SPRINGFIELD, Mass., March 23, 2006 – Springfield College freshman midfielder Meghan Wisell (South Burlington, Vt.) scored three goals in the second half as the Pride defeated non-conference foe, Keene State College, 8-5, this evening at Benedum Field in SC's 2006 home-opener.
With the victory, the Pride improves to 2-2 overall on the season as the Owls fall to 0-5. SC led early in this one, building a 2-0 lead in the first ten minutes of action on two unassisted scores from senior forward Holly Carmody (Wayland, Mass.).
Keene State answered back quickly, however, going on a 3-1 run in the next 20 minutes of action as the score was knotted at three goals apiece going into halftime. In the second stanza, the Pride put together a 5-2 run to take the contest by an 8-5 margin. Junior midfielder Rachel Lampros (Boxborough, Mass.) scored the game-winner with 18:40 left in regulation. Lampros also added an assist in the win.
Other scorers for SC included junior midfielder Lisa Thomas (Whitman, Mass.) with her third goal of the season, and freshman forward Heather Dobson (Longmeadow, Mass.), netting her first career collegiate goal. Junior forward Ashley Martell (Billerica, Mass.) and sophomore midfielder Lindsay Bugbee (Granby, Conn.) chipped in with assists in the win.
The Pride will next host MIT on Saturday morning, March 25, in a 10:00 a.m. start. The game will be SC's New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) opener.

|No. 53 UNCW Draws No. 17 USC In NCAA's
WILMINGTON, North Carolina – Colonial Athletic Association men's tennis champion UNCW, ranked 53rd in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) poll, will face No. 17 South Carolina in Durham, N.C., when the NCAA Regionals get under way on May 10.
The Seahawks, 18-4, enter NCAA play as one of the nation's hottest teams with a 10-match winning streak. The Seahawks are making their fourth NCAA Tournament appearance in the last five years, including three as Colonial Athletic Association champions (2009, 2011, 2013).
Pairings for the 64-team bracket were announced Tuesday during a special selection show on www.NCAA.com. First and second-round competition will be conducted May 10-11, with the winner of each site advancing to the championships at the University of Illinois in Urbana. The team championship will be held May 16-21.
"We're really looking forward to it," said sixth-year UNCW Head Coach Mait DuBois. The Seahawks and Gamecocks battle at 10 a.m. at Ambler Tennis Stadium. "Every year our preparation gets a little better and it's just the next step for our program."
UNCW is seeking its first NCAA Tournament victory. The Seahawks made their post-season debut on May 8, 2009, and fell to No. 26 Virginia Tech, 4-2, in Athens. The Seahawks then dropped a 4-1 decision to No. 23 Auburn on May 13, 2011, in Athens before a 4-1 setback to No. 17 Tennessee last May in Chapel Hill.
UNCW has already faced six nationally-ranked teams this season, fashioning a 2-4 record against the group. The Seahawks lost to #12 Florida, #48 South Carolina, #35 N.C. State and #20 Clemson and defeated #53 South Alabama and #68 Old Dominion.
UNCW and USC will be joined in Durham by the host Blue Devils, ranked ninth nationally, and Coastal Carolina. Duke will be the top seed at the site, followed by South Carolina, UNCW and Coastal.
"It's nice to get to play someone you've already seen once," DuBois continued. "We had chances in every match earlier with them and I know where we need to make some strides, so it's a nice matchup for us."
UNCW played six teams that made the NCAA Tournament (Clemson, Coastal Carolina, Florida, Georgia State, N.C. State and South Carolina) during the regular season, compiling a 2-4 record against the group. The results include a narrow 4-3 loss to the Gamecocks on Feb. 20 in Columbia.
The Seahawks climbed as high as No. 37 (Feb. 19) in the ITA rankings. Sophomore Rafael Aita is currently rated 53rd in singles and 51st in doubles with Sam Williams. UNCW's top doubles team of Kosta Blank and Chris Cooprider is rated No. 27.
UNCW is one of four CAA teams to compile a 13-23 career scorecard in the NCAA Tennis Regionals. Six Seahawks bring NCAA Tournament experience to the USC match. Aita, Blank, Cooprider, Zach Hubltiz, Pedro Mol and Kaue Pereira have all competed in the NCAA's.
The teams will play a single-elimination tournament at the NCAA's 16 first- and second-round sites (four teams at each site) and the final site (16-team bracket) to determine the national champion. The matches will be regulation dual matches with three eight-game, pro-set doubles played for one team point, followed by six singles matches, each valued at one team point, played best of three sets. Regular scoring will be used and a 12-point tiebreaker will be played at eight games all in doubles and at six games all in singles.

