedown. But Barão was landing strikes to the former champion and Dean saw enough to wave off the fight.

Another UFC event means more big fights to make. Here are the matches I think the UFC should make for last nights main card winners:

Fighter – Abel Trujillo
Weight Class – Lightweight
Ranking in the UFC – Outside of top 15
Who they should fight next – Al Iaquinta

Trujillo got the biggest win of his career last night with his knockout over Varner, but it very nearly could have gone the other way. “Killa” is an exciting fighter to watch and his win over Varner was impressive, but he needs to test his skills against another tough fighter before he takes on any of the divisions elite. For that reason I suggest a fight with Al Iaquinta.

Iaquinta also picked up a big win last night in the prelims, against Kevin Lee. The win over Lee puts Iaquinta to 3-0 in the Octagon and earns him a step up in competition next; Trujillo would be a perfect test for him. The two will be looking to fight again at the same time and the fight would likely be a war. Iaquinta vs. Trujillo is the fight to make.

Fighter – Ali Bagautinov
Weight Class – Flyweight
Ranking in the UFC – 7th (yet to be updated)
Who they should fight next – Demetrious Johnson

With his win over Lineker last night, Bagautinov is now 3-0 inside the UFC and on an 11-fight win streak. All of his wins inside the Octagon have been dominant performances and I think Bagautinov’s win over Lineker should grant him a shot against Demetrious Johnson.

“Mighty Mouse” just fought in December, so the two would match up in terms of time scales. As the champ has beat the majority of the contenders in the division and the rest all being booked up to fight, this is the best matchup Joe Silva can make.

Fighter – Alistair Overeem
Weight Class – Heavyweight
Ranking in the UFC – 9th
Who they should fight next – Stefan Struve or Mark Hunt

Originally I was going to suggest Overeem fight Junior Dos Santos for the Brazilian’s return. But after Overeem’s performance last night, does anyone really think that will be a competitive fight? “The Reem” needs to cement himself as a top heavyweight again before he fights someone like JDS, for that reason I think he should take on Stefan Struve or Mark Hunt.

Struve is currently waiting on the all clear to fight again after being sidelined with a heart condition since early last year. If all goes well “Skyscraper” should be fighting again before summer and a fight with “The Reem” would make a very interesting fight.

If that fight doesn’t work out then, I think Overeem should have a rematch with Mark Hunt. Overeem previously beat Hunt back in Pride but both men have drastically changed since then. A fight between Hunt and Overeem makes sense and would likely produce fireworks.

Fighter – Jose Aldo
Weight Class – Featherweight
Ranking in the UFC – Champion
Who they should fight next – Chad Mendes

Aldo picked up his ninth straight title defence with his win over Lamas but the fight again raised questions about the champs cardio. Lamas, like many other opponents Aldo has faced, dominated the champ in the last five minutes after being beaten up for four rounds. The UFC and Aldo want him to fight Anthony Pettis next, but I don’t think we’re ready for that fight yet.

First of all, Pettis hasn’t even defended his belt yet and he needs at least one title defence before he looks for a super-fight. Second, Aldo still has other challenges left at featherweight; the main one being a rematch with Chad Mendes.

Aldo has already knocked out Mendes but “Money” has been on a tear since then, winning 5 straight with four knockouts. Give Mendes’ his rightfully earned shot and if Aldo beats him again, he can move up to fight Pettis.

Fighter – Renan Barão
Weight Class – Bantamweight
Ranking in the UFC – Champion
Who they should fight next – Dominick Cruz – winner of Francisco Rivera vs. Raphael Assuncao

Controversial stoppage or not, Barão was dominating Faber and he needs to take on a different challenge at bantamweight. Faber will come back and most likely get another shot, but for now Barão needs to take on someone else.

While I would love to see Barão take on Dominick Cruz, I also think the former champ needs to get a win under his belt before he challenges the Brazilian.

The most logical match for the Barão now, would be for him to fight the winner of Rivera and Assuncao who fight later this month. Both men are on impressive win streaks and would provide a difficult test for Barão.

