Misdemeanor criminal charges have been filed against three recent Park City High School graduates for incidents that allegedly occurred inside the school locker room.
PARK CITY — Misdemeanor criminal charges have been filed against three recent Park City High School graduates for incidents that allegedly occurred inside the school locker room.
The men, all 18, were each charged May 29 in Summit County's 3rd District Court with sexual battery, a class A misdemeanor. One of the men faces an additional charge of stalking, a class A misdemeanor.
During a weightlifting class on May 2, one of the men pulled down the shorts of another student twice, according to charging documents. Later, while the student was lifting weights, a second man allegedly "placed his foot on (the victim's) testicles."
The man who had pulled the victim's shorts down then went back "and sat on (the student's) face," the charges state. The third man later approached the student and did the same thing, police say.
The next day, the first defendant pushed the victim into a corner and made sexual threats against him, according to the charges. That man is scheduled to make an initial appearance in court on June 25. The other two made court appearances earlier this week and are scheduled to be back in court on July 9.
Attorney Greg Skordas, who represents one of the three man, said Thursday that his client and the alleged victim are still friends. He characterized what happened as kids goofing around and said it was not an incident of hazing or bullying.
Skordas said his client and the student have actually texted each other since to smooth things over, each saying they never expected what happened to go as far as charges being filed.
A spokeswoman with the Park City School District said the episode was declared as a "safe schools violation."

UPDATE: I wrote this post when Univision & Food Network star Ingrid Hoffman was still involved with this truck. All of the original recipes on this truck came directly from her. Shortly after her departure, many things changed and the food was never the same.
As luck would have it, just as I arrived at Latin Burger and Taco Truck they were in the process of moving to another location. So of course, I followed them. I literally followed right behind them while I read their tweets as to their next location.
They arrive and I miss where they park (because I was paying attention to Twitter) so I need to round the block. I take over the menu and decide, a Latin Macho Burger = Yes, a Pulled Pork Taco = Yes, Fries = Yes.
There are also some awesome made from scratch Sauces like the Red Pepper Mayo and my favorite, the Gauchup. I thought it was Ketchup and Guacamole (that sounds plain nasty) but I was wrong. It’s Guayaba (Guava for the gringos) with Ketchup. It’s a sweet sauce and at first, I didn’t know what to make of it. I dipped a Fry into it and I was trying to grasp the flavor. With each successive dip, I became more and more enamored with it. It’s really good.
The Pulled Pork Taco is a soft Taco (more like a Burrito actually) with Shredded BBQ Pork topped with bits of Avocado, Onions, and Cilantro. It had a great BBQ taste and the ingredients tasted very fresh. I’ll be honest with you, I’m not a fan of Avocado but this “Taco” was right on target. Everything came together well.
The Latin Macho Burger has a mix of Chuck, Sirloin and Chorizo Beef with Oaxaca Cheese, Caramelized Onions & Jalapeños (aka Hottie Onions) and Red Pepper Mayo (or you could go the Avocadolicious Sauce route). It’s not one thick Burger but 2 thin patties cooked on a flat top.
It has a nice fresh bun also. I bit into it and my first thought was, I need to order another one. I stopped long enough to take a picture of the Burger after a few bites.
One of the best Burgers I’ve had this year. It was devastatingly good. It’s different and in this case, that’s a good thing. The Fries were not fresh cut but they were crispy. The Fries also had some seasoning on them, plus I needed them to dip in my Guachup.
Did I go back for a second Latin Macho Burger? I did but I ended up with their Chicken Sandwich (which isn’t always on the menu). I had the option of making it Buffalo Style, which I didn’t take. I had the Oaxaca Cheese and Hottie Onions on it. Good stuff. At one point I was dipping it into the Guachup.
Check out the Latin Burger Truck, it’s a must.
Finally tried it and it was awesome. The only thing I could fault them on was over seasoning the fries. Mine were too salty. Everything else was great.
Had a taco and a burger today and felt they both lacked salt.
I'm thinking they should include little packets of salt and pepper in the take-out orders.
I am also not a big fan of double patties. If I'm that hungry, I would rather have two single-patty burgers.
They should give people the option between a single and double patty burger.
Also, the taco is more like a burrito. They should just close it at one end and call it that.
However, the tortillas they used were very fresh. I doubt these are your grocery store kind.
As someone who spent eight years in the Southwest, a fresh tortilla is essential and it's not always guaranteed around these parts.
I also went there on the 2nd. I had the chicken tomatillo taco and it lacked flavor and salt. I had been there before and it tasted great so I don't know what happened. Also, I found 2 pieces of chicken skin which was not very appetizing, I ended up throwing out half of the taco. The pulled pork taco on the other hand was off the chain and like Carlos said, the tortillas are great.
My friend had the burger and loved it. But the fries, well I wish they were fresh as they say their ingredients are. Those were frozen and they had too much seasoning on them.
wow what a burger and that pulled pork taco is def a hit. Only thing i could see better is putting the pork on top of the burger and just order two of them.
I usually agree right along with your opinions…but this Latin Burger truck was AWFUL!!! The only thing that I said "wow" to was the tortillas. I would of rather of had a BK burger.
OMG epic burger. You hit the nail on the head yet again beast! thanks for continuing to increase my waistline.
My burger was horribly overcooked, no jalapenos, scrap of onion. Pulled pork taco had one leaf of cilantro, one scrap of avocado. No prices posted, either on the truck or website, not worth $9.20 for those two poorly-cooked items. Won't be returning.
I cant believe no one has commented on the CHICKEN MOLE 'TACO' (though I agree it isn't a 'taco' in my opinion) I had it with avocadolicious sauce and my OH MY it was FA-MAZING! it was the first one I tried and it blew me away that I held a high standard for everything else. Though, all the other tacos were just good. I wish I had the mole taco last.
On my next visit I had half the burger (like 3 bites) and my boyfriend wanted the rest. It was good….gotta try a full one next time and def gotta try the 'secret menu' items like the chicken macho!
I can't explain how excited my husband and I were to try Latin Burger. We have heard nothing but rave reviews online so we figured it would be amazing. Our expectations far exceeded the experience. First off, it took over 5 minutes between each order to get the food out. We waited a very long time for two sandwiches and an order fries. There was no line ahead of us, just people waiting for their food. When we got the bag of food, we were salivating. Only to be oh so dissapointed. The pulled pork was good, not great. The Macho is anything but! Flavourless, and where is the jalepeno? I expected a little heat or at least flavour. But bland was the only word to describe the Macho burger. Maybe people haven't been over to Beer & Burger so they don't know what a good burger is. But Latin Burger was VERY dissapointing. Long wait, bland food.
I sampled the chicken mole taco at the St. Patty’s ralley.
The taco was dry, no sign of mole sauce.
WoW, Latin Burger & Taco! What a disappointment was your Macho burger today!!!!! The cheese was not melted, the bun was just slapped on top of two overcooked patties that looked like hey were heated not cooked!
Had the macho burger today it really was awful. Small and totally overpriced at $8. Grill Masters burgers are 100x better.
I had the mini macho burger and it was AMAZING!!!! The fries are also awesome!!!!!
I’m gonna post almost the same comment I wrote in Cheese Me.
Why are Miami food trucks so expensive??
When I tried food from Latin burger the first It was good.I really like the fries and the burger was well cook but what it stopping me from eating something from them is the expensive prices! Aren’t food trucks supposed to be cheaper than restaurants? Because is not looking like it. For my food was 11 something.
When my dad ate the first time he bought two burgers,two tacos and fries for him and my sister and it was $30! He said he really like it but not eating anything again from here because is too expensive.
He also said that the burgers should be at least bigger for the price they sell it and that the fries should have more.