Nova Scotia Honey Orange Sponge Cake
From Cooking Jewish: 532 Great Recipes from the Rabinowitz Family (Workman) by Judy Bart Kancigor
Preorder on amazon
My mother got this recipe from her friend Corinne in Nova Scotia. I remember visiting with them the summer before I turned fourteen, when I absolutely refused to go to sleep-away camp anymore. I traveled with my parents as they sang their way through the Catskills and Berkshires and then ferried up to Nova Scotia. The most memorable part of the trip for me was the arrival of Princess Margaret, who almost killed herself stepping out of her shoe as she exited the helicopter. For my mother, the most impressive moment was when Corinne sent her mother out into the yard to dig up potatoes for our dinner.
The Best Honey Cake Yet
from "The Essential Book of Jewish Festival Cooking" by Phyllis Glazer and Miriyam Glazer"
Makes one 12-inch loaf or two 9-inch loaves
If there is one food on everyone's Rosh Hashanah menu, it's honey cake. One of the Seven Species of the Bible, honey symbolizes the wish for a sweet New Year. "Inspired by the Romanian-Jewish honey cake – which is light rather than dark – this version is light as a feather and really delicious. It's certainly the best honey cake we've ever tasted," write Phyllis and Miriyam Glazer.
1 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/4 cups honey
6 large eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of ground cardamom
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-inch loaf pan or two 9-inch loaf pans. Line bottom and sides with parchment paper to facilitate removal after baking. Set aside.
Place chopped nuts in a baking pan and roast in oven for 10 minutes, shaking pan occasionally. Remove from oven and let cool.
Lower heat to 300°F.
In bowl of a standing electric mixer, beat oil, honey, egg yolks, and spices. Sift flour and baking powder and blend into honey mixture until smooth.
In separate bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add sugar gradually, continuing to beat until egg whites are stiff. Fold a small amount of egg whites into honey mixture, then fold in the rest gradually, mixing gently each time until incorporated Stir in nuts.
Spiced Pear and Almond Cake
From "Jewish Holiday Feasts" by Louis Fiszer and Jeannette Ferrary
4 cups cored and coarsely chopped ripe pears (5-6 pears)
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
Grated zest of 1 lemon
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped blanched almonds
Confectioners' sugar
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease a 10-inch round cake pan.
Combine pears and sugar in medium bowl and let stand 15 minutes.
Combine oil with eggs and add to pears.
In another bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon zest, baking soda and salt. Stir into pear mixture. Add vanilla and almonds.
Pour into prepared pan and bake until cake tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool on a rack about 20 minutes before turning out. Invert onto a serving platter and dust with confectioners' sugar.
Serves 12
Sweet Ravioli with Bitter Honey
from Sweet Myrtle and Bitter Honey: The Mediterranean Flavors of Sardinia
(Rizzoli International) by Efisio Farris with Jim Eber.
Makes 12 to 16 pastries
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 whole egg and 2 egg yolks, divided
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups fresh sheep's milk ricotta cheese (or other creamy ricotta cheese, about 3/4 pound)
1/2 cup sugar
Zest of 1 lemon, finely grated
Zest of 1 orange, finely grated
1/2 cup bitter honey
Vegetable oil for frying
Powdered sugar for dusting
On a clean workspace, mound the flour with a well in the center. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the flour. Add the whole egg and 3/4 cup warm water into the well and gradually mix into the flour with your Hands. When the mixture begins to come together, add the olive oil and knead to fully incorporate. Cover dough with a cloth and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta, sugar, egg yolks, and zests.
On a lightly floured workspace, roll out the dough to a rectable about 1/4 inch thick. Using a sharp paring knife or a large cookie cutter, cut into 3-inch-diamter rounds. Reroll the scraps and cut again as necessary. You should end up with between 24 and 32 rounds.
Set aside half of the rounds. With the remaining rounds, lightly mound about 2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture into the center of each. Top with the other dough rounds and lightly press edgees together, crimping edges with a fork to seal. Lightly dust the ravioli with flour to prevent sticking and set aside.
In a saucepan over low heat, warm the bitter honey.

Priyanka Chopra looks like a pop star when she struts into Hollywood's Chalice Studios, entourage in tow. Her sultry smile, body-hugging dress and towering heels command attention.
She has the image, sure. But not the name. At least not outside of India.
Yet Chopra, 30, is here to listen to her debut album helmed by Grammy Award-winning producer-songwriter RedOne (a.k.a. Nadir Khayat), the same guy who catapulted Lady Gaga into superstardom.

