"He had rules for me about dating and stuff. It was really sweet," Anna Kendrick said at Saturday's press day for their new comedy/drama Up in the Air, out Dec. 4. "It's funny, actually. A friend of his that was his age [48] was dating somebody younger than me. He thought that was fine. I was like, 'What would you say to me if I were dating somebody your age?' He said, 'Oh no, absolutely not.' "
The 24-year-old admits, "He had this kind of older brother thing with me." And, her character, who has argumentative romantic tension with Clooney in the film, jokes, "Is he too old for me? Yes. George Clooney is too old for me."
Good thing, too, since Clooney is dating MTV Italy host Elisabetta Canalis.
Kendrick, who also currently stars in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, says she's happy just to spar with him.
"I loved yelling at George. I loved telling George off. I loved telling George that he was a 12-year-old. I was so looking forward to that scene almost to the extent that I was concerned that it was going to be a kind of indulgent thing ... It's like every ex-boyfriend I have ever had in the form of George Clooney on a boardwalk. [It] was a lot of fun."

When you have a massive deuce that must come out when your at a big party. You remove the top lid to the toilet, and release all the poo into it. When done, put the lid back on, and walk out like nothing happened.

A modification on the "classic" upper decker. In a public toilet setting (where there are no tanks/commodes), you improvise and shit in the urinal.
When Hank got fired from his job, he pulled an upper decker in the company bathroom.

to leave a nice steaming terd on the toilet seat, enhancing the savory odor for the next user of the john; especially irritating to females, dudes not so much. Not to be confused with a Back Door Bandit which involves removing the lid of the reservoir tank and much better balance
eww, gross!!! some fuckwad left a upper decker in there!!!!! take me somewhere to tinkle, dammit!!

To put toilet paper over someone elses poo when the toilet is clogged and then take a shit on top of the original poo.
I shit on eric's poo because he clogged the toilet and there was nowhere else to go.

(Film Critique). When a movie starts out engaging and has great potential, but then the ending falls apart and the whole thing turns to shit. It's like finding an Upper Decker when you flush your toilet at the end of a party. It's there, and it's shit, you just don't know it yet.
The movie Enemy (2013) was a real Upper Decker.

G.T. 'Buck' Smith learns of the new G.T. 'Buck' Smith presidential chair, announced recently by D&E Trustee June Myles. Established in honor of Smith's service from 2008 to 2013, it is funded with initial commitments totaling $1 million from members of the Board of Trustees.
The surprise announcement was made during a board dinner prior to the college's "Notes of Thanks" concert.
Smith expressed his surprise for the honor, responding in brief comments: "The privilege of serving D&E these past five years is reward enough. To experience such an expression of gratitude is overwhelming."
Myles noted the difference Smith has made during his tenure at Davis & Elkins College. Under his leadership, D&E increased its full-time enrollment by more than 50 percent, paid off all of its external debt and completed more than $10 million in campus improvements. His six-step game plan, announced on his first day as president, was to reduce expenses, recruit students, retain students, raise funds, renew programs and reach for new opportunities. His student-centered initiatives, including the Highlands Scholarship, have received widespread attention, including national press coverage.
Myles said the G.T. "Buck" Smith presidential chair will be formally dedicated during Homecoming 2013 on the D&E campus. President-Elect Dr. Michael Mihalyo will be the first holder of the Smith chair.
More information about D&E College is available at www.dewv.edu or 304-637-1243.

DUNKIRK – An eight-month investigation into crack-cocaine sales in Dunkirk led to the arrest of a Buffalo resident already serving time in the Erie County Holding Center, the Southern Tier Regional Drug Task Force announced.
The task force, working with Dunkirk police, charged Mikial C. Moore, 24, of Newport Street, Buffalo, with criminal sale and possession of a controlled substance, both felonies.
Authorities said task-force agents made undercover narcotics buys from Moore.
After learning that Moore was incarcerated in the holding center, Dunkirk police obtained an arrest warrant and transported him to the Dunkirk City Jail.
Anyone with information on illegal drug activity in the city of Dunkirk is asked to call the Dunkirk police hot line at 363-0313.

Gorr on Actus Reus
Jeffrie G. Murphy
Arizona State University College of Law
Criminal Justice Ethics, Vol. 10, p. 18, 1991
This article analyzes Professor Gorr's arguments about the actus reus requirement in criminal law. Gorr does not think that a fundamental reconceputalization of actus reus is in order, but his criticisms of those who argue for a fundamental reconceptualization fail. Under the heading of the actus reus requirement fourt different issues bearing on criminal liability are subsumed: (1) the law usually does not punish omissions, (2) the law usually does not punish for status alone, (3) the law usually does not punish for thoughts alone, and (4) the law usually does not punish for involuntary behavior. Traditional actus reus theory maintains that a requirement of a physical act is what unites them all, but critics persuasively show that this requirement will not work. However, the critics have failed to identify an alternative universal unifying principle. Perhaps, then, it is just a laundry list and any attempt to impose a common principle that unites what really are four important but quite different principles is simply, what Herbert Hart has called 'uniformity at the price of distortion.'

