KVpnc Problem in Debian Etch
I am trying to setup my OpenVPN Client using KVpnc. After profile is setup I get the following error.
info: "openvpn" started.
I tried adding this to my configuration with no success. This was my search result solution from google search.
management 127.0.0.1 1194
Still haven't found any solution to any of the problems. Tried searching google again but nothing new found. I if anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I know that is isn't my actual configuration because the same configuration works in winodws openvpn gui. Has something to do with the configuration and KVpnc.
Same problem is happening to me on etch. really annoying. command line vpnc also fails, or rather hangs indefinitely while trying to connect.
Identical configuration does work in ubuntu and kubuntu and windows xp. What is the problem, anyone?
Tommy Butler
I haven't worked on the issue since my last post and haven't as of yet got it working but I will try it again and see if I can figure out what is going on. Will keep you updated.
Having similar problems. Distros all SimplyMEPIS, so far 6.0 & 6.5.02, both use KDE 3.5.3 w/ the Dapper (Ubuntu 6.06 repos), soon 7.0 w/ KDE 3.5.8 & Etch repos. Both started w/ KVpnc 0.8.2, the 6.5.02 box was updated to KVpnc 0.9.0, which doesn't help.
The target OpenVPN server has a Win GUI installer & good Mac instructions. I pulled the certificate & config file from there.
Which ver(s). are each of you using?
The KVpnc Handbook is a bad joke, does anyone know where I can find some REAL documentation?

SANTA CRUZ -- Louden Nelson Community Center was covered in fungus on Sunday, more than 200 species in fact.
The community center was home to the 40th annual Santa Cruz Fungus Fair, which puts mushrooms on display in every form imaginable -- from dried spores to photos, T-shirts, books and lasagna heavy with mushrooms.
A table with a microscope was set up for people to examine and identify particular mushrooms they found and brought to the fair.
Edible mushrooms, including the black trumpet and yellow foot, were sold for $12-$20 per pound.
Mushroom ice cream was available from the Penny Ice Creamery.
The fair is organized yearly by the Fungus Federation of Santa Cruz, a group that thrives on the thrill of hunting for mushrooms around the Central Coast and educating folks on the various ways mushrooms are used.
Members such as Shae Moss consider themselves amateur mycologists.
"That means we're a group that likes to pick and study mushrooms," Moss, a federation member for 30 years, explained. "A lot of people go out into the woods and are bored. If you go slowly you'll find mushrooms everywhere. It's fun."
Sunday's fair was highlighted by a standing-room only talk from famed mushroom hunter and author David Arora, who wrote "Mushrooms Demystified."
Richard Lyness, another longtime member of the Fungus Federation, said he enjoys the friendships and good meals that come from hanging out with fellow fungi aficionados.
He said members share everything about mushrooms except where to find the prized chanterelles, an expensive delicacy in the fungus world.
"Mushroom hunting is just one more way for me to be present in this world," Lyness said. "To say it's just a mushroom is an observation that just doesn't compute for me."
Oakland resident and mushroom expert Debbie Viess said many people are "fungi phobic" because many mushrooms are poisonous and it's hard to know if you've come across one that's edible or not.
"Mushrooms are sort of an underserved natural history group," Viess said. "In some countries, they're revered and appreciated. Here in North America they don't get a lot of respect.
"About 25 years ago I was stopped in my tracks by a mushroom. Now it's an obsession."
Fungi experts said the dry winter has taken its toll on the mushroom population by not allowing as many to grow.
The majority of the mushrooms on display at the fair came from Humboldt County, Viess said.

NCPA Experts Available to Discuss Vouchers for School Choice
June 11, 1998
Dallas - The latest developments in the arena of scholarship vouchers for school choice are clear indications that the idea of choice and competition in education pioneered by Children's Educational Opportunity of America (CEO America), will not be going away. Rather, these latest developments indicate educational choice is a trend that may easily become the standard for the future.
Yesterday the Wisconsin Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the expanded parental school choice program that includes religious schools as options for parents. The program currently assists more than 4,000 low-income students with half-tuition scholarships to attend more than 110 elementary and high schools in Milwaukee.
Tuesday, CEO America Board Member and Founder John T. Walton joined with a group of businessmen in New York to announce plans to raise $200 million for a national voucher program that would permit at least 50,000 inner-city public school children to attend parochial and other private schools over the next four years.
"What's happened is a clear sign that what CEO America has believed in and has been working for over the last six years is indeed what parents, children and the public want," said Fritz Steiger, president of the Bentonville, Arkansas-based CEO America. "They want a choice in education. The Wisconsin Supreme Court says they have a right to that choice and the hundreds of millions of dollars being poured into these programs shows that school choice scholarship vouchers are in high demand."
Considered the leader in the school choice movement, since its inception CEO America has helped launch more than 30 programs, representing an investment of more than $50 million, and assisting more than 50,000 children. CEO America was the first non-profit organization ever developed to help expand private voucher programs nationwide. It is the national clearinghouse of information on privately funded voucher programs. In the past year CEO America has teamed with the National Center for Policy Analysis in a joint project to educate America on the issue of school choice.
To learn more about the issues surrounding school choice, or to schedule an interview with a CEO America or NCPA school choice expert, contact Jil Hicks in the NCPA's Dallas office at 972/386-6272 or Joan Kirby in the NCPA's Washington office at 202/220-3082.

I grew up a builder's son and spent a lot of time on jobsites from an early age.
EPA updates residential requirements for WaterSense label
Continuing to build on the success of the WaterSense program, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is making minor modifications to its specification that establishes the criteria for new homes to earn the WaterSense label.
EPA, WaterSense label, residential, new homes, specifications
Continuing to build on the success of the WaterSense program, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is making minor modifications to its specification that establishes the criteria for new homes to earn the WaterSense label.
Based on the increase in WaterSense labeled products now available; the widespread adoption of EPA's Water Budget Tool for landscape design; and the opportunity to easily expand the program to multi-family homes, EPA has proposed several revisions to its WaterSense Single-Family New Home Specification. The proposed changes include the following highlights:
• New units in multi-family buildings would now be eligible to earn the WaterSense label. Individual units in new facilities could earn the label, as long as the common areas of these residential buildings also meet EPA's indoor and outdoor criteria.
• Landscaping requirements would be simplified to focus solely on regionally appropriate landscapes through the use of EPA's Water Budget Tool. This change would remove the option to landscape front yards with 40 percent turfgrass or less and reflects the fact that most builders are using the Water Budget Tool to calculate outdoor landscaping requirements. The Water Budget Tool is easier to access now that WaterSense has developed an interactive online version.
• Additional WaterSense labeled products would be required. With the addition of new product categories eligible to earn the WaterSense label since the original specification was released, this update will require additional products installed indoors and outdoors to be WaterSense labeled, where available.
As with all WaterSense specifications, EPA consulted with builders, manufacturers, utilities, and other stakeholders to develop these revisions and continues to accept comments on the draft. The draft revised specification is posted on the WaterSense website, and the public is invited to comment by May 7, 2012.