- Enable dynamic dial plans and routing by using the DIALPLAN module DROUTING module
- Traverse NAT using STUN and TURN
- Bill your costumers or simply check your expenses by generating CDRs (Call Detail Records)
- Monitor your SIP infrastructure to keep it running smoothly
In Detail
SIP is the most important VoIP protocol and OpenSIPS is clearly the open source leader in VoIP platforms based on pure SIP. The whole telecommunication industry is changing to an IP environment, and telephony in the way we know today will disappear in less than ten years. SIP is the protocol leading this disruptive revolution and it is one of the main protocols on next-generation networks. While a VoIP provider is not the only kind of SIP infrastructure created using OpenSIPS, it is certainly one of the most difficult to implement.
This book will give you a competitive edge by helping you to create a SIP infrastructure capable of handling tens of thousands of subscribers. You can extend the examples given in this book easily to other applications such as a SIP router, load balancing, IP PBX, and Hosted PBX as well. This book is an update of the title Building Telephony Systems with OpenSER.
The book starts with the simplest configuration and evolves chapter by chapter teaching you how to add new features and modules. It will first teach you the basic concepts of SIP and SIP routing. Then, you will start applying the theory by installing OpenSIPS and creating the configuration file. You will learn about features such as authentication, PSTN connectivity, user portals, media server integration, billing, NAT traversal, and monitoring. The book uses a fictional VoIP provider to explain OpenSIPS. The idea is to have a simple but complete running VoIP provider by the end of the book.
A practical guide to building an efficient SIP telephony system
This is a practical, hands-on book based around a fictitious case study VoIP Provider that you will build on a development server using OpenSIPS 1.6. The case study grows chapter by chapter, from installing your local development server, right up to the finished VoIP provider.
Who this book is for
This book is for readers who want to understand how to build a SIP provider from scratch using OpenSIPS. It is suitable for VoIP providers, large enterprises, and universities.
Telephony and Linux experience will be helpful but is not essential. Readers need not have prior knowledge of OpenSIPS. This book will also help readers who were using OpenSER but are now confused with the new OpenSIPS.

Judges hear whole-life tariff pleas
3:08am Wednesday 10th October 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
Leading judges are to hear challenges by three killers and a rapist against the length of their sentences.
Among the cases under review by a panel of five Court of Appeal judges, headed by Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge, are those of two murderers who have been ordered to serve the rest of their lives behind bars.
As well as the appeals by David Oakes and Danilo Restivo against "whole-life" orders, the court will be dealing with a challenge by rapist Michael Roberts, known as the "Bermondsey Beast", who has been told he will never be released from jail.
In addition to the cases involving whole-life tariffs, the judges will hear an appeal by Kiaran Stapleton - who labelled himself "Psycho" when he appeared in court for shooting a stranger in the head at point blank range. Stapleton was jailed for life in July with a minimum term of 30 years over the death of Indian student Anuj Bidve, 23, in Salford, Greater Manchester.
Rapist Roberts, who terrorised elderly women in a London suburb for more than a decade, was jailed in January and told he will live out his days behind bars.
Roberts, 45, joined a small group of "life means life" prisoners after raping three victims - one aged 83 - and viciously attacking a fourth in Bermondsey, south London. He evaded justice for 15 years but was captured after a cold case review by Scotland Yard.
Hair fetishist Restivo was given a whole life tariff in June 2011 for the "depraved" and "callous" murder and mutilation of a mother-of-two in Bournemouth.
The 39-year-old Italian national was found guilty by a jury at Winchester Crown Court of the 2002 murder of neighbour Heather Barnett, 48.
Oakes, who "sadistically tortured" his former partner before shooting her and their two-year-old daughter, was told at Chelmsford Crown Court in May that he will never be released from prison after a jury found him guilty.
The 50-year-old, of Canney Road, Steeple, Essex, went to Christine Chambers's house in Braintree where he killed her and daughter Shania with a shotgun.

GuitarControl.com released a new video guitar lesson from master instructor Jon MacLennan. In this guitar lesson, now available on YouTube.com, Jon MacLennan teaches part 3 of how to play triads on guitar.
(PRWEB) June 27, 2014
A Triad is a three note chord. A Major Triad consists of the Root Note, the note that a chord derives its name from, the Third (Major Third) and Fifth (Perfect Fifth) notes of the Major Scale. A Minor Triad consists of Root Note, Flat Third (Minor Third), and Fifth (Perfect Fifth). When a Triad is composed in Root Position the notes are arranged in the order of 1-3-5 for Major and 1-flat 3-5 for Minor. Triads can be inverted so that the Root Note is not the lowest note. The First Inversion is where the Root Note is moved to the highest pitch making the order 3-5-1 for a Major Triad and flat 3-5-1 for a Minor Triad. The Second Inversion is where the Root Note and Third Note are both moved about the Fifth making the order 5-1-3 for a Major Triad and 5-1-flat 3 for a Minor Triad. There are also Triad formulas for Augmented and Diminished as well. MacLennan demonstrates triad voicings based in the key of A using the 5th, 4th and 3rd strings and using the shapes of common open chords such as A and E major. Guitar TABs are available for this easy beginner guitar lesson at GuitarControl.com.