Websters Dictionary defines neurosis as a mental or personality disturbance not attributable to any known neurological or organic dysfunction. Sub definitions include neurotic or obsessive compulsive behavior.
This got me to thinking, obsessively and compulsively.
Websters also said the terms neurosis and neurotic were no longer used scientifically to diagnose mental illness. Thats nice to know.
I live a solitary lifestyle and because I dont have anyone immediately nearby with whom to share time and ideas, these ideas and a gaggle of somewhat eccentric idiosyncrasies are left to fester between my ears.
I think about things. I think about things a lot. I think about things too much. That is my basic neurosis.
A couple examples, if I may.
Last week I ate lunch at Subway. Theres nothing wrong with eating lunch at Subway, but lately the consuming public has been assaulted with advertising campaigns. From Subway to pretzel M&Ms, advertisers want us to think about eating.
Well, I do.
From the moment I pulled into the parking lot through ordering my sub, selecting my desired toppings (everything but tomato), watching them make the sandwich, paying the cashier, driving back to the office and through every bite from beginning to the last stray mustard-drenched pickle hiding among the folds of the wax paper wrapper, the stupid Subway jingle played over and over and over again inside my head.
Five Five Five dollar foot longs.
And then the word, Februany.
I about popped out an eyeball.
I lack the oral coordination to say the word Februany without biting my tongue, and yes, when I sing a song in my mind, sometimes my mouth moves which made for an interesting time trying to eat my foot-long sub.
I almost choked a couple of times trying to chew and say, Februany at the same time.
Neurotic? Of course.
This next notion crosses my mind more than it doesnt, and the more I practice sound dental hygiene habits, the more the notion lodges like a stubborn popcorn kernel between my cerebral teeth.
Do you remember the old birthday party prize game of dropping the clothespin into the glass milk jug? With the advent of 3-D video games, dropping clothespins into milk jugs for prizes has lost its allure. Kids dont play it anymore.
The object of the game was to kneel over the back of a kitchen chair, hold the clothespin to your chin, and attempt to drop it into a gallon-sized glass milk bottle.
Dropping clothespins into glass milk jugs was no easy task. At 5-and-6 years of age we stunk at dropping clothespins into milk jugs.
These days I recreate that game and practice every time I brush my teeth, and I nail it, almost every spit. Im deadly with a mouthful of toothpaste and would wager Id be equally dangerous with a wooden clothespin.
All I need is a glass gallon milk jug.
If I could go back into time armed with the oral coordination skills I have now, Id rule at birthday parties and clean up on the door prizes.
Disturbing? Oh, just one in long line of disturbing neuroses. I could go on all day.
Still, I feel kind of sorry for the words neurosis and neurotic behavior as they have been retired from the vernacular of psychological diagnosis. Such behavior is now called a personality disorder.
I find this funny.
Ive been telling people Ive been earning a living off my personality disorder for years.

Tony Otte tells News-Journal: 'This is a very exciting time for the city of New Smyrna Beach'
Segment 11
NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- As director of the city's CRA and its economic development director, Tony Otte has his pulse on what's happening in New Smyrna Beach, and in his world it's all wonderful, especially with the NSB Waterfront Loop campaign.
Or so says today's Sunday edition of the Daytona Beach News-Journal, with a story headlined: "Getting the job done: Tony Otte, New Smyrna Beach redevelopment chief."
There's no mention in the story of the impending close of Kmart on State Road 44 or that of the Food Lion on the beachside. And who credits Otte with "Getting the Job Done?"
Is it Mayor Adam Barringer? No, the News-Journal couldn't even get him Friday night for its Saturday story on the Food Lion.
Is it Commissioner and County Council candidate Jim Hathaway? No. He too, has been invisible to the media.
Could it be Tom Williams or Doug Hodson. No, they hurriedly resigned their seats on the CRA board amid questions of conflicts of interest with taxpayer monies during the peak of the holiday season in December just weeks apart from each other.
The credits comes from none other than the Daytona Beach News-Journal itself through the headline writer. Otte, is the only one even quoted in the story written by Valerie Whitney, one of the newspaper's business writers.
The story is the latest in a series of predominantly one-source stories favorable to New Smyrna Beach's CRA. NSB News has received several invoices from the city regarding CRA-funded advertising that has come the News-Journal's way during the holiday season. The Daytona Beach paper was a sponsor of the Christmas tree lighting ceremony on Canal Street.
Otte has declinerd to comment on the sudden resignations of Williams and Hodson or the earlier resignations of fellow CRA commissioners Charles Bellote and Steve Dennis, all within eight months.
The Sunday News-Journal story shows Otte looking at plans for the rehabilitation of the former Pennysaver Building on Canal Street, thanks to a $400,000 CRA grant awarded to developer Bob Wiley, which he doesn't have to pay back. Ironically, the building housed both the Pennysaver and the News-Journal's Southeast Volusia bureau, which produced the regional Daily Journal five days a week.
However, in June 2008, the News-Journal closed its bureaus here, and in DeLand, Deltona, Bunnell and in Tallahassee while the paper under the local ownership of the Davidson family was embroiled in a federal suitsuit it eventually lost to its minority partner, Cox Enterprises of Atlanta. The paper was eventually sold to Halifax Media led by Michael Redding. The Pennysaver, which Halifax Media also acquired in a $19 million fire sale of the News-Journal, was moved down the street.
NSBNews.net was launched April 7, 2008, and was Florida's first 24/7 Internet newspaper.
Otte replaced Keven Fall, who resigned, Nov. 25, 2009, after he was charged with speeding in a beachside neighborhood and driving with an open container of alcohol when he was pulled over by New Smyrna Beach cops two weeks earlier. Fall was paid $65,000 annually.
Otte was hired by City Manager Pam Brangaccio on Jan. 4, 2010, at an annual salary of $64,1888.80. On Oct. 25 of that year, Brangaccio named him CRA/economic development director for $95,414.40. He was paid the same amount in 2011.