During the Dunkirk evacuation in 1940 over 50,000 troops were landed at Margate. The vast majority were landed at Margate Jetty and all had to walk the length of the Jetty to reach the shore at the Jetty entrance. At the Jetty entrance the first troops to arrive handed over any equipment like guns and ammunition they brought back with them. The handing over of equipment was soon to cause congestion on the Jetty and it was soon realised that the large numbers of troops landing and queing were being exposed to enemy air attack. To give a clear path off the Jetty some of the returned items were thrown over the side to keep the Jetty clear and the troops were then allowed to walk off the Jetty without handing over equipment. The items that were thrown over the side were abandond and remained forgotten until they were rediscovered in the 1980's.
It was winter gales following the construction of the breakwater on the Jetty entrance site in 1985/86 that large areas of sand disappeared. This exposed the stumps of the piles of the demolished Jetty entrance which then became ideal ground for mudlark digging. It was hard digging at first because of the iron concretion, but once that layer was out of the way coins were turning up every time the ground was turned over. Many of the coins were Victorian with a few George III and IV. However, digging further out from the piles all this 1930's ammunition started turning up. Most of it was French and British, we even dug up a revolver and we were puzzled by its origin as it was concentrated in a few areas. We tried every avenue to try and find out the origins of our discovery and drew a blank, it was a few weeks later after the discovery while having a conversation with Alf Manning about the discovery that Alf told us the story of what actually happened. We were amazed, but unfortunately by then the sand had recovered the search area and the rest remained buried.
Above is a rough sketch of the area with the position of the Droit House included, the two pairs of five dots that make an X if joined together represent the stumps of the Jetty entrance. The small cross's are the areas were the ammunition was found.Even though we filled up builders buckets with the stuff we did not entirely clear the area and the remaining ammunition still remains buried today.

Desde Dentro de Cuba.

CRISES, MARCHES, PROTESTS, WASTED RESOURCES. By Adis Nuvia Alcolea, Cuba Free Press.
Bayamo.- Cubans, particularly the citizens of Bayamo, search for ways to avoid work so as have time to hunt some measure of relief for their hunger and other needs. These days an incident has occurred that has come in handy to meet such purposes: The case of the rafter child Elian Gonzalez.
From the outset, the lack of information, the ignorance, the state sponsored campaign of disinformation and the lack of resources to corroborate what government agents have broadcast on their radio and TV stations made Cubans think that everyone held the same views on this topic. But upon seeing the propaganda and the politics involved, many later concluded that this incident is nothing but a walking stick on which this government is leaning to avoid falling. The people know that some $20,000,000 have been spent on the current propaganda campaign.
With the shortages of wood and paper, it is incalculable the number of tons and cubic meters of those raw materials that went into the Elian campaign rather than help Cubans facing an ongoing economic crisis, especially the nation's poorest sectors. Thousands of hungry people are meeting each day on the plazas to defend some unknown principles. How many ask themselves why they defend those who are subjecting them to so much misery?

On Tuesday, the United States will face-off against Belgium after advancing for the second time in a row to the "knockout stage" of the World Cup. After the astronomical numbers of Americans watching the Cup during the last round, today's game is hotly anticipated. Less popular among Americans: Washington — as evidenced in both Congress' abysmal polling numbers and at the reaction to last year's shutdown fiasco. No matter what happens on the pitch this afternoon, though, Americans can be proud that the U.S. is actually not number one in the world when it comes to political gridlock. There, our competitors clearly takes the crown.
The winning move in the competition, it seems, is simply not to play: Belgium at the moment doesn't have a head of government. In May, Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo handed in his resignation to King Phillipe after his party lost the most recent round of elections. The government will continue to function while Phillipe's informateur tries to find enough common points between the parties to lead to the appointment of a formateur who will actually form a coalition.
To compare this as best as possible to the American political process, imagine that the Democrats, Republicans, and a smattering of the small independent parties all won enough seats in Congress that none have a solid majority. The head of state — in the case of Belgium, the king; in this fictional version of the U.S. the president — names one person to lead the negotiations among them to find enough common points to have a Speaker of the House and Senate Majority Leader named from among the winning parties. Picture that this is also going on at the same time as the North and South are negotiating governments among the same factions. Also imagine that the two main factions are split on not just language, but whether they want the country to remain a unified whole.
If this sounds difficult, that's because it is. In Belgium, political allegiances are split between Flemish and Walloon — or Dutch and French speakers — corresponding with the north and south of the country. "The electoral system — effectively two elections with separate French-speaking and Dutch-speaking parties appealing to different voters — means at least four parties, and two from each side, will be needed to form a governing coalition," Reuters explained immediately after the May election. Already, Phillipe has had to relieve Bart De Wever of the Flemish separatist N-VA party that won the most seats in Parliament from his role as informateur, replacing him with French-speaking Charles Michel.
The current month-long negotiations pale in comparison to the length of time it took to form the last government. It took a record-breaking 589 days between 2010 and 2011 to form the outgoing tripartate government that Di Ruppo headed until last month. That Belgium managed to actually survive for this long without a government can be explained through the difference that most Europeans see between "the state" and "the government," as Washington Monthly explained last year:
Most Europeans understand "the state" to be the entity that represents a political community sharing a history and constitution, holding a seat at the U.N., and symbolically headed not by the prime minister but by a constitutional monarch or a ceremonial president. The military, the courts, and the administrative bureaucracy are all part of "the state" — and as such are apolitical and insulated from partisan rancor. By contrast, "the government" is the much smaller and more transient group of Cabinet ministers who happen to have support of a parliamentary majority at any time.
The extreme level of federalization in Belgium, where the Flemish and Walloon regions mostly govern themselves, also helped cushion the blow of going that long without a federal government in Brussels, as did the use of a "caretaker government." While the U.S. has no such provision, Congress frequently passes continuing resolutions to keep the government afloat in what could be considered "caretaker budgets." Given the fact that at least Washington can decide on just who is running the show in the halls of power, though, the Belgians have a clear leg-up on the U.S. when it comes to dysfunction.