A new leader has been chosen to lead Monmouth University, announced the school's Board of Trustees on Wednesday.
Dr. Paul R. Brown, who currently heads the College of Business and Economics at Lehigh University, has been appointed president of the West Long Branch university, according to a university release.
Brown will take over from retiring President Paul G. Gaffney II on Aug. 1. He will be the 8th president of the school, according to the release.
The school's Board of Trustees decided on Brown at their Feb. 26 meeting, the release says.
"Dr. Brown was our first and unanimous choice to be the new president of Monmouth University," Robert B. Sculthorpe, chair of the board, said in the release. "He is an outstanding leader with the qualifications to help Monmouth University continue to prosper as a strong, vibrant institution."
Brown, in the release, said he was excited to begin his tenure.
"The University's enthusiasm and commitment to making its mark on the higher education landscape is palpable across Monmouth's Board of Trustees, faculty and staff,'' Brown said in the release. "Students are at the heart of Monmouth, and it is my honor to serve them, as well as the larger university community, in an effort to reach new heights of excellence. I could not be more thrilled with this opportunity."
Brown took over as Dean of the College of Business and Economics at the Bethlehem, Penn., school in 2007, where he managed historically high levels of enrollment in both undergraduate and graduate programs as well as recruited and hired faculty at an unprecedented pace, according to the release.
He also instituted a 10-year strategic plan that was unanimously endorsed by the faculty, setting the direction of college for the next decade, and raised more than $40 million in donations, according to the release.
Prior to joining Lehigh, Brown spent more than 20 years at New York University's Stern School of Business where he held a variety of senior academic and administrative positions at both the school and university level.
He served as the associate dean of executive MBA Programs, and academic director of TRIUM, NYU Stern's global executive MBA program in alliance with the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and HEC School of Management, Paris. He also served as chair of the Department of Accounting, Taxation and Business Law at NYU Stern, according to the release.
Brown is a professor of accounting, co-author of the first six editions of "Financial Reporting, Financial Statement Analysis, and Valuation: A Strategic Perspective," a widely used textbook in undergraduate, MBA and executive education programs. He is also the author of the eBook, "Foundations of Financial Statement Analysis," which is used in both traditional teaching and mixed-mode distance learning settings, the release says.
Brown received a Bachelor's degree from Franklin and Marshall College and a Doctor of Philosophy as well as his Masters of Professional Accountancy degrees from the University of Texas at Austin, the release says.
Brown and his wife, Joan G. Fishman, and daughter, Emma, will move to Doherty House, the presidential residence, this summer, the release says.
Currently, Joan is the Board Vice-President of the Cancer Support Community of the Greater Lehigh Valley. This fall Emma will begin her university studies at Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, according to the release.

The Kitchener Rangers of the OHL have taken legal action against a University of Michigan student newspaper and one of its reporters for publishing a story that alleged the team offered defenceman Jacob Trouba $200,000 to play for it.
A story that appeared in The Michigan Daily last week alleged that the Rangers tried to coax Trouba, a first-round draft pick of the Winnipeg Jets last month, out of a deal to play for the Michigan Wolverines.
The Rangers have now sued the newspaper and reporter Matt Slovin, according to the Waterloo Region Record.
All the rest is right here

Alan Hall, Contributor
I cover investing, entrepreneurial growth and philanthropy.
There has never been a greater need or time for women to start businesses. We need their abilities, experiences and skills more than ever in the very competitive world of commerce. Today I honor and pay tribute to bright women of all ages who have and will undertake a significant risk to launch a flourishing enterprise. It's been my great privilege to be associated with many talented female business founders and they deserve my praise and encouragement. All are remarkable women.
As an angel investor and venture capitalist, it is my pleasure to engage with a growing number of strong woman leaders. What I admire most about these tremendous executives is their empathy for employees, vendors and customers. They seem to have a profound ability to understand and feel what's in the hearts and minds of people. As such, they tend to be superb communicators and advisors. In addition, I value their integrity, industry, insight, kind hearts, conviction and superb people skills. They are deep thinkers. They are visionary. They conceive brilliant strategies and can execute them adroitly.
In many ways, they surpass and out hustle their male peers. They intuitively manage resources, processes and priorities extremely well. Lastly, and most importantly, they understand the marketplace and its customers. Perhaps it's an inherent ability, or a learned skill. Whatever the case, I recognize that women are cognizant of nearly any business issue including their thoughts on the needs, feelings, aspirations and desires of consumers.
Recently, I asked a few high achievers to share with me the lessons they have learned as leaders of thriving businesses. Here are their comments.
Amy Rees Anderson is the award winning CEO of MediConnect Global, a leader in medical record retrieval and management and one of the largest health information exchanges in the country. Here's her advice:
Cheryl Snapp Conner is the founder of Snapp Conner PR, a highly successful public relations company.
Alison Prince is the President and founder of PickYourPlum.com; a fast growing business that caters to the women.
Blessing lives through positive work experiences, opportunities, and growth have been key ingredients of our success. Pick Your Plum has created a culture that encourages happiness and hard work. It has become a part of our daily life and helps our 'Plum' team be on the same page.
Alison Wistner is a Director of Mercato Partners, a private equity fund investing in high growth technology and consumer companies.
Finally, Kathy Caprino, M.A. is Founder/President of Ellia Communications, Inc. — a leading career and executive coaching and training firm. Kathy is a career coach, writer, Forbes contributor and speaker on women's careers, and the author of Breakdown, Breakthrough. From Kathy:
I thank each of these women for sharing their lessons. Our business world includes many more like them, and it needs many more. Who are the women entrepreneurs you admire, and what are the traits they exemplify? I welcome your thoughts.