In MySQL replication is that of the Binary Log, which has user’s commands logged in it.
Generally replication is used when there are many servers to balance the load and have the same data. In such cases, Usually A single master and multiple Slaves are used.
The Servers B and C are peers to each other.
We’ll set up replication of the database test. When I say database “test”, it means its all tables are replicated as well. I’ll come up to the specific configurations, etc … but later. I assume we are starting with an empty database.

Redefine yourself with 300watches high end luxury watches.
Yelp: Post your yelp testimonial + photo of your watch. Then send us a screen shot of your testimonial, we’ll verify it and then send you a coupon for the $100 credit!
Website: after you fill out the form, we’ll send you an email with the coupon for $100 credit.
1. What made you to choose 300watches? (history, price, quality, selection...anything else)?
3. If you were to recommend us to a colleague, client, friend or business associate, how would you describe us?
I chose 300watches because of the fantastic reputation that they have in internet sales, their prices, selection of watches and unbelievable delivery times, even to the UK.
I have to be honest and say that I cannot fault any aspect of the service provided by 300watches. From my initial contact right through the transaction everything ran faultlessly and the after sales was fantastic. They have kept in contact with me since the purchase making sure that I am happy with the watch and letting me know that they are always there, should I need to discuss anything watch related.
I actually have recommended 300watches to many friends and colleagues already. All I tell them is how my transaction went so faultlessly and that they should without hesitation go there first when looking for a watch.
4. What areas could we improve upon?
Having dealt with many companies on the internet who deal with high end items, I can honestly say that 300watches have very little if nothing that they can improve upon at this point.
5. Do you have any additional comments?
On a final note I would just like to say that I can recommend 300watches whole heartedly, please do not hesitate in dealing with them. I am looking forward to my next purchase after recently buying a beautiful Girard Perregaux Sea Hawk from them.
Great range and the best price I could find for the watch I wanted.
Very fast response time. I'm in a completely different timezone and was amazed how quick the responses came.
Absolute pride and passion for customer service.
Absolute pleasure to deal with you, I have already started referring friends.
After my recent trip to the Girard-Perregaux / Jeanrichard factory in Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, courtesy of Swiss Watch Tours. I returned home to the UK feeling that I must own one of these exquisite time pieces, in particular the Girard-Perregaux Sea Hawk. By far the best price I found on that model was on the 300watches.com, I find that they always seem to have the best prices on the net and one of the best selections of high end watch brands.
So I contacted them and the owner Ilya got straight back to me, after one or two messages back and forth the deal was done. I paid by PayPal and I received the watch within three days, amazing delivery time as we are over 3000 miles apart. The watch arrived by FedEx Tacked so I was able to monitor its progress across the Atlantic. When the parcel landed I paid particular notice to how well the goods had been packaged, which is so important when buying prestige goods.
I have already recommended 300watches.com to friends and associates. When I talk about 300watches.com to them, I simply relay my experience. I tell them about the amazing prices, delivery, choice of brands and the incredibly helpful staff.
I have for many years dealt with internet companies dealing in high end goods, many of them watch companies. I do have to say that 300watches.com offer the perfect service from ordering to delivery and I feel that there is no aspect of that experience that they can improve on.
Since receiving the watch Ilya has been in contact with me to make sure that I am happy with the watch and every aspect of the transaction, which of course I am. I am now looking forward to dealing with 300watches.com again in the very near future and will not hesitate to recommend them to my friends and associates.
Unbeatable Prices, Top Quality; but above all, unparalleled Customer Service!
Illya has always gone above and beyond in exceeding my expectations when it comes to the time pieces I have inquired on...I am already on my second piece with him, and I am very confident that many more will come! I have gotten a Hublot and a Bell&Ross; and I already started saving for my next acquisition, which you already have in your inventory, at an unbeatable price, as always!
Reliable, trustful and honest source for luxury timepieces, supported by an incredible team!
For quite a while I had been looking for a Perrelet Split Second Chronograph watch. The few places that actually had the watch had it priced really high. During a web search, I found 300watches.com, a very well respected eBay seller. They had the watch I wanted, along with a ton of other luxury watch brands.
They had the watch and at an amazing price (almost half of what some other retailers were selling it for). After trading a few emails with Ilya, their general director, I ordered the watch. It was shipped the next day.
Great watch, great price, excellent service. I will definitely do business with 300watches.com again.
Quite recently, I came upon the 300watches.com website while searching for a limited edition Clerc 801 diamond watch. In addition to finding the particular Clerc of interest at an exceptional price, I soon realized that the overall inventory was comprised of high end watches, and some of the best discount watches online.
Prior to ordering I had a number of questions regarding the Clerc's movement and bracelet. Not only were my questions answered specifically and professionally, I personally received a phone call from Ilya Kushnirskiy, the company's General Director, to inquire as to my satisfaction with his organization and the buying experience.
300watches.com is an exceptional organization with the customer experience clearly as the first concern. I am confident that I will purchase many more watches from this company in the coming months and years, and, recommend other collectors reading this to take the time to explore 300watches.com for yourselves, you will be very gratified that you did.

