PISCATAWAY, N.J. (October 21, 2012) – Rutgers women's soccer will travel to Connecticut on Thursday, Oct. 25 for the first round of the BIG EAST Tournament. The match will kickoff at 7 p.m. at Joseph Morrone Stadium, with the winner taking on No. 1 seed Marquette.
Fans can watch the game for a fee via UConn All-Access here: http://www.uconnhuskies.com/allaccess/. Audio will also be available through http://www.whus.org/.
This marks the 13th-straight season that RU has earned a berth in the BIG EAST Tournament. The streak - all under head coach Glenn Crooks - marks the longest active among conference members.
Besting instate rival Seton Hall, 2-0, last Friday night, the Scarlet Knights (12-6-1, 5-5-1) clinched the fifth seed in the National Division. With one second remaining in the second overtime, Connecticut's (8-7-2, 4-5-1) Linda Ruutu scored to give the Huskies a 3-2 win over Providence, clinching the fourth seed in the American Division.
RU has put together a lethal offense over the last four matches, as seven different Scarlet Knights have scored 10 goals. Rutgers is 4-0-1 over their last five matches, shutting out four opponents.
Redshirt junior forward Jonelle Filigno (Mississauga, ON, Canada) paces RU with 32 points on 14 goals and four assists in 2012. The forward ranks first in the BIG EAST in game-winning goals (seven), as well as second in goals and points.
Senior goalkeeper Emmy Simpkins (Concord, N.C.) maintains a 0.69 goals against average, posting 5.4 shutouts this season. The netminder ranks fifth in the league in GAA and save percentage (.836).
The Huskies own a 14-2-4 all-time record against the Scarlet Knights, although RU won the last meeting 2-0 on Oct. 1, 2010. Prior to that, the two squads had played to a draw from 2005-07 - including twice in the BIG EAST Quarterfinals.
UConn own a 1-3-1 mark over its last five games. Danielle Schulmann leads Connecticut with 25 points on nine goals and seven assists. Four Huskies total double-digit points in 2012.
Time between the pipes has been split between Allison Saucier, Leigh-Ann Jaggon and Jessica Montrose. Montrose went in against Notre Dame and has earned the start over the last four matches. The freshman owns a 1.48 GAA with 18 saves in five appearances.
Head coach Len Tsantiris, in his 32nd year, has led UConn to 28 NCAA Tournaments, compiling a 499-180-53 overall record.

The cable television program Unity in Diversity can be viewed on Charter CommunityVision channel 21 Mondays at 12:30 pm and Wednesdays at 5:30 pm. The program features interviews with prominent pastors, rabbis, imams and other spiritual leaders of a variety of local faith communities.
Several hundred members and invited guests attended a garden party commemorating the 30th anniversary of Grace Family Church, at the church's scenic property at 4 Covered Bridge Road. Those attending the party viewed with interest some recently prepared architectural drawings indicating plans for the group's new church planned for the area near the intersection of Covered Bridge Road and Hawleyville Road (Route 25). A sign posted on a slope alongside southbound Hawleyville Road indicates the site to passing motorists. The church currently is located at 174 Mt Pleasant Road (Route 6), which is about one mile away from 4 Covered Bridge Road.
It was a bittersweet service at Newtown Congregational Church on June 15, when the Reverend Allysa De Wolf took to the pulpit to offer the morning's sermon. Ordained just one week earlier, Rev De Wolf was offering her first sermon as an ordained minister as well as her final while serving at NCC.
A dedication and blessing ceremony was conducted Saturday, June 7, for St Rose of Lima's latest building, the Holy Innocents Faith Formation Center. The Most Reverend Frank J. Caggiano, bishop of the Diocese of Bridgeport, presided over the blessing and dedication ceremony. Bishop Caggiano noted that the first gathering in the building celebrated light, life, faith, hope, joy, "and the promise the Lord gives us that the light will always come through the darkness."
Family, friends, clergy and dozens of members of Newtown Congregational Church filled the West Street sanctuary Sunday afternoon, June 8, to celebrate the ordination for Alyssa De Wolf into the ministry of the United Church of Christ (UCC). Rev De Wolf came to Newtown Congregational Church (NCC) in 2011, and is a graduate of Yale School of Divinity, where she received her master of divinity in 2013. While in care at NCC, she served as minister of Christian nurture and mission, and served as a leader of the church youth group. She has accepted a position as pastor of the First Congregational Church in Santa Barbara, which she begins in August. A native Californian, Rev De Wolf will find herself back in her home state and closer to family. Before she leaves for the West Coast, the newly ordained Rev De Wolf will present the sermon at the church that has hosted her for the past three years. On Sunday, June 15, the Reverend De Wolf will present a message she is calling "The Great Commission."
"Unity in Diversity," a weekly television program, can be seen on Mondays at noon and Wednesdays at 5:30 pm on Charter Communications channel 21. Each week, viewers may experience leaders and representatives of a variety of local faith communities, sharing their message in a non-threatening manner. Programs for June 9 to August 27 have been announced by The Reverend Leo McIlrath, host and creator of "Unity In Diversity."
The town's oldest church continued its 300th anniversary celebration on May 18, with a Colonial-era style Sabbath Worship Service. Members of Newtown Congregational Church were invited to first gather on Sunday morning outside Newtown Meeting House on Main Street, which was the first home for NCC. Shane DeMarche served as the morning's drummer, calling those who wished to attend services to gather with ministers in front of 31 Main Street. Shortly before 10 am, the group proceeded from the meeting house to the current Newtown Congregational Church location at 14 West Street. Once all arrived at the church the traditions continued, including the seating of women on one side of the sanctuary and men on the other, deacons sitting on a bench facing those in the sanctuary, and tithing men charged with keeping order during the service.
Newtown Congregational Church will continue its 300th anniversary celebration with a special service on Sunday, May 18. The public is invited to join members of NCC for a service that will be presented in the style of a Colonial-era service. The morning will begin at 9:30 am, when the public will be drummed to worship by NCC members dressed in Colonial garb. The drumming will be done outside Newtown Meeting House, at 31 Main Street. The drumming will call attention to the 10 am worship service. Worshippers will be called to gather at the meeting house, and then walk as a group to the church building on West Street.
Chris Camp, the pastor of Sandy Hook Baptist Church, has announced that the recently formed church has begun meeting in a new location. The church is now meeting in the rear building at 111 Church Hill Road, in the space formerly occupied by Unique Blessings. Regular services are Sunday mornings at 10:30, Sunday afternoons at 2, and Thursday evenings at 7. Church members have also planned a series of Get Acquainted Meetings, to welcome newcomers to the church and its new location. These are planned for Monday through Friday, May 19–23, at 7 each night.
"Unity and Diversity" is a weekly television program featuring interviews with leaders and representatives of various local religious communities.