Thanks so much, Alan, for your inspiring post and for highlighting women entrepreneurs. I'm honored to be included here. This is a collection of powerful tips and strategies to help women access (internally and externally) what it takes to build the enterprise they dream of and to make the impact that they long to. Appreciate the support.
Awesome! I am in the process of starting a new career. Thank you so much for the motivating, uplifting and inspiring post! Good things come to those who wait, after reading this, greater things come to those who get off there laurels and go get it!!
This is fabulous! I am excited to learn from these other women who have made a difference and built amazing businesses. Thank you Alan!
Hi Alan
Great Article, and I am 100% agree with you, the way I see my wife how she able to balancing her demanding 9-5 job, taking care my two little one, and at the same time, support my new startup is totally amaze me, She is better entrepreneur then me.
As a Pick Your Plum team member I have been thrilled to see the power of Staying Positive in action. People seem genuinely shocked that a business treats them as a friend would. But we do, and it makes us different in a very noticeably good way.
We love our jobs. Who wouldn't love a job that creates smiles!

Voters in 12 suburban Milwaukee communities overwhelmingly showed support for a smaller, part-time Milwaukee County Board in Tuesday's election.
The two-part, non-binding referendum first asked voters if the size of the County Board should be reduced from 18 to nine members; that was supported by 84 percent of voters. Eighty-two percent of voters also supported making the position of County Supervisor part-time.
The referendum questions appeared on the ballot in Bayside, Brown Deer, Cudahy, Fox Point, Franklin, Greendale, Greenfield, Hales Corners, River Hills, Shorewood, West Milwaukee and Whitefish Bay.
The proposal to reduce the size and salary of the County Board was advocated by County Supervisor Joseph Rice of Whitefish Bay. The board's redistricting plan eliminated his seat, and divided Whitefish Bay into two supervisory districts — District 13, that also represents portions of central and west Milwaukee, and District 3, which represents Shorewood and the east side of Milwaukee. The change split Whitefish Bay's suburban representation on the board into two districts with more city representation and more liberal constituencies.
Incumbent District 13 Supervisor Willie Johnson Jr. survived a challenge from Bria Grant in Tuesday's election, and District 3 Supervisor Gerry Broderick retained his seat in an uncontested election.
Rice issued a statement Wednesday saying the results of the referenda illustrate a desire to reform the County Board.
"Despite a political environment often characterized by division and disagreement, the results of these referenda demonstrate that voters can agree on one thing — reform of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors is overdue," Rice said.
In December, the County Board refused to place the questions on a county-wide referendum. Rice thanked municipal government leaders for placing the ballot questions before the voters on Tuesday.
"Despite the board's refusal to allow voters to be heard throughout the county, these referenda results send a loud and clear message that reform is favored," said Rice.
"The future County Board should carefully consider this clear mandate and take steps to reform its governance process and procedures. Continuing to ignore the will of the electorate can serve only to reinforce the public sentiment that the County Board is not listening."

RALEIGH — Former state insurance commissioner John Randolph Ingram, a well-known and often controversial figure in North Carolina politics throughout the 1970s and 1980s, died of heart failure Sunday evening at his home in Myrtle Beach.
Ingram, 83, served 12 years in the commissioners office after a successful 1972 campaign urging reform of the insurance industry. It was a theme he returned to often during his more than two decades in politics and public life, which included a losing campaign against U.S. Sen. Jesse Helms.
No one campaigned stronger as a populist than John, said Rufus Edmisten, who was state attorney general during Ingrams time in government.
Its sad news. He was one of the last true characters in state politics.
Ingram was born on June 12, 1929, in Greensboro and grew up in Asheboro. His father, two-term state Sen. Henry L. Ingram, died when he was 13.
He attended UNC-Chapel Hill, earning Phi Beta Kappa honors as an undergraduate and a 1954 law degree. From 1955 to 1958, Ingram served as a member of the U.S. Armys Judge Advocate General Corps.
He practiced law in Asheboro for more than a decade before running successfully as a Democrat for the state House in 1970, representing what was previously considered a Republican stronghold.
His signature issue insurance reform was born during that campaign. He wanted to lower insurance rates, particularly for young and high-risk drivers.
Politics, as I say, was difficult in that district, and so it looked like to me that something needed to be done in insurance, he told The News and Observer during a 1973 interview. It just sort of became a cause with me.
During his two-year legislative term, Ingram authored bills giving 18 year olds the right to vote and establishing a bond referendum for the N.C. Zoo.
As insurance commissioner, Ingram was frustrated in his efforts to enact reform. His administration lost 32 of 33 major court cases, and he was criticized for spending too little time at work in the state capital.
Other controversies surrounded his time in office. Some involved sudden and frequent dismissals of employees, conflicts with the General Assembly and allegations that he was unduly preoccupied with the development of his familys condominium project in Myrtle Beach.
He also gained a reputation for odd behavior, including holding important meetings in parking lots to avoid purported eavesdroppers and casually throwing out important state documents. Ingram defended his actions, maintaining that such allegations were politically motivated.
In 1978, Ingram became the Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate, losing to incumbent Helms. Two years later, he underwent open-heart surgery at Duke University Medical Center.
Ingram ran unsuccessfully in the Democratic primary for governor in 1984, as his final term as insurance commissioner was coming to an end. He also ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic nomination to U.S. Senate in 1986 and 1990.
Ingram is survived by his wife, Virginia Brown Ingram, three daughters and a son.
Funeral services are set for 10 a.m. Wednesday at First Presbyterian Church in Myrtle Beach. Burial will be in Asheboros Oaklawn Cemetery.