The Graphic Illustration course offers a creative learning process using techniques and drawing tools that consider graphic and illustration as a unique concept, which is essential for realizing images with a strong creative impact.
Graphic and illustration are still two very different fields: graphics are in charge of managing the space whereas illustrators evoke emotions.
But because of timing and costs, in daily work even the graphic finds itself in the position of realizing images, drawings and illustrations. Likewise, the illustrator has to handle complex projects and to use elements of graphic design.
New technologies in computer graphics tend to mix up these two different competences and propose standard and pre-packed creative solutions.
Admission requirements: knowledge of the Macintosh operating system and of, at least, one Adobe’s software.
Language: The lessons are held in Italian language; to attend the course, is required a good knowledge of Italian language reading and oral comprehension.
Graphic Design. Drawing vectors with Adobe Illustrator: tools and working methodology for managing shapes and outlines.
Colour. Creating and applying colours and artistic effects with Adobe Photoshop: tools and colouring techniques.

Superintendent Trani met with board members individually prior to the board meeting. This was mentioned, in the official meeting minutes, by Director Mickalson where he states that he still had questions about his meeting with Mr. Trani the day before on this topic.
This vote was not mentioned at the Q&A held by the Superintendent the same night, held immediately prior to the board meeting. Many people at the Q&A went home. They had no idea our board was voting on anything like this that night.
This vote was directly tied to and meant to mend the $725,000 shortfall that was discovered in the budget soon after Superintendent Trani took over the chair from past Superintenent Bob Dunton. ( This shortfall was the reason for the “emergency meeting” that was called of the school board the previous September 2, 2010. That meeting was held at 4:00 PM, on the last day to file to place a levy on the ballot, and the paperwork was filed with the County at 4:35 PM. See the official documentation and more info here.
The Corbett Charter School Association was granted an expansion of seats ( allowing up to 510 out of district students ) and an extension of their original contract from 2012 to 2014 without review or public input.
We lost our grade school library and exceeded our legal occupancy of the grade school building by adding classrooms.
While this agreement was supposed to include for allowing funds to return to our district from the Charter funding ( as we allow for a 100% “pass through” of ADMw dollars to the Charter ) – we will likely not see much of this money. ( Why not? Because the Charter school has chosen, instead, to spend it. ) Examples: Offering iPad incentive programs to their freshman ( there goes about $20,000 this year not coming back… ), four recent $5,000 scholarships to their seniors ( another $20,000 not coming back …) they are allowing for potentially an additional 10 extra days of curriculum development for the Charter teachers in this upcoming year’s budget ( there goes a lot more $$$ not coming back…. ) … AND don’t forget that Bob Dunton and Sheri Dunton ( Both listed as the highest compensated employees on the CCSA’s 990’s ) earned a combined income for 2010 of over $326,000 plus.
Randy Trani’s book, “Falacies in Education” does not specifically promote leaving instruction out of schools for writing and math.
The book does, however, focus on the changes made to Corbett School District by Bob Dunton and Randy Trani, as stated in the original PDF. These changes, to be fair, have included leaving out instruction in areas traditionally taught to children in most other public schools. To find out more about Randy Trani’s book you can read a community member’s book review of it here.
On the topic of ….
Bob and the Cascade Locks Charter School Association – All true.
Bob Dunton was a consultant for the Cascade Locks Charter School.
This was the same application denied twice by the HRSD.
This was the same application the State of Oregon denied sponsoring.
The State of Oregon agreed with HRSD that the curriculum did not meet core standards of instruction for all students.
Connie Kennedy Buttaccio referenced Bob, as her consultant with the Cascade Locks proposal and mentioned him as the best in the state. Connie also referenced Bob as her friend in board meeting minutes.
In fact, parents in Cascade Locks NOT supportive of this Charter School called the attempt to open the Charter there the “BOB AND CONNIE SHOW” which would seem to support the idea that Bob Dunton was more closely involved in this push to open the Charter School in Cascade Locks ( and/or merge CSD with CL ) than he might be happy to admit.