In his plea for greater sympathy for the homeless victims of German persecutions and for a more liberal immigration policy by the governments of the world in the present crisis, High Commissioner McDonald, speaking before the council of the autonomous body created by the League of Nations, declared:
"The Jewish leaders throughout the world, not only in theory, but in actual practice, give their funds to non-Jews. But I am forced to express the greatest disappointment over the failure of the Christian world to meet responsibilities in this matter. If Christians had done as much as the Jews, there would be no refugee problem today. I feel it necessary to declare this before this governing body which does not contain a single Jewish member."
In the course of his report, Mr. McDonald emphasized the progress of settlement of refugees in Palestine and declared that Palestine is at this time practically the only area offering immediate opportunity for refugee colonization upon an appreciable scale.
Lord Robert Cecil, that great humanitarian statesman, one of the world's greatest champions of peace, chairman of the governing body created by the League of Nations to aid the refugees, stirred the council by an impressive appeal for the permanent solution of the refugee problem "essential for the credit of civilization."
He also pointed out that Germany should aid in this work, saying:
"We feel we have a strong claim on the German government to make easier that part of our work concerned with passports enabling refugees to travel and find permanent homes, and not to stay where they originally fled, and where there is no solution. This trouble, for which we are not responsible, is caused by measures which the German government has seen fit to take. The German government must do something to relieve us of the burden imposed by nothing that we have done.
"Merely providing a solution for the day is no solution. We must provide subsistence to prevent starving, but we must seek a permanent solution."
Very little is asked of the German government-to adjust the problem of passports for the refugees. The German government has created an international problem by violating the human rights of an element of its own population, by setting up false race theories and by inventing all sorts of pretexts for persecuting the Jews. The Nazi "Aryans" wish to be regarded as the "Chosen People," as superior to the rest of the world. They are trying to demonstrate their "superiority" by resorting to acts of barbarism, by uprooting not only the Jews but also Judaism as well as Christianity. The Nazi offensive is directed at Christianity because it sprang from Judaism. Hitlerism is just as grave a challenge to the Christian world as to the Jews. And the answer to Hitlerism must come from the Christian world as well as from the Jews. It is a question of war and peace, of might and right, of darkness and light, of barbarism and civilization. It is the revolt of the hairy ape against civilized man."
High Commissioner McDonald and Lord Robert Cecil are right when they emphasize that the problem of the German refugees is not merely a Jewish problem, but that it should be the concern of the entire civilized world.
Palestine is recognized as the only bright ray of hope in connection with the settlement of refugees. But Palestine can at this time absorb a far larger number of refugees than are admitted there. The great British statesman, Lord Robert Cecil, who has done so much for the rehabilitation of Palestine in the spirit of the Balfour Declaration, should exert his influence in this crisis with the British government to give a more liberal interpretation of the historic Balfour Declaration and the Mandate, to fulfill the sacred pledge made by the British government to the Jewish people. Palestine is prospering now because of the efforts of Jewish labor, of Jewish enterprise and of Jewish investments. There is a shortage of labor in Palestine just now. To keep down Jewish immigration to Palestine at such a time as this, when the country's absorptive capacity justifies a much larger number of immigration certificates than that granted by the government, and when the tragedy in Germany has made thousands of the ablest and the most intelligent Jews homeless; to treat the present situation as normal, to resort to technicalities-all this is hardly in keeping with the world's conception of the fairness of the British people and is not in the spirit of the Balfour Declaration.

I NEVER would've thought to use homespuns with this patterns (too stretchy, I'd think) but I just love the way it looks! So cozy! OK… another one on my "to do list". Thanks for all the inspiration! I love this site!
I love your Drunkard's Path quilt. I've always liked this pattern and homespun fabrics, so to me they look fabulous together. I've been collecting thifted man's plaid shirts, which may end up in a quilt like this. Thanks for sharing.
sorry left wrong email on prev message.
How did the i get there
I just bought a go, and the first die I purchased was the DP. So much easier than my sons "turtle" quilt I made with a DP plastic template to cut around.
Do you know of any other shapes I can make with this die? So far I've made a flying bird, 2 chick types of birds, a basket, 2 types of butterflies and of course the turtle
Thanks for any help,
Best Wisher,
Mary This a beautiful quilt. I have no idea how I stumbled upon your blog but I'm so thrilled I did.Blessings, Cleta
I like your plaid DP. I have done 3 1/2″ DP blocks but I think 7″ ones would be easier. And this would make a great comfort quilt for children. Thanks
Hey Mary…the quilt looks beeyootiful! I have a Go but not the DP dies. How do you sew the curves together…is it hard or do you need a special foot like the Curvemaster?

Have Volkswagen Questions? Ask an Expert Now.
Likely you have a bad ABS module. To be absolutely sure you will have to have a scan tool (Dealership or independent with VAG-COM software) check for communication between the module and the dash unit (diagnostic BUS controller) The flashing light would indicate that the dash is not receiving a signal from the ABS module.
THis would require replacement of the module- which is attached tightly to the ABS pump. On a New Beetle it's a tight fit (as is everything in that engine bay!) and would likely require the pump to be dismounted from it's bracket and the module removed and replaced and coded.

The calendar has now turned to June. School is out and with it comes the season of fun and games. Houseboats, swimming, Little League games and barbecues.
Ah, the summer fun.
But this is a summer — and forgive us if you've read this before — that brings us into another uncomfortable fire season. And based on the thermostat today, it's very likely to be a hot one.
Six years ago, on June 11, the Humboldt Fire began raging through Butte County and lower Paradise. Two weeks later, the Butte Complex fire, started by lightning, ravaged Concow — killing one.
Since that fire, Northern California has not gotten a lot of rain — particularly in the last two years. Last year we were warned of a potentially devastating fire season.
And we're being warned again.
Let's be smart out there. One incredibly dangerous game to play is flicking a cigarette butt out of the car window.
Sure, it's littering and that's bad enough, not to mention that smoking isn't the healthiest of choices — but that's your call.
But what is not your call is to be careless about where one of those butts might land or might be do when you're done. Be careful when doing your yard work. If you have to do it, do it early in the morning. In fact, here are some tips from CalFire:
Mow before 10 a.m., but never when it's windy or excessively dry. Lawn mowers are designed to mow lawns, not weeds or dry grass.
Metal blades striking rocks can create sparks and start fires. Use caution.
Spark Arresters
In wildland areas, spark arresters are required on all portable gasoline-powered equipment. This includes tractors, harvesters, chainsaws, weedeaters and mowers.
Keep the exhaust system, spark arresters and mower in proper working order and free of carbon buildup.
Use the recommended grade of fuel and don't top it off.
Equipment Use
In wildland areas, grinding and welding operations require a permit and 10 feet of clearance. Keep a shovel and a fire extinguisher ready to use.
Don't drive your vehicle onto dry grass or brush. Hot exhaust pipes and mufflers can start fires that you won't even see - until it's too late!
Keep a cell phone nearby and call 911 immediately in case of fire.
To protect water quality, do not clear vegetation near waterways to bare soil. Vegetation removal can cause soil erosion especially on steep slopes.
Always keep soil disturbance to a minimum.

