Eric Savitz, Forbes Staff
Covering the intersection of tech and investing.
Cisco Systems yesterday afternoon posted results for the fiscal fourth quarter that actually slightly beat expectations. This is a different Cisco than the one that used to swear up and down that it could grow 12%-17% at the top line ad infinitum; but at least the company is edging past the much-reduced expectations. For the quarter, the networking equipment giant reported sales of $11.7 billion, up 4.4% from a year ago, and a bit ahead of the Street consensus at $11.6 billion. Non-GAAP profits of 47 cents a share topped the Street consensus at 46 cents.
CEO John Chambers cautioned that conditioned remains soft both in Europe and in the federal government sector, but there were signs of hope in other areas, with orders improving in both Asia and the Americas. The company issued October quarter guidance that called for continued slow growth – just 2%-4% at the top line – but nonetheless matched Street estimates.
And Cisco truly surprised the Street - and I mean, they were astonished – with a 75% dividend hike, boosting the yield on the shares to north of 3%. (By comparison, 30-year Treasury yields are under 3%.) Chambers also said the company intends to pay out at least 50% of free cash flow in the form of dividends and stock repurchases going forward.
With the stock trading for a paltry 10x estimate July 2013 fiscal year earnings, and Chambers showing some new found religion on giving back cash to holders, some Street analysts s are becoming more optimistic on the prospects for company – or at least, for the company's share price.
And there's more. Analysts at RBC Capital, Piper Jaffray, Citigroup and Robert Baird all raised price targets on the stock; Davenport upped its rating to Buy from Neutral.
Put it together, and you get a recipe for a rally: CSCO is up $1.45, or 8.4%, to $18.80.
Disclosure: My wife is a Cisco employee.

15 minutes to Zen - or at least I hope so.
05.11.10 15 minutes to Zen - or at least I hope so.
Last week, after my 9000th consecutive night of freaking out on the boys because of their bedtime antics, I challenged myself to exercise, eat better and go to bed early, hoping it would lengthen my fuse. But sadly, when I sat down to write my update post last night, I realized I hadn't exercised, eaten right or gone to bed early. I hadn't changed a single thing.
Sure, I can think of a million reasons why I didn't do these things, but truthfully it was because I sat in front of a computer all day and night trying to keep my head above water at work and ignoring that voice inside of me screaming - STOP FOR THREE SECONDS AND TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!
I was feeling pretty defeated until I read the comments on my last post. Two people said they stay sane by doing yoga or stretching every day - even if its just for 10-15 minutes.
10-15 minutes? Really? Could that really make a difference?
Well today I decided to test out their theory. This morning, I snuck in 15 minutes of yoga in my living room before my first meeting. Then this afternoon after work I took the kids and the dog (seeeee I'm nice to her sometimes) for a 20-minute walk around the neighborhood. And just like that, I'm over the hump and in the game.
So here's my pledge for the month of May. (I'm going to need you guys to hold me to it!)
- At least 15-minutes of yoga 4 times a week
- At least 4 walks with the kids per week
- Go on at least one hike.
Hopefully, after a few weeks I can work up to something a little more meaningful, but until then, I'm going to do what I can. That's all I can promise.