Looking every bit svelte, the Ford Mustang comes to market in 2019 with minor changes following its major refresh for the 2018 model year. That update brought new front and rear styling, revised suspension calibration and more power from both engine offerings.
For 2019, a 480-horsepower version of the venerable pony car’s 5.0-liter V8 powers the latest Bullitt edition of the coupe. A new iteration of the California Special debuts, rev matching is fitted to manual transmission variants and the turbocharged four-cylinder engine gets an optional quad tipped exhaust system.
On the electronics front, the new optional Bang & Olufsen audio system boasts 1,000 watts. Apple CarPlay compatibility for Ford+Alexa and Waze via SYNC 3 is being offered as well. Rounding out the tech updates, FordPass Connect WiFi replaces SYNC Connect.
Dwelling on those latter features for a moment points out how the sleek muscle car has matured over the years. When attributes like those are combined with upmarket versions of the Ford’s leather upholstery and generous array of comfort and convenience features, the Mustang provides an aura of quality its chief competitors lack.
Said succinctly, the Mustang feels better sorted than both the recently updated Camaro and Challenger. More comfortable, more luxurious, better handling and unquestionably more handsome, the choice between the three is obvious for me.
Power comes from a choice of two sources. The aforementioned 5.0-L V8 makes 460 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque. As impressive as those numbers are on the screen, you really have to sit behind this engine to fully appreciate what it’s all about. With its stratospheric 7,400 rpm redline you can wind the 5.0-L Mustang to your heart’s content. Even better, the more tightly you do so, the more melodious its aural signature becomes. Few V-8 engines give you a rev range this broad and you won’t find it anywhere else in the Mustang’s price range.
Meanwhile, the 2.3-L turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder, which replaced the V6 in the Mustang’s engine bay, also delivers a wholly satisfying driving experience. While it lacks the thunderous resonance of the 5.0-L V8, it pulls strongly everywhere from anywhere on the tachometer, delivering a total of 310 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque.
When you consider this powerplant is tasked with motivating a mass of 3,556 pounds, it becomes obvious you can expect (and get) a fulfilling driving experience. In fact, the EcoBoost version of the Mustang also delivers quicker turn-in and a more agile feel overall because it has less weight in its nose. You can get a six-speed manual transmission with either engine, or a 10-speed automatic.
Of course, cars in this category must also excite visually and the Mustang’s long, low and lean profile accomplishes this with room to spare. The way the styling team has captured the traditional Mustang cues in a gorgeous new form is more than commendable. This is a car you’ll enjoy looking at just as much as you’ll enjoy driving it.
What’s more, overall comfort is outstanding for both the driver and the front passenger. As is typical of cars in this category, if you’re 5 feet tall or more the rear seat is hardly the place you’ll want to be. With that caveat, the rest of the car delivers outstanding comfort.
Visibility is relatively unrestricted all around-despite the low roofline and steeply slanted rear window. Ingress and egress for the front seats are welcoming as well.
While the driving experience is markedly different depending upon your engine choice, satisfying performance is a consequence regardless of your powertrain decision. Grip and braking encourage canyon strafing activities, introducing yet another personality facet to this sterling example of the contemporary pony car.
With that said, do know it’s very possible to push the price of the sleek Ford well into the $50,000 range with the V8 engine. While this is a reasonable sum for a GT car with this much panache, that number does give us pause when the window sticker also says “Mustang”. Though, yes, you do get a whole lot of goodness at that price point.
Fortunately though, you’ll still come away with a nicely equipped, highly attractive and very capable performance car even if you’re conservative with the options list. Pricing for the 2019 Ford Mustang starts at $26,120.

Reserve Bank of India, RBI India’s central bank which controls the monetary policy in its recent bi-monthly monetary policy review meeting kept its policy rates unchanged at 7.25% and announced that it may eventually come down after September. The cash reserve ratio (CRR) which refers to the proportion of deposits that the commercial banks have to hold as cash with RBI remains as 4% and the statutory liquidity ratio (SLR), the proportion of deposits that the commercial banks have to hold in liquid instruments (gold, cash, government bonds) is 21.5%.
At the start of this year RBI reduced its rates by 75 basis points where one basis point is equal to one-hundredth of a percentage point. Arundhati Bhattacharya, Chairperson of State Bank of India said that future rate cuts will depend on the economic and credit growth of the country and the bank’s ability to make profits from treasury operations and its desire to pass a rate that benefits its customers.
RBI governor Raghuram Rajan in the monetary policy review meeting acknowledged that transmission to a different monetary policy will take time. The monetary policies cannot be changed suddenly at a point of time. For that a clear forecast on what is going to happen in the economy for three-four quarters down the line should be done. When there is a change in the rate its action gives a signal that signal then gets turned into efficient plan which then down the line turns into an activity that may affect the economy.
RBI noted that the demand for products is increasing particularly in the urban areas. To have a gear on this better credit availability to customers is necessary. If the monsoon will be normal there will be prospects of a good harvest which strengthen the weak rural demand and provide a boost to economic activity.
Professional forecasters of RBI expect an economic growth of 7.6% in 2015-16 and 8.2% in 2016-17. Mr.Rajan also added that it is wise to keep the policy rate unchanged as the inflation projections are higher than expected rates and steps must be taken to bring inflation down so as there will be a mild cost to outputs which will be extremely good for the economy. Soon after the RBI announcement that there will be no change in its rates the yield on the 10 year benchmark bond rose to 7.797% from 7.788% before the policy. The value of rupee closed at 63.75 a dollar which was 63.99 before the policy announcement.

"This speaks to the service excellence that Deb consistently provides to our guests and fellow colleagues every day she comes to work and we are thrilled that she has been recognized as the best in Canada," said Michael Pye, general manager of Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.

Some wise words in this article in The Guardian from Aditya Chakrabortty. Perhaps it’s my age, but I’m increasingly aware of the power that we have, collectively, around where and how we spend and save our money.
In big French companies, pension savers are offered the chance to invest 10% of their money in a fond solidaire, or solidarity fund, which supports unlisted social enterprises. In Britain, your average pension member doesn’t even get consulted on what values they’d like their money to support – whether fighting climate change or building social housing. Yet, rather than tackle those issues, the Labour party seeks to build a parallel finance system, in the form of a National Investment Bank, while other left economists talk about building a sovereign wealth fund, just as Norway has done with the proceeds of North Sea oil.
But we have a sovereign wealth fund already. It’s worth over £2tn and it’s called our pension funds. The big battle is to give us agency over our own savings, rather than leaving it all to some pinstriped manager on a fat commission.