21st February 2013
I'm practically surgically attached to my red 'batchel' so when I was invited to the opening of the new Cambridge Satchel Company boutique in London's Covent Garden I was excited to attend and check out the new designs in store. The event itself embodied all that the company was about. Owner and founder Julie was there with her family to welcome guests and talk about the new outpost, complete with bloggers lounge and lending library (the very place I am writing this feature, a week after the event, with hot coffee and snacks. I might just move in).
The store itself has a lovely fun layout – library shelving style – which shows off the products well. Organised by size and colour, if you are browsing for a gift it's a great place to get a firm idea of the possibilities to buy. You can also browse the designs from the recent collaboration with designer Chris Benz and there is an embossing station in the boutique too (transformed into Sophie Ellis Bextor's DJ booth for the night of the event). You can add initials to your new purchase then and there or return later with your satchel for this service – I need to go back with my batchel for the gold lettering soon!
New colours for spring are emerald and sapphire. The blue is a lovely shade that will not only be perfect for spring but judging by the vast sea of royal and navy blues on the catwalk for autumn winter, a great investment for later months too. The fluoro shades will undoubtedly catch your eye – even brighter in the store than they appear on the website. If brighter, bolder colours aren't you thing however, the new Chelsea collection might be for you. A beautifully subdued range of pastel colours, 'Chelsea' is inspired by that very British tradition the Chelsea Flower Show. Julie said of the new line:
"The color palette for our pastel collection has been given a Chelsea Flower Show makeover for 2013. We have introduced a nude and a coral and have changed the pantones of our lilac to a chalky lavender. The Chelsea Flower Show is, like us, quintessentially British and has a great heritage feel."
You can find the store at: 15 Shorts Gardens, Seven Dials, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9AT. Tel: 020 72 407 712

So I picked up this lens yesterday here in shanghai I think i got the only retail copy available until next month and went out to the bund to test it out.first I'm not a birding kind of guy so these shots are really beginner BIF stuff, I've tried with the 300 f4L and 2X TC before but wasnt very happy and had a low keeper rate so never got into it muchI also have to say until now i have been a card carrying life member of the Tamron Hate Club.Some initial feelings on the lensbuild is very solid It feels like a 100 f2.8L IS macro on steroids, lots of plastic but the good sort.tolerances feel tight and precisezoom ring is too tight for my taste and it has way too long of a throw (this could have been reduced by at least 50% IMO, hopefully it will loosen up over time. The nikonian direction is a minor annoyance but i've shot both nikon and canon so its far from a deal breaker for me. Perhaps they made the zoom too stiff to reduce potential for zoom creep, its very very stiff initially off the 150 mark going up and less stiff from 600 going down. Balance on the 5D feels a little front heavy (I think a 1D body will have perfect balance with this lens), I wasn't shooting with any kind of strap just carried it loose either by the camera grip or by the tripod foot which i had turned up to the top so it didn't get in the way of trying to zoom.The focus ring is great really smooth and fast.first thing i had a problem with was it wouldn't focus at all, I thought oh great here we go farrrkking tamron, but i went into my menus and turned on continue to focus when impossible setting (cant remeber the exact words and too lazy to check) which i had off and this seemed to clear that up.unfortunately the day was really crappy lots of contrast leaching smog, light rain drizzle so i teste dout the the weather sealing combo of the 5Dmk3 and this lens a little as i had no protection for the camera or lens so they got a little wet. nothing major though I didn't feel the rain was heavy enough to need an umbrella.the smoggy hazy sky made trying to get focus on white birds quite difficult especially when they were backlit but the lens tracked exceptionally well. I tried it in spot (epic fail) switched to zone and realised i need more practice before i try that again with fast moving birds so put it in area and just left the AF in the hands of canon's AF engineers.anyway here are some shots I got, I don't use burst still just single shot silent and all shots are timed, back button focus and Dof button for engaging servo.
some more
I am not going to do the test of dropping the Canon 300mm 2.8 and comparing it with dropping the Tamron from the same height. Anybody volunteering for that?
Strangely enough, this is me making sway towards the 300 f/2.8 II over the Tamron...
Quote from: adhocphotographer on February 25, 2014, 11:21:08 AMStrangely enough, this is me making sway towards the 300 f/2.8 II over the Tamron...As a general rule, if you can afford the 300/2.8, you're probably not the target market for the Tamron. Even if you need a zoom, I see the 100-400 & 300/2.8 + 2xTC as a better setup than the Tamron alone. Of course you don't get all of that stuff for 1069$.
Build qualityIf you think that the Tamron won't survive a fall, don't drop it. (Mine is now at the end of a Black Rapid Strap plus additional safety strap). But, how strong is the 100-400 L? Well, mine was attached to my 7D when sitting in a passenger seat, with the 7D between my knees and the lens pointing down. The camera slipped and the lens hit the floor from a height of about 20 cm, flat on to the front of the hood. That small jolt was enough to break the USM motor. The 100-400 is reported to have cases of bearing failures. I am not going to do the test of dropping the Canon 300mm 2.8 and comparing it with dropping the Tamron from the same height. Anybody volunteering for that?