A WIND turbine at the Lecht ski centre and a solar energy project on a Perthshire farm are amongst the increasing number of new independent renewable energy projects.
SmartestEnergy's Energy Entrepreneurs Report 2014, published today, shows that 169 new independent renewable projects of 50kW or more started in Scotland in 2013, up 50 per cent on the number in 2012.
Trade body Scottish Renewables said the rise showed that independent electricity generators, including communities, businesses, farmers and public bodies, were increasingly taking their energy future into their own hands.
Loading article content
The report also shows that not including the six largest power companies, more than £66 million was invested in independent, commercial-scale renewable electricity schemes in Scotland in 2013, generating enough electricity for more than one million homes. It also cites the £11.5 million Loch Carnan Community Windfarm, which is generating profits for reinvestment in South Uist, Benbecula and Eriskay by Storas Uibhist, the community company which led Scotland's biggest land buyout in 2006.

Seattle well-poised for recovery, in some areas, eventually
Published 10:00 pm, Thursday, December 2, 2010
Seattle has some economic advantages over other cities, but its recovery will be uneven and slow, local experts predicted Friday.
"There's going to be the haves and have-nots," Bill Pollard, founding principal of Talon Private Capital, said at the Seattle Institute of Real Estate Management chapter's annual forecast breakfast Friday.
The haves include industries such as software, mobile devices, biotech and global health, according to Pollard and Douglas Howe, president of commercial real estate developer Touchstone Corp.
"Everybody else is going to muddle along," Pollard said.
The good news for Seattle is it is "a talent magnet" for workers in these robust industries and is well-positioned globally, as one of six "global gateway" areas in the U.S., Howe said.
But these robust businesses won't generally be looking for offices in the downtown high-rise buildings, but will want larger spaces that meet new requirements for power, efficiency and infrastructure, Howe said. "That's what's going to drive the next cycle in commercial real estate."
Howe said he didn't expect significant new office construction until 2013 to 2016.
The apartment market?
"I think we've hit bottom," said Brian Fritz, vice president of development for apartment developer AvalonBay Communities.
Vacancy rates have recovered and rents are starting to, although "we've got a ways to go to get back to where we were," he said. This uptick already has moved developers to break ground on several new apartment projects.
The deadest of the dead appear to be new condominium towers, which were the darling of the boom and have foundered badly since the crash.
"Whether or not we'll see another high-rise condo deal developed in the next four, five years, I doubt it," Fritz said.
For all kinds of developments, developers are wary and, if they want to build, must persuade gun-shy investors and bankers to back their projects.
"We compete vigorously in high-quality projects, high-quality borrowers, sponsors and locations," said Randy Daniels, Northwest regional executive for Bank of America Merrill Lynch Commercial Real Estate. "It falls off dramatically if there's market risk or a secondary location and most importantly is the sponsor is not strong."
In the end, the real estate market really depends on the wider economy.
"We need jobs," Fritz said.
That's where Arun Raha comes in.
"I know it's hard to believe, but the recession officially ended in June of 2009," Raha, chief economist for the State of Washington and executive director of the state's Economic and Revenue Forecast Council, said Friday. "Trust me, I'm a doctor."
But we're climbing out of a big hole, he said. "We lost eight and a half million jobs and we've only made up one million of those. ... We're coming out of the recession really, really slowly as far as jobs go."
The good news? "We aren't going to have a double dip," Raha said, adding: "Of course, anything can happen."
Raha predicted Washington would regain all of its lost jobs in April 2013.
Looking at real estate, Raha said Washington has paid back the future demand it borrowed with the recent homebuyer tax credit "and we're back to moving sideways, which ... is the new up."
He predicted a recovery in the residential market in the middle of next year, with recovery in non-residential construction in 2012.

This Is What Happens When You Try To Make A Basketball Shot From 583 Feet Up
Nowadays, in the NBA, the three-point shot reigns supreme. Players like Kyrie Irving and Stephen Curry are launching them from farther than ever, with insane precision and accuracy. Yet, perhaps not even they could fathom taking a shot from way up in the sky.
Harlem Globetrotter Buckets Blakes recently took World Trick Shot Day to new heights when he climbed the Tower of the Americas in San Antonio, Texas to take a shot from 583 feet in the air. With the help of a scientific phenomenon known as the Magnus effect, this otherwise impossible shot became possible…
Now that's taking trick shots to new heights. I don't think there are many NBA stars who could make that one!

Allie Wipf has proven to be a player the College Redwoods women's basketball team can rely on.
However, as she recovers from a high-ankle sprain, the Lady Corsairs are trying to find a way to fill the void.
"Allie's a player that can do a lot of things for you out on the court," said CR head coach Doug Oliveira. "And when you take a player like that out of the lineup, that means that workload falls on a lot of other players who have to step up, and we haven't done that very well."
With Wipf, the Corsairs started the season 4-2, averaging 68 points per game while holding their opponents to 64.
Wipf was averaging a double-double with 13.4 points and 11 rebounds per game through her first six games this season, building on her impressive resumé.
Last year, Wipf was a first-team all-Golden Valley Conference selection who averaged 15.5 points and 11.9 rebounds per game, recording a double-double in 19 of CR's 25 games. She finished the year as the No. 11 ranked rebounder in the state.
In the six games since Wipf's injury Nov. 18, however, the Corsairs haven't been the same team.
CR is just 2-4 without her in the lineup, scoring five less points per game (63) on offense and allowing 11 more points per game (75) on defense.
"We have missed Allie in two significant areas," Oliveira said. "Rebounding and leadership. She is outstanding in those areas and it's been a challenge for us out there without her."
Wipf is scheduled to have an MRI on her ankle this Saturday, and could potentially be cleared to play as soon as Monday, when the Corsairs play next at the Jocelyn Mancebo Classic at Delta College in Stockton.
However, with her limited mobility for the past few weeks as she recovered with physical therapy, it is unlikely she would be in game shape to jump right back in --just don't tell her that.
"I can't wait to get back out there," Wipf said. "It's been really hard to just sit by and watch. As soon as I'm cleared to play I want to be out there. I can't guarantee I'll do much because I'll probably be out of shape, but I'm not going to baby myself. I just have to push past it."
Realistically, coach Oliveira is just hoping to have her back for the start of Golden Valley Conference play Jan. 12.
"When she went down, nobody knew whether or not she was done for the year," Oliveira said. "We moved on as if she was done, but it's great news that she isn't. In a way, it's actually been good for us to play without her because it's forced some other people to step up in roles they wouldn't have had to otherwise. But, it's certainly going to be nice to have her back."

