Outside the fighter's dressing room, two West Orange, N.J., police officers stood guard. Just a few feet away in the South Mountain Arena corridor, a crowd had gathered behind a wooden sawhorse.
In that film, Stallone, as Rocky Balboa, has taken on a protege named Tommy (Machine) Gunn - played by a real-life heavyweight, Tommy Morrison, who at that moment lay on a wooden bench in a white T-shirt and yellow sweatpants, his eyes closed.
The plan was for Stallone and his actor accomplices to accompany Morrison into the arena, help him through the ring ropes while cameras rolled and footage was compiled that could be used in the film.
But for Morrison, the bout was real. The fine line between play-acting and sport was delineated earlier in the evening when Avildsen asked if the actors could jump into the ring immediately after the fight ended, presumably a victory for Morrison.
Morrison's cornerman, Doug Draggert, expressed reluctance, preferring that the real cornermen get in first.
But the Morrison team finally agreed to give the actors first crack at their fighter.
At 9:05 P.M., Morrison, in what was supposed to be the red, white and blue trunks Rocky had worn earlier in his career - actually a copy weathered in coffee - entered the ring, with Stallone holding the ropes for him, trailed by the actor-cornermen Burt Young and Jimmy Gambina.
Once the bell sounded for the first round, the actors took up positions in a free corner, as if they were part of the action Stallone had assumed would be short-lived, given Morrison's undefeated (19-0, 17 knockouts) record. In a dressing room, he had asked Bill Cayton, Morrison's co-manager, ''Is it possible it could go two, three rounds?'' - rather than the anticipated first-round knockout.
Cayton seemed surprised by the question. ''There's no assurance,'' he said. Morrison appeared too eager to satisfy Stallone's vision. From the first round he was loading up on his punches, hoping for a knockout. In the process, Morrison was hit, was bloodied - a small cut below his right eye - and never did hit Lorenzo Canady with his vaunted left hook. But he did manage to win a six-round decision.
For a crowd looking for a Hollywood ending, that was not enough. The boos sounded, as Stallone and company climbed into the ring to congratulate their fighter. The final unscripted verdict from South Mountain Arena was: ''You're a lousy trainer, Stallone,'' shouted a ringsider.
If you have an iPhone and you're into weapons, there's an app for that. I stumbled across Modern Weapons - Small Arms (Encyclopedia of Guns) in the Reference section of the AppStore, and I have to say -- it's workin for me.
For .99 cents, you get a handy little guide that covers common types of small arms from pistols and rifles to hand grenades and man-portable SAMs.
I like it because it offers pretty accurate specs (so far) on infantry weapons that are seen in daily news coverage of Afghanistan, Libya and other fun-filled places.
It provides info on more than 600 weapons across 11 different catagories. The thumbnail pics on the specs pages are small, but the app also provides additional photos that are usually larger and show more detail.
There's also an option that links to YouTube videos of the weapon if available.
Another nice feature marked "Locate" allows you to type in your zipcode for gunshops and shooting ranges in your area.
Of course with most information found on the web, you need to be cautious. But I have yet to find a gun reference that's free of small mistakes -- and that includes many gun manufacture websites.
If anyone else out there has found other worthy gun apps, please share them with the rest of us.