SACRAMENTO - Nevada County's beloved South Yuba River State Park is now officially off the list of California state parks slated for closure.
State Parks Executive Director Ruth Coleman confirmed the park will remain open, after Nevada County leaders and residents rallied in opposition to the park's closure.
More than 10,000 signatures were submitted at the state Capitol by a large contingent of county residents, including representatives from the South Yuba River Citizens League and Grass Valley Charter School.
Last week, the Nevada County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a letter to State Parks officials supporting the department's plan to start charging for parking at Bridgeport - a highlight of the South Yuba River - to generate revenue for the popular park.
"I believe this makes the running of the park more sustainable," California State Parks District Superintendent Matt Green said of the plan. "We needed to find some way to extend our fee base to pay for the high cost of staffing."
In announcing the decision to remove South Yuba River State Park from the list, Coleman credited Nevada County's supervisors, state parks officials, SYRCL and Grass Valley Charter School students for focusing their passion for the parks into a constructive plan to keep them open.
Green indicated that there is still a considerable funding gap with Malakoff Diggins State Park and it currently remains on the closure list.
Malakoff and South Yuba state parks were on the closure list when the California Department of Parks announced it would close 70 parks throughout the state in May of 2011.
Since then, the parks department has pulled nine parks off the list, said Roy Stearns, deputy director of communications for the parks department.
SYRCL helped generated much of the support for the county's state parks, originally assigning a goal of 5,000 signatures during a Dec. 12 town hall event attended by more than 400 community members.

The neighborhoods in Buffalo where the most young people are unemployed typically also host the city's biggest employers.
To connect young people ages 16 to 24 with jobs that could be literally right around the corner, a team of executives from one of the world's largest technology companies is lending the city its expertise – for free.
Mayor Byron W. Brown on Tuesday welcomed five innovators from IBM, who over the next three weeks will interview employers and agencies that work with young people to come up with a detailed action plan, which will be presented May 23.
"What we want to get at is, what are the unique, specific issues here, so we can come up with a collective recommendation based on our years of experience and our industry knowledge," said Sunil Murthy, an IBM business unit executive based in Cupertino, Calif.
In an event in Brown's City Hall office, Murthy told about 50 representatives of agencies that are in some way involved in helping young people find jobs to be honest and direct about the problem during their interviews with the team from IBM.
Four hundred cities worldwide applied for a competitive "Smarter Cities" grant from IBM over the last three years, and Buffalo was one of 100 that won.
IBM is donating $400,000 in services to the city through the program, which is its largest philanthropic effort. Executives from all over the world drop whatever projects they are working on and travel to the winning cities to help them solve problems.
"We're not bringing a set of packaged IBM products or services," said John DiMarco, a Buffalo native who oversees Smarter Cities projects in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. "We're not going to hand over a software product for the mayor to use."
The city chose youth employment as the problem the IBM team would tackle.
Brown said he doesn't want young people to be left out of the building boom that is going on downtown, from the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus to new downtown hotels. He said if young Buffalonians have jobs, they will be less likely to move elsewhere.
"When we look to the future of the community, people say our young people are our future," Brown said. "This is just another attempt out of many, many things that we do to make a meaningful investment in our youth. Unemployment is a concern; youth unemployment is always higher."
The city said the unemployment rate for young people varies across the city but can be worse in neighborhoods where there are large employers. In the Buffalo Promise Neighborhood, a one-mile area in the northeast corner, residents are often surveyed.
"One of the driving things we keep hearing, over and over, is we need to find opportunities for these youth," said Kenya Hobbs, Buffalo Promise Neighborhood community engagement specialist.
The Buffalo Public Schools have 6,000 high school students enrolled in career and technology training, and while the program has had some success, more opportunities to give students work experience before they graduate is necessary, said program director Kathy Heinle.
"I think this is going to be great, Smarter Cities, to put all the pieces together," she said. "We've got kids that need work experience."
IBM teams have addressed such things as public safety in Baltimore, service delivery in Guadalajara, Mexico, and transportation in Nice, France.
Visiting Buffalo for the next three weeks are IBM's chief technologist, Yu Kit Lee,who is based in Malaysia, and executives from Australia and California.