PHOENIX (AP) - A legislative committee will hold a
special meeting to discuss Arizona's role in providing catastrophic
coverage for the uncovered firefighters who died in the Yarnell Hill
Some of the 19 firefighters killed were classified
as seasonal employees with the city of Prescott, so their families don't
qualify for full survivors' benefits.
Also to be discussed will be how to provide coverage for all Arizona first responders in the event of future disasters.
The Sept. 17 meeting of the House Public Safety,
Military and Regulatory Affairs Committee is being called in response to
legislative language proposed by House Speaker Andy Tobin.
The lightning-sparked fire trapped the Granite
Mountain Hotshots on June 30 as it barreled toward Yarnell. It burned
8,400 acres before it was controlled on July 12.

Classes & Ensembles Additions and Withdrawals
Students must pay any adjustments in tuition in order for a change to take effect.
Students may withdraw from courses, Chamber Music groups and Jazz Ensembles and receive a refund according to the following schedule:
- During the first week of class/lessons, 75% course fee refunded.
- After the first week through the second week, 50% course fee refunded.
- After the second week through the third week, 25% course fee refunded.
- After the third week, no refund.
For refund purposes, chamber ensembles are deemed to begin the first week of each semester.
Students may withdraw from Large Ensembles (orchestras and choruses) and receive a refund according to the following schedule:
- Before the first scheduled rehearsal, full tuition refund less $210 non-refundable deposit.
- After the first scheduled rehearsal, 75% tuition refund less $210 non-refundable deposit.
- After the second scheduled rehearsal, 50% tuition refund less $210 non-refundable deposit.
- After the third scheduled rehearsal, 25% tuition refund less $210 non-refundable deposit.
- After the fourth scheduled rehearsal, no refund.
Students must request withdrawal from a class in person or in writing to the Registrar. Informing an instructor of a decision to withdraw from a course, stopping or withholding payment, and not attending classes do not constitute withdrawal from a course. There is no refund for year-long Preparatory School courses dropped mid-year.
Exceptional refund requests will be reviewed when the request is made in writing with adequate documentation.
The school reserves the right to cancel any class or ensemble with insufficient enrollment. In the case of a course cancellation, the student will receive a full refund of tuition and the registration fee.
Private Lessons, Withdrawals, Refunds
Students changing private teachers within an academic season must complete a "Change of Private Teacher Form" prior to making the course change. This form requires the signature of the current teacher, the new teacher, the parent, and the department chair and/or the Director of the Preparatory School.
Because teachers set aside time slots on the basis of registrations and often refuse other students, the amount refunded to a student who wishes to withdraw must be agreed upon by both the instructor and the student. Any instances in which the teacher and student cannot agree will be referred to an administrative committee for a final decision.
Students are expected to appear for regularly scheduled lessons. Teacher absences will be made up at mutually arranged times with the student. If the student and teacher agree that the number of registered lessons cannot be met, a refund may be requested before the end of the semester. Student absences for any reason do not qualify as refundable missed lessons. Teachers may make up these lessons at their discretion. Make-up lessons cannot be guaranteed if absence is incurred by the student.
Students are responsible for ensuring that they receive the lessons for which they have paid. Students experiencing unusual teacher absentee problems should contact the Director of the Preparatory School.