Good Chili Dog in The OC?
I've seen posts asking for chili dogs in other areas, but can anyone tell me where I can find a really good chili dog anywhere in Orange County? I haven't been to Jerry's Dogs yet (is their chili good?) but will try them soon. A good chili dog depends not only on the dog, bun, and toppings, but the CHILI itself---and too many places seem to serve bland flour-thickened slop that can be bought in the can section of the 99-Cent Store. Any recommendations?
I don't know of any places in OC but in LA in Hollywood there is Skooby's which has the natural casing (it snaps), steamed bun and good chili. Not as good as a place I know in Michigan for coney island (Leo's) but closest thing I've found in LA. Drive up and have 3 dogs or so to get the fix in good.
They also have good seasoned fries that are made from real potatos.
Most of the other posts are right, there aren't many good suggestions for great chili dogs in OC. About the only decent ones I've had are at Tommy Burgers, and it's good more because of the chili than the hot dog. I love the chili at Tommy's, and they smother the entire hot dog with it. Also put a large pickle and tomato on top of it.
Some friends of mine went to Red Rock Chili (in the Fashion Island food court, I think) last week, and while this is more of a chili place, I believe they have chili dogs there. My friends raved about the chili being excellent, but I don't think any of them tried a chili dog there. It might be worth checking out. I hope to try it sometime soon.
I've been to Jerry's Dogs several times, but I tend to try their bratwursts and Polish or Italian sausages whenever I'm there, so I haven't sampled their chili dog yet.
Haven't tried any of these following places yet, but they're on my list of hot dog places to try in the future. If any are near you, you can give us a report and let us know:
Mustard's Chicago Style Hot Dogs
3630 Katella Ave., Los Alamitos
Pacific Coast Hot Dogs
3438 E. Chapman Ave., Orange,
& 300 Pacific Coast Hwy. Ste. 106-A, Huntington Beach
East Coast Hot Dogs
19092 Beach Blvd, Huntington Beach
12161 Seal Beach Blvd, Seal Beach
Chicago Harv's
410 E Chapman Ave, Fullerton
Fat Daddy's Auto Spa & Chicago Eatery
900 W. Lincoln, Anaheim
Hollingshead's Delicatessen (German deli)
368 S Main St, Orange
re: Wonginator
Hollingshead's dogs ROCK! Saturday only and the place is usually packed, unless there is a day game at the stadium.
They fly the dogs in from Chicago. I'm a fan of the fire dogs and the brats (which are also served on nights the Packers play, like last night).
re: oc climber
BTW, Hollingshead's isn't German. The family background is English and the food there is midwestern/sandwich type stuff. Everything is homemade on site and good.
Deviled eggs, baked beans to die for, pickled eggs, great big ole' pickles and amazing array of sammiches. Not to mention a beer selection that currently hovers around 400 types (although, Ken is into British and has a huge selection and Kenny is into Belgian ales and yet another huge selection).
15 taps that rotate all of the time... best beer in OC hands down!
re: oc climber
Does Hollingshead's Delicatessen make the monumentally hotdogsimplistic claim that they "fly the dogs in from Chicago," or do they say, "We use Vienna Beef"? If the former, then I wouldn't go near the place, because of the, er, hotdogsimplisticism; if the latter, it might be worth a try, although it is possible to screw up even a Vienna Beef dog -- witness my meal the other day at Portillo's.
I visited Jerry's on Sat, I had their Signature Dog (with natural casing) with chili. The Signature dog was great (snaps when you bite into it); chili was good, ground beef, not too spicy (not exceptional chili, but good). I also tried one of their All American skinless dogs; also good but I would recommend the Signature for the snap. They BBQ their dogs over a wood fire, which gives a good flavor.
And they serve beer, nice companion with a dog!
re: JohnnyGourmet
I agree about PCH hot dogs. Whenever I go motorcycle riding, it's a definite good place to stop and fuel up on their chili dogs. The place is strange, in a supermarket type parking lot, it's a random little hot dog stand sitting there off Chapman, south of Orange Hill restaurant.
If you continue north on Chapman, you'll get to Santiago Canyon road, one of the better roads to ride your motorcycle on in OC. PCH chili dogs always fit the bill when we're on group rides, the fries are fresh and hot, and the chili dogs, with mustard and onions, are just great.
re: kevin
Yeah, i'm jumping on the PCH bandwagon as well. Chili-dogs absolutely kill me and PCH's are no exception, so I try to limit my gluttony to rare occassions. You want some serious arterial damage? Get the chili-cheese fries and wash them down with some pepcid ac. This place must be making a killing b/c it is just a shack with probably little overhead staffed by a min. wage employee and every weekend [and most weekdays] it has a line around it at lunch time. Their Chicago dog 'aint bad either.
In Orange County, the choices are limited, but I must say PCH Dogs are pretty good for a decent steamed hot dog and chili. PCH Dogs in Orange FTW!
As for Jerry's, which has a decent grilled dog, has anyone caught on that the 'chili' they use is actually Hormel?? Cuz if it's not, it tastes just like it.
Portillo's around the corner from Knott's has great chicago dogs with chili.