In less than 3 weeks, the yearly anticipated NHL 13 will be out. If you’re the kind of person that doesn’t feel like buying the new edition because you think it’s just the previous version with updated rosters, than this is the article for you. EA Sports’ NHL team has made many changes from NHL 12. The demo is now available to download. Topics of improvement/change include: True Performance Skating, EA Sports Hockey I.Q., GM Connected, NHL Moments Live, and Refined on-ice presentation. So before the September 11th release date, here is a preview of NHL 13.
Let’s start with true performance skating. This years’ edition brings the most authentic skating experience yet. Players now vividly crossover while skating backwards, and player speed is more realistic. Stopping fast now results in a spray of snow, which if aimed at the goalie will stick to his pads. EA has added over 1,000 new gameplay animations to their skating engine.
EA Sports Hockey I.Q. is a new A.I. system which allows players to have full awareness of all players on the ice, allowing for better decisions to be made.
GM Connected is a new mode of gameplay that allows people to manage a team full of human players. In a league, there can be up to 30 teams, and each person will either play a position or coach their team from behind the bench. 750 players can play in a league. According to IGN.com, there are five ways to play GM Connected: “playing against a human opponent, taking on the A.I., teaming up with others in a cooperative game, or building your A.I. (including changing variables and biases). In this way, NHL 13 will connect hockey gamers like never before.
NHL Moments Live is a cool new mode. It starts out by showing a clip from an NHL game, for example, the moment when the Los Angeles Kings scored the series-clinching goal to send them into the Stanley Cup Finals. It then asks the question “Can you recreate history?” After selecting the preferred difficulty level, the game puts you right in the action and your goal is to, in this case, score that one goal in overtime. What’s even cooler about this is that during the upcoming NHL season, new moments from this year will be added, so it helps to keep you connected to the real-life games.
The on-ice presentation is almost perfect, or as some may say, too perfect. Details such as adding shadows on the ice from the skaters and overhead lighting, power rings in the arenas, and much better replay and analysis really bring the game to life in your living room. The attention to detail is always important to the EA developers, and this game is no exception.
That’s a pretty solid soundtrack.
The demo includes the in-game manual with all the controls, including coaching and changes to other controls. The ability to coach a team really caught my attention. You will be able to change lines and strategies from behind the bench. You will also be able to change faceoff strategies and call for a shot. This adds a whole new way to play the game.
After playing the demo, I can’t really find any flaws. The hitting felt a little awkward, but it also felt awkward in the NHL 12 demo last August. By the release date, they had improved it. The skating is much better now. Goalies are a lot more animated, and are no longer cardboard cutouts. The improved replay system makes each game now look like a televised broadcast. One thing that seemed to be different was the immediate transition after the goalie freezes the puck. You’d be lying to yourself if you said you didn’t use that 10 seconds to steamroll the goalie and run into all the opposing players nearby. Sadly, now it just cuts into the next scene (replay, highlight etc). Hockey Ultimate Team seems to be even better now and there is now an option to select “Free Skate” from the main menu, which allows you to jump right into practice mode.
The Winter Classic is back, and you can now play in the 2011 Heinz Field game and the 2012 Citizens Bank Park game. And the graphics and scenery are even better this time around!
The player rating system is also brand new for this year. A player’s “overall” now means overall ability to play that particular position, and it includes offense and defense. The difference between superstars and stars is more distinct. According to easports.com, “Each position has its own weighted formula that provides an overall.” EA has scouts in Scandinavia, Switzerland, Germany, and the Czech Republic, and the ratings are based on their observations and the stats that the players accumulate.
This year there is a Stanley Cup edition of NHL 13. For $20 more, you get Stanley Cup Hockey Ultimate Team packs with five player items from the Los Angeles Kings and New Jersey Devils, a Gold Jumbo Hockey Ultimate Team pack with a Wayne Gretzky legend item, a CCM Boost Pack with the new CCM RBZ hockey stick, and a 10% discount on an NHL.com shop purchase.
Are you ready yet? I know I am.
NHL 13 comes out on September 11th, but make sure to pre-order it and get 16 free Gold Hockey Ultimate Team packs (1 each week for 16 weeks)!