Two people died and 10 were injured, some seriously, when a Royal Air Force (RAF) helicopter crashed in northern England, local police said on Thursday.
The defence ministry launched a rescue operation late Wednesday after the aircraft crashed at about 9pm (2000 GMT) near the Catterick Garrison in North Yorkshire, where it had been to work with the army.
A spokesman for North Yorkshire Police said that two of the people on board had died. He added that of the 12 people on the aircraft, three were RAF crew, and nine army personnel were passengers.
Earlier, a spokeswoman for the defence ministry, speaking on customary condition of anonymity, said she could not provide details on the people who were injured, but noted that they suffered from "a range of injuries, from very serious to walking wounded."
A spokesman for North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said that rescue crews were at the scene, while aircraft from nearby Royal Air Force bases had also been dispatched.
Local police said that the crash site was cordoned off.
RAF spokesman Michael Mulford earlier told the BBC that the ministry will launch a board of inquiry into why the helicopter crashed, and added that he could not provide details on the type of helicopter, or on whether a distress call had been sent out.
"The board of inquiry will start work ... through the night or certainly today, and they will take as long as it takes to work their way through and determine what happened here," Mulford told the broadcaster.
The Catterick Garrison is Britain's largest army base, with about 7,500 regular soldiers, 1,900 recruits, and 2,000 civilian staff.
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — “Dancing with the Stars” host Carrie Ann Inaba and television personality Ross Matthews will co-host this yearás Miss America competition.
The next Miss America will be crowned at Atlantic Cityás Boardwalk Hall in a nationally televised broadcast on Sept. 9.
It will be the first competition since the Miss America Organization made sweeping leadership changes in the wake of an email scandal that led to the ouster of the pageant’s top leadership and eliminated the pageantás swimsuit competition.
A spokesperson said, “OBMI is one of several companies in Bermuda that have recently updated their brands including Skyport, One Communications, and the Bermuda Civil Aviation Authority. The redesigned brands seem to correspond with the 2016 relaunch of the Bermuda Tourism Authority [BTA] designed to attract new audiences to the island.
“OBMI’s new visual identity parallel’s the BTA’s own efforts to adopt a modern, edgy style that will appeal to today’s luxury seeks, and draw in younger demographics while remaining strong amongst the firm’s traditional audiences.
“Although the updated OBMI corporate logo has a distinctively modern feel, it also pays homage to the firm’s rich history retaining the respected blue box exuding the classic confidence. Preserving the box was critical as OBMI considered an updated design. Preserving the box was a critical component ensuring the new identity reinforced the firm’s commitment to authenticity, strength, and heritage.
“We are excited to be able to retain the richness of our heritage while taking this opportunity to present to the community a contemporary new look that will usher in our next 80 years in Bermuda and in the architecture industry,” said Bermuda Managing Director, Colin Campbell.

Kevin Owens' Expected Timetable For WWE Return - Wrestling Inc.
Kevin Owens is expected to return to action in late February or early March after undergoing double knee surgery this past Tuesday, according to Dave Meltzer on the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio. Owens was written off of WWE television on RAW on October 8th after an attack by Bobby Lashley.
Meltzer noted that the damage in Owens' left knee was worse than expected. While it was serious, he didn't have full reconstructive surgery on either knee.
Owens posted the photo below following the surgery, writing that "They had a 2 for 1 sale going at the surgery store!"
This information comes from the most recent (1994-2017) editions of the Journal Citation Reports, published by the Institute for Scientific Information. Information is excerpted from the Business Finance and the Economics lists of journals. The rankings are based on "impact factor," which is the average number of citations received in 2017 by papers published in 2015 and 2016, for example. Also shown is the citation half-life, which gives the age of the article that accounted for the median citation during the year (so journals with prominent older articles have longer half-lives). Note that we have discovered some apparent errors in the calculation of the 1998 and 1999 impact factors for the JFE and show both the original and corrected data below.
The Eigenfactor Score calculation is based on the number of times articles from the journal published in the past five years have been cited in the JCR year, but it also considers which journals have contributed these citations so that highly cited journals will influence the network more than lesser cited journals. References from one article in a journal to another article from the same journal are removed, so that Eigenfactor Scores are not influenced by journal self-citation.
The Normalized Eigenfactor Score is the Eigenfactor score normalized, by rescaling the total number of journals in the JCR each year, so that the average journal has a score of 1. Journals can then be compared and influence measured by their score relative to 1. For example, if a journal has a Normalized Eigenfactor Score of 5, that journal is considered to be 5 times as influential as the average journal in the JCR.

Google Scholar ranks finance and economics journals based on the "h5-index." The h5-index is the h-index for articles published in the last 5 complete years. It is the largest number h such that h articles published in 2013-2017 have at least h citations each. As of June 2018, the JFE ranked first in Finance and is ranked third in the "Business, Economics & Management" category.