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- It's been an annual ritual for the past umpteen years. During one of our family visits, my brother-in-law invariably produces the latest trinket sent to him by Boston Beer ( SAM), a company that he has faithfully owned since the 1995 IPO. He receives these because he is an "owner" and these gifts seem to always be labeled with that very word. This year he received a nice hat that has, of all things, a bottle opener on the brim. He takes the "owner" thing somewhat seriously, and has remained a loyal shareholder all these years. In his view, he is part owner (albeit a very small part) of the company. That's a mindset that has been lost among many investors, partially the victim of too much information and a fast-paced market; partially the victim of fear fueled by extremely volatile market swings in recent years. Investors have also been told that buy-and-hold just does not work anymore. Don't tell that to my brother-in-law; his Boston Beer shares have compounded at more than 12% per year since the IPO, much better than the S&P 500 (5.5%), Russell 2000 (6.5%), and S&P Small Cap Index (8.9%). While the path has not been straight up for Boston Beer, the company has not only prospered, but is also one of the only survivors of the publicly traded microbrewery fever of the late 1990's. By 1997, there were a dozen or so publicly traded microbrewers, with a collective market capitalization of about $400 million. At this writing, by my count, there's only one other survivor; Craft Brew Alliance ( BREW), formerly Redhook. Boston Beer was the best of the bunch, and those that have retained the "owner" mentality have done well. It has taken patience, for sure, and the ability to ignore all of the noise; a tall order these days. SAM data by YCharts
It's not easy to maintain the buy-and-hold mentality with so many pundits telling investors that you can't be successful unless you are trading. It takes patience, some vision and an iron stomach to ignore all of the noise. When McDonald's ( MCD) stumbled in the 2000-2003 era, many wrote off the name, suggesting that its best days were behind it. Performance since then tells a much different tale. MCD data by YCharts
But, it's not just the big names that are candidates for long-term ownership, as Boston Beer has demonstrated. There are a number of smaller, off the radar names that have had excellent track records. National Beverage Corp. ( FIZZ), the maker of Shasta and Faygo soft drinks, and other off-brand products, has returned an average of 12.5% since going public in 1991. It might not be a company that you are familiar with, but it has benefited from the popularity of off-brand products, fueled by a rough economy and the growth of "dollar" stores. Another example, J&J Snack Foods ( JJSF), the maker of Icee beverages, Superpretzel soft pretzels, and other food products, has returned an average of 13% per year since going public in 1990. JJSF data by YCharts
What do all of the aforementioned names have in common? They are all consumer products companies that have historically maintained good balance sheets, and in most cases, a solid brand awareness. They have all been worthy of a buy-and-hold strategy, and have rewarded their shareholders well. There are others out there, worthy of owning in the long-term sense, as an "owner", and not a temporary steward. Buy-and-hold is not dead. Twenty years from now, my brother-in-law will no doubt still hold his Boston Beer shares, and a couple boxes full of related "owner" trinkets. At the time of publication the author held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned. This article is commentary by an independent contributor, separate from TheStreet's regular news coverage.

Chi's Sweet Home - Pet Paradise (GN 4)
Title: Chi's Sweet Home - Pet Paradise
Volume: GN 4
Pages: 146
Distributor: Vertical
Release date: 2010-12-21
Suggested retail price: $13.95
Age rating: ALL
Youhei's actions at the end of volume three have motivated his parents to look for a new home for their kids. Chi is moving to a new address; someplace where cats can play to their heart's content without having to worry about nosy managers and mean hungry bully cats.
Moving alone will be something of an adventure for Chi. While the Yamadas can handle changing their environment now and then, for a kitten home means much more than just a place to sleep. When the old apartment starts to disappear, suddenly Chi starts losing all of her favorite toys and nap spots. And what are all those boxy things? Why are they all stacked so high up? And what's up with all the noise around them? Are there dogs behind all of this?!?

LIFEBOAT crews in Scotland rescued 1007 people last year, saving 29 lives, new figures have revealed.
Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) lifeboats attended 996 "shouts", launching nearly three times a day to attend emergencies during 2013.
These included the Super Puma helicopter which crashed off Shetland in August claiming four lives, when RNLI crews from Aith and Lerwick gave assistance.
Loading article content
Scotland's busiest station was Broughty Ferry, near Dundee, where the charity's two lifeboats were called out 105 times, half in darkness. Of the 32 people rescued, five people's lives were saved.
The second busiest station was Arbroath, with 53 shouts, one more than Oban.
Andy Clift, the RNLI's regional operations manager for Scotland, said: "These figures illustrate the immense commitment exhibited by the RNLI's volunteers.
"Day after day they are available to respond to emergencies along the coastline and out to sea, and night after night they are also available with a large proportion of shouts taking place in darkness.
"They also spend a considerable amount of time in carrying out exercises and training to ensure their skills are up-to-date."
Queensferry was the busiest inshore lifeboat station with 49 shouts and 128 people rescued.
RNLI volunteers at Tobermory spent 950 hours on shouts, by far the longest time at any of Scotland's 47 lifeboat stations.
One of those incidents was a 31-hour operation on June 14/15 when a cargo ship ran aground on Mull.
There has been a decrease in recent years in the number of fishing boats that require RNLI help, with 115 incidents last year, down from 122 in 2012, however, more members of the public have required help.
Mr Clift said: "During stormy weather, the RNLI urges the public to avoid areas, whether they be a harbour, pier, promenade or cliff top, where they could get swept off their feet."
It is the first time since 2008 that there have been fewer than 1000 shouts for the RNLI in Scotland.
The busiest year was 2009 with 1121 launches and the record number of people rescued was in 2012 with 1055.

Hello everybody, and Happy Holidays! Time for this month's Scraps Of Darkness Reveal, and the December Kit-A Long December is just so very Winterlicious!! If you are looking for something to do while staying warm inside, paper crafting is the perfect hobby to turn to, and the Scraps of Darkness Kits come right to your door, so you don't even have to get out to go shopping~so right up my alley as the cold weather kicks in ;)
This next project is a canvas piece that I created using this month's Creativity Add On. I did use a 12 x 12 canvas that I had, because I had some Dusty Attic Pieces that I wanted to use and they were too large for the smaller canvas. The Creativity Kit had these crazy cool Angelina Fibers in it, and as soon as I saw them, I knew what I wanted to do with them. I am a huge Chronicles of Narnia Fan. I have loved the books since I was around 11 years old, and have read them all numerous times. When they came out with the first movie "The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe" I had to go see it, and it was so amazing to watch one of my favorite books brought to life. I chose to scrap Jadis, the wicked Queen of Narnia, because those fibers reminded me so much of how it would be "Forever Winter In Her Heart".
I wish you could see this piece IRL~those Angelina Fibers look so yummy and the texture is amazing~
I hope you have enjoyed all my Winter themed work from this month's kit. I appreciate you stopping by, and hope that you and yours have a wonderful Holiday Season! Find something warm to do, grab a cup of hot chocolate and enjoy life! Hugs till the New Year! ~Renea