Angels third baseman David Freesevisits his parents, Guy and Lynn, and his sister, Pam, during the 2011 World Series when he led the St. Louis Cardinals to the title.
David Freese is a World Series away from filing his paperwork and becoming the best available third baseman on the free-agent market.
The Angels shouldn’t let him slip away.
They win with him, going 70-48 when he starts (15-29 when he doesn’t), including 20-11 in the final stretch when he returned Sept. 1 from 36 games missed with a fractured right index finger.
They’ve had two seasons to know his work. He’s solid at third base, ably manning the corner that has given the Angels fits since the days of Troy Glaus. He doesn’t have spectacular range but is reliable on the routine plays, with a .967 fielding percentage and eight errors last season.
His slashline as an Angel was .258/.322/.401, well below the .293/.372/.467 he had as a 2012 All-Star. He hit a career-low .257 in 2015 but has pop in his bat (14 home runs, 27 doubles) and became clutch, batting .308 with three homers and 13 RBI after his return from injury.
They already know his character. He’s a good fit in the clubhouse, bonding with the Angels who’ve become “like family.” He’s 32 and a seven-year veteran who reached two World Series with the St. Louis, leading the way for the Cardinals in 2011 as their NLCS and World Series Most Valuable Player.
They don’t have feasible a replacement for him. While he was on the disabled list, they tried out veteran pickup Conor Gillaspie and rookie Kaleb Cowart and lost 19 games in August alone. Their only internal fallbacks remain Cowart, 23, who hit .174, and Kyle Kubitza, 25, who batted .194.
Going into the winter, Freese headlines a weak free-agent market for established third basemen that includes Juan Uribe, Casey McGehee, Aramis Ramirez, and former Angels Gordon Beckham and Alberto Callaspo.
This is good for Freese but bad for the Angels, who will have to spend substantially more on him than the $6.425 million he pocketed in 2015. A qualifying offer would be in the $15.8million range, perhaps too pricey for newly installed Angels GM Billy Eppler, who has other gaping holes to fill with a left fielder, left-handed bat and starting pitching.
But Eppler, in his Oct. 5 introduction speech, said he’s “committed to championship standards,” and Freese is a proven championship player, sore that he’s not playing for one today.
For the first time since 2010, Freese is idle in the postseason. He believed the Angels were “close to doing something really special” this season, which ended with a heartbreaking elimination in the Oct. 4 season-finale defeat at Texas.
Back at his condo in the downtown of the baseball-crazed St. Louis that will forever celebrate him as the homegrown World Series hero, he’s a free-agent-to-be feeling the tug of the past glory while waiting for his future to unfold.
He doesn’t have a team, but he has a home and family nearby, his parents still living in the house where he grew up, 25 miles west of downtown in Wildwood, Mo.
“We’ll enjoy having Dave back in St. Louis for a while,” said Freese’s mother, Lynn.
His bedroom walls used to be decorated with posters of Cardinals Hall of Fame shortstop Ozzie Smith and Chicago Bulls Hall of Famer Michael Jordan. Their tiny backyard is where Freese and his father, Guy, a civil engineer, once built a makeshift diamond, played catch and had batting practice until young Freese hit the ball into the woods or bounced it off a neighbor’s house.
His father coached him through Little League and travel ball before becoming a fan only while Freese set Lafayette High batting records and became the best shortstop in the state.
When Freese won the World Series, he gave his father a World Series ring and the Corvette he won as the MVP.
Freese used to shoot baskets outside the home after school while Lynn, a middle school teacher, prepared dinner or tidied up the place with the windows open and music blaring. The mother and son always had a soundtrack.
When Freese became a World Series hero, he shared his fame with his mother, taking her backstage to classic rock concerts. Whenever he traveled, he browsed music stores, hunting for rare albums she’d frame and hang on her home office walls.
“Look what I found,” Freese texted Lynn last season, with a picture of a 1979 John Cougar vinyl.
His parents backed him when he decided to quit baseball after high school and go to University of Missouri as a regular student. His mother was the first to learn Freese wanted to make a comeback a year later to play at St. Louis Community College-Meramec.
He finished his college career at the University of South Alabama, becoming the 2006 Sun Belt Conference player of the year and a ninth-round draft selection by San Diego. A 2008 trade for Jim Edmonds led Freese to the Cardinals and back home.
The 2011 postseason changed their lives, and “we weren’t ready for the fame,” Lynn said.
In the 2011 NLCS against Milwaukee, Freese led the wildcard Cardinals with a .545 batting average (12 for 22), three doubles, nine RBI, seven runs and three home runs, including a three-run blast in Game 6, which advanced the Cardinals to the World Series.
In the 2011 World Series Game 6 against the Texas Rangers, with the Cardinals a strike away from losing, Freese laced a two-run triple to force extra innings. Freese won the game in the 11th with leadoff home run, and the Cardinals took Game 7 for the crown, making Freese the hometown prince.
Freese and the Cardinals lost in the 2012 NLCS in seven games to San Francisco and were defeated in the 2013 World Series in six games to Boston.
A Nov. 2013 trade brought Freese along with reliever Fernando Salas to the Angels in exchange for centerfielder Peter Bourjos and outfielder prospect Randal Grichuk.
The day the deal went down, Freese received a text from Angels slugger Albert Pujols, who had won two World Series titles and three NL MVP awards in 11 seasons with the Cardinals before joining Angels.
“Remember what we did last time we played together? Let’s go try to do that again,” Pujols wrote.
The closest they’ve come was the 2014 ALDS, in which the Angels were swept by the Kansas City Royals.
“My time with the Angels has been awesome,” said Freese, who had the clubhouse locker two stalls down from Pujols.
While with the Cardinals, he was closest to veteran Matt Holliday, who mentored him and helped him recover after his third alcohol-related arrest. With the Angels, Freese found a similar brotherhood and support in the clubhouse and has kept his sobriety.
Freese had a “tiny place” in Laguna, where he lived for the past year, enjoying the ocean, the sunshine, the relative anonymity and the hours browsing a nearby used record store for vinyls to add to his and his mother’s collection.
Freese wants to be an Angel again. The Angels should want him back.