Ok! I will be flying to northern CA weather permitting this saturday and Id be happy to take some rescued animals. Yes I do know a bit about rabbits (used to have one) and transporting these delicate creatures. In order for me to transport, you MUST have the rabbit in an appropriately sized, hard shell crate that I can hand off to the receiving party as trying to do a transfer out of a crate at an airport would also be not safe for a rabbit in my opinion. If the crate is too large, the rabbit could be seriously injured if it jumps around in the crate, or if there is any turbulence. If the crate is too large, or you do not have one for the trip, I would not be able to safely take the bunny. Hard shell plastic/ vinyl needed as I know how effectively they can nibble! A good guide on appropriate crate sizing can be found here:
My intention, weather permitting, is to leave Saturday morning May 11 from long beach with a meeting time of around 8:45am. Will likely be flying with other separately crated rescued animals, and if the loading goes on time, should be in the Livermore airport somewhere between 11:30 and 1:30 pm. Let me know if this works and you can supply your bunny's crate.

What to Do About a Bad Reference
Three tips for a very common concern among job seekers.
One of the most common questions I receive over at Ask a Manager is what to do about a previous boss who is likely to give you a bad reference.
First, yes, it's legal for an employer to give a negative reference as long as it's factually accurate. It's true that some companies have policies that they will only confirm dates of employment and job duties and will not comment on the employee's performance—but (a) these policies are simply policies, not the law, and (b) good reference-checkers know how to get around them, by asking the candidate to arrange a direct call with the candidate's former manager.
So, what do you do if you think a previous boss is likely to give you a bad reference? Simply not listing that person as a reference isn't enough; reference-checkers can call anyone you've worked for, or who might know you, even if they aren't on the list you provide. In fact, smart reference-checkers will make a point of calling people not on your list, because presumably you've only listed the people most likely to present you in the best light.
But don't panic. Here's what you can do:
You can also offer up former coworkers, clients, and others who can speak to your work, and even old copies of performance reviews if you have them. Sometimes the mere offer of these things will provide the reassurance employers are looking for.

By John Toole
---- — LONDONDERRY — A South Elementary School first-grader is recovering after a neighbor's dog bit her on the forehead Easter Sunday.
Sarah Stewart, 6, was home from school for at least two days and is scheduled to see a plastic surgeon this week.
Oliver, a mixed breed dog, was quarantined at the police station.
"I'm good," Sarah said while sitting on steps outside her family's townhouse Monday afternoon. "Better than (Sunday)."
Large bandages covered part of her forehead and ear.
"We're lucky it didn't get her throat or eye," father Greg Stewart said.
The incident happened about 5 p.m. in the Winterwood Drive neighborhood.
Sarah was playing with bubbles at Lisa and John Palmieri's house when she tripped and landed on Oliver, part pit bull and part Labrador retriever.
"I (tripped) over his leash," Sarah said. "He started attacking me."
Lisa Palmieri was holding Oliver's leash at the time.
Greg Stewart said he was watching golf on TV when he heard Sarah scream and ran to her.
"She was ripped," he said. "There was a huge chunk of skin off her forehead."
No charges have been filed and police are investigating, Lt. Tim Jones said.
"I'm not the kind of person to sue and I don't want to hurt people," Greg Stewart said. "I just want that dog out of here."
Sarah's mother, Debbie, described the Palmieris as "very nice people."
Lisa Palmieri was upset, too.
"It's devastating," she said. "I feel bad for their family and I feel bad for Oliver."
Oliver's vaccinations are current, Palmieri said. Police were checking to make sure so Sarah won't have to be treated with shots of her own.
Residents of the neighborhood are close. They share cookouts and the kids play together. There was an Easter egg hunt for the neighborhood kids.
"This is sad for everyone, for both families," neighbor Denise Ferreira said. "Everybody plays together. Everybody hangs out at each other's home."
Oliver, 4, was shaking and panting at the police station Monday. Police said he wagged his tail when fed.
But the dog made Greg Stewart uncomfortable. He and Debbie have four children, ages 19 months to 8 years.
"Pit bull covers it all," he said. "There are a lot of kids here. It's not right. I saw this coming, I just didn't know when."
Ferreira thought the incident unfortunate for everyone.
"She fell on top of him," she said. "It was just the dog's reaction."

