A long and tedious debate surrounding the Hungarian minimum wage has finally come to an end. According to data from the Finance Ministry published by Portfolio.hu, 42 percent of Hungarian workers in the corporate sector earn minimum wage or guaranteed minimum wage (the minimum wage for employees with certain qualifications).
The Ministry report reveals that agriculture, construction, tourism, social care and the administrative sector hire most of their workers on minimum wage.
The study is based on data gathered by KSH, the Statistical Bureau of Hungary. According to estimates, this year's eight percent minimum wage increase will affect 42 percent of corporate employees. It will be distributed equally among minimum wage recipients and those who are entitled to guaranteed minimum wage. Officially, 443 thousand people earn minimum wage and 436 thousand receive guaranteed minimum wage.
In Hungary, two types of minimum wages exist. The guaranteed minimum wage provides a higher income but imposes additional requirements: the employee must be in possession of a high school degree and professional qualifications.
On January 1, 2019, the increase will bring the gross minimum wage up to 149,000 forints (EUR 461) and the guaranteed gross minimum wage up to 195,000 forints (EUR 604) per month.
The Saturday issue of government-friendly Magyar Idők included an interview with Imre Palkovics, the President of the National Federation of Workers' Council. Palkovics stated that the trade unions wanted a 13-15 percent increase for 2019, and for the period until 2020, an overall 38 percent increase. The initial offer was for 5 percent in 2019 and an additional five in 2020, but the unions swiftly rejected it.
According to the interview, the unions' situation was further complicated by the fact that the government did not communicate its position during the negotiations. However, in the end, it turned out that accepting the 8+8 percent increase was the right decision. After all, had the negotiations ended without a compromise, the government was considering keeping minimum wage at the 2018 level.
There were other issues with the idea of a double-digit increase. The unions also highlighted that such a steep increase could potentially eat up the amount meant to cover overall wage-related costs. According to this argument, an elevated minimum wage would have endangered the salaries of higher qualified and more experienced workers.
Hungarian employment data can be misleading because companies often register their employees at minimum wage in an effort to avoid traditionally high taxes and employee benefits. As a result, additional money often goes directly into workers' pockets.
Workers earning minimum wage experienced higher raises over the last eight years than in the previous Socialist period. Between 2002-2010, the gross minimum salary rose by 47 percent (23 500 HUF). Meanwhile, it has increased by 103 percent (75 500 HUF) over the last nine years. On the other hand, the tax on minimum wage was lower during the Socialist period, whereas it is currently the second highest rate in Europe under Fidesz. Taking low inflation into account, this is a significant improvement in the quality of life for low earners nevertheless. However, a sizable gap between these numbers and those of Western Europe still remains.

Math is for Girls
July 25, 2008 by terrance
We needed a study to tell us this?
In the largest study of its kind, girls measured up to boys in math in every grade, from second through 11th. The research was released Thursday in the journal Science.
Parents and teachers persist in thinking boys are simply better at math, said Janet Hyde, the University of Wisconsin-Madison researcher who led the study. And girls, who grew up believing it, wound up avoiding harder math classes.
"It keeps girls and women out of a lot of careers, particularly high-prestige, lucrative careers in science and technology," Hyde said.
That's changing, albeit slowly. Women are now earning 48 percent of undergraduate college degrees in math; they still lag far behind in physics and engineering.
But in primary and secondary school, girls have caught up, with researchers attributing that advance to increasing numbers of girls taking advanced math classes such as calculus.
I've known this all my life. Like I've said before, I suck at math. I did well enough to graduate from college.
Then there was college. At my university, the math department had a reputation when it came to algebra. People failed all the time. I did. Actually, I dropped before I failed. People transferred to other universities for a semester in order to take and pass algebra elsewhere, and then returned. I did. I went back to the local college in my hometown, where I took and failed algebra. I went back to my university and worked around it, taking and passing statistics and logic (also known as "math for poets" at my university). All the while, I was struggling with undiagnosed, untreated ADD, and as a result could only handle a partial class load after I hit the wall during my sophomore year.
At the time, there was a loophole when it came to statistics. If I took it and passed it, I would be exempt from taking algebra even though it was a prerequisite for statistics. So, I did. It wasn't until a semester before I was scheduled to graduate (after taking six years to finish, by going part-time) that I found out different. My graduation advisor made a funny face when she looked over my records, and then informed that the loophole had closed, just before I took statistics. So, I wasn't exempt. I would have to take algebra and pass it if I wanted to graduate.
I suppose I could have dropped off my books and walked awa. But then, she made another face. There was another loophole. The semester after I was scheduled to graduate, the algebra requirement was going to be dropped from my degree. I thought moment, and told her to move my graduation deadline back a semester. I would take one more elective and wait for the algebra requirement to be dropped. That's what I did, and I graduated from college withouthaving to take algebra.
And I've always, always known girls who could run rings around me in math. (No major feat. By the time he gets to middle school, I've no doubt Parker will run rings around me in math. He's a bright kid.) In fact, the people I knew in school who did best in math were mostly girls.
It's not a matter of boys being better at math than girls, or vice versa. It's a matter of some people being better at or more talented or gifted at math than other people. It doesn't mean the rest of us can't learn math. I can learn to paint, but no teacher can turn me into a Picasso or a Van Gough. Y'know?

…that God's kingdom has come in the ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, that it continues to come in the ministry of the Spirit through the Church, and that it will be consummated in the glorious, visible and triumphant appearing of Christ - His return to the earth as King. After Christ returns to reign, He will bring about the final defeat of Satan and all of his minions and works, the resurrection of the dead, the final judgment and the eternal blessing of the righteous and eternal punishment of the wicked. Finally, God will be all in all; His kingdom, His rule and reign, will be fulfilled in the new heavens and the new earth, recreated by His mighty power, in which righteousness dwells and in which He will forever be worshipped.


The crisp song structure in the first 30 seconds of "Over This" might trick the listener into believing the track is anything but the torrential algebraic downpour that Nervous Passenger keeps getting better at.
One of a deluge of math rock bands currently active in Chicago, the three piece group is affiliated with the city's own Swerp Records, which, along with supporting similar acts, once hosted a number of well-attended shows in the form of "Swerp Mansion," a raw DIY space and well-kept secret. Though having since been forced to close its doors over the summer, the venue's energy lives on elsewhere within city limits.
"Over This" appears on a split 7″ record with the Island of Misfit Toys, also from Chicago, from whom the entire four-song collection is now available as a free download.