The other Beatles thought Pete was a pretty good drummer,
but then in Hamburg they heard and met Ringo. When the
Beatles and Pete returned to Liverpool, Mona acted as
the booking agent for what she considered "Pete's
band". She got them introduced into the Cavern
Club. Pete played on "My Bonnie" and the other
tracks recorded with Tony Sheridan for Bert Kaempfert
in Germany.
In November 1961, Brian Epstein became the Beatles'
manager, and in April, 1962, Brian succeeded in getting
them an audition with George Martin at Parlophone, which
happened on June 6. By this time, both Paul and George
were encouraging Brian to help them get rid of Pete,
to bring on Ringo permanently, who had been filling
in for Pete with the Beatles every now and then. In
late July, George Martin commited to recording the Beatles.
When George Martin told Brian that he didn't care for
Pete, and that they would use another drummer on the
sessions, he didn't know the Beatles were already thinking
the same thing. Brian told him during a lunch time meeting
in his office on August 15. Mersey Beat broke the news
on August 23. Pete Best fans were outraged. Petitions
signed by hundreds were received at Mersey Beat. Cries
of "Pete Best Forever---Ringo, never!" were
heard at the Cavern Club. The following Monday, one
of the many scuffles outside the Cavern Club resulted
in a black eye for George Harrison.

Rated 4 out of 5�by 3 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5�by midblue79 valve leakage i like everything about this product other than the bite valve, it cracked behind the bite part and leaks constantly, If i could buy replacement parts i would probably give it a 5 star rating, but since i cant find replacement parts and have to try and adapt camelpak parts to it to make it work again it gets a 3. what i really liked about this bag was how comfortable it was and how easy to fill it was. you could easily fill it with your drink of choice and a bag of ice to keep it cold. Its low profile and straps on tight. Needs to have replacement parts... May 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by jonnyneon great product Its a great product for jogging, hiking, walking, and other outdoor activities. I am satisfied and it serves its purpose. July 23, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by TrailBreaker Good minimalist pack, but broke down on me I received this hydration as a gift a few months ago. I have used it for a 9 mile hike once, and it performed great, had no problems with it. It is good for someone who does not need too much space other than a phone, your water, a snack and maybe a jacket or something in the bungee cords. However, about three weeks after receiving it, I was using it at track practice and the bite valve began to leak at times, especially after you bit down on the valve too hard. It usually could be remedied with pushing back the valve into the tube temporarily, but now I am probably going to keep the pack but replace the hydration system with something of higher quality. I would not recommend it for this reason, but it may be my fault. I would recommend buying a hydration pack and system of a little higher quality. May 15, 2013

LONDON, Sept. 1 (UPI) — British archaeologists say a tomb found at a quarry in Wales could be that of some of the original builders of Stonehenge.
Researchers say the Carn Menyn site in the Preseli Hills is where the bluestones used to construct the first stone phase of Stonehenge were quarried in about 2300 B.C., the BBC reported Wednesday.
At the quarry, the remains of a ceremonial monument were found that appears to have a pair of standing stones embedded in it, a direct architectural link to Stonehenge, where the first bluestones from the quarry were also set in pairs.
The tomb is in the style of a typical Neolithic burial monument, researchers said.
"We have obviously got a very important person who may have been responsible for the impetus for these stones to be transported" to Stonehenge, researcher Geoff Wainwright said. "It can be compared directly with the first Stonehenge, so for the first time we have a direct link between Carn Menyn — where the bluestones came from — and Stonehenge, in the form of this ceremonial monument."