On June 19th, 1999, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) in recognition of the unique character and breadth of the collection designated the Kinne Water Turbine Collection as a Mechanical Engineering Heritage Collection.
This Water Turbine Collection, assembled by engineer Clarence E. Kinne between 1907 and 1937, is believed to be the largest in the world. Most of the turbines powered machine works, factories, and saw, grist, and paper mills in the northern counties of New York. Examples range from crude, one-of-a-kind wheels designed and built by their users based largely on instinct and observation and incorporating parts of wood, to sophisticated, high-efficiency, all-metal machines by large builders dedicated solely to turbine work. The collection represents American development from a time well before the invention of the “true” turbine to the evolution of the inward-flow reaction turbine used in today’s largest hydroelectric plants.
The collection, which contains 38 water turbines and waterwheels, illustrates the wide variety of water turbines produced in nineteenth-century America. It includes center discharge wheels, jonval axial-flow turbines, radial inward and mixed-flow turbines, register-gate and wicket-gate turbines, centrifugal wheels, and many combinations. The collection even includes a “Scotch turbine” descendent of “Barker’s wheel”, which works like a spinning lawn sprinkler. The evolution of designs exhibited in the collection provides an object lesson in the methods of engineering development, which apply as much today as they did in the era in which turbines in the collection were developed. With exception of an iron reaction waterwheel cast under Kinne’s supervision at the Bagley & Sewall Company, Watertown, New York in 1928, the water turbines were produced between 1810 and 1916. The diversity of wheels is significant to anyone interested in the study of hydraulics.
Clarence E. Kinne observed the decline in dependence on water power as a direct source of mechanical power during his lifetime. He recognized the historical and technical significance of old water turbines as they were being cast aside by others and resolved to preserve representative samples of the old machines for his own enjoyment as well as for the benefit of future generations. He journeyed throughout northern New York to visit old water‑ powered mills and corresponded with almost anyone who might help him in his search for water turbine information and artifacts. He purchased a variety of old turbines with his own funds and was given others. He gathered an extensive collection of trade catalogs that described many of the water turbines in his collection. In 1928 he loaned his collection to the Jefferson County Historical Society for display in their museum's newly renovated basement. Mrs. Stuart E. Lansing, the widow of Kinne's former employer, funded the basement remodeling in honor of her late husband who had been president of the historical society as well as president of Bagley & Sewall (now GL&V/Black Clawson-Kennedy, Inc.) where Kinne spent most of his career.
Kinne's appreciation of waterwheels and turbines started early, probably at age 16 when he apprenticed at a machine shop in Camden, New York, that later became the Camden Waterwheel Works. At the age of 24 he began work as a draftsman at Bagley & Sewall, manufacturers of paper-making machinery in Watertown, New York. He spent the remainder of his career there, becoming in succession: Chief Draftsman, Mechanical Engineer; Superintendent, Secretary, Vice-President, and President of the company. He was a Life Member of ASME and served as President of the Jefferson County Historical Society from 1935 to 1947.
The Kinne Turbine Collection is on permanent display and can be viewed during normal museum hours. To obtain a complete catalog of the Kinne Turbine Collection contact the JCHS Curator at (315) 782-3491 or email: curator@jeffersoncountyhistory.org.

Avant-garde, means the vanguard or advanced guard. It generally refers to people who ‘go first’ and lead the way in art and culture. The term has been applied to art and artists such as the impressionists. It has been mostly applied to art and artists of the Victorian era, but the expression is still used today.
Avant-garde can also be applied to films, music, writing and even 21st century digital art. It applies in particular to dress. I see young people who dress differently, they experiment with style and use colours and accessories in a way that makes them look stylish, but different. That is the key to looking avant-garde, to be different, to stand out from the crowd, but still be stylish. You will stand out from the crowd if you wear garish colours, but that isn’t stylish; it isn’t avant-garde. Some people lead fashion, other people follow like sheep. If you lead fashion by experimenting with style and other people follow, that is avant- garde. People won’t follow you if you wear shocking pink inappropriately, but even shocking pink can be avant-garde, if it’s not too overdone.
Style means different things to different people, but it’s interesting to look at what people think avant-garde is on Pinterest. Most people seem to regard it as something new, but within certain rules, not too unconventional.
If you’re trying to re-invent yourself and need a new look, try looking at avant-garde images, most of them seem to take their inspiration from Parisian style or French style. You have to be quite brave to wear something different, do something different and attempt to lead the way where others fear to tread. You don’t have to spend a fortune in order to wear something cool and trendy. A lot depends upon matching colours and accessories. The designer labels don’t really matter to fashion leaders and trend setters.
You have to be prepared for criticism. I once wore a silver jacket with an orange lining. The men made fun of me, the women wanted to try it on! Try to push the boundaries of fashion, don’t blast them out of the way all together. If it’s cold and you want a scarf that looks different as an accessory to your clothes. You might have to knit it yourself or have it knitted. The best designer clothes are the ones made for you, not the ones with the well known label. Hand crafted knitwear is really trendy and the design can be yours, that is much more avant-garde than a designer name.
I hope today’s relatively short psychology post has made you think a little. Can you lead the way in art, design or fashion and inspire your friends to follow? Please comment and share your thoughts with the world.

I have always been obsessed by good fragrance. As a kid, I had a fond memory of my dad coming from office, taking me on his lap and smelling incredibly good. I guess I got my fragrance love from him and as every dad's little girl would want, I also wanted the man of my life to smell good all the time. Unfortunately my husband does not share the same passion for fragrance and would often go without any. But how can I leave him just like that! I have decided to gift him the best possible fragrances for his special occasions. And my recent gift to him is the Oriflame Incognito for Him Eau De Toilette .
This is a sensuous fragrance. When the time is right, lead her astray on a sensual trail of patchouli and cedar leaves. Winner takes all.
My experience: The packaging of the Oriflame Incognito for Him Eau De Toilette is quite luxurious. It is an aromatic extravaganza with top notes of ground cherry, a heart of cedar and a patchouli invigorated base. It has a wonderful sophisticated note that travels an interesting journey of fruity to woody and a bit musky elements. It has the correct proportion of softness with masculinity and gives an aura of warmth.
Oriflame Incognito for Him Eau De Toilette is an ideal romantic gift for your man. The stay of the fragrance is a little shallow and it tends to fade away within 5 hours. But the smell when around is quite attractive to the olfactory senses. I would pick it as one of the best gift ideas for men for this year.
Oriflame Incognito for Him Eau De Toilette is a luxurious blend of sophistication and power and I repeat again, would be an ideal gift for your man.