What is NIU Pana N105 phone unlocking ?
The majority of service providers lock their phones to their network, preventing you from using your phone on any other carriers. Essentially , they want to retain your business as the phone will only work only on their Network. Phone unlocking is the way of taking out the Network lock from the phone. NIU Pana N105 Unlocking can be achieved by either purchasing an unlock code which is calculated from your NIU Pana N105 unique IMEI number or perhaps by downloading unlocking computer software to unlock your phone directly. Notice: An network unlocked 2G phone will never accept a 3G simcard. Nonetheless an network unlocked 3G handset will accept and work with a 2G phone. 3G handsets have backward compatibility which makes it possible for those to recognize and operate with a 2G simcard On the other hand, an un-locked 2G handset cannot recognise the newer 3G/4G sim card technology.
Is NIU Pana N105 unlocking illegal?
How can I find out if my NIU Pana N105 phone is locked ?
If you do not have access to a SIM card from another service provider then there exists a less scientific technique you may use to verify if your NIU Pana N105 handset is locked. Simply look to see whether your carrier has placed their logo on your NIU Pana N105 phone any where. For example in england orange usually lock their phones additionally they usually "badge" their NIU Pana N105 phones with their Orange logo possibly on the front or even the back of the NIU Pana N105 handset.
PUK is short for Personalized unblocking Code. You should enter it if you have inserted your personal pin code incorrect. This acts like a security feature on your NIU Pana N105 phone. Should you not have your PUK code , you should speak to your Network provider who could provide the PUK code after a number of security checks.
Unlock your NIU Pana N105 by unlock Code is substantially the quickest method to unlock your NIU Pana N105 handset. You may simply buy your NIU Pana N105 unlock code from a web site which will later email your NIU Pana N105 unlock code to you so you simply enter the NIU Pana N105 unlock code into your phone. Straightforward as that and also nearly all websites are going to send you the code within a day or so and some are prompt. You can also obtain the NIU Pana N105 unlock code from your service provider.
Where can I get my NIU Pana N105 Phone Unlocked?
Will unlocking my NIU Pana N105 void the warranty ?
In the event that the service provider who locked the NIU Pana N105 phone agrees and also supplies you with the code to unlock your NIU Pana N105 then is entirely acceptable and will not impact your warranty. In the event that however you unlock the NIU Pana N105 by any other technique you will totally void the warranty and void any future help from the carrier or manufacture.

Which are the best preparation books for UPSC exams?
Going to appear for the UPSC exams? Know from experts which books are the best to help you in preparing for and acing the UPSC exams.
I am preparing for UPSC examination. Can you suggest me some books to prepare for the UPSC exam? Any general tips in preparing would also be helpful.
I used to subscribe the magazine Competition Success Review (CSR) in my child hood. Also, I used to read the Year book published by Manorama Publications. I used to read the newspaper 'The Hindu" thoroughly, page by page. There are no tips and easy ways. You should have thorough knowledge about your subject and good General knowledge and good commonsense.
Wishing you all the best for Civil Services exams!
UPSC examination for civil services is a tough examination and you have to clear preliminary exam to attend the final exam. The books for this examination will be based on the subjects you have chosen. But for general knowledge, you can go through the yearbooks published by Manorama Publications. The Hindu is a very standard newspaper in which all the news published are very reliable and no fake news. Their language is good and your vocabulary will also increase if you go through this paper daily without fail.
Economic and Political Weekly (EPW), Frontline, Science Reporter etc which one can subscribe regularly. Year books from various publications are also useful. Indian Polity by Laxmikanth and Indian Economy by Ramesh Singh are good guide books on these wo subjects.
The preparation for UPSC is a long time process and reading habits for that purpose are to be started right from the time one is in high school classes. This is important because if one starts early then only one can cover many things parallel to ones routine studies and things will be retained in the mind with that intention.
Referring many books within a short time may not serve that purpose because the minor things will escape notice.
What I will suggest is go through the civics, geography, history and other general subjects of class VIII to class XII and many things you can cover from there.
I remember, once a question was asked that how many legs does a common house spider have. Many students confused between 6 and 8. Those who were remembering the Biology of lower classes knew that spider belonged to the group of octopedes and hence it had 8 (octo-) legs.
The point is that if you have a sound educational footing in your schooling you have better chances to attend to these miscelleneous questions.
A candidate for UPSC has to read the newspaper thoroughly and see the unknown abbreviations and name of famous things critically as many of them are asked in the UPSC exam indirect ways.
In the market there are many guidebooks and question banks available but until unless a thorough education background is there one will be confused with a slightly maneuvered question.
For example you may remember that Rajatarngini book is written by the writer Kalhana but if it is asked what is the matter in that book then you may not be able to easily tell that it is the old history of Kashmir.
So just cramming data from the guide books may not help until you also see the things associated with those entities.
If you have sufficient time you can try to read the various text books of class XI and XII pertaining to general subjects.
You may be a cricket fan and may be knowing a lot of cricket things but if you are asked why the captain of a cricket team is called skipper, you will think twice to answer it.
Anyway, my intention is only to tell that our studies should not be superficial if we are really interested in an exam like UPSC.
UPSC main examination consists of three parts and each part namely preliminary, written subject to clearance of preliminary and finally the oral after qualifying the written are the basic tests to assess the potential of the candidate.
Hence it is supposed that the aspirant must have updated information of the current events apart from sound concept of reasoning and a good command over English. So the regular reading habit of any renowned English News Paper will help one to score impressive marks in Preliminary.
For the written part, Books will differ from subject to subject but one thing is certain the knowledge of the candidate must be up to the graduation - level and a sound concept of the subject so chosen would be required. For the preparation of Pure Mathematics books written by ML Khanna would help one to understand the basics of subject and similarly in Physics books of HC Verma would be helpful. It is always benificial to remain in contact with a proper institute for a better guidance of the study - material of the subjects.
However, the rate of success in the final test ie oral test would depend upon thorough understanding of the topic being asked by the member of interview and a clarity of expression. Pay adequate courtesy while one is on the board during the interview session.
There are many guide books, competition related magazines, model questions and question banks etc available in the market and one can prepare for this coveted exam with the help of those reading materials. This is the general trend people follow but here one thing which matters most is what is your background knowledge. Are you starting your preparation from today itself or you had this thing in mind long back and you have already done a lot of home work for this.
This is very important because if the base is not solid the coming structure will be week and unstable.
Anyway we can not go back in the time but we have to compensate that by giving more time now to cover up those things which other aspirants might had done earlier in lower classes.
This is one reason why many people advise the IAS aspirants to go through the text books of class VIII to XII again at this stage. You will not have scarcity of books in this respect but the main thing is how much you can exert and go on doing hard work to achieve this prestigious target.
I am sorry to say that I don't feel your question is genuine. However, so far as General Studies paper is concerned (for both Preliminary and Mains), the study materials of reputed coaching centres like Rau's, Chanakya etc. would be very useful. In addition, candidates study various periodicals like Competition Success Review, Yojana, Manorama Yearbook and the Reference Manual published by the Publication Division of Ministry of Information and Broadcasting are essential. The candidates must read standard English newspapers like The Hindu or the Times of India regularly without fail. Important news-items and news analysis must be preserved for ready reference.
It can be presumed that you are preparing for Civil services Preliminary Examination and you are aware of the CSE pattern. My answer would confine to your Preliminary Examination. The Civil Services Preliminary exam would consist of two papers 200 marks each (General Studies Paper I and General Studies Paper II) and will be of objective type and MCQs to get qualified for the main examination.
The topics covered in the examination include Current events of national and international importance, History of India and Indian National Movement, Indian and World Geography, Indian Polity and Governance, Economics, Environmental, and General Science.
As such, you need to be through with the current events in India and abroad. Follow the Newspapers and news reports regularly. Collect all the NCERT books related to Social studies, geography, and Economics from Class VI to X which will help you a lot. Competition Success Review (CSR) is lending a helping hand to the Civil services aspirants for more than five decades and subscribe for it. GK Today, Indian and Foreign Review, Manorama Year Book, Yojana and many other competitive magazines like Competition Adviser would help you a lot. For paper II, the areas covered are- Comprehension, communication skills, Logical reasoning, and analytical ability, Decision-making and problem-solving, General mental ability and Data Interpretation. If you go through any CAT examination preparation guide, you can pick the elements of learning. Coaching in a reputed institute would always be a valuable addition to your preparation.