Gun buyer background checks proposed
Published on Wed, Feb 20, 2013 by
Zoey Palmer, Reporter WNPA Olympia News Bureau
Read More
Gun-control opponents and supporters packed a hearing room on the Capitol campus in Olympia February 13 to testify about a bill requiring universal background checks for gun purchases.
State law currently requires background checks when buying a gun from a licensed firearms dealer, but not between private, unlicensed citizens. HB 1588 would require a background check for those sales as well. The bill, sponsored by Representative Jamie Pedersen (D-43rd District, Seattle), requires the seller to request a National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check on the buyer from a licensed dealer or local law enforcement, either of which may charge up to $20 for the service. Under the bill, the background check requirement would not apply to the sale of antique guns.
NICS checks are usually immediate, but if one is delayed for more than three days the transaction would be allowed to go through without it. The same rule currently applies to licensed gun dealers.
Pedersen explained that the bill is a common-sense approach to keeping guns out of the hands of violent criminals and those who are dangerous or mentally ill.
"I believe we have broad agreement in our society that there are some classes of people who should not have guns," he said, speaking to the House judiciary committee that conducted the hearing.
Pedersen maintained that background checks are an effective way to prevent criminals from obtaining guns and said extending the requirement to private transactions, which represent 40 percent of firearms sales in the state, would help further reduce gun violence.
Don Pierce of the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs stated that members of his organization support the right of a citizen to own a gun, except for those not allowed to by law. "The only way that we can really know for sure that we're limiting gun transactions to felons is to create a background check process," said Pierce.
Opponents of the bill claimed it would only affect law-abiding citizens; criminals, they argued, don't follow laws and would obtain guns illegally.
"Since it's already illegal for a felon to purchase a handgun anywhere from anyone," said Linda Wilson, "how is regulating the sale of guns by a law-abiding gun owner going to change any action by a criminal?"
Others raised concerns about the possibility of a gun owner database being created from the background checks. The original version of the bill does not require government agencies to destroy the request after the background checks are completed.
"What this is really all about is not really regulating private transactions," said Brian Judy of the National Rifle Association. "It's about creating a registration database." The bill would effectively create a registry for rifles and shotguns similar to federal handgun registration, claimed Alan Gottlieb of the Citizen's Committee to Keep and Bear Arms.
A proposed change to the bill, which was not available until just before the hearing, would require agencies to destroy the forms used to request a background check and would not require a background check on buyers with state concealed pistol permits.
Licensed dealers may be the only way for a private seller to obtain a background check. According to some who addressed the committee, many police departments have policies against running background checks for private, non-licensed citizens.
Representative Mike Hope (R-44th District, Snohomish), a co-sponsor of the bill and a Seattle police officer, and Seattle police deputy chief of operations Nick Metz said it's against their department's policy to run background checks for private citizens. The bill doesn't address those policies.
Randal Bragge, a resident of Belfair, said he called the Mason County Sheriff's office and was told it would not perform a background check for an unlicensed gun seller.
Metz maintained that police aren't opposed to responsible gun ownership, but if licensed gun shops are required to do a background check then unlicensed sellers should, too.
Judy noted that some private gun owners can and do voluntarily request a background check on prospective buyers through a licensed dealer, but for a higher fee than the proposed bill provides. "Dealers charge anywhere from $30 to $60; it's very likely they won't be able to do this for $20, and it could have the impact of shutting down private transactions," he said.
Under terms of the bill, dealers would not be compelled to perform a background checks for private gun transactions.
Dinah Griffey, identifying herself as a domestic-violence survivor, believes regulations on buying guns hurts women by restricting their ability to defend themselves."I told myself at that time that I will never, never allow myself to be a victim," said Griffey.
"Every time you limit a woman's right to defend herself you empower her attacker," she said.
More people die from guns than car crashes in King County, according to Dr. David Fleming, director and health officer for the Seattle Public Health Department.
"All these injuries and deaths are inherently preventable and therefore gun violence is a public health problem," Fleming said.
Some solutions are controversial, noted Fleming, but background checks shouldn't be. "If we as a society believe some people should not have guns then we must put a system in place that makes it as unlikely as possible that they're able to buy them," he said.
Kim Latterell, an evangelical pastor in Pierce County as well as a hunter and gun owner, supports gun rights, but believes that such rights come with conditions, including training, safe storage, licensing and regulation. HB 1588 is a first step in a long process of making communities safer, he offered.
"Government is a good gift of God and when government protects the most vulnerable among us, then they are a good government indeed," he said.
The bill was scheduled for a committee vote February 19.