Imagine having the opportunity to interview an iconic historical figure. What would you ask him or her?
Immaculata students in Thomas Welsh's AP US History class have the opportunity to do just that when participating in a unique lessonen titled "Clio's Dinner Party," named for the Greek muse of history. The experience, which will occur intermittently throughout the school year and will correlate to the time period being taught in class, has one or two students research and role-play historical figures in a debate type setting.
Afterwards, the rest of the class asks questions of their historical guests, simulating a press conference.
The class of 19 recently held their first such lesson: Junior Matthew Ackerman, of Hillsborough, portrayed Alexander Hamilton while junior Joseph Piccirillo, of Warren, portrayed Thomas Jefferson.
In full costume, the two debated political points that were important during the foundation of America's government. The conversation focused on Hamilton's support of a national bank and Jefferson's opposition to it, as well as state rights and individual liberties. The entire discourse was unscripted and relied on the two students' knowledge of their characters' stances.
Afterwards, the class held a panel discussion during which more unscripted questions were asked.
"It was a challenge portraying such important historical figures and a great educational experience," Andrew said. "I got a better understanding of the issues of the time and see how they affect Americans even today."
The activity culminated in a newsletter written by the class as a whole. Students used the notes they took during their panel discussion to put together a comprehensive article covering all major parts of the debate.
"The point of this exercise is to allow the class to appreciate the historical lessons in a whole new way," Welsh elaborated. "It gives them a first-hand look at how a meeting with these important people might have gone."
He says he plans to continue these lessons, allowing each of his 19 pupils at least one chance at portraying a historical figure.

Lady Cards roll past Lady Tarpons in softball
Mon. February 20, 2012 at 10:36 p.m. | By Mike Wagenheim/Sports Correspondent
THIBODAUX — E.D. White Catholic softball coach Linda Sanders was concerned heading into her team's season opener against South Lafourche on Monday afternoon.
But those worries were quickly alleviated as the Lady Cardinals romped the Lady Tarpons in a run-rule 15-0 decision in nondistrict action.
"We had some girls playing different positions," Sanders said. "Our practices have been shaky. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was very pleased at what I saw, pitching-wise and hitting-wise."
E.D. White scored five runs in each of its three times at bat and ran at will, totaling 13 stolen bases.
Claire LeBouef, the club's lone senior, delivered a double, a single and a bases-loaded walk. She also recorded a stolen base and scored a pair of runs.
Lady Cardinals pitcher Madison Rodrigue allowed one hit and struck out three in taking the victory.
"This is a huge confidence booster for us," said LeBouef, who started at third base. "This is a payoff for all the hard work we've been putting in at practice. I've just been trying to keep us positive, but we've got a lot of young leaders, and I think we're headed for a good year."
E.D. White took advantage of 12 walks, along with a pair of hit batsmen and several wild pitches, issued by South Lafourche pitcher Marissa Melancon.
The Lady Cardinals needed just four run-scoring hits, including a couple by Rodrigue in support of her own cause.
The rest of the damage was done through a combination of patience at the plate and an aggressive running game.
Catcher Chelsey Page recorded the lone hit for South Lafourche (0-1) on a third-inning single.
"We had a couple of players out for this one so we had to shuffle positions," South Lafourche coach Corey Callais said. "We didn't make a lot of mistakes defensively, which I was glad to see. But we're going to need to make adjustments at the plate. We faced a good program, and it gives us an opportunity to see exactly what it is we need to work on."
At Houma, the Lady Tigers fell to 0-1 with the nondistrict loss, and Ashley Theriot suffered the loss in the circle.
Destrehan led 4-0 after the first inning.
At Gray, the Lady Braves fell to 0-1 with the nondistrict loss, and Brenna Copes took the loss in the circle.
Kaplan scored two runs each in the first and fourth innings and scored three in the second.
Lindsey McCollough was 2-for-3 with two RBIs for H.L. Bourgeois.
At Thibodaux, Kayla Bland walked none and struck out eight in the circle for the home team, but a fourth-inning run by Morgan City gave the visiting Lady Tigers the nondistrict win.
Thibodaux (0-1) had six hits. Amber Clement and Sadie Daigle each went 2-for-3 for Thibodaux.
At Napoleonville, Central hit a 3-run homer in the first and added a seven-run fourth inning in taking the nondistrict win that ended after five innings.
Alli Beth Blanchard suffered the loss in the circle and Sadie Arabie (single, RBI) and Emily Booty (RBI) led the Lady Mustangs (0-1) at the plate.
At Lafayette, Lindsey Crowdus had a home run, two doubles, two RBIs, stole two bases and got the nondistrict victory in the circle (allowing six hits) as the Lady Warriors improved to 1-0.
The game was stopped after five innings. Houma Christian had 13 hits and had a seven-run second inning.
Taylor Pierron (double, RBI) and Emily Albares (double, single, RBI) were other offensive leaders for the Lady Warriors.
At Thibodaux, as part of the Central Lafourche Jamboree that was moved to Thibodaux on Monday because of inclement weather over the weekend, the Cardinals emerged with the exhibition victory.
At Thibodaux, as part of the Central Lafourche Jamboree that was moved to Thibodaux on Monday because of inclement weather over the weekend, the Gators used five different pitchers and rallied from an 8-3 deficit to get the victory in six innings.
Seth Cadiere was the last to throw and worked an inning and got the save and Britt Pellegrin got the win.
The Gators scored five runs in the fifth and four in the sixth and South Lafourche had an eight-run third.
Zachary LeBeouf (triple, double), Zack Hebert (two doubles) and Josh Trujillo (double) led the Gators at the plate, and Norry Galjour homered for the Tarpons.