In a modern RF analyzer with a digitally sampled IF section real-time means all signal samples are used in calculating measurement results.
Real time analysis means that all signal samples are used to calculate results, or that the calculations are gap-free relative to the stream of signal samples.
If the analyzer frequency span (and therefore its sample rate) is increased as shown in the middle of the figure, the time length of the time record T is shortened proportionally. At some wider frequency span the time record fills just as fast as the Calc time and the analyzer has reached its real-time bandwidth or RTBW. Measurements wider than this frequency span will no longer be real-time.
However even when all samples are included in a calculation for this type of real-time analysis, some samples may be effectively lost due to a process called "windowing" the time record. That process, its benefits, and the use of overlap processing to counter its effects will be discussed in a future post.
One other type of real-time analysis is important here: Time capture followed by post-processing. In this alternate approach the samples are streamed to fast memory without gaps and without processing, providing a long capture buffer that can be post-processed an infinite number of times in an infinite number of ways to provide any type of gap-free results. Real-time bandwidth is fully as wide as the IF, and real-time analysis duration is limited only by memory size.
Both these real-time approaches have powerful benefits and complementary tradeoffs. The first one provides a virtually infinite duration of real-time results along with spectrum measurements that are always up to date. The second approach provides complete measurement flexibility (including vector measurements and demodulation) and a solution to the windowing problem to allow full measurement of every sample. It can thus be especially useful for transient and repeating signals.
Future posts will explore these tradeoffs in more detail, in the context of real world measurements. I'll discuss dedicated real-time analyzers, other tools that perform real-time analysis, and some that do both.

Q: Possibility on huge MySQL database replication I have a mysql database with size 2.4TB which has lots of reads and writes happening continuously. I want to replicate this database as a backup.
But it's almost impossible to get a dump from this database with it's size. Is it possible to create a slave replica without a dump of the master?

A: Plan B:  Stop MySQL; copy the disk.
But first, turn on binlogging so that you will be able to sync up after you get the Slave going.

A: You have two options:
1) Take a snapshot (if your data is in LVM or ZFS) and copy that across.
2) Use xtrabackup.
Both of those approaches will be much faster, too.

Elisabeth Moss: biography
Elisabeth Moss is an American actress who managed to make a fantastic, successful career, to conquer the hearts of her admirers all over the world and to become the owner of the Emmy and Golden Globe awards. The girl's role in the series The Handmaid's Tale became the most famous work for her. However, in her filmography, Elisabeth has many other not less remarkable pictures and characters.
Elisabeth Singleton Moss which is a full name of the actress was born on the 24th of July, 1982 in Los Angeles. The girl's parents were close to the bohemian style of life: her father was a producer of jazz bands and organized records and concerts. Her mother masterly played the concertina and preferred blues melodies. Both of her parents believed in the principles of Ron Hubbard's Scientology.
Since early childhood Elisabeth wanted to be at the center of public attention, the stage and the applause attracted the girl. Moss's hobby was dancing. Elisabeth was improving her dancing skills for long years and being a teenager she even set off for New York to enter the famous ballet school.
Alongside, Elisabeth mastered her acting skills. Due to her parents' persistence, Moss had her screen debut at the age of eight. The girl performed a bit role. However, she was forever enchanted by the magic of the movie set.
Elisabeth Moss in her youth
After a while, Elisabeth began to receive offers to take part in different movies. Though, at first, the beginning actress received only episodic and small parts. Also, Moss voiced over the character of the animated series Once Upon a Forest.
Having grown up, Elisabeth Moss has faced a difficult choice: the girl had to define her future main profession — dancing or acting. Her love to the spotlights has won, and Elisabeth continued her acting career and decided to connect her life with the movie industry.
In the beginning, Elisabeth received roles of clumsy teenage girls, but with time Moss's characters changed, and already in the series, The West Wing the actress got the image of the sophisticated girl. The picture under the title Girl, Interrupted became one of the brightest Elisabeth's works of that period.