I am a nerdy, obsessive, crafty, tea blogging, gaming nut. Yeah, that about sums me up! Ok, you want something more informative….
I am a Geek, hardcore fan-girl Geek. It shapes my life. I spend a lot of time making things out of perler beads and I bet you can guess what inspires them. Other than the obsessive pixelizing of things I spend a large portion of my time doing origami (especially Lucky Stars and modular geometric designs) it is an equal obsession. I hoard dice, get obsessed with games, and will talk about whatever fandom, game, etc that I am obsessed over until I am blue in the face. I am not just a gamer girl type Geek, I also fit in the collecting knowledge and spending way too much time reading, category of Geek.
But there is more to me than just being a giant nerd. I love tea, always have and have just gotten more and more obsessed as I get older. I love trying new teas and then writing lengthy descriptions about them on my blog, I love reading and researching the history and culture of tea, I love collecting tea pots and fancy tea tools.
When the weather allows it, I love to go mushroom hunting. I don't eat them, instead I use them for photography and spore prints. It is my dream to one day become a Mycologist studying slime molds.
I have Fibromyalgia, it sucks, but I feel people who are going to interact with me should know since I tend to vanish because of it. So fair warning!!
I also have cats, love the ocean and all aquatic life, love cheese, and collect hats.
My favorite tea is definitely Oolong, but I also love Japanese greens and…ok I just love tea actually :P I am not a huge fan of lemony teas or tart fruit teas. I also loathe hibiscus (usually)
This is my actual tea wishlist, you know that I actually update and keep track of…I tend to forget Steepster's https://www.facebook.com/notes/amanda-wilson/tea-wishlishtshopping-list-perpetually-in-progress/10152336515414411 I use my steepster WL to keep track of teas I have had and really want more of :P

In southwest Detroit, an officer on a motorcycle has been injured in a crash. Inspector Leslie Montgomery's leg was broken in a few places, but he's going to be okay. He was rushed to Detroit Receiving Hospital.
All of this happened around 3:00 p.m. Monday at 20th Street and Vernor. We're told the inspector was heading west on Vernor and was struck by an SUV turning left into the driveway of state Rep. Rashida Tlaib's office. The motorist told police he didn't see the officer on his bike.
Tlaib witnesses the crash from her window. "It was scary, but thank God the driver was not intoxicated. Hit the motorcycle, just did not see it, and he was rolling down the street and it was very shocking to see through my window of my office. But he's fine. He just got the call that there's no internal bleeding, just a fracture or two," she said. That driver of the SUV was 24 years old. We're told he was a student who was dropping off some constituency paperwork to Tlaib's office.
Right after the crash, he went into the office. We tried to talk to him, but Tlaib told us that he was very shaken up. He was bruised, but not seriously injured.

Twin Cities reporter Keith Leventhal snapped this pic in a Green Bay tavern (via FanSided.com). This is what passes for humor in a Packer bar. Yes Packers you held him nine yards short of the record. While giving up 199 yards. On top of the 210 you gave him in the last game. You're Packer fans so I know you can't do the math on that. Let me do it for you. 210 + 199 = 409. 409 yards in two games. Your guys really stuffed him! That's why B.J. Raji kept wagging his finger. We stopped you Adrian Peterson! You won't get 410 yards in two games on us!
Only Packer fans would be stupid enough to taunt a guy who gashed their defense for over 200 yards-per-game in one season. And that average may go up after the third game. This might be the day AD runs for 300. What will Packer fans say then. At least you didn't get 400 in one game! Is there a more clueless fanbase on the planet? Stop drinking Packer fans. You can't spare the brain cells.

City continues to study sewer solution
Blaine city council continues to study the sewer issue and wastewater alternatives, and will meet again next Monday, October 27, at 5:15 p.m. in a public study session at city hall.
The council is reviewing the recommendations made by the Citizens Wastewater Advisory Committee (CWAC) � a 10-member committee comprised of residents with a wide range of backgrounds � and is receiving information from city staff.
According to public works director Steve Banham, much of the focus during the last study session was on financing and how the alternatives could be funded. �The city is taking a very pragmatic approach to this decision,� he said. �Council reached a consensus that connection to Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD) through Surrey is the preferred alternative to be included in the general sewer plan that will be submitted for review in early November.�
The updated general sewer plan will be submitted to the state Department of Ecology (DOE) for approval, which is a prerequisite for most grant and loan funding applications.
Banham said building a new wastewater treatment plant on Marine Drive would be a back-up, if the city is unable to reach an agreement with Canada.
�Although there will clearly have to be increases in wastewater rates and connection charges, the Canadian solution is the one that provides an effective solution with the least burden to the ratepayers � a concern to both staff and city council,� Banham said.
According to public works, the federal government provided a $225,000 grant to conduct the wastewater planning effort currently in progress. Special consideration is given to municipalities that already have high sewer rates compared to the median income, and Blaine falls into that category.
The CWAC committee is composed of: Frank Bresnan, Pam Christianson, Jeff Green, Trevor Hoskins, Jan Hrutfiord, Jim Jorgensen, Geoff Menzies, Brad O'Neill, and Ken Raithel. Mark Henderson of the Department of Health assisted the committee.
For those individuals seeking additional information, visit online at www.cityofblaine.com and click under what�s new. Materials can also be found at the public works conference room at 1200 Yew Avenue in Blaine from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