Herbes de Provence is a fragrant mixture of dried herbs typical of southern French cooking. Exact recipes vary, but thyme, savory, rosemary and an aniseed-scented herb such as fennel or tarragon are typical ingredients. Marjoram or basil may also be included in the mixture. The Mediterranean flavour of these herbs is essential to many meat, poultry, game and vegetable dishes, particularly tomato-based and grilled ones.
Type the ingredients you want to use, then click Go. For better results you can use quotation marks around phrases (e.g. "chicken breast"). Alternatively you can search by chef, programme, cuisine, diet, or dish (e.g. Lasagne).

After watching the Twins today in Cleveland, several impressions come to the forefront.
First, the pitching seems to be no better than last year, and quite possibly even worse. The starter, Nolasco, stunk it up with 5 runs in only 4 innings, and could not seem to locate his pitches to save his life. The bullpen quickly coughed up two more runs, a performance that could put a game essentially out of reach by the halfway mark.
The defense was also laughable, with somebody
MLBTR has an item stating that the Phillies would be willing to trade Jimmy Rollins. In the article, it's stated:
"Rollins, 35, struggled at the plate in 2013, batting .252/.318/.348..."
Meanwhile our resident starter pleased some fans with his progress, posting .221/.281/.330.
I don't particularly advocate trading for Rollins, as I assume the Phils want prospects the Twins won't want to part with and the Twins won't want to invest $11M a year in
I didn't know what Ricky Nolasco looked like until he signed with the Twins and the same photo kept showing up. I had a sense of deja vu but couldn't name it until today:
When the Twins announced their players being sent to the Arizona Fall League (AFL), John Bonnes made an off-hand comment about a Twins Daily road trip. Something of that magnitude might be a little fanciful, but I'm thinking about going and he and I agreed maybe a clearinghouse would be useful for those who plan to go, or are considering it.
The Twins players will be on the Glendale Desert Dogs. All the AFL games are in the Phoenix area. Our guys have games from
In response to a forum reply that I felt crossed a boundary, where the writer questioned the courage of Andrew Albers, instead of just deleting the post I decided to try a bit of "see how you like it". Since it stirred up some controversy, I am posting here the private message I later sent:
Brock and I were both basically reacting to one sentence:
Albers could have at least had the balls to fight for it if he really wanted it.

It's that time again. Jesse is opening up the mailbag to answer your consumer questions:
I got e-mails from two angry Seahawk fans Jeff Wilber and Cal Pfahl. It wasn't how the team played in the first half. These fans were among others who were ticketed for parking next to this fence on Utah Street South. There aren't any "no parking" signs. I asked Seattle parking enforcement supervisor Mary Mitchell what the deal is.
"It would be impossible for the Department of Transportation to put up signs for every parking violation," she said.
It turns out, if there is no sidewalk, you must leave 3 feet from a fence or wall, even though there are no signs. Officers still have to enforce the law.
An update on Pastor Tony Morris. He's the Renton pastor who borrowed more than a million dollars from his members and other churches, and never repaid them.
Earlier this year his stuff was hauled off because he lost a $200,000 judgment to a former church member.
Since Morris didn't pay, the court ruled that everything in his house could be seized and sold.
When the moving trucks started loading, Morris filed bankruptcy. Everything was locked up and put on hold.
Now a King County judge signed off on the sale, and the pastor's household goods and jewelry will auctioned off on November 18.
Finally, your name could be among the half a million others that were just reported to the Department of Revenue Unclaimed Property Division last week.
The problem is they only have two people to log all of the paperwork. So it's going to take until about February for folks to find out if they have money coming their way. The state tells us to keep checking their Web site www.claimyourcash.org, It's updated every day.

Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto cookie sheets.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Decorate with your favorite frostings or sprinkles if you like.