Later the actress confessed in one of the interviews that this movie had given her valuable experience in the star cast of real professionals. Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie, Whoopi Goldberg also took part in this dramatic picture about the destiny of the girls who had got to the mental hospital.
In 2002 Elisabeth received a role in one more tragedy. It was the film Heart of America which plot is focused on the teenagers who had brought a weapon to the school with the aim of revenge their schoolmates for bullying and mockery. Patrick Muldoon, Brendan Fletcher, Will Sanderson became the actress's partners on the movie set of this picture.
Elisabeth Moss in the picture Virgin
Elisabeth Moss got her first leading role a year later. In 2003 there was released the movie Virgin. The actress's character is the girl who grew up in the family of fanatical Baptists. All the people of the town where Jessie lives (the role performed by Moss) are mad about religion. Nobody understands teenage difficulties and sufferings of the heroine. She has to escape from all this with the help of alcohol and cigarettes. Inimitable Robin Wright played the role of Jessie's mother.
The roles mentioned above and others have brought some popularity and spectators' attention to Elisabeth, however, she has gained true glory a little bit later - after the release of the series Mad Men. The plot is focused on the routine of the advertising agency, details of the relations between employees and different situations in which they face in their everyday life.
Elisabeth Moss in the series Mad Men
Moss received the role of the secretary who regularly gets into trouble. Elisabeth's acting has impressed the audience and the critics so much that she was even nominated for Emmy Awards.
Alongside with her work in Mad Men, Elisabeth Moss took part in the Broadway production сalled Moving on and also appeared in a couple of episodes of the various pictures. In 2007 the girl performed in the cult series Grey's Anatomy, and in 2009 the actress enriched her filmography with one more film under the title Did You Hear About the Morgans?, in which Moss received a role of the assistant of the character of Sarah Jessica Parker.
Elisabeth Moss in the series Top of the Lake
A year later the actress participated in the episodes of the comedy directed by Nicholas Stoller under the title Get Him to the Greek. In 2013 there was released the series Top of the Lake in which Elisabeth received the leading role.
Elisabeth Moss also had unsuccessful works in her career. So, in 2014 the Broadway production of The Heidi Chronicles in which the actress took part was closed because of the little interest from the public. However, Moss's acting didn't remain unnoticed: the girl was nominated for Tony Awards. However, that time other actress received the desired award — it was Helen Mirren.
Elisabeth Moss and Max Minghella in the series The Handmaid's Tale
But in 2017 Elisabeth Moss again received a role in the series which have become extremely popular with the time. The girl got the leading role in the Bruce Miller's project under the title The Handmaid's Tale. These series is a screen version of the anti-utopia novel written by Margaret Atwood.
Viewing the dramatic events of The Handmaid's Tale the audience didn't remain indifferent, and the actress's acting was noted by the Golden Globe Awards. Max Minghella, Samira Wiley, Joseph Fiennes became Elisabeth's partners on the movie set.
In 2008 the actor Fred Armisen appeared in the private life of Elisabeth. He is known to the spectators due to the TV show Saturday Night Live. In 2009 Moss agreed to become his wife. They celebrated their wedding in New York.
Elisabeth Moss and Fred Armisen
Unfortunately, the relations of the couple went bad. Already in a year, the fans who were impatiently waiting for the news about the pregnancy of their favorite actress read about her divorce from her husband. The couple had no children.
Nothing is known yet about Elisabeth Moss's new relations. In one of the interviews, the girl confessed that she considered herself to be a feminist and made serious demands to her prospective dearies. Moreover, Moss keeps beliefs in the Scientology doctrines.
Elisabeth Moss and Kate Moss
Elisabeth Moss is often compared to her colleague in cinematography – Meryem Uzerli, who is famous due to her role in the Turkish series under the title The Magnificent Century. The girls have something in common in their appearance. Also, Elisabeth's name quite often appears while mentioning the model and the actress Kate Moss. The fans compare the girls' photos hoping to find some similarity. Though, Elisabeth and Kate aren't relatives.
At present Elisabeth Moss continues to work on the series The Handmaid's Tale which according to the information received in spring of 2018 was prolonged for one more season. Moreover, the actress began to take part in the shootings of the series Fever. This series tells about "typhoid Mary" - the woman who was the first healthy women infected with this disease in the United States.

We've not mentioned our old buddy, The Mouth From Mesa North, lately - with good reason. Seems our pal has decided he's going to become a kind of low rent Matt Drudge. Rather than dazzle us with the product of his prodigious intellect with his blog posts on the CM Press, recently he's become an aggregator - a guy who only links to the works of others.
And, recently he's added the ability to comment on his blog. The only problem with that is that no one noticed, so he's begun begging for comments. I know from personal experience that he doesn't post all comments sent to him. I guess he'll only post comments that agree with his racist world view of things.
And, rather than post a new entry when newsworthy events occur during the day, he simply crams another entry or entries onto the original post for the day.
Today, between 5 a.m. and 11 a.m. he's posted twice on the same entry. The most recent one discusses items on the recently-announced Parks and Recreation Commission agenda for their meeting next Wednesday. He attempted to provide hot links to a couple of agenda items, but managed to screw that up, too.
One of the items, the proposed contract between Aztec Basketball Leagues to rent the facility at the Downtown Recreation Center on Sunday mornings for organized basketball competition, raised his ire. Wonder if the ethnic orientation of the name had anything to do with it? Of course it did!
According to the staff report, by permitting Aztec Basketball League to use the facility on Sunday mornings pick-up volleyball and basketball games would be excluded for those hours, costing the city roughly $3400 in annual revenue. In return, Aztec would provide more than $43,000 in revenue to the city. Seems like a good deal, especially when you realize that only a half dozen people would be displaced on Sunday mornings and that alternative playing times are available to them later in the day.
Our old buddy, The Mouth, has recently taken the entire City Council to task - standing at the speaker's podium and using his three minutes to vent his spleen at them for any number of transgressions - mainly their lack of performance on budget issues. As I watch him rant and rave, flailing his arms and turning beet red, I fear for his health. I'd hate to seem him suffer some kind of seizure while berating the council.
So, to make him feel better, I suggest you submit comments to his blog from time to time so the poor man no longer has to beg for comments. I'm not sure what it will take to get them posted - perhaps some obtuse reference to DNA or the wisdom of selective breeding will do it.
This poor fellow has become a caricature of himself and is becoming progressively more irrelevant in our community as his predictable, inane rants become even more difficult for people to take seriously.

Q: RBSplitView has delayed reload of autosaved view positions I really enjoy using RBSplitView, an open source replacement for NSSplitView, but I have a problem in my shipping app and am experiencing it again in a new project.
The problem is I'm telling the RBSplitView to autosave its position state by giving it an autosave name. When my app launches the RBSplitView doesn't seem to honor the saved state till a second after the window is drawn.
I've spent the night trying to debug the behavior but have had little success. Anyone out there use this lib and have some advice?
You can scrub this quicktime movie to the issue at work:
http://media.clickablebliss.com/billable/interface_experiments/rbsplitview_delayed_autosave_reload2.mov

A: I've still been unable to figure out why this is happening but I do have a workaround.
First, make sure your main window is not visible at launch and then at the end of applicationDidFinishLaunching in your app delegate add something like:
[mainWindow performSelector:@selector(makeKeyAndOrderFront:) withObject:self afterDelay: 0.1];
The delay is the key. If you just tell the window to makeKeyAndOrderFront: I still see the issue. However as long as it has a beat of time it looks good.

A: This likely is happening because the RBSplitView instance needs to wait until it's first moment to get to set its frame to the autosaved value, which happens to be after the user can see it. This 0.0-delay trick simply delays showing the window until the very next runloop, which gives the split view a chance to do its magic (and other views) so that when the user sees the window, it's already nice and sexy. So just do the delay at 0.0 and you'll be fine.