You can almost imagine the excitement in the TechArt workshop when Porsche launched the Cayman S. Here was a car that was the most philosophically pure of all the contemporary Porsches but one that could not, for political reasons, better the 911. If ever there was a car ripe for tuning, it was this.
It has taken several months for TechArt to respond, but the first of its tuned Caymans is now sitting quietly outside the modest headquarters near Stuttgart, Germany. For the next two days, the "TechArt GT" will be ours as we explore the finer points of the car Porsche dared not build. The GT is still instantly recognizable as a Porsche-that has always been the TechArt way-but it's noticeably lower than before and the oversized alloys exaggerate the curve of the wheel arches. It looks like it was plucked from the designer's sketchbook, before production feasibilities and marketing mumbo jumbo took their toll.
This look is far from accidental. TechArt's aesthetic makeover is subtle but comprehensive. A new front spoiler and grille is joined by side skirts, new mirror covers and a restyled rear bumper. The introduction of a fixed rear wing renders redundant the standard Cayman's automated wing, which now sits impotently on the tailgate. TechArt Formula 20" alloy wheels complete a look that is hunched and purposeful.
For what it's worth, the only detail I don't like is the rear spoiler. TechArt reckons that it's aerodynamically advantageous, but it's small enough to be apologetic and it compromises the classic elegance of the Cayman's silhouette. I'd rather save the euros and cope with a smidgeon more lift.
The cows that contributed to the standard Cayman's interior died in vain. TechArt's interior boffins didn't rate the standard leather, so they replaced it with hide of their own, presumably gleaned from cows that have been fed beer and massaged by girls in lederhosen.
The interior of the demo car is finished in black and red with silver detailing, but TechArt takes pride in offering bespoke solutions. The company even revamped Michael Schumacher's private jet. Customers are free to choose their own color scheme, and judging by the hue of the hides hanging in the factory, it's an offer that many take up. The key touch points have also been TechArtified. The aluminum pedals are beautifully placed for exponents of the heel-and-toe technique; the three-spoke wheel is ergonomically optimized at a-quarter-to-three and the gearstick mixes leather and aluminum. They all feel great, although I miss the visual treat afforded by the Porsche emblem on the steering wheel. An embossed TechArt logo doesn't quite have the same impact.
All these details help to boost the Cayman's pose value, but they do little to change the dynamics. Those revisions are hidden from view. Later in the year TechArt will unveil 3.6- and 3.8-liter Caymans, but for now, the engine tweak is relatively modest. A new sport air filter and ECU increase the power output from 295 to 310 bhp. A short shifter reduces the gearchange travel by 20 percent. More significant are the changes to the suspension. The introduction of Eibach springs and Bilstein dampers has reduced the ride height by 25-30mm and fundamentally altered the dynamics. These control the 20-inch alloys, which come wrapped in Continental SportContact 2 tires, 235/30-20 at the front and 305/25-20 at the rear. The brakes are unchanged.
At low speeds, the ride is noticeably firm. Surface scars that might go undetected in the standard car are defined by the TechArt and transmitted through the chunky wheel. But the change is not so abrupt that it feels harsh or uncomfortable. Anyone stepping out of a 911 GT3 would call it luxurious.
The trade-off is an even greater degree of poise, grip and security when pushing on. The Techart feels better planted on the road than either a conventional Cayman or a 997. Body roll is noticeable only by its absence and you can carry huge speed through bends with complete confidence. The innate agility afforded by the Cayman's mid-engine configuration has also been unaffected by the conversion, although the last tenth of steering feel has been diluted by the bigger boots and also, perhaps, by the new steering wheel. The front tires are no longer quite as chatty as once they were.

Study documents adverse effects of pitocin on newborns
On May 7, 2013 the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists released its comments on the results of a study of the adverse effects of Pitocin on newborns. I can only hope that the doctors who routinely prescribe this drug for all their laboring moms actually pay attention, and try to practice evidence-based medicine.re we seriously only now looking at the potential adverse reaction for the babies? When a huge percentage of moms get induced and even more have their labor augmented with pitocin, shouldn't we have looked at the effect on babies BEFORE we started using it routinely?