Whipped these up in no time! The brown sugar made them much tastier and chewier than a sugar cookie made with white sugar. Like others, I rolled the dough between parchment paper to make it easier on myself... cut the cookies there and simply lifted the parchment paper onto the cookie sheet. Easier cleanup, and no mushed shapes! The cookies held their shapes well during cooking, even the ones I'd used the melon baller on. I highly recommend this recipe.
good cookies, tasty, easy to roll out and cut. Would make again.
I was very please with this recipe. They turned out really tasty. I added a tsp of almond extract for a little more flavor. My son loved how fast he got to decorate them. No chilling time was very helpful with little ones. Tastes a little like chocolate chip cookies, minus the chocolate chips. Only downside is used them with a leaf cookie cutter and they puff up a lot so they looked more like clouds. But will defenitly use the recipe again! Thanks!!

No Shutdown Doesn't Mean No Problems
Why aren't Republicans worried they'll get in trouble for not governing?
The House GOP leadership reportedly feels confident that they've defused the fanatical right's push for a government shutdown fight over defunding Obamacare. The leaders apparently think that shutting down the government is, as a general matter, a bad idea because it tends to irritate voters who want those elected to govern to actually, you know, govern.
This prompts Greg Sargent to wonder why the GOP doesn't get in more trouble for its general refusal to govern. The short answer, I think, is that Republicans think voters aren't paying attention.
Sargent cites a new report from NRO's Robert Costa outlining the House GOP leaders' plans to avoid a shutdown and continue the battle to derail Obamacare. The latest idea: Demand an Obamacare delay in exchange for raising the debt ceiling (a legislative version of "delay Obamacare or the economy gets it"). Costa quotes veteran GOP pollster David Winston as saying that the GOP wants to avoid a shutdown because people expect them to govern.
[ See a collection of political cartoons on Obamacare.]
Sargent writes:
The idea appear[s] to be that staging a shutdown to force the destruction of Obamacare — rather than offering an alternative — constitutes a failure to govern. But if that is so, why is not doing everything Republicans can to sabotage the law short of pushing for a shutdown, while offering no alternative, also a failure to govern?
I would think the answer is fairly obvious: A government shutdown is a high-profile and very unusual event and one that generally involves a fairly clear villain. If there's a shutdown, it's because one side is being obstinate – to wit, if House Republicans refuse to pass a bill to keep the government open without simultaneously defunding an existing law, they'll be responsible for it regardless of how many times they claim that it's Obama's fault because he refuses to go along with their demands.
[ See a collection of political cartoons on the Republican Party.]
On the other hand, everything else the GOP is doing to make sure the law doesn't work – from refusing to work on bills which would correct its faults to refusing to accept federal funding for a Medicaid expansion ( Jonathan Chait has a great rundown of these tactics) – is not as eye-catching as a shutdown and falls into a different media narrative, one of generalized congressional gridlock. If Congress can't pass a bill which would, to take an example from Chait, fix the law so it doesn't force many church health insurance plans to disband, it's easy to ascribe it to generalized gridlock (a pox on both their houses!) rather than GOP obstinacy in the larger context of a refusal to cooperate with the very routine legislative work of trying to fix a law's problems.
Political junkies understand what the GOP is up to. But the party is gambling that medium- and low-information voters who couldn't help but notice a shutdown won't bother themselves with the ins and outs of daily governance (or lack thereof).
It seems a safe bet in the short term, but we'll see whether voters figure it out as they actually start to tune in and get ready to vote next year.

Great piece, R.J. I appreciate the in-depth exploration of these artists and their work. It still amazes me that so many artists can keep a large ensemble together, even occasionally.
Nicholas Urie will be The Jazz Session on August 24, and Dave Rivello will be on later this year.
I actually filled in on soprano saxophone in Rivello's band once. It was the longest night of my life. Not only was I out of practice, but his music is not easy to sight-read. If it hadn't been for the guy next to me constantly prodding me, I think I would have just passed out midway through the second tune!
Again, thanks for the piece.
I guess I spent too much time in graduate school, where the obsession with gender politics is rampant, such that it's permanently affected the manner in which I perceive reality. I've read several discussions about the huge gender disparity among jazz fans (incl. here at AAJ); so, has anyone besides me noticed that the audience in that picture of Duke Ellington is nothing but men? Black men, white men, but not one woman?...
That was a long time ago, Victor. While total equity has yet to be reached, the number of significant female artists, in the case of this piece the influence of Maria Schneider on a generation of younger large ensemble folks, can't be discounted. I'm currently at my third festival in Norway this year, and the encouraging thing is the parity in the audience - age-wise and gender-wise - to be found here.
One moment, you will be redirected shortly.

Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) is a scheme to transmit digital information across an analog channel. Binary data bits are grouped into blocks of a fixed size, and each block is represented by a unique carrier frequency, called a symbol, to be sent across the channel. 1 This requires having a unique symbol for each possible combination of data bits in a block. In this laboratory exercise each symbol represents a two-bit block; therefore, there will be four different symbols.
The carrier frequency is kept constant over some number of samples known as the symbol period (). The symbol rate, defined as , is a fraction of the board's sampling rate, . For our sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and a symbol period of 32, the symbol rate is 44.1k/32 symbols per second.