How to Breed Discus
Edited by IngeborgK, Catdog, BR, Teresa and 2 others
Discus are wonderful fish to have. Their rounded shape and intricate color patterns are beautiful to look at. However, these fish do require extra care to keep. Discus breeding takes just as much pampering. Here are the steps that you need to know on how to breed discus fish.
1Keep your discus fish in an aquarium that is big enough for them. They will not breed in a tank that is too small for them. The tank should be at least 15 inches deep; one that is 36x18x18 inches (91.4x45.7x45.7 cm) is the smallest that is suitable for a pair of discus.Ad
2Maintain suitable water conditions for your fish. The temperature in your aquarium should be at 82 degrees F (27.7 C) or higher. The water should also be very soft, with a pH of around 6.5. Discus fish fare well in acidic water. This means you will have to continually check the pH. The pH should never go above 7.0 for discus. Also, the nitrate level should not rise above 20 ppm.
3Feed your discus a lot of protein. Most breeders usually feed their discus beef heart and supplement with blood worms and spinach. You can also give the fish vitamins and some flake food for some extra nutrients.
4Keep the eggs in the same tank as the parents once they are laid. If the water is kept at the correct temperature, the eggs will hatch in 48 hours. Once the eggs are hatched, continue to keep the fry in the same tank as the parents. The first food they will eat is secreted through the parents as slime on the body. The fry will eat this slime off the parents for 3 weeks.
5Feed the fry baby brine shrimp. After about 3 weeks, you can start feeding the baby discus. Live baby brine shrimp is best, but if you cannot use live, frozen is acceptable. Use a medium slow bubble on the air stone to get the frozen baby brine shrimp moving around the aquarium to simulate live shrimp. Once they accept the brine shrimp you can begin feeding them fine flake food. Be sure to use high grade food suitable for discus fish.
6Keep the discus fry with the parents for 6 weeks. By this time, the fry should be less dependent on the parents and will start swimming around the tank on their own. At this point you can move the parents to another tank if you wish.Ad
- Use a hardness test kit to check the softness of your water.
- Always change the water frequently to keep the nitrate down. Change 30 to 50 percent of the water each week.
- If your water is too hard, soften it by adding distilled water and bottled spring water. A good mixture for discus is one part distilled water to one part spring water.
- If the adult discus start to bicker with one another, use a piece of glass to separate them.
Things You'll Need
- Aquarium with a filter
- Baby brine shrimp
- High-protein food: beef heart, blood worms and spinach
- Water hardness test kit

How we change what others think, feel, believe and do
The Opener
Techniques > Public speaking > Parts of the Presentation > The Opener
Description | Example | Discussion | See also
The 'opener' in a presentation is a deliberate and short piece that grabs the attention of the audience by various means.
A classic method gaining attention is to shock the audience by using some form of controversial statement. You can also use physiological shock by using a bright flash or sudden loud sound You can also evoke emotion by threatening or offering satisfaction of basic needs and other motivations.
When attention is gained, the rest of the opener leads the audience into the main body of the presentation.
Specific openers include:
LOOK OUT!!! It's what we have to do these days, when terror stalks the streets and glares at you from the ever-present media. So what can you do? Do you just duck when there's a loud noise or should you be properly prepared? Basic preparation is not difficult as I will spend the next 30 minutes showing you. In fact I hope you will take the easy steps I will show you and then rest easy in the sound knowledge you are much safer than most other people in this great city of ours.
Managing attention is a basic principle and gaining it has to the first step before people will listen to you, and an easy way of doing this is with surprise, which itself may be created with some form of contrast.
A critical trick with the opener is not just to grab their attention crudely and then start a mild presentation, but to use the energy created with a powerful link in into the main body of your presentation.
It is important to connect with your audience early in the presentation, forming a bond with them. The opener is an ideal place in which to hook in your audience and 'glue' them to you for the rest of the session.