Here are a few of my favorite restaurants around the state. Check back, because these will be updated often.
Jimmy's Hot Dog Company, Bisbee
The signature dish at Jimmy's is the classic Chicago hot dog which is culinary architecture. To qualify as a Chicago dog, an exacting blueprint must be followed. Start with the Cadillac of tube steak, Vienna all-beef hot dogs in natural casings. The casing gives it that satisfying snap, releasing juices and flavor at every bite. The dog nestles on a poppy seed bun from S. Rosen's, a Chi-town institution. Ingredients are piled on in precise order-mustard, neon green relish, chopped onions, tomato wedges, a pickle spear, two sport peppers and a dash of celery salt.
The result is a private riot in your mouth, a joyous collision of flavors. The juicy beast rolls across your taste buds in waves, a meal vastly more complex and savory than most served on fine china flanked by an array of forks. Jimmy's serves a full slate of dogs and sandwiches including brats, grinders, meatball subs and the SeaDog, wild caught cod in crispy beer batter. All sandwiches come with delicious, fresh-made fries, bursting with a salty zing of real potato flavor. 938 W. Arizona 92, 520-432-5911.
Redneck's Southern Pit Barbecue, Kingman
If there's a foolproof way to open a restaurant, Bubba and Tammy Floyd found it. The husband and wife team, originally from Tennessee, built a full-service barbecue trailer and became a welcome presence at Mohave County events. For five years crowds lined up at fairs and rodeos to sample the Floyd's down-home pulled pork, slow-cooked ribs and hearty side dishes. Along the way they built up a huge, hungry clientele clamoring for more.
So when the Floyd's opened a cozy eatery in May, crowds poured in. Appropriately enough for someone dishing up Memphis-style barbecue, they landed on Beale Street and are leading the revitalization of downtown Kingman. Everything that comes out of the kitchen is based on old family recipes, including Grandma's cobbler. All meats are languidly cooked over hickory wood and served with sauce on the side. 420 E. Beale St., 928-757-8227.
Troia's Pizza Pasta Amore, Sedona
The hostess station at Troia's is like the Arrival gate at the airport. Almost everyone who walks in is greeted with hugs and raucous hellos. Open 15 years, serving a slate of healthy, vibrant Italian cuisine, it's no wonder Sam and Rosanne Troia know everybody in town and about half the population of the state. If they don't know you at the beginning of the meal, they will by the time you're moaning over the homemade tiramisu.
Chef Shawn Murphy believes in striking the right balance with fresh, simple ingredients. Take the sautéed mussels served in a roasted garlic and white wine broth created from a bare handful of ingredients, but you'll want to sop up every last molecule with the crusty bread. Mix and match pastas and sauces but be aware you'll receive over a one pound serving. Put on your game face. The chicken Milanese combines the soft crunch of the zesty pan seared breading with the tender meat. It's served over linguine with seasonally fresh vegetable. 1885 W. Arizona 89A, 928-282-0123, www.troias.com.
Greek Islands, Flagstaff
These guys practically invented the $10 meal. Their highest priced item is the moussaka, a lasagna-like dish of eggplant, potatoes, ground beef and cheese served with basmati rice for $9.99. The place is a proud hole-in-the-wall that can fit 35 people inside and on their back alley patio, and often do. Since opening last July word of mouth has created a huge fan base for their authentic Mediterranean cuisine.
Everything is made from scratch, including the creamy, zingy tzatziki with a nice garlic bite. The gyro platter comes with a small Greek salad, pita, gyro meats, tzatziki and basmati rice. The chef's vegetable plate is a mad medley of spicy delights with hummus, tabouli, dolmades and spanakopita amongst an array of veggies and olives and nuggets of feta cheese. Opa! 109 E. Phoenix Ave., 928-779-0106.

Police: Man dead after hut fireFebruary 07,2013ST. ALBANS The St. Albans police department says a homeless man was found dead after fire destroyed a small hut on the edge of the Vermont city.
An autopsy is being conducted on the body of 54-year-old Richard Poquette to determine the cause of death, but police say the body had severe burns when it was found late Tuesday afternoon and indications are it was an accidental fire death, which may have been started by a burning candle.
Police were called to a wooded area, about 100 yards from North Main Street, at about 4:10 p.m. Thursday after a caller reported finding a body. Poquettes body was found outside the hut, which had been destroyed by fire and was still smoldering.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Lawmakers complained to the states top health care reform official Thursday they...