I started bowling in a league more than 35 years ago. It was a pretty simple evening for me. Just show up, bowl three games and make your way home. Of course I had to put up with a few snide remarks from fun-loving teammates concerning the quality of my game. Still, it was no muss, no fuss.
When the city tournament rolled around, it was more of the same. Bring your ball, toss it down the alley - and again, after withstanding the barbs, it was homeward bound. It never occurred to me that some people had to put in some serious time behind the scenes so that I could enjoy a few hours of leisure recreation, worry free.
That all changed when I was asked to become an officer in the Tiffin Men's Bowling Association. I did just that and found out there are guys who do a lot of work that goes largely unnoticed and certainly underappreciated so that others can simply show up and bowl.
This afternoon the members of the Tiffin Men's Bowling Association will hold their fall meeting to set the wheels in motion for this season's city tournament. I'd like to take this opportunity to sing the praises of some dedicated people.
When I became an officer some 20 years ago, there were a handful of gentlemen who were at the core of the association. Guys like John Brickner, Dick Gabel, Jim Ruess, Dick Houk and Ron Yentzer were at every meeting and many of them will be present today. They listened to suggestions, added a few of their own and made sure the tournament would be administered faithfully and fairly. They wanted no credit for what they were doing. The love of the game made them eager to help promote the sport in any way they could.
Only two positions within the association are paid positions. No one is going to get rich serving in either spot, but a hard working individual is needed to make things run smoothly.
For as long as I can remember the position of treasurer has been handled by Mike Kisabeth. This is the man who handles all the money from dues to entry fees. He also signs the checks. It was always fun to attend a meeting and listen to his treasurer's report. I can honestly say that his report was never approved unanimously. Though that may sound like a condemnation of his mathematical ability, nothing would be further from the truth. If Ron Yentzer was there, the approval would be one vote short of unanimous as the smiling Yentzer would let anyone know that he didn't like anything to be unanimous.
If Yentzer was not there someone would cast the dissenting vote, again with a chuckle. If no one did so, the vote would still not be all inclusive. That's because Kizzy himself would abstain from voting. He didn't think it was right to vote on his own proposal. For the record, nary a penny has ever been unaccounted for. Mr. Kisabeth is still serving in the position of association treasurer. Thanks, Mike.
Two secretaries have been in office over the years I have been involved with the organization. The first was Kris Klopfenstein. The second and current association secretary is Steve Steinmetz Sr.
These two men have served with distinction. The secretary has to deal with all the paperwork and believe me it's a lot. From USBC dues forms, to entry blanks for the city tournament, not to mention all the forms required to allow local bowlers to receive awards, the secretary's job is huge. Dealing with controversies is also part of the job description. Both of these guys have done masterful jobs.
As for the rules used in the city tournament, they have been revised over the years. The association members are always willing to listen to suggestions for improving the tournament. Some are dismissed after discussion while others become law. For example, at many tournaments doubles and singles are rolled in that order. In Tiffin singles are first. The explanation is that if doubles are first and a person's partner shows up late they both end up being penalized. By bowling singles first, more time is allotted for a bowler to show up for his doubles competition and the only person he hurts by being late is himself.
The fall meeting for the Tiffin Men's Bowling Association is this afternoon at 1 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus Hall on Perry Street. If you are a member of the association, come on down. The primary purpose of the meeting is to plan for the city tournament and the officers will be glad to listen to any comments you might have. The added bonus of seeing me might make the trip worthwhile All right, I am going to be there, but come on out anyway!
If you see Mike or Steve, thank them for the great job that they continue to do every year. They deserve the plaudits and will appreciate the comment.

Ark. House panel takes up voter ID bill
A House panel is taking up legislation that would require Arkansas voters to show photo identification at the polls before they could cast a ballot.
The House State Agencies and Governmental Affairs Committee on Wednesday was expected to consider the voter ID bill proposed by Republican Sen. Bryan King of Green Forest. The Senate approved the measure last week.
King's proposal would only take effect when there's funding for the state to provide IDs free of charge to voters who don't have driver's licenses. It would also exempt voters who live in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities.
Arkansas law currently requires poll workers to ask for identification, but voters are not required to show it.