A: I have a similar, but slightly different workaround in my app that uses RBSplitView.  In applicationDidFinishLaunching:, I call adjustSubviews on the split view before calling makeKeyAndOrderFront: on the window that contains it.  This seems to knock the split view in to order before it gets displayed on the screen.


Waldorf, MD—Demonstrating top-notch knowledge and skills, delivery professionals from Chaney Enterprises took top awards at the recent Maryland State Truck Driving Championships in Timonium. More than 100 truck driving professionals from across the state competed.
Chaney Enterprises' Aggregate Delivery Professional (ADP) Tyrone (Sam) Brown from Waldorf Sand & Gravel won third place in the dump truck division. Concrete Delivery Professional (CDP) Steve Waclawski from the Bestgate Plant won second place in the concrete mixer division. Billy Hickman, CDP at the Waldorf Plant, took third place.
Both Waclawski and Hickman are preparing for the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association's "National Mixer Driver Championship" truck driving tournament on September 16 at National Harbor in Prince George's County, Maryland. The driver competition kicks off the 2012 ConcreteWorks Conference & Expo, the NRMCA's national convention. Chaney Enterprises is the host company for this event, in which more than 30 mixer drivers from around the country will compete for the "Best of the Best" title.
The truck driving competition consists of three phases. Drivers must execute driving maneuvers along a complicated field course that simulates conditions frequently encountered on highways or jobsites across the country. Next the drivers must successfully complete a pre-trip inspection on a specified vehicle; then, drivers are tested on their knowledge of operations and safety regulations.
Concrete Delivery Professional Steve Waclawski maneuvers his concrete mixer through one of the complicated gates during the 2012 Maryland State Truck Driving Championship in June.

Weightlifting wins medals in SA
SHARE | Sunday, 10 May 2015	| By Ontametse Sugar
STRONG MEN, Body builders striking a pose
Botswana Body Building and Weightlifting Federation (BBWF) had representatives in the just ended South African championships and they brought home medals.
BBWF Secretary General Alex Rankgwe said the Championships involved Under-14 all the way to the seniors. Since weightlifting is still one of the fresh codes in the country, Rankgwe said they saw it fit to take part in a series of competitions to prepare for the Africa games. He said they have particularly included South African championships in the calendar to test their performance and see whether they are preparing properly in order to be able to rectify where they might be wrong. South Africa is currently ranked number one in the continent in weightlifting. "We went to Port Elizabeth where they were hosted and featured in the 56kg category, 62, 77, 85, and 95+," he said.
In all these categories Botswana managed to get medals with Alfred Gaothobogwe getting gold in the 56 kg category, Timothy Rantaung gold in 62kg, Onthusitse Simon gold in 95 kg, Alpheous Kagiso bronze in 85 kg and Dikabelo Solomon bronze in 77kg. One of the athletes who got the medal represented the code during the Gaborone 2014 Africa youth games. Rankgwe said he is very impressed of the athlete because though he is young and has shown dramatic improvement. He said that this will help them as they gear up for the Africa junior championships in July. Rankgwe regretted that were failing to attract girls to the sport. "We only have three committed girls now in the code, others have all left," he added. He said they are happy now that they have until September in order to prepare the team for Africa. He said that they have an influx of people coming to the BNSC wanting to join, and as such they plan to hold a workshop by end of May or beginning of June to make people understand more about the sport. He said one thing that they are working on that they will reveal at the Annual General Meeting is the separation of weightlifting from body building and powerlifting so that it stands on its own since it is the Olympic sport while others are not Olympic sports. He said this comes after the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) revealed that they do not want to be a part of codes that are not Olympic sports.

FIVE FOR THE FOURTH: AL-NAMROOD, DECLINE OF THE I, VANHÄVD, PANZER SQUAD, WOLFBASTARD AN NCS VIDEO PREMIERE: ANGEROT — "RIVERS OF CHAOS"
DELIRIUM REIGNS SUPREME: PLOUGHSHARE, DESTROYER ATTACK, ERIPHION, LODGE OF THE EMPTY BED
Album Reviews, RANDOM FUCKING MUSIC, SHORT BUT SWEET Add comments
Sometimes when you have no plan, the plan makes itself. A guiding hand intervenes, or if you're not superstitious, you nod your head at the pleasures of serendipity and synchronicity.
I didn't plan to make this post, but in searching for new music I happened, by a fortunate chance, to listen to the music in this post in the exact same order as I'm presenting it here. And it all seemed to fit together in a way that spawned the title of this post.
PLOUGHSHARE
Literature of Piss was the 2017 debut EP of this band from Canberra, Australia. In Offal, Salvation is the band's 2018 debut album. "The Urinary Chalice Held Aloft" is the name of one of the tracks on the album. Perhaps you begin to get a sense of the band's worldview.
I reviewed the EP here, and was mightily impressed by it. The EP tracks had no words as titles; the album does, and as you can already tell, they're quite evocative. The first one made available for streaming, just yesterday, is named "Flesh Cleft Upon Writhing Altars". It is a catalytic experience, and one that also subducts the listener, pulling us into a nether realm of madness, where we might indeed imagine the cleaving of flesh upon writhing altars.
The music blasts and races, the voice howls in violent ecstasy, the melodies themselves writhe like serpents and spiral upward like flickering flames. Just as you're really getting caught up in the whirl of otherworldly lunacy, it ends… which is frustrating. Like a cliffhanger, it left me on the edge, wondering what will happen next.
In Offal, Salvation will be released by Impure Sounds on August 25th.

DESTROYER ATTACK
Solve Et Coagula is the name of the second album by Destroyer Attack, a black/death band formed in Guayaquil, Ecuador, and now apparently based in Medellin, Colombia. It will be released through Morbid Skull Records on July 13th.
"Fiendish energy and barbaric uproar, directly descended from the antediluvian hellscape" — those are some of the words employed in a press release we received in an effort to capture the atavistic assaulting power of the music. As displayed on the track "Purification to the Internal Fire", Destroyer Attack mount their attack with a flurry of dismal riffing and pounding percussion as a prelude to a surge of boiling guitars, maniacal kit-work, and bestial growls full of murderous fury, made even more explosive by a shrieking solo.
It's a lethal combination, somehow both deranged and cruelly cold, and there's a febrile (and infectious) riff in the song that happily reminded me of one in Rotting Christ's "Enuma Elish" — not the same riff, to be sure, but producing a similar ecstatic effect.