Ocala, Florida (PRWEB) April 27, 2013
Florida based A Cut Above Boutique, Inc and it's related website at http://www.ShopACutAbove.com have recently expanded their store and internet operations center. Located at 1925 SW 18th Court, Suite 104/105 in Ocala, this will be their third move in less than two years each time doubling their size. The clothing boutique featuring young contemporary women's dresses, tops, jewelry and accessories will now be headquartered in a nearly 3,000 square foot space to help accomodate the rapidly growing store.
The store and its website have an ever growing online presence with over 30,000 Facebook fans and orders delivered to every state in the country (including Alaska). The expansion was overdue says Brittney Denman, the 25 year old Ocala native who founded her company less than two years ago starting with just two dresses. "We're excited to be able to provide more merchandise, floor space, and even dressing rooms to our wonderful local shoppers. The biggest factor in our decision to expand, however, was the necessity to efficiently process the large number of orders from our online shoppers. The internet department will now have a dedicated on site operations center with inventory and staff both tripling in the upcoming months."
With everything priced at $50 or less the boutique draws trendy but budget minded customers, proving that being fashionable doesn't always come with a high cost.

In addition to the question of whether Christians are justified in getting tattoos and piercing, I'd like also to keep in mind other types of permanent procedures that some would go as far to suggest is mutilation.
Appearances have evolved even in many Christian churches as they have in secular society. It's not for me to suggest what is right or wrong when the apparel remains modest and gender specific as the Bible states. But what about fashion that is relatively permanent like tattoos and piercing along with more severe disfigurements? Some argue that our flesh will perish anyway and it's what is inside that God sees and matters. If this were true then I don't believe the Bible would take the opportunity to discuss modest appearance and dress in various scriptures. The truth is our outward appearance is so often a manifestation of what's inside of us.
Opponents of Christians tattooing and piercing often remind us of the fact our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and are ours only on loan and belong to God. I have no doubt Satan has an influence on people who grossly distort the bodies God has made for them.
So what is it the Bible has to say regarding tattoos and piercing?
Tattoos and piercing during the Old Testament days were done in pagan tradition and to mark slaves. Under the law in the Old Testament people were instructed in Leviticus 19:28, "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the LORD." (See Deuteronomy 14:1 as well). Though we no longer live under the law of the Old Testament, many question if this now justifies various piercing in the flesh if not done out of pagan tradition.
In Exodus 21:6 the Bible tells us if a servant wanted to remain servant to his master he would have his ear pierced as recognition that he will be so forever. In Genesis chapter 35 Jacob was told to "put away the foreign gods" among the people and to cleanse themselves. In verse 4 this included taking out their earrings from their ears.
The choice to permanently pierce or mark your body is your own. The Bible states in 1 Corinthians 10:31, "Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." I've known Christians who've gotten tattoos representing their Christian faith. I don't have a solid opinion on this matter—not that I'm any authority anyway. I too have tattoos and my ears pierced which were done during a time when my walk with the Lord was miniscule.

And here's a few more points to consider:
1. What would that animal have been doing on that island? It is too small and barren a place to support an animal that large, and it's too far to swim from any large land masses. The only time it could have gone there would have been during one of the ice ages when there was thick ice from Eurasia to Franz Josef Land, but then why would it have walked all that distance northwards up into an icecap where the was no food? It would have gone southwards away from the ice, not into it.
2. How are these people sailing around there in clear water in October? The whole area was locked in ice at that time.
3. Why would an expedition be sent out when the arctic Winter is getting ready to start? Expeditions are sent out in the Spring or Summer.
4. Why is there no record to be found of the company Polarneft Oil?
5. Franz Josef Land isn't as isolated as these people would have you think. It is populated, with various meteorological and military installations scattered here and there. Plus, there are plenty of tourism companies that send tours up there. That island has been well-surveyed (it's notable for having the highest point in the archipelago) and visited often.
6. Where is the helicopter coming from? There's no helipad on the ship.
7. Why does the creature have the exact same name and exact same appearance as a creature from the video game?
8. Unless you believe in spontaneous generation, there would need to have been a whole population of these creatures. The remains of giant quadrupeds would be rather noticeable. Where are they?

Josh Brookes's last gasp pass on Shane Byrne at the final corner scores him both the win and the British Superbike Championship lead; Lowes beats Hill to third.

CLICK HERE to view the full Race 2 Results.
Josh Brookes has nosed into the lead of the MCE British Superbike Championship standings after sealing victory in race two at Assen with a daring last corner pass on Shane Byrne.
An exciting race that built to a two-way crescendo between long-time leader Byrne and Brookes behind him, the pair always looked set for a final lap exchange around the Dutch circuit, scene of several iconic last gasp passes in the past.
And so it would prove, Brookes lining up Byrne throughout the final lap to run out wide around Ramshoek to give him the inside run into the final corner Geert Timmer chicane. Though Byrne attempted to cut back inside to get a better run to the finish line, he found himself baulked by backmarker Aaron Zanotti.
As such, Brookes was able to hold on for a win that puts him two points ahead of Byrne in the overall standings, the Assen winners in turn now comfortably ahead of the luckless Tommy Hill.
Having failed to finish the first race due to a freak incident on the grid, Hill had originally done enough to secure pole position for race one, only to be demoted back to sixth when a rival team submitted a protest regarding tyre warmers not being removed early enough.
It would prove a fairly crucial moment, Hill struggling to make his way through the busy chasing pack. Indeed, though he would get up to third place, he was already too far behind the leaders to make an impression.
His bad day would be compounded further when Alex Lowes also launched a last corner pass that nudged Hill onto the gravel trap, demoting him to fourth. It means he is 22 points Brookes with five races remaining.
Behind the top four, Tommy Bridewell came out top of an entertaining scrap for fifth place, the Supersonic BMW rider getting the better of Noriyuki Haga and Michael Laverty, the latter two riders dropping back over the course of the race having been up in the top three during the initial laps.
Haga's biggest rival for the 'Riders' Cup', James Westmoreland kept the Yamaha rider honest in eighth place, while Robbin Harms notched up another top ten finish for Doodson Honda in ninth.
Stuart Easton rounded out the top ten, ahead of Luca Scassa, Barry Burrell, Patric Muff, Chris Walker and Jakub Smrz, the latter scoring Splitlath Redmond Aprilia's first point of the season despite suffering a technical problem on the finish line.