This vibrant Mexican table sauce is the preferred companion to barbecue south of the border. Mexican salsas come in a dazzling variety—from the simple salsa frescas of northern Mexico to the robust roasted-chili-and-vegetable salsas of Oaxaca and the Yucatán. Mexican salsa inspired many of the new American fruit salsas, popularized by cutting-edge chefs at trendy restaurants and served with simple grilled poultry and seafood.

TIPTON - Why can't Penn State be Wisconsin in basketball, or Gonzaga for that matter?
The Nittany Lions don't have much tradition, with only four NCAA Tournament appearances in 22 years and just five since 1965. But the thing about tradition is it's never too late to start one.
"I completely agree with that," Nittany Lion coach Patrick Chambers said Monday night during a basketball boosters event at DelGrosso's Amusement Park.
"I think you can start in 2013 and have a great basketball tradition. I'm a new coach, so there's new ways, new things, new environment, new culture, we're recruiting different players."
Penn State can't bank on a rich tradition, but then again neither could Wisconsin or Gonzaga in the mid-1990s. In less than 20 years, those two programs went from NCAA afterthoughts to legitimate national players year in and year out.
Wisconsin didn't make the NCAA Tournament from 1947 until 1994, but the Badgers have gotten there 17 times since '94, including the past 15 years. Gonzaga never made the tournament until 1995 but also has been there 15 consecutive years.
Those two programs are the exceptions rather than the norm. But if anything they should give places like Penn State hope that just because the past hasn't been all that great, it doesn't mean the future can't be bright.
"You can definitely build tradition," PSU point guard Tim Frazier said. "Those [teams] started and they made it to the tournament, made great runs in the tournament, and people are always going to remember that. But you've got to do it consistently.
"I think we have a great coach to do that, and we're getting players that can do that."
The Gonzaga comparison to Penn State isn't exactly apples to apples because that program has always played in a small conference where it has been able to maintain big-dog status. That's much, much harder to do in the Big Ten.
But Wisconsin has done it in the Big Ten.
It's not like the Badgers lure the best recruits in the country, plus, like Penn State, they don't have a fruitful backyard of high school talent within the state. Badgers coach Bo Ryan has to go into other teams' recruiting hotbeds and steal players, which is what Chambers and Penn State will have to do.
It's unrealistic to think PSU can achieve the kind of recruiting success that traditional powers Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State have enjoyed. But again, if a program like Wisconsin can get the job done under not-so-different circumstances, why can't Penn State?
"Obviously he has his formula," Chambers said of Ryan's methodical style of play and ability to recruit players to that system. "We're recruiting different players."
So the real answer would seem to be more about coming up with a unique style that's difficult to duplicate and prepare for but can be sustained over time as long as the strategy remains the same.
"I think we're doing it," Chambers said of creating that kind of style. "I think we're one of the hardest-playing teams in the Big Ten. So if we can continue to play hard and get some talent and get them to play hard, I think you've got a special formula there."
Sounds a lot like what Pitt has done over the years. The Panthers emerged as a national power basically by outworking and outhustling everyone, even when they didn't always have as much talent on the court as some of their former Big East opponents.
"I totally agree with that," Chambers said. "Jamie [Dixon] and Ben [Howland], they beat you up, they beat you down."
The toughness and hustle parts of the comparison to Pitt are true, but as Chambers noted, "They play a little bit slower than I want to play."
Chambers told the crowd Monday night that his goals are to change the mindset, culture and environment in the PSU program. In a lot of ways he sounded exactly like how Pittsburgh Pirates officials did for the past 20 years.
Chambers said he recently had lunch with Pirates president Frank Coonelly and expressed how he believes the PSU basketball program is on the verge of turning things around, just like the Bucs have done this year.
"I said to Coonelly, 'I think we can be the next Pirates,'" Chambers said.
How about the next Wisconsin?
"I definitely think that we can get to that level of consistency," Chambers said. "Wisconsin didn't get there for a while, now they're getting there every year."
Frazier has already been to one NCAA Tournament (in 2011), and if he can lead the program back there his senior year, that will be a good start to the kind of tradition Penn State is hoping to build.
"I want to be able to come back years from now to Penn State," Frazier said, "and see the tradition getting better and the guys wanting it and telling the guys, 'I was in your shoes. I was one of the first to start it.'"

GLASGOW -A local man was arrested after leading state troopers on a Thursday night chase that began at the Mahoning County border and ended near his home in Madison Township.
Lucas J. Hall, 34, Alderlick Road, was charged with burglary after he was found in his father-in-law's locked home, which is located in the same vicinity on McCormick Run Road.
The chase began after 9 p.m. near the border between Mahoning and Columbiana counties, when a trooper from the Canfield post of the Ohio Highway Patrol reportedly tried to stop a speeding motorist who was driving south on state Route 11. The driver is believed to be Hall.