Solve Et Coagula by Destroyer Attack
ERIPHION
Hossana is both the name of the debut EP by the Athenian black metal band Eriphion and also the word I exclaimed in my head after listening to it. An ancient word, it was originally an appeal for deliverance, but came to serve as an expression of joy and praise for deliverance granted or anticipated. In my head, purged of ecclesiastical significance, it just sounds like FUCK YEAH!.
The title track, which launches the EP, immediately sends megawatts of electrification rushing through the nervous system, its furious blast-beats, rapidly pulsing bass, and high, whirring riff looping over and over as the vocalist howls in imperious fashion. When the rushing violence subsides, the music becomes eerie and ominous, and the slow, jackhammering cadence will maketh your head to move up and down like a dying piston.
A kind of infernal eminence seems to rise up in perilous grandeur during that opening track before the band reprise the boiling madness that started it. In the remaining three tracks, they continue to display the same level of capable song-writing, while adroitly changing the moods and energies of the music.
"My Fate" (the EP's most emotionally affecting track, along with the closer) houses a melancholy melody that soars, without abandoning that feeling of pain and loss; "Forever Me" is a grim and menacing pile-driver, ritualistic in its cadence and laced with shimmering tendrils of melody that help create the feeling of a luciferian black mass in progress; "The Forest" ends the EP in tour de force fashion, with solemn, mesmerizing, funereally paced music steeped in grief and gloom, the shrieking wretchedness of the vocals bringing to mind the madness of shattering hopelessness, the aching, rising trill of the lead guitar burrowing deeper and deeper, lingering long after the EP ends.
Hossana is a huge surprise, an unusually accomplished and multifaceted creation that sounds years ahead of what you might expect from any band's first EP. It was released on June 23rd via Bandcamp, where it's a "name your own price" download.

LODGE OF THE EMPTY BED
A Bandcamp alert yesterday provided the news that Glossolalia Records (based in Eugene, Oregon) had just released an EP named Pacta Sunt Servanda by a project named Lodge of the Empty Bed. According to the Bandcamp page, Glossolalia's Stephen Parker (The Will of A Million) recorded the EP in the Wilderness and was also session bassist; the band consists of instrumentalist/vocalist A False Memory and vocalist Pillar and Light, who also seem to have been involved in Grst and Maestus.
The three compact tracks on the EP fly by, but don't sound alike. "Cognatio Naturalis" rips and rocks, with a feeling of blood-freezing delirium coursing through its poisonous veins. The vocals in that one are a shrieking nightmare, even more lunatic than the feverish psychosis that boils in the song's most frenzied moments. By contrast, the vocals in "Ecclesiastical Law of Flesh" are a combination of grotesque roars that seem to come from a monstrous belly of hate and incinerating screams; while the music moves from grim, brutish hammering and scampering to a kind of wild, incandescent flare of sound, and back again.
The final track, "Natural Law of Flesh", goes nuts again, blasting and flailing, with the acid-blasting vocals dominant once more. There's a queasy, unnerving quality to the melody — and really, the whole EP is unnerving, but a well-concocted venture into a mind-razoring realm of loathing and degeneration.
The tape release of Pacta Sunt Servanda was sold out by the time of its release yesterday, but it's available as a download.

Loved it, Ann—well captured—fun to read. You absolutely "nailed it." We missed all the struggles with shopping—hit our local QFC on Thursday morning, but by the afternoon the cars were lined up on First South trying to get in the parking lot. My oh my—how many inches did you get???
Here in Victoria, we are shivering and sliding through snow as well. It's so cold! I haven't been grocery shopping since all this started a week ago, so I hope I'm not met with empty shelves tomorrow!


Although this is listed as a fantasy story it is much more an adventure story. True, the story is set in an imaginary world but it is a very recognisable one. Professor Holloran went missing when he left on a mission to follow some ancient texts referring to a well of youth, allegedly giving eternal life to the lucky drinker of this magical water. So the government sends out a dashing female captain, the professor's favourite student Andy and another scholar named Osewyn to find both the professor and the well. What follows is an adventure that features a marvellous ship called Juggernaut, an encounter with a Kraken,pirates,ice covered landscapes, huskies and colourful characters. This is the first in the trilogy and as said before, it is a great adventure story.

Investment in consumers at GABS Hottest 100
December 7, 2021 by Clare Burnett
GABS has just opened consumer voting for the Hottest 100 Aussie Craft Beer poll and while the fundamentals are staying the same, the GABS team has been investing in the growth of this year's competition.
The aim for the poll's 14th year is to grow awareness of the poll and craft beer in general, according to owner Mike Bray, who took over the competition and GABS Festivals in 2019.
"We've invested heavily in the consumer engagement side of the Hottest 100, with a brand new voting pool and on the brewer side, a new nomination portal to make life easier for brewers," Bray explained.
"On the consumer side, we're going to be holding bigger celebrations and more visual celebrations for all the beer and brewers. That voting experience is going to another level."
Discussions have been had in the industry around the voting mechanisms for the GABS Hottest 100 voting, with suggestions being made that it be limited to the previous 12 months of beer releases, or that the top beers are retired after a number of years to allow a change of guard at the top. But if it's not broke, there's no need to fix it, according to Bray.
"There were some ideas and discussions [about changing the mechanics of the Hottest 100]," he explained.
"We consulted with a lot of people in the industry and the general feedback was that it really works well and has worked well for the past 10 to 12 years, especially for those that have been at the pointy end of it.
"It might need a lick of paint to enhance the consumer experience, but does not necessarily need to be rebuilt."
One criticism of the Hottest 100 is that with a stable of much-loved beers which regularly take the top spots, there isn't much room for newcomers. While this may be true of certain top spots, the rest of the list is much more diverse, explained Bray.
"30 per cent of the list changes each year, not too much change in the top 10 but roughly 30 new beers out of the 100, or are beers that have dropped out and returned which is a large number. So I think craft drinkers have a great understanding of what's a good beer," said Bray.
Marketing is also a key factor, with some breweries having the resources and time to spend on campaigning for a Hottest 100 spot in-house, whilst others do not have the same advantages.
"Last year Bad Shepherd made the Hottest 100, they didn't campaign hard but the beer stands up for itself," Bray highlighted.
"And a big trend in last year's Hottest 100, was that Queensland breweries are starting to come to the fore.
"This reflects the emergence of craft in Queensland, specifically the regional areas where there's a lot of excitement and passion in supporting local breweries.
"If you look at the can designs, a small brewery in Queenstown won the GABS Design Awards in NZ, they might not have the biggest fan base, but consumers are saying they have great design.
"The consumers do dictate the outcome at the end of the day."
Of course, the Hottest 100 is a popularity contest in a conventional sense, but Bray explained that the growing knowledge of craft beer's fan base means they are also "prosumers" with an idea of beer quality as well.
"We've got the most astute consumer market out there, look at Bentspoke, they've been on the podium for four years and have gone on to win some of the most prestigious peer awards.
"It's a popularity vote, but the consumer has a strong understanding of what's a great beer too."
This certainly seems to be the case when listing with major bottleshop chains, as Endeavour Group Craft Beer Category Manager Billy Ryan explained, with awards like the Hottest 100 being a contributing factor to ranging decisions at the major bottleshops BWS and Dan Murphy's.
"When deciding what beers to range in our stores, we look at a multitude of factors including quality, beer style, connection to the local community and branding," Ryan said.
"Awards are important for the craft beer industry as it celebrates the achievements of breweries. Whether a beer has won an award is one of the many factors we consider in our range reviews," he explained.
Bray explained that the plan was to expand the Hottest 100 to a year-round campaign.
"It's a celebration for the consumer, we are on an equal footing and put forward every beer nominated. We don't want to deprive a consumer of saying theirs was a limited edition release from their local brewery and they cant vote for it because they haven't been nominated – the consumer can nominate themselves.
"We're looking to grow people voting and this lets them nominate the beer from another brewery. Its all about the consumer, the consumer connecting back to their favourite brewery and beer and having that opportunity to vote for them.
""We also aim to get another 10-20 per cent of venues joining the celebrations, which is great for breweries, venues and craft beer.
"There's a lot of investment and emphasis on that part of it. We want to celebrate every craft beer out there and want consumers to have the opportunity to celebrate them too."