SARATOGA SPRINGS -- Saratoga Reads and SUNY Empire State College will present a screening of the HBO documentary "Unchained Memories: Readings from Slave Narratives" at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 13, at the Empire State College Center for Distance Learning, 113 West Ave.
The film will be followed by discussion led by members of the college faculty.
The screening will kick off a series of events related to this year's Saratoga Reads book of choice, "Twelve Years a Slave" by Solomon Northup.
The material used for "Unchained Memories" dates back to the 1930s, when journalists, under the auspices of the WPA's Federal Writers' Project, conducted thousands of interviews with former slaves who had been emancipated at the end of the Civil War.
"These faithfully transcribed 'slave narratives' are vividly read (acted, actually) here by a host of distinguished performers ranging from Samuel L. Jackson to Oprah Winfrey, from Don Cheadle to Angela Basset, with narration by Whoopi Goldberg," said Sam Graham, editorial reviewer for Amazon.com. "This is a moving record of bitter, weary, yet resilient and quietly proud people living with memories that never would, or could, fade."
The narratives in the film are complemented by archival photographs, period images and music.
The event is open to the public and free. Light refreshments will be served.
For more information about Saratoga Reads and related events, go to www.SaratogaReads.org.

IdeaPad Yoga 13 Design
While the color scheme of the IdeaPad Yoga 13 may be too loud for some, and the flipping to different modes bizarre to many, this Lenovo system has grown to be quite popular as the favorable reviews just keep pouring in. The IdeaPad Yoga 13 is one of Lenovo's top-sellers. It's quite a versatile and practical machine when you think about it. Performance wise, the Yoga 13 stacks up to similarly configured systems. Check out the what this article has to say about the IdeaPad Yoga 13.
As an ultrabook the Yoga is slim, speedy and sleek. The bright orange lid and underside won't suit everyone, but it is certainly striking and will also be available in silver grey. The plastic build isn't as rigid as the metal used in the HP Envy X2, but it still feels robust. The plastic surrounding the keyboard has a faux leather look and feel, but it's not as cheesy as it sounds.
The keyboard itself doesn't require as much pressure as other laptop keyboards to register a keystroke, but it's still comfortable and accurate to type on. The large touchpad successfully replicates the gestures used to control parts of the Windows 8 interface, such as the Charms bar, making it a usable alternative to the touchscreen. Overall the design of the Yoga as a laptop is excellent.

The Solution Provider 500 ranking is based on revenue size, and considers each company's forward-thinking approach to the channel. In particular, the Solution Provider 500 selection panel sought to recognize companies that are building out practices around the data center and virtualization while offering software integration and application development skills. Revenue size is determined by the amount of annual products and services sold over the course of 2011. Companies with no public documentation were required to submit a notarized affidavit attesting to their 2010 and 2011 revenues.
"Our growth can be credited to the dedication of our staff, as we execute our strategy of delivering IP-Convergence solutions," noted Al Saxon, Sr. Vice President for Sales & Marketing at Vision Technologies.

Faculty of Physics University of Warsaw via EurekAlert: Can the passage of time be measured precisely, always and everywhere? The answer will upset many watchmakers. A team of physicists from the universities…
Generally speaking, elegance and simplicity are markers of finding the theoretical path to a grander truth, while messiness or complication is the signifier of having an incomplete or flawed understanding of the issues…
Could an entire bank heist take place at an open bank with no one seeing it? The National Geographic reports:
It's no illusion: Science has found a way to make not just objects but entire events disappear, experts say.
According to new research by British physicists, it's theoretically possible to create a material that can hide an entire bank heist from human eyes and surveillance cameras.
"The concepts are basically quite simple," said Paul Kinsler, a physicist at Imperial College London, who created the idea with colleagues Martin McCall and Alberto Favaro.
Unlike invisibility cloaks — some of which have been made to work at very small scales — the event cloak would do more than bend light around an object. Instead this cloak would use special materials filled with metallic arrays designed to adjust the speed of light passing through.

BWW Exclusive: MARY POPPINS Cast Memories- Q. Smith
As the Broadway production of Mary Poppins comes to a close, we asked current and original principle cast members, as well as current cast members who have been with the show since day one, to share with us some memories and tell us what being a part of the magic has meant to them. Q. Smith, who is the current 'Miss Andrew/Queen Victoria/Miss Smythe', shared:
My favorite memory would be being a part of the 1st National tour and the Broadway company. Mary Poppins has employed so many people all over the world and has taken me to places I never imagined I would go emotionally, artistically, and physically.
I have so many fond memories over the last 4 years. I would have to say one of my favorite memories was sharing a stage with Dick Vandyke in Los Angeles during our Los Angeles run of 3 months. It was surreal! He out danced everyone on stage in one particular number. He kicked higher than anyone! What a dream. He joined us for one night only doing a cameo appearance and it was so much fun! I've only been with the Broadway company 4 months, but if you want a "Broadway" answer, I'd have to say my favorite memory thus far was one night I had a pair of free tickets to our show and my friend's cancelled at the last minute and I didn't want the tickets to go to waste. I stood outside of the theatre almost 30 minutes trying to give away my tickets and everyone thought I was trying to con them or didn't believe they were real. More than that they didn't believe I was in the show either. Finally a dad comes up to me in a mild manner and said, "Excuse me, did you say you had free tickets?" "Yes," I said with a sigh of relief. "Would you and your daughter like them? I'll even give you a backstage tour." I had no idea what this man had been through, where he and his daughter were coming from or on their way to, but the look on he and his daughter's face was priceless. Everything happens for a reason. I truly believe that. Those tickets were for them. He told me afterwards that this gave him faith again and that dreams do come true. COME ON!!! LOL!
Mary Poppins has meant everything to my family and I. Doing this show reminded me everyday, that anything is possible. ANYTHING. As cliche' as it may be it is true that "If you reach for the stars, all you get are the stars. But if you reach for the heavens you get the stars thrown in". It taught me how to reach.
Mary Poppins will conclude Broadway run at The New Amsterdam Theatre Sunday, March 3, 2013 after 2619 performances and more than six years. With attendance totaling nearly four million guests, the show has been seen by more people in the last six years than any Broadway show except Wicked and The Lion King. Mary Poppins opened on Broadway in 2006, just two years after debuting in London's West End, where it had received nine Olivier Award nominations and won Olivier, Evening Standard and WhatsOnStage Awards. The Broadway production received 25 major theatrical award nominations, winning Tony and Drama Desk Awards.
Mary Poppins will rank as the 22nd longest-running show in Broadway history by the time its run is complete, ranking between Best Musical winners Hairspray and Avenue Q on the list of long runs. For tickets, visit: http://www.marypoppins.com/tickets

China said it plans to raise its defense budget by 11.2 percent to 670 billion yuan (106.4 billion U.S. dollars) in 2012.
This year's draft defense budget is 67.6 billion yuan more than the defense expenditure of 2011, said Li Zhaoxing, spokesman for the annual session of China's national legislature.
"The Chinese government follows the principle of coordinating defense development with economic development. It sets the country's defense spending according to the requirements of national defense and the level of economic development," Li Said
The former foreign minister said the growth of China's defense expenditure is "reasonable and appropriate."
"The Chinese government has maintained reasonable and appropriate growth in defense spending on the strength of rapid economic and social development and the steady increase of fiscal revenues," he said.
During the last three years since the outbreak of the international financial crisis, China's gross domestic product (GDP) and national fiscal expenditure showed year-on-year growth of 14.5 percent and 20.3 percent, respectively, but the country's defense expenditure only grew by 13 percent, according to Li.