What fights do you think should be made after last night’s action?

    I disagree with a couple of statements made. I don't think Baugatinov has what it takes to beat Johnson, but a number one contender math between him and Dodson is in order, as Dodson gave the champ a great fight. As for Aldo, he was dominating half of the fifth round and I think it's time for talk of his cardio to stop. He did not gas even remotely enough to give Lamas a chance. As for what he does next, looks like the Pettis fight is going to happen and it makes sense. What does Aldo have left to prove at featherweight? All that's left is rematches and he destroyed both Mendes and Swanson already

  • http://lowkickmma.com/author/holycheapshit holycheapshit

    Bugautinov – Benavidez or Ian McAll.
    No title shot yet. I would love to see Bugautinov agains a fighter like Uncle Creepy a taste of his own medicine.

    Abel Trujillo – Okay he got past Varner, so give him an opponent like Edson Barboza, who redeemed himself from the Varner loss. Or let him fight some wild cards like Nate Diaz, Melvin Guillard or Joe Lauzon to see if he got just got "lucky".

    Alistair Overeem- A hard one and I'm not fine with picks like Struve or Hunt. Struve needs to get back in the mix after his illness and Hunt deserves a lighter opponent after the Bigfoot Silva slug fest of the year 2013. A match up against Miocic or Soa Palelei come up to my mind.

    The Aldo and Barao picks with Mendes and Cruz make sense. Although a rematch with Urijah would clear things up.

    Barao vs Godzilla? This kid is not winning, he is destroying people. Maybe fight was stopped early, maybe not, but a devastating finish was going to Come.

    Although I like the Hunt vs Overeem fight and would like see that down line I think Alistair vs Stipe Miocic makes more at the moment,I don't think Stipe is getting the credit he deserves,would also like to see Junior vs Overeem eventually.

    • http://lowkickmma.com/author/BusterEvans Buster Evans

      I agree mate, I just don't think Mir deserves to fight Miocic at the moment. If anyone should fight JDS it should be Miocic, Overeem doesn't deserve to fight him imo.

    I hope The Reems call out to Lesnar was enough to wake him up. If not, Lesnar should watch their last fight again. But Dana is a clever businessman and will probably feed Lesnar Stipe, Struve or Mir just to sell PPV's. If Lesnar was smart he would put his opponents in his contract before signing. I hope Lesnar gets the message and just stays with WWE

Part 305: 1353: Goldentooth's Rampage

The Merry Marauder posted:

Goldentooth is a Harrowed horseman sent back in time to kill Ortossi! I wouldn't want to be the Issarite who has to explain Windslayer's already dead!

So I was wrong. Huh! Cool.

Well, I guess we hid in our tula shivering like children, while the personification of death attacked our neighbors.

Korstardos completed his trading mission... he was offered the unimpressive, "Flesh Man," which makes attempts to resurrect more successful. I've never cast resurrect and don't plan on ever casting it, but it's a treasure and I have nothing better to spend our goods on, so I paid ninety seven goods for it.

Sun indeed "helps ripen our crops" which I presume means boosting our crop output. The new ritual is, as always, a mystery.

Your traders go to visit the clan attacked by Jaldon Goldentooth, and find devastation there. The Wolf clan has seen one in five of its warriors slain, and many others wounded. Its fortifications have been severely damaged. The raiders drove off many herds of animals and looted the steads.

Demand tribute from them.

Give them food.

Give them trade goods.

Lend them the services of your weaponthanes.

Send carls to help rebuild their fortifications.

Do nothing.

The other clans will like us if we help the Wolves. That is, so long as our efforts fatten the Wolves for their raids.

If we ask for too much tribute, they will go down fighting. Ask for twenty cows.

If we ask for too much tribute, they will go down fighting. Ask for seventy-five cows.

If we send Carls, our fields will fill with weeds. But that is nothing compared with the losses the Wolves have suffered.