If the number of questions I get about file recovery are any gauge of an article's popularity then my free file recovery software list must be one of the more popular pieces on my site.
In other words, the complicated and often misunderstood topic of recovering deleted files rightly generates a lot of confusion.
So to both shrink my ever-growing inbox, and to settle the minds of those that decide not to take the time to ask a question, here are answers to some of the more common questions I get regarding these "undelete" programs and file recovery in general.
"I just deleted a file that I want to get back. Am I out of luck since I don't already have a file recovery program?"
No, not having a file recovery program already installed doesn't preclude you from being able to recover a file. Having a file recovery program installed doesn't mean that it's watching for deleted files or anything like that.
So if you've deleted a file you want back, go download a file recovery program, and run it. Assuming that space hasn't already been overwritten (see the next question below), you'll probably have no problem undeleting the file.
Unless you mean quite literally that you just deleted a file? If so, check the Recycle Bin. It's probably there since that's what it's for. See How To Restore Deleted Files From the Recycle Bin if you've never restored a file from the Recycle Bin.
"Will a file recovery program undelete anything I've ever deleted?"
The short answer is no, but it's a bit more complicated than that.
While this might surprise you to learn, the information in a file, for example, doesn't actually get removed when it is deleted. The file system, which is like an index that keeps track of where the pieces of a file are located, simply marks the areas that contained the file as free space that the operating system can overwrite with new data.
In other words, the map that held the location of the file is removed from the index, essentially making the file invisible to the operating system... and you.
So a file recovery program works by exploiting the fact that, while the directions to a file are missing, the actual file is not, so long as that physical space has not been overwritten by something new already.
Now that you know a bit more about how it works, I can better answer the question: a file recovery program isn't likely to undelete everything you've ever deleted because at least some of the physical space occupied by those deleted files has likely been overwritten with new files.
"How long is too long before a file I've deleted becomes unrecoverable?"
Technically, it's not a "how long" question so much as it's a "how much data have you written to the media since deleting the file" question.
As I discussed in the answer to the previous question, when you delete a file, you don't really remove the data, only the directions to it. The space occupied by that data is marked as free and will eventually be overwritten. The key, then, is to minimize the writing of data to the drive that contains the deleted file.
In other words, the less writing activity (saving files, installing software, etc.) on the drive, the longer, in general, a particular file will be able to be recovered.
For example, if you delete a saved video and then promptly turn off your computer and leave it off for three years, you could theoretically turn the computer back on, run a file recovery program, and restore that file. This is because very little data has had a chance to have been written to the drive, potentially overwriting the video.
In a more realistic example, let's say you delete a saved video. For weeks, or even just days, you use your computer normally, downloading more videos, editing some photos, etc. Depending on things like how big the drive you're working from is, the amount of data you're writing to the drive, and how big the video you deleted is, chances are it won't be recoverable.
"Do any of these programs undelete files that I've deleted from my flash drive/SSD/external hard drive/media card/iPod/CD/DVD/BD?"
Yes, many do. Whether a program supports one storage device over another depends on the file system that the particular file recovery program supports.
Most file recovery programs support any device that you can plug into your computer and display the contents of as a drive.
"What if I delete a file from a network/shared drive? Can a file recovery program undelete those?"
No, not exactly. The reasons why are a bit complicated but basically it's because your computer doesn't actually "control" the drive, another computer does.
However, if you have access to the computer that the shared drive is actually located on, go there and try to undelete the file with a file recovery program.