VidAngel says it isn't backing down from its legal battle against Disney and other leading Hollywood studios any time soon.
The company, which allows users to filter explicit content from movies, lost a key legal battle this week when a California federal judge dismissed VidAngel's counterclaim of antitrust violations against the studios, which are suing to shut down the company.
The studios suing VidAngel are Disney, Lucasfilm, Twentieth Century Fox Film, and Warner Bros.
This most recent decision is just the latest in a year-long legal battle between VidAngel and the Hollywood heavyweights.
While VidAngel CEO Neal Harmon says he is disappointed by the court's decision, he is far from giving up.
"We are once again disappointed by another decision by Judge Birotte that badly misconstrued VidAngel's allegations," Harmon says.
"During the more than seven months it took the Court to rule, there were a number of highly-publicized events showing that VidAngel's antitrust allegations are correct," Harmon says. "We are conferring with our attorneys and will announce VidAngel's legal response to the Court's ruling as soon as possible."

When you enter a university, a new chapter of your life opens: student journey. Van Lang University held the Opening Ceremony for freshman only every September as a special opportunity to share and companion with students to overcome the difficulties when taking the very first step on that journey.
Opening Ceremony is not just a signal for a new school year. Opening ceremony is also a happy day to give and receive, get closer and understand each other, when the hand of the formers take the hand of the new generation to go into the university. This day represents the wish that all of the students will experience the most beautiful and exciting period at Van Lang.
Every Opening Ceremony is really special because it is an indispensable milestone marking each step of the school's development through beautiful images and the vitality of Van Lang: students. Over the years, Van Lang has gradually improved in the way of organizing the opening ceremony, established standard procedures for this important event.
1st Opening Ceremony, Sep 17, 1995, was held at the National Academy of Public Administration, Ho Chi Minh. 4,569 first students officially became the center of the University.
5th Opening Ceremony, Sep 1999, was held at Hoa Binh Theater, Ho Chi Minh together with the graduation of 2,103 bachelors, engineers of the 1st course.
6th Opening Ceremony, 2000, was held with the inauguration ceremony of new campus: 233A Phan Van Tri, Ward 11, Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh city.
9th Opening Ceremony, Oct 11, 2003, was solemnly held at Hall C001, Campus 2 - 233A Phan Van Tri, Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh city; in the pride of the facilities and maturity of Van Lang.
11th Opening Ceremony, 2005, was organized in two parts for the 1st time on campus 2: ceremony and festival. The ceremony was held formally. The festival includes entertainment program, culinary program and folk game prepared by former students.
21st Opening Ceremony, Sep 21, 1995, was first held on the land of nearly 6 hectares, the new campus in Ward 5, Go Vap District, Ho Chi Minh City.
22nd Opening Ceremony, Oct 2, 2016, the first opening ceremony after having changed into private at campus 2.
24th Opening Ceremony, Oct 10, 2018, the Opening ceremony for students generation who were born in 2000 - the beginning of a new generation of young students at Van Lang.

Let’s get a little deeper into the Myo armband. Myo read electrical signs from your arm and it can detect up to 5 distinct poses: wave left, wave right, spread fingers, fist, and pinch. It also has a couple of motion sensors, so with all this information you can start to think into possibilities.
The armband collect and share all this information via Bluetooth, so nowadays we can use the Myo armband connected to almost, any device. Out of the box there are samples to control VLC, Spotify, or even drones or the Sphero toys. And, of course, because this is gesture based, you have a PowerPoint controller !
In order to start to use all these features as a Developer, we need to enable the Developer Mode. In the Myo preferences app, go to the General section and we need to enable the 5th option.
Now we can access the debug console which is something we can use later in our development process.
The core of the SDK is a library: libmyo. This library allows applications to interact with the Myo armband. All functionality in libmyo is exposed through a plain C API.
The SDK provides data to the application in the form of events. There are three categories of events: spatial events(corresponding to spatial data from a Myo armband), gestural events (corresponding to gestural data a Myo armband) and auxiliary events.
There is plenty of information about the internals of the SDK, but let’s go to see some code. In the SDK folder we can find the C++ header and hpp files to be used in a sample C++ app. So let’s go for this.
In a console app, we need to inherit from DeviceListener to have access to the Myo armband features.
Using the Myo hub, we can access to the EMG information, the orientation / position information and also the poses information. In example, once a pose is detected we can notify the user about this pose or take additional actions.
A nice starting point are the 3 C++ sample projects included in the SDK. However I know that not so many people are used to C++ so in my next post I’ll switch to C# thanks to one of the many Myo.Net implementations available.

This was sent to us by community member Phillip Nichols.
It’s a simple hack to get Pro Tools to create track presets. Simple and genius.
If this doesn’t make it into Pro Tools 11, then Avid need shooting!
1) Go to Applications > Avid > Pro Tools (or Digidesign > Pro Tools for v8 or 9). Here, create a folder titled “Track Presets”. I also recommend creating folders within “Track Presets” for different categories (ex: Submix Masters, Reverbs, etc) although you can do that later on.
2) Create and configure tracks (including inputs, outputs, names, sends, volume, pan, plug-ins, etc) as desired.
3) From the File menu, choose Save As Template.
5) Navigate to a folder within the Track Presets folder (or create a new folder in Track Presets) or just save anywhere then move the template(s) to these folders later.
Once your templates are saved to folders within the “Track Presets” folder, they will appear as options in the New Track dialog below the normal track types (audio track, aux input track, etc). You can still use Command + Down/Up to switch through these and Option Command Down/Up will switch between multiples in your sub-folders.

I love the way you've explained some of your theory - very clear and concise. Working my way through your material.
Thanks for taking the time - it's an amazing resource. I'm using the course with Year 10 students. It works well from a personal learning point of view and is a great reference for them. It's like having several teachers in the room at the same time - which is a good thing.
I use a lot of technology with them (Sibelius, Pro Tools, Reason etc) so your approach being it bite-sized chunks allows them to experiment with putting the theory into practice using technology. Their knowledge and skills vary greatly so having you there has been great as I can use your material as extension activities whenever necessary.