Morning Journal/Patti Schaeffer
Troopers from the Canfield and Lisbon posts of the State Highway Patrol inventory the contents of a Dodge Caravan Sport which was involved in a chase that began on state Route 11, when Trooper Michael Vitullo tried to pull the vehicle over for a speeding violation just north of the Mahoning-Columbiana county line, and ended on Aderlick Road in Madison Township. After the van was abandoned, the driver, believed to be Lucas J. Hall, fled on foot and was thought to be heading across a field to this father-in-law's house on McCormick Run Road. Hall was eventually taken into custody at that house. Troopers were also assisted in the search for Hall by Officer Chris Albert and his K-9 Hero.
The chase continued into Columbiana County, with the vehicle getting off at the West Point exit and continuing south onto state Route 45 before turning onto Glasgow Road, which leads to Alderlick and McCormick Run roads.
The patrol declined to issue much in the way of details until the trooper completes his report, but Allen Haueter, chief deputy of the county sheriff's office, said Lucas abandoned his vehicle at some point after turning off of Route 45 and apparently continued on foot to his father-in-law's home.
The sheriff's office was asked by the highway patrol at 9:40 p.m. to assist in the search, and deputies went to the McCormick Run Road home but no one answered the door.
Deputies were then called to Hall's home on Alderlick Road, where they spoke with the father-in-law, William A. Leach, who said Hall had called the home several times from Leach's residence. He knew this because the phone had caller ID. Leach said his house was locked and Hall did not have his permission to be there.
Investigators returned to Leach's house but were still unable to reach anyone inside. At 1:24 a.m., an unarmed Hall finally came to rear door but refused to come out and went back inside. This occurred several more times before he surrendered at 1:42 a.m.
Meanwhile, the sheriff's office called out its special response team after the highway patrol reported Hall may be armed because troopers found an empty holster in his vehicle. Haueter said Hall surrendered before the SRT arrived.
Upon further investigation, deputies found a rear window had been knocked from its track at the Leach residence, but nothing appeared to be missing.
Haueter said the highway patrol found a small amount of marijuana in Hall's possession.

Ideological Continuity and the Organization of Anti-Socialist Propaganda in the Danish Business Community, 1945-1974Lund, Joachim (, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In Denmark, only minor changes took place in the economic elite after the liberation. Retributions with economic collaborators were dealt with in the legal system, and business managers who had been involved in pro-German political activities during the occupation withdrew to their executive offices and kept a low profile. With Nazism defeated, other ideational forces of integration surfaced as prewar anti-Socialist feelings and activities were invigorated. As an integral part of a general fight against economic regulation and for free trade, anti-Socialism became an important integral factor among Danish business leaders during the immediate postwar years.

Combine the oil, vinegar, herbs, salt, pepper and garlic to make a thick paste, adding more oil, if necessary. Rub the mixture over the tenderloin. Tightly wrap the tenderloin in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days but no less than 2 hours.
When ready to roast, preheat the oven to 450°F. Remove the meat from the marinade an pat dry with paper towels. Roast for 20 minutes. Check with an instant read thermometer. If it registers 125°F, the meat is done to medium rare. For a medium finish, roast an additional 5 to 7 minutes until the thermometer reads 135°F. Remove the roast from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving into 1/2-inch thick slices. Serve with this timesaving Red Wine Sauce.
Red Wine Sauce for Beef
Sauce making time is crunch time when it
comes to bringing food to the holiday table. This rich sauce can be
created two days ahead of time and simply reheated just before serving
with roasted beef tenderloin or standing rib roast.
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 shallots, finely chopped
2 cups full-bodied red wine
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
4 cups beef stock
Salt and pepper, to taste
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the shallots and sauté over medium heat until soft and fragrant. Add the wine and thyme. Increase the heat to high and boil until the wine is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 15 minutes. Add the beef stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so the liquid is at a simmer. Cook for 45 minutes to an hour, skimming off any impurities, until the liquid is reduced to about a cup. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve. Serve immediately or refrigerate for 2 days. Gently reheat before using.