Unfortunately, this also applies to network storage devices you might have on your network that are not directly connected to another computer. While it might seem strange to think about, there is actually an operating system supporting that drive and file recovery would have to be initiated from within that drive. A Windows or Mac based file recovery program won't be of help there but you should log on to the web-based administration for the device and see if there are any integrated file recovery features that might be helpful.
"I found a file recovery program that looks good but there are two download options: 'portable' and 'installable.' Which one should I use?"
They are identical programs. The difference is that one installs to your hard drive, the other runs self-contained.
In general, I like portable, self-contained programs. They don't leave shortcuts, DLL files, and registry keys all over your computer. That just "feels" better to me.
Now, multiply that "like" times one million and that comes close to how much I prefer portable file recovery programs over installable ones, and here's why:
If you've been reading through all the questions in this FAQ, then you already know that the single most important thing you can do to make sure a file you've deleted will be recoverable is to stop writing information to your hard drive. If you didn't know that, now you do.
Installing software is one of the most write-heavy things you could possibly do, so" installing" a file recovery program is a very ironic, and potentially destructive, thing to do.
In a perfect scenario, which may or may not be possible for you, you'll choose the portable version of a free file recovery program, download it to another drive, and run it directly from there. Where you run it from doesn't impact where you search for deleted files on, so don't worry about that.
"The file recovery program I'm using finds a lot of files but few of them are 100% recoverable. Why are only parts of my deleted files available for recovery? Will I still be able to open these files if I recover them?"
When your computer writes data to your hard drive, or flash drive, or whatever storage media, it's not written to the drive in a perfect order. Divisible pieces of the file are written to parts of the media that may not sit next to each other physically. This is called fragmentation.
Even files we might consider to be small contain many thousands of divisible pieces. For example, a music file could in reality be heavily fragmented, spread over different parts of a hard drive.
As you may have learned several answers above, your computer sees the area occupied by a deleted file as free space, allowing other data to be written there. So, for example, if the area occupied by 10% of your MP3 file has been overwritten by part of a program you installed or a new video you downloaded, then only 90% of the data that comprises your deleted MP3 file will still be available for restore.
That was a simplistic example, but hopefully you get the idea.
To the question of the usability of just part of a file: it depends on what kind of file we're talking about and also what parts of the file are missing, the later of which you can't be sure of. So in most cases, no, restoring a file that has missing data will usually result in a worthless file.
"My computer won't start at all but I need to get my files off. Can a file recovery program help with that?"
No, a file recovery program isn't going to help get your computer started. Keep in mind, just because your computer won't start, doesn't mean your files are gone; it just means that you can't access them right now.
What you need to do is get your computer started again. See How To Troubleshoot a Computer That Won't Turn On for help with that.
"I have determined/was told that my hard drive is completely dead/broken. Is there any chance that one of these file recovery programs will be able to get my important data off of it?"
If by dead or broken you mean a physical problem with the hard drive, then no, a file recovery program isn't likely to help. Since file recovery software needs access to your hard drive like any other program, it is only valuable if the hard drive is in otherwise working order.
Physical damage to a hard drive, or other storage device, doesn't mean all hope is lost, it just means that a file recovery tool isn't your next step. Your best solution to recover data from a damaged hard drive is to employ the services of a data recovery service. These services have the hardware, expertise, and lab environments necessary to help repair and restore the data from damaged hard drives.
However, if you're experiencing a BSOD or some other major error or situation that's simply preventing Windows from starting, that doesn't necessarily mean that your hard drive has a physical or unrecoverable problem. See the answer to the last question for more on that.