Allow me to entertain them with my japes and fragrant mudpies.

Mavs continue to wait on Rodman

Published: Tuesday, February 01, 2000

DALLAS The Dallas Mavericks would probably have a better chance of getting an answer out of Dennis Rodman if they were inviting him to a party rather than asking him to play in a game.

As of Monday afternoon, the Mavericks were still waiting to hear whether Rodman was ready to return to the NBA or if he planned to continue celebrating being Dennis Rodman.

Neither Rodman's agent, Steve Chasman, nor his publicist immediately returned phone calls to The Associated Press.

The king of self-promotion put his hometown team on hold last week so he could join his friends, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, at Super Bowl parties in Atlanta.

Dallas can only offer Rodman the prorated share of the $1 million salary-cap exception. He loses about $12,200 every game he misses.

Six graduate from Texas Tech High

Published: Monday, May 03, 1999

They came from all across Texas on Sunday. Some had never met before, but they gathered for recognition of the achievement of a common goal high school graduation.

Rachel Velez wants to help people recovering from drug and alcohol abuse, and Andrew Soliz wants to become a surgeon.

Morgan Matlock holds the title of Miss White Settlement and will compete for the Miss Texas crown this summer. Mandy Latham, a wife and mother of a 4-year-old son, wants to be an elementary school teacher.

Andrea Tinney plans to become a medical assistant and Rachel Carter is a transfer student from Trinity Christian School.

The six students became part of Texas Tech history Sunday by being part of Texas Tech High School's first commencement ceremony. They joined the ranks of more than 100 others around the globe with Tech High diplomas, but were the school's first graduates to walk across a stage to "Pomp and Circumstance."

These seniors chose to get a high school diploma from afar, through mail, the Internet and e-mail.

Texas Tech University Independent School District enrolls about a thousand students in all 50 states as well as 13 foreign countries. Many of those students take only a few credits and return to traditional high schools to graduate.

It's conceivable, said Associate Vice Provost Suzanne Logan, for a student to study from kindergarten through a master's degree at Texas Tech and never leave their hometown.

Kara Altenbaumer can be contacted at 766-8742 or kalten@windmill.net

Firstly airports; as a frequent air traveller I have to say UK airports are pretty good, and to be honest I actually like the idea of this scanner no longer will there be inane having to take shoes and belts off, but my somewhat cynical approach to airport security would be less with these machines, as I think they actually work opposed the the current systems which leave me less than convinced.

However, with regards Freedom of Speech, though I haven't watched the video I do entirely disagree with the erosion of Freedom of Speech, as I am a massive proponent of John Stuart Mills essay "On Liberty", and I think he along with Voltaire were very much correct in their assessment of why allowing people to speak freely is of profound importance.

Lucene 3.3.0 contrib-misc API

Misc Tools

Misc Tools

The misc package has various tools for splitting/merging indices, changing norms, finding high freq terms, and others.

NOTE: This uses C++ sources (accessible via JNI), which you'll have to compile on your platform. Further, this is a very platform-specific extensions (runs only on Linux, and likely only on 2.6.x kernels).

DirectIOLinuxDirectory is a Directory implementation that bypasses the OS's buffer cache for any IndexInput and IndexOutput opened through it (using the linux-specific O_DIRECT flag).

Note that doing so typically results in bad performance loss! You should not use this for searching, but rather for indexing (or maybe just merging during indexing), to avoid evicting useful pages from the buffer cache. See here for details. Steps to build:

To use this, you'll likely want to make a custom subclass of FSDirectory that only opens direct IndexInput/Output for merging. One hackish way to do this is to check if the current thread's name starts with "Lucene Merge Thread". Alternatively, you could use this Dir as is for all indexing ops, but not for searching.

NativePosixUtil.cpp/java also expose access to the posix_madvise, madvise, posix_fadvise functions, which are somewhat more cross platform than O_DIRECT, however, in testing (see above link), these APIs did not seem to help prevent buffer cache eviction.