Jill Spisiak Jedlicka knows the future of Buffalo depends on the health of its waterways. As executive director of Buffalo-Niagara Riverkeeper, her mission is to protect the quality and quantity of water, and to ensure public access. Founded in 1989 as Friends of the Buffalo River, Riverkeeper is one of 200 water "keeper" organizations in the world.
Jedlicka, 38, is a native of Western New York. She studied environmental science and business at the University at Buffalo, but her interest in marine ecology may stem from her great-uncle Stanley Spisiak, a maverick in the local clean water movement.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Clean Water Act, which strengthened the federal government's ability to control pollution.
This summer was a breakthrough season for waterfront activities throughout Buffalo-Niagara.
People Talk: How large is our collective waterfront?
Jill Spisiak Jedlicka: Including all the tributaries, we have over 3,500 miles of stream corridor or waterfront. That's both sides of the streams.
PT: Tell me a lesser known fact about the Great Lakes.
JJ: Buffalo is one of a handful of cities in the country that has a western-facing waterfront view. To watch the sunset over the water is a key component to economic revitalization. Most cities do not, especially on the Great Lakes, where a lot of them face east.
PT: Is Riverkeeper considered a preservation group?
JJ: No, but a lot of people automatically assume we are a preservationist group. It depends on the issue. People also find our name misleading, too. They think we just do rivers. For us, we're all about water. Our mission is very clear.
PT: How did you get into water-keeping?
JJ: It was kind of by accident. Every young environmentalist wants to save the world. They want to be a marine biologist or save the rain forest. At some point, the reality sets in that you can't save the world, but you can save a small part. For me, it's my hometown. My family says it's in my blood.
PT: How so?
JJ: My great-uncle Stanley Spisiak was an environmentalist before the term was coined. As far back as the 1940s, he was chasing polluters on the river. He was roughed up and shot at. He invited Lady Bird Johnson to Western New York for a tour of the Buffalo River, and she brought her husband, the president. During the tour, they pulled up a bucket of sludge from the bottom of the river. "This is what your Army Corps of Engineers is dumping in the open lake," my uncle told the president. Johnson's famous reply was: "Those bastards."
Two weeks later, President Johnson signed an executive order prohibiting open-lake dumping of contaminated dredge soils. That's an executive order that exists to this day. I really didn't know Uncle Stanley. He passed away in 1996.
PT: How bad was the Buffalo River?
JJ: In 1967, the Buffalo River was functionally considered dead by the federal government. It caught fire. Nothing lived in the river. There were no fish, no dissolved oxygen, not even the little blood worms that live in the bottom sediments. In the past eight years, it's made significant progress. We've cobbled together more than $70 million for river revitalization.
PT: Where else can we see Riverkeeper's work?
JJ: We're also facilitating sewer pollution work, the Green Infrastructure Demonstration Projects in the Elmwood area. All the runoff funnels into Scajaquada Creek, where you get overflows just like you do down near Woodlawn. You'll see the storm-water planters, the rain gardens and the new porous pavement on Claremont, Clarendon, Windsor, Parkdale and Elmwood. It allows the water to funnel right through.
PT: Where else are you surging?
JJ: Scajaquada Creek. It has really been an orphan stream for a long time, but it flows through two of our most important cultural gems – Delaware Park and Forest Lawn. It starts in Lancaster, flows through Cheektowaga, Depew and gets tunneled underground for three-and-a-half miles before popping back up in a forested area of Forest Lawn. Next year you'll see the completion of the wells on the south end of Hoyt Lake. They will help improve the groundwater flow into Hoyt Lake.
Interestingly, there's an aquifer underneath parts of Forest Lawn and Delaware Park. It was known historically as Jubilee Springs, and people from the city would get their drinking water from Jubilee Springs.
PT: Tell me about your concern for refugee fishermen.
JJ: Not only do they fish, but whatever they catch they consume. For us, that's a concern because they're catching and eating the most contaminated fish, the bottom feeders like carp and bullhead. They don't think about the species. Carp can be a giant fish at 40 pounds. The refugee fishermen fry them up and feed them to their families. The fish are toxic. We've actually gone out with Jericho Road Ministries, hired translators and printed fish consumption advisories in five languages: French, Spanish, Nepali, Burmese and I believe Swahili. We also have one with no words for our illiterate community.
PT: How do you personally celebrate water?
JJ: I have my own rain barrel at my house where I disconnect the downspout to collect rainwater from my roof and use it to water my landscaping. Obviously this summer was challenging. I always get some kind of weird looks from my neighbors. My husband and our two boys are outdoors people. We canoe, kayak. My husband is a fly fisherman.
PT: Do members of your organization spend much time on the water?
JJ: Not as much as I'd like. We're supposed to have a presence on the water and be very visible. I wish we had a boat that worked. We had engine problems this year, but we do have a fleet of 19 bright yellow kayaks.

The National Lawyers Guild (NLG), along with other bar associations and legal groups, expressed profound concern over the rejection of Debo Adegbile to head the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice. In a letter to the 52 Senators who voted against the nomination, the coalition denounced the March 5 vote as detrimental to the legal system that should be protecting our fundamental rights.
As the letter states, "Rather than discussing the merits of Mr. Adebgile's qualifications for the position, which both Republicans and Democrats have agreed are impeccable, the debate on the Senate Floor… was shaped by a smear campaign engineered by the influential Fraternal Order of Police (FOP)."