The Secret to Success is Exceptional Customer Service
One of Payscout's core Cultural Attributes is Customer Happiness. This simple, yet essential, principle is a key driving force behind the company's success in one of its specialty verticals: Accounts Receivable Management (ARM). A recent report from Forrester showed 72% of businesses consider "improving customer experience" their number one goal. One way to achieve that goal is for the leadership team to explicitly state – and continually reinforce – the importance of Customer Happiness. Payscout has developed an exceptional reputation for customer service in all merchant verticals, including tougher-to-board-and-support industries such as Collections, Money Services Businesses, Marketplaces, and others.
Ensuring success in the ARM industry Accounts Receivable and corporate collecting is one of the most crucial processes for any business owner. Cash inflow issues can affect every aspect of the business, which is why many entrepreneurs partner with dedicated, professional account collection firms to ensure the accounts receivable process runs and is managed smoothly. These professional collections (ARM) firms – which play a critical role in ensuring a company is as successful as they can be – that Payscout supports in an exceptional way. Payscout serves many of the top ARM and debt collection agencies and accounts receivable management agencies in the United States. Our recorded retention rate was 98.63% at the end of 2015 – a sure sign that the Customer Happiness attribute is yielding an incredible customer experience. Supporting the entrepreneurial dream! One of the ways Payscout provides exceptional customer service is by always thinking about the end user – in this case, the small-to-medium-sized business owner who hired a professional collections firm to help them keep their inbound cash flow consistent with the outbound products and services they provide. These business owners rely on the ARM service provider's expertise and experience to ensure the accounts receivable process runs properly with up-to-date software, security and verification tools to help clients remain compliant with government regulations. Payscout is ranked among the top tier of servicers for the receivables management vertical because those are precisely the solutions they provide: security, built-in PCI compliance, real-time automatic settlement, and no duplicate accounting or manual entry. According to a recent report from Forbes on the Ten Customer Service And Customer Experience Trends For 2017, companies can lose as much as $62 billion per year due to poor customer service. That's a powerful example of the value of ensuring Customer Happiness – and for Payscout, that means beginning with the end-user in mind and committing to providing the exact tools the customer needs to succeed.
Going Global? You'll Need These Multi-Layered Fraud Solutions
Cross-border ecommerce represents a tremendous opportunity for enterprising entrepreneurs, but the opportunity comes with a caveat: Cross-border fraud is on the rise.
Fortunately, emerging technologies are adding advanced layers of fraud protection to facilitate safe, secure transactions that enable entrepreneurs to maximize the opportunity. The progression is rather simple, really: An entrepreneur selling widgets out of a brick-and-mortar operation realizes the expanded reach an ecommerce site would afford them and they start processing online. As market share grows and business booms, the prospect of expanding the customer base by going global is too compelling to miss. But what changes when an entrepreneur wants to start processing (and fulfilling) card-not-present (CNP) transactions across borders? The biggest obstacle is unquestionably fraud – and the potential solutions are driving a revolution in multi-layered fraud protection technologies.
Consider the technology designed to mitigate fraud in each of the merchant channels described in the example above. At the point-of-sale (POS), EMV (Europay, Mastercard and Visa) technology is already dramatically reducing the risk of identity theft and card/PAN (personal account number) theft. However, as technology improves at one level, the fraudsters find their new opportunity at the next. In domestic CNP transactions, technology tools such as address verification services (AVS) and CVV2 are standard here in the United States. In cross-border commerce, however, the entrepreneurs (and consumers) require added layers of security.
Multi-layered fraud tools (such as Payscout's fraud solution suite) connect to multiple data sources, such as device fingerprinting and geo-location services, on top of the AVS and CVV2 solutions. Those added layers of security support more secure transactions, provide further insight and promote quality know-your-customer (KYC) practices. Cross-border merchants need fraud solutions that create customized fraud algorithms, based on the entrepreneur's requirements, that connect to multiple data sources. With these solutions in place, merchants can protect their bottom line – and their margin growth.
These technology tools (and partnering with the right payment processor to provide them) help merchants reduce risk and maintain margin growth. Payscout is leveraging these tools on a global scale in an effort to achieve its mission to "support the entrepreneurial dream one [secure] transaction at a time."
The Key to Great Culture? Lead by Example.
Payscout CEO Cleveland Brown spent the morning of February 15 at his alma mater, UCLA, delivering a guest lecture to 75 bright minds in Professor Hopenhayn's Economics of Entrepreneurship class at the Anderson School of Business. Coincidentally, the guest lecture he delivered was both about – and itself a reflection of – Payscout's Culture. Mr. Brown spoke to the students about achieving their entrepreneurial dreams through a commitment to creating culture through the foundation of a Vision, Mission Statement, Cultural Attributes, and Belief. "It's great for these students to learn a logical progression on implementing culture as fundamental to entrepreneurship," said Hugo Hopenhayn, Professor of Economics at UCLA and a fellow of the Econometric Society. "It is imperative that our students are taught the real world challenges and to have someone that has been in their shoes to lead by example." Setting that example, and making the time to volunteer as a guest lecturer at his Alma Mater, is just one of the ways Payscout CEO Cleveland Brown exemplifies Payscout's Belief, "every individual has a social responsibility to make the world a better a place." "The Culture is our foundation," said Brown, "our Vision, Mission, Cultural Attributes, and Belief help guide the decision-making process for our team and make Payscout a great place to work." Those benefits of great culture are starting to pay off. Payscout was recently featured on Entrepreneur's Top Company Cultures list, a comprehensive ranking of U.S.-based businesses exhibiting high-performance cultures. The Top Company Cultures list placed Payscout at #17 among medium-sized businesses. "Having great culture is the thing we're most proud of at Payscout," said Brown. "It's an honor for me to come to UCLA, live up to our Belief statement, and use this opportunity to speak to the business leaders of tomorrow about the keys to creating great culture."