In an "Entrepreneurial Thought Leader" lecture given at Stanford University earlier this year, Tom Siebel argues that all of the great technological advances and development of great companies are behind us – and the growth rate for the tech sector is just on par with the rate of current economic growth.
The previous sentence introduces a segment of the February 2009 Stanford lecture, see here for the event's full video.
It's not the first time some killjoy predicts the end of tech fun: in 1899, a Charles H. Duell, none less than the Commissioner of the US Patent and Trademark Office, the USPTO reportedly said: "Everything that can be invented has been invented".
There is a distinct possibility the infamous quote is nothing but an urban legend but, time and again, some sage comes to a forum and tells us the great times are behind us, the tech industry has now entered a grey era of incrementalism.
I've personally heard it a few times. In the early 1970s, at Hewlett-Packard where Bill Hewlett told such skeptics where to file their predictions away. In 1985, when I moved to Silicon Valley to take over Apple's Product Development. I was told Silicon Valley was doomed, it was becoming a ghost town as unheard of layoffs were taking place. In the early 90's, when the first Gulf War and a bad economy emptied shopping centers and restaurants.
Soon thereafter, the Internet came out of the research lab closet, the browser was invented and yet another wave of innovation came about.
As for Tom Siebel, his background makes the gloomy prediction more puzzling: he's not part of the kommentariat, he is an industry mensch, the inventor of CRM, rising to the industry's firmament and later selling Siebel Systems to Oracle for $5.8 billion. Perhaps he was merely trying to arouse his audience and start a reaction.
Still, is he right? Have we entered an era where all of the great technological advances and development of great companies are behind us – and where the growth rate for the tech sector is just on par with the rate of current economic growth?
Absolutely not.
Take bandwidth. Fiber or air, landlines or wireless. Getting 100 megabits per second with FTH (Fiber To the Home) will change the way we communicate, entertain, work, manage energy, provide healthcare, education or just physical security. If this sounds a little broad, take Skype Video today, using DSL. Now, think of the image quality and conferencing features we'll get with our dispersed families or coworkers. Today, Cisco sells high-end telepresence systems for enterprise customers, tomorrow, just as we went from mainframes to personal computers, we'll have personal telepresence. No real insight here, just history repeating itself. Speaking of which, the incumbents will keep being dislodged by interlopers: AT&T, when it still was Ma Bell, predicted the advent of the home videophone, but didn't get to deliver it, leaving it to Skype, iChat and many others riding the Internet.
Moving to wireless, a widely quoted statistic says there are about 4 billion cell phone subscriptions. How many of these will benefit from the faster "4G" networks being deployed? In the near future, a small minority in the more sophisticated, richer markets. Longer term, cell phones will mutate into smartphones or, more accurately, really personal computers, or pocket computers, as Apple begins to call its smartphones. These new computers will have more "organs", that is sensors and communication channels, than our PCs. Going back to the Skype example, we'll have pocket videophones RSN (Real Soon Now). Next year?
These new devices will have a similarly profound impact on the activities (work, entertainment, healthcare…) mentioned above. Profound impact seen in substantial new economic activity.
Here, too, incumbents are and will be dislodged. When it comes to the new pocket computers, Microsoft no longer dominates. RIM, Google with Android, Nokia, Apple, of course, are driving progress; Microsoft follows.
Then, we have the "New Microsoft", an admittedly lazy and unfair way of characterizing Google, save for its size, for its impact. Google, for all the fear it will put newspapers or book publishers out of business isn't a convicted monopolist. But tower they do and their size could lead them to do very bad or very good things. Take Cloud Computing, a still evolving concept as intermediate implementations debug our thoughts. And couple it with what some call the Web of Objects. Here, the assumption is everyday objects will "steal" smartphone technology, acquire sensors and wired or wireless communication capabilities. Now, "visualize" (we're in California) a future of everyday objects always connected together, hence the web word, and to the Internet, hence the capital W. (Even if wireless communication chips are bound to become commodities, I would not sell my Broadcom or Marvell stock, the volume and diversity will more than compensate for the downwards price pressure. This is a figure of speech: I don't own any of these stocks, I don't play the stock market.)
Even more seriously: the Web of Objects will be a major source of Cloud Computing applications such as managing these objects, cars, heating and security systems, mobile medical devices, power distribution networks. Or, forgive the lopsided metaphor, mining the sea of data generated by these sensing and communicated objects. This will have a major impact on the environment, and the economy, making it easier to monitor how we distribute and spend energy.
Other than seeing very positive development in harnessing together computing and genomics, I'll stay away from biotech, regrettably not my area of experience. In another life, perhaps. Google, as I did, "the future of biotech" and you'll see plenty of reasons to be confident biotech isn't about to enter a "grey ear" either.
In 1986, I added one chapter to the US translation of my book, The Third Apple. In it I dreamed of sitting under a tree and, with a portable computer, enjoying access to what I called "Ten Thousand Libraries of Alexandria". This was a wild underestimation of what technology and culture would bring about. I trust I'm still being a little timid, derivative, unable to see beyond evolutions of what we know and do today.
And, as a venture investor, I look forward to the disruptions. — firstname.lastname@example.com

Southgate Police say they are making progress in a murder investigation from February.
The body of David Sellers, 66, was found at an apartment complex on Fox Chase Drive on February 27.
Campbell County Coroner's Office has determined that Sellers died due to a blunt force trauma.
The incident is being investigated as a homicide.
Police say they are following several leads that point in the same direction. They believe that the killer is someone Sellers knew and not a random individual.
Authorities say they can't name a suspect yet. However, they are hoping this will change soon.