BHP Billiton Chooses B&A as Favored Bidder for Iron Ore Stake in Guinea
Reuters reported that BHP Billiton (NYSE:BHP), the world's largest miner, has chosen newcomer B&A as its preferred bidder for its iron ore deposits in Mount Nimba.
As quoted in the market news:
"BHP will enter exclusive negotiations with B&A to sell its slice in Mount Nimba and its smaller iron ore assets in Liberia," the source said.
B&A, a relative newcomer with bold ambitions in the sector, beat rivals including ArcelorMittal (ISPA.AS), the world's largest steelmaker, which is strapped for cash but owns a large project of its own just over the border."

From the beginning of the season to the end has been a hell of a ride. The highs and lows a competition can have are remarkable. In the learning experience one goes through. Looking back to one year ago never drifting. To riding the walls that pro's do. It takes a lot for a dream to come from. Just one year before watching in the stands. Not one person but a team needs to be there for the success of any form of racing. Acquiring new sponsors Tomie, Buddy Club, MOMO, AT&T Wireless, Braille Battery, and the continued help from Tire Dogs is wonderful. Especially Rainy Day Mods for everything (Flint).
Obtaining our pro license will mean nothing in competing again most of the pro's driving. They have years multiplied together in experience on everything. That my team and I have don't have. Only driving and competing will only shorten the gap. Also the shortage of help not provided to the small pro teams, pro-am, and grassroots. Only hinders the growth of the sport and drivers. Noticing even the smallest of help to the underdogs will go a long ways. Maybe not free parts but even a discount. Allowing driver's to allocate the saved money to driving in more events. Furthering the exposure each sponsor gets, but upholding our end as a driver is just important as the help received. Creating a two way street selling my dreams to the audience.
I've had a quite a bit of people ask me. Why is my car number 100? Well for those who would like to know. My mom always used to tell me "give 100 percent or more into everything I do. Even if you fall short or pass your goals. You will always be happy of the outcome." Taking whole heartedly of that what she said. Playing college basketball and everything else I could never have # 100, but in racing you can. So that was the first thing came to mind in picking a number to represent our car. So when you see 100. Know to give 100 percent in your aspirations'.
The off season is just as important if not more important to the regular season. So this year our team will set it up. Furthering everything with the progression of the car to the last penny provided to drive next season. So everyone keep a look out for new updates. I'll see you all at the next drift event September 29 at Evergreen.
tELL US, WHAT YOU THINK OF THE THIS T-SHIRT IDEA. CAN YOU SEND ALL comMENTs. TO OUR EMAIL. FOR MORE IDEAS OR IMPRESSIONS. THAT COULD BE BETTER.

A glimmer of hope in the CBA talks
Last season, fans of Major League Soccer voted on the Save of the Year award for the first time. But if federal mediator George H. Cohen can move the league and its players union towards a new collective bargaining agreement, he'll be a shoo-in to walk away with the trophy this year before the first game has even been played.
"I think ultimately [having the mediator present] is a good thing, just to get the process going again," said one union source who asked not to be identified. "That way, we're not stuck trying to get something done the day before the season starts."
The two sides last met on Feb. 22, a meeting that some reports indicated had ended acrimoniously. The end result had MLS management indicating it would not lock the players out and would be happy to start the season under the terms of the old CBA, which after two extensions officially expired on Feb. 25.
The union's response was to hold firm in its demands for more guaranteed contracts, fewer unilateral contract options, and freedom of movement for players once their contracts have expired. The union also made it clear that if there wasn't more give-and-take on the part of management, then a strike was a distinct possibility.
With Cohen now set to be present during the negotiations, that likelihood has eased considerably, at least in the short-term.
"The ramifications of the mediator being present are that the two sides aren't going to do anything [related to a work stoppage] until the mediator is out of there," said Duke University law professor Paul Haagen, who is also co-director of the Center for Sports Law and Policy. "That generally is a signal that they intend to try to solve the problem."
While Haagen went to great lengths to say that he had no specific knowledge of the negotiations, he added that there are a variety of tactical and strategic reasons for resorting to mediation.
"One possibility is that you use the mediator essentially to negotiate with your own constituents. You might do it if what you're trying to do as a union is convince your membership that this is a fair deal. Or you might do it as a negotiating unit for teams if you're trying to convince your ownership that they've got to give on something. It could also be that there are just personal issues that they're trying to overcome between the negotiators."
Given some of the charges levied by both sides, all of the above-mentioned scenarios could be true to a certain extent, and the hope is that Cohen's 40 years of experience as a labor lawyer, negotiator and mediator will result in an agreement being hammered out.
As with most things in life, however, there are no guarantees. While Cohen's career has largely focused on pro-labor causes, his role in this case is to be an impartial facilitator. It's also important to note that mediation should not be confused with arbitration. Decisions made by an arbitrator are binding, whereas a mediator is there merely to help prod the parties closer to a resolution. Either side could walk away from the table if it decides the direction the talks are going is not satisfactory.
If that were to happen, the path toward a work stoppage would be free of obstacles, and the likelihood that significant damage could be done to both sides increases exponentially. The first domino to fall would see the negotiations declared as being at an impasse, at which point current labor law allows management to forcibly implement its last, best offer (in their eyes at least) over the objections of the union.
Then the union would be free to take the gargantuan step of determining when a strike, as Haagen put it, "could inflict the greatest amount of damage on management."
That point of no return could be the start of the season, or perhaps closer to the beginning of the playoffs. Clearly, it's a tactic the union feels it would be forced into, but it would be hugely damaging nonetheless.
Of course, in the big picture, it is Cohen's job to try to avoid such an eventuality. But at a deeper level, his ability to convince the two sides to give a little on the most important issues is what ultimately will determine if the MLS season kicks off on March 25 as scheduled.
In an ironic twist, Pat Onstad -- who claimed the inaugural Save of the Year award last season -- is an executive board member of the MLS Players Union. If Cohen can provide the impetus toward a new CBA, chances are Onstad will gladly cede his crown.