Leadership Training for the Future
On Thursday, March 2, Payscout partnered with the Jefferson Awards Foundation to support the Students In Action leadership training event in Downtown LA.
The Jefferson Awards Foundation launched the Students In Action program in 2006 with a goal of developing today's students into tomorrow's community leaders. The three pillars of the program are Leadership, Engagement, and Impact, and on Thursday, over 140 high school and middle schoolers from the greater Los Angeles area gathered for a day spent honing their leadership abilities.
Payscout Chief Operating Officer Juan Sotelo was an active participant in the event, supporting the training curriculum by delivering a presentation on Ethics. In his talk, Mr. Sotelo emphasized the importance of leading with integrity – and why ethics matter for student, business, and community leaders alike.
"This was our vision when we announced our partnership with the Jefferson Awards Foundation and launched Payscout Gives," said Mr. Sotelo, referring to a series of community outreach initiatives that focus on supporting education and social entrepreneurship. "The chance for us to support leadership training for tomorrow's community leaders ties directly to our company Belief statement: every individual has a social responsibility to make the world a better place."
"We're elated and thrilled to have a partner like Payscout to support and participate in an event where we power students to have maximum impact on the issues they care about most through our Students In Action program," said Jackeline Muñoz, Greater Los Angeles Regional Program Manager at the Jefferson Awards Foundation. "We are empowering the leaders of tomorrow, and Juan and the Payscout team not only had a direct impact in helping make our training a success, but they also serve as an extraordinary example of compassionate leadership."

Late Power-Play Goal Stuns Spartans
The Spartans were able to dodge the five-minute major Friday night, but it cost them the game Saturday as Patrick Lee scored on the power play with 9.9 seconds on the clock to lift UMass to a 4-3 win over the Spartans at Munn Ice Arena.
"I thought we got what we earned," coach Tom Anastos said. "I didn't think we were ready to start the game. You just beat a team, you know they are going to come at you hard and we didn't match that intensity and we're at home. I was very disappointed in that."
Lee's power-play goal came on Michigan State's second five-minute major penalty of the weekend, this one a contact to the head penalty to alternate captain Justin Hoomaian.
On a positive note, the beat went on for the Spartans' top line, as they continued to produce. Matt Berry, Michael Ferrantino and Mackenzie MacEachern combined for three goals and three assists. On the weekend, the trio combined for six goals and eight assists.
"It's gotten better as we've gone I think," said Ferrantino, who registered a goal and assist tonight. "We're starting to feel our chemistry come up a little bit. I think we talk really well. We're always communicating whether it's on the ice or we get back to the bench, we're constantly critiquing ourselves and figuring out how we can get better."
The Spartans were without forward Brent Darnell, who received a suspension from the Big Ten for his hit on Ben Gallacher Friday night. Darnell was assessed a five-minute major and game misconduct for boarding. Tanner Sorenson made his season debut in Darnell's spot.
The Minutemen made a few roster adjustments as well, including starting freshman goaltender Henry Dill over senior Steve Mastalerz, who started Friday night.
The first 15 minutes of this game appeared to be a goaltending duel until the floodgates opened and the lamp was lit three times in a span of 2:17.
The Minutemen would break the ice with Steven Iacobellis' first goal of the season. Iacobellis drove the net, threw on the breaks and redirected a centering pass by Ray Pigozzi to the back of the net.
Only 1:20 later, Berry would take the puck up the left wing and beat Dill with a wrist shot to the blocker side to tie the game.
The Minutemen would retake the lead 57 seconds later as Jake Horton deflected a spin-o-rama pass from Iacobellis in the slot.
The Spartans would get even in an unorthodox way close to midway through the second period, as Berry would score his fourth goal of the weekend.
"I was just on the right side of center ice and I tried to dump it cross corner," Berry said. "Next thing I know, I'm trying to get off the ice and I heard the goal horn go off. I didn't see it. I didn't know even what happened. I didn't see it until the replay."
As Berry dumped the puck towards the opposite corner, it took an odd bounce on the ice and rocketed back towards the net, completely surprising Dill and it slid to the back of the cage.
The bounce was not a surprise given there were some problems with the ice. Between periods the ice could not be resurfaced so a dry scrape was performed, which ruined the quality of the ice.
"The ice is, essentially, gradually melting," Anastos said. "As the game wore on, the ice was really wet. You're really playing prevent to a certain extent because you don't know how that puck is going to bounce."
Anastos compared the ice in the latter stages of the game to playing on an outdoor rink.
Early in the third, the Spartans were able to take their first lead of the game with Ferrantino's first of the year, as he slammed the puck off the crossbar and into the net.
Michigan State would fail to score on the next power play and would start to get into some penalty trouble of it's own for a good portion of the rest of the game.
"You climb back after a sluggish start and you put yourself in a position to win, you need to take advantage of that," Anastos said. "We had some good scoring chances that we didn't finish. We have to take advantage of that."
With just under five minutes left in the third, the Spartans had trouble clearing the defensive zone and Iacobellis was the beneficiary, as he camped out at the side of the net. The puck bounced its way towards him and he put it in to tie the game at three with 4:32 to go.
Hoomaian would take his contact to the head major 43 seconds later, and Lee's goal at 19:50 stunned the Munn crowd and stood as the game-winning goal. The goal put UMass at 1-5 on the power play.
Michigan State's power play was 0-4.
"Coming into the game, I thought the special teams could be a difference in the game. Unfortunately, I was right," Anastos said. "We dug ourselves out of a hole and put ourselves in a decent position, only to dig ourselves in a hole again. It's an opportunity for this team to learn some valuable lessons. There's a lot to learn this weekend, both good and not so good."
"This one was almost in our lap, so this one stings," Ferrantino said. "It definitely stings and we wanted to get the sweep at home in front of our fans. It's tough right now but we will battle back and we have a good weekend coming up for us."
Next weekend, the Spartans go on the road to New England to take on Boston University and UMass Lowell.