Pesto Trapanese
Pesto Trapanese
Western Sicily's secret sauce.
Although Sicilians use the term "pesto" here, the ingredients have little to do with what we know as pesto, the basil-based sauce from the Riviera.
There, the Genovese use basil, olive oil, garlic, pine nuts and cheese. In Trapani, a small town south of Palermo in western Sicily, pesto means superb Sicilian almonds, local tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic and olive oil, no cheese.
The basil definitely takes a back seat to the almonds and tomatoes, making it very different—and very good. A unique spread that's easy to use for everything from pasta to seafood—a staple in Trapani—to bean soups. An excellent little diversion for the home cook.

MCHENRY – Foul trouble has plagued Crystal Lake Central junior guard Kelsey Schmitt.
That problem again arose Saturday in the Northern Illinois Holiday Classic against Harvard when Schmitt picked up her third foul with 2:49 left in the second quarter. However, the fouls never slowed her down. Schmitt scored a game-high 12 points on 6 of 13 shooting to lead Central to a 45-27 win.
Central (7-6, 1-2 in pool play) faces North Chicago at 6 p.m. Thursday in the third-place bracket.
"As a team, we really wanted to come out with high intensity and that's what we did," Schmitt said. "That's how we got our lead at the beginning of the game."
Schmitt admitted the fouls are frustrating and Tigers coach Paul Lichtenheld said it's been an issue at times this season. However, the Tigers were able to sustain their success against the Hornets because of the inside presence of forward Shannon Ellman (11 points and seven rebounds) and Evelyn Youel's ability to attack the basket, which helped Central build an 11-point lead at halftime.
The lack of fouls called on Central drew the attention of Harvard coach John Lally, who was given a technical foul in the third quarter for arguing. The physical play contributed to Harvard's 32 turnovers, which resulted in 26 points for the Tigers.
Forward Sam McCloud led Harvard (2-12, 0-3) with 10 points and nine rebounds. The Hornets play Woodstock at 6 p.m. Thursday in the fourth-place bracket.
Lakes 44, McHenry 30: With a spot in the tournament's championship bracket on the line, one bad quarter by McHenry ruined that opportunity in a loss to Lakes.
The Warriors (7-6, 2-1) scored only two points in the second quarter and trailed 22-9 at halftime. Trailing by one point through the first eight minutes, Greta Taylor's layup with 6:54 left in the second brought McHenry back within one after Lakes scored to open the quarter. Twenty-three turnovers, including nine during the second quarter, disrupted McHenry's offense, although Brittany Avonts capitalized in the paint and finished with a team-high 13 points.
McHenry squares off against Burlington Central at 6 p.m. Thursday in the second-place bracket.
"We just stopped playing," Warriors coach Scott Morris said of their second-quarter performance. "It's just the way this season is going. We're up and down from game to game, from quarter to quarter. We can't have that."
Lakes 51, Crystal Lake Central 33: The Tigers trailed by seven at the half, but Lakes blew the game open by outscoring Central 17-8 in the third quarter en route to the pool play win.
Evelyn Youel led Central with 11 points and Shannon Ellman added 10 points.
McHenry 50, Harvard 37: The Warriors' offense found a rhythm early against the Hornets, scoring 17 points in the first and hit double digits in each quarter during their tournament win.
Taylor paced McHenry with a game-high 17 points while Harvard's Abby Linhart returned to the lineup after missing Friday's game with a sprained right ankle and finished with a team-high 14 points.

Enlighten me about donations November 15, 2011Posted by philangelus in pensive.

5 comments
On Twitter over the weekend, someone tweeted a statement opining that people who donate to Occupy Wall Street but have never donated to a food pantry, soup kitchen or homeless shelter are hypocrites.
Yes, Twitter is the place where people spout all sorts of opinions. I should have just ignored it, but I replied that I found it hard to believe anyone in the US might not have donated to a food pantry at some point in time.
The person replied that yes, there are people who have never donated to a food pantry, soup kitchen or homeless shelter, either money or goods.
Why do I not believe this? Food donation is dear to my heart, and if you read The Boys Upstairs, you saw it there as well, but it's not just my skewed perspective. Food pantry donations are ingrained in our society right now. My children's old school had a yearly Mitten Drive for the kindergarteners to bring mittens for children in homeless shelters. My children's new school has food drives twice a year for the Angelborough Food Pantry.
Libraries in both Angelborough and Angeltown accepted food donations in lieu of library fines, and because they didn't tally up the food donation amounts, you could in theory walk in the door with an armload of books overdue by eighteen months and hand them a can of Campbell's Chicken Noodle. Even someone who didn't believe in giving to charity would probably rummage in their closet for that.
You'll note both those institutions are public: the libraries and the schools aren't encouraging you to donate food because Jesus, Moses, Buddha and Muhammad said all the cool people are doing it. They're encouraging it because it's a practical need that every person has. But anyone affiliated with a religious institution is probably given opportunities to donate to the hungry and the homeless through them as well.
Call me naive if you want, but because it's so pervasive, I can't see anyone not having donated at least once to a shelter or a food pantry unless they made a conscious decision never to do so. But then again, those people also wouldn't have donated to Occupy Wall Street.
So let's here it: tell me I'm wrong, because you guys are good at pointing out when I've been boneheaded. Excluding people who are under eighteen, people whose finances don't permit donations, and anyone with a developmental disability (although I know people in all three categories who do donate), do you know an actual person (but no names please) who has never donated to a food pantry, soup kitchen or homeless shelter?