To one and all. Weather on Long Island is overcast and warm. TV weather boys say it might rain a little bit in the morning but by the time the Belmont goes off (6:25 p.m.) weather should not be a factor. Still really like Curlin to win it. Can’t see anyone else beating him.
SAN DIEGO, March 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dot VN, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Dot VN" or the "Company") (www.dotVN.com), (OTC Bulletin Board: DTVI), an Internet and Telecommunications Company and the exclusive online global domain name registrar for the Country of Vietnam, announced today that it has begun the sunrise period for registering its new "Industry Domains" exclusively managed by Dot VN. The Vietnam Internet Network Information Center ("VNNIC") has granted to Dot VN the exclusive rights to register twenty-four industry specific sub-domain names ("Industry Domains") to be managed directly by Dot VN. The goal of Dot VN's Industry Domain service is to create the leading resource for Vietnamese businesses and customers, both domestically and worldwide, to find each other. This new service allows a ".VN" domain registrant to register sub domains under the new Industry Domains which includes "banks.vn", "hotels.vn", "fashion.vn", "it.vn", "arts.vn" and "cars.vn". Thus, for example, customers will be able to register and be listed on Dot VN's directory "[bank name].banks.vn" or "[company name].business.vn" based on their particular industry. This service creates a single definitive destination for potential customers to find the goods and services they need in Vietnam. Currently, Dot VN is the only registrar authorized by the VNNIC to offer this additional level of service.
The Industry Domain service is in the sunrise period, which will run until May 31, 2009, during which time registrants who own trademarks can register a domain name containing their owned mark. Beginning June 1, 2009, all sub domains within the Dot VN Industry Domain service will be open for general registration. The Industry Domain service will be offered at 100 USD per sub domain per year. A full list of all 24 Industry Domains is available for review at www.vn/vnnic/vnnic/industrydomains.jsp.
"The Industry Domains that Dot VN exclusively manages are extremely valuable. The sub-domains for these industries will add greater value to clients who intend to expand and generate more visibility and traffic to their websites. Dot VN will manage, market and create a highly integrated network of .VN sub-domains to generate greater revenue for the Company." said Thomas M. Johnson, Dot VN's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Dot VN, Inc. (www.DotVN.com) provides Internet and Telecommunication services for Vietnam. Vietnam Internet Network Information Center ("VNNIC") awarded the Company an "exclusive long term contract" to be the first registrar to market and register its country code Top Level Domain ("ccTLD") of .VN (Vietnam) via the Internet. Dot VN has established agreements with international ISP's (Internet service providers) along with over 73 top domain resellers to commercialize .VN. Also, the Company is currently developing initiatives to offer Internet Data Center services and Wireless applications.
Vietnam Internet Network Information Center ("VNNIC"), (www.vnnic.net.vn) is an agency of the Ministry of Information and Communication ("MIC") of Vietnam. VNNIC was founded on 28th April 2000, and carries out the functions of managing, allocating, supervising and promoting the use of Internet domain names, addresses, autonomous system numbers in Vietnam, providing Internet-related guidance, statistics on Internet usage, and representing Vietnam at Internet related events.

20 From '20/20': Inspiring words from the Apple founder and visionary.
"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes ... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. ... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things. ... They push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
Jobs, who died Oct. 5, 2011, at the age of 56, was one of those who saw things differently. As news of his death spread around the world, people everywhere began sharing some of his most famous quotes. Scroll through to read 20 of the best.

text: "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
text: "It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them."
text: "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."
text: "I'm the only person I know that's lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year. ... It's very character-building."
text: "No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It is life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new."
text: "That's been one of my mantras -- focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end, because once you get there, you can move mountains."
text: "It's more fun to be a pirate than join the Navy."
text: "Picasso had a saying. He said 'Good artists copy, great artists steal.' And we have always been shameless about stealing great ideas. ... I think part of what made the Macintosh great was that the people working on it were musicians and poets and artists and zoologists and historians who also happened to be the best computer scientists in the world."
text: "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure -- these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish."

Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

text: "When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: 'If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.' It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."

The White House hosted a Google Hangout Friday, and President Obama took burning questions live from citizens about issues, policy and his well-being.
The White House and Google billed the event, which featured nine people from across the country, as the "first-ever presidential hangout road trip." All of the questions—culled from the motley group of American citizens with concerns ranging from gun reform to LGBT rights—were great, but one question from Rob in Maine was pretty special.
“Hello, Mr. President, this is about the coolest thing ever,” said Rob, a worker at a solar-power company, in the last question of the hangout. "Out of a million that I’d love to ask you over a beer somewhere, one man to another, one father to another, one American to another … How are you? … Are you happy? … Is everything good with you, man?"