Check it out:
It's "Ela's Favorite Hat" from the book One-Skein Wonders, done in Noro Silk Garden. I didn't choose the color bands; Silk Garden is self-striping yarn, and it comes in all these crazy colors.
This one is for the donation pile, and I prayed for the recipient while knitting. I don't know anything about the eventual recipient, but it might be someone homeless or someone in a shelter, and those are pretty awful places to be. I figure people in that situation ought to at least have a brightly-colored warm hat, and I pray for them. I pray that they can be one warm hat away from turning it around.
Originally I donated to a charity that sent all the scarves and hats to Mongolia; it wasn't until I dropped off that beaded scarf at the Angeltown Food Pantry that I realized I might see the scarf again one day — I might meet the recipient. And that weirded me out because it feels like violating someone's privacy. Angelborough is an even smaller town. The women's shelter in the next town over doesn't seem very far away.
While knitting this hat, I thought about it again. Standing in line at the supermarket, I look up and the woman in front of me is wearing the hat. What do I do? If she turns and sees me staring, I would never say "I made that," but I might say, "I was looking at your hat. Is it hand-knit?"
And what if she says, "Yes, but I don't know who made it. It was given to me at a very dark time in my life, and I know this seems silly, but right after I got this hat, everything turned around. I found the courage to apply for a job, and I got it. I was able to move to a safer place with my kids. And everything's good now."
That doesn't happen in real life. It happens in my head during rows of knits and purls and while making whimsical iCords for the crown. She'd probably just say, "Yeah, I think it was," and leave it at that.
I do like to think, though, that maybe a woman would receive a hand-made hat and think, "Someone must have cared to make this," and maybe that can be enough to fight off the despair when it's all gone wrong.

Since we're all still here, let's get to work. There are still hungry people to feed, the sick and dying to pray for, and sad people to comfort. I'm praying in a special way today for everyone deceived by the rapture promises, that no one's faith will be shattered because of this.
I do not intend to remain inactive in Heaven. I want to work for the Church and for souls. I have asked this of God and I am certain that He will grant my request.
I will spend my Heaven doing good upon earth. This is not impossible, since the angels though always enjoying the beatific vision, watch over us. No, I cannot be at rest until the end of the world. -St. Thérèse of Lisieux

John Major receives Knight of the Garter
The Queen has appointed former Conservative Prime Minister John Major as a Knight of the Garter.
The former Huntingdon MP becomes the third ex-premier to receive the Order of the Garter, England's highest chivalric honour.
The order already includes Baroness Thatcher and Sir Edward Heath, two other ex-Tory leaders.
Mr Major's appointment comes after fellow holder of the honour, ex-Labour premier Lord Callaghan, passed away.
The Queen has also named Sir Winston Churchill's 82-year old daughter, Lady Soames, as a Lady of the Garter and former lord chief justice Lord Bingham of Cornhill.
The appointments are traditionally announced on St George's Day.
Sir John said he was "absolutely thrilled, honoured and delighted" to receive the honour.
The official ceremony will take place at Windsor Castle in June.

A while back, I wrote about my dad. It's posted on my blog. Believe it or not, someone e-mailed me Thursday that they'd found my blog, and had been doing some reading. She requested that I share this particular post here. So...here you go...
I was thinking the other day about how different my life would have been had my mom not married my step-father.
What is a step-father anyway? It's just a new dad...not a replacement for the old one. Maybe. More like a supplement or an enhancement to the previous situation.
But in my case, my mother, my brother and myself were just getting by. Being a single mom is not an easy task, and it's even harder when your "ex" is no help whatsoever. I can't imagine what my mom dealt with on a daily basis.
And then along came Billy Morrison. He was willing to not only take on a new wife, but her two kids as well. The first time we – meaning my brother, Greg, and I – met him, Greg asked him, point blank, "Are you gonna marry my mama?"
Despite that horrific question, Billy stuck around. And he did marry our mama. He eventually adopted Greg and me. And somewhere along the way, he became "Daddy" and not "Mr. Billy."
I often think, what would my life have been like if Billy Morrison hadn't come along?
Here's what I've got so far.
• I wouldn't have the last name Morrison.
• I wouldn't have grown up in Lincolnton, Ga., thereby making me a lifelong Red Devil fan.
• I wouldn't really understand how to divide words into syllables – somehow I didn't get that in school, and Daddy sat with me for a loooong time, working with me until the proverbial light bulb came on.
• I wouldn't know I dislike tomato juice. Daddy made me try it once. A whole glass of it. He didn't want me to waste it after I'd ordered it in a restaurant. I thought it was pretty.
• I wouldn't understand that if someone squeezes me really hard, it makes me tinkle. Thanks a lot for that one, Daddy.
• I wouldn't be a safe driver. Daddy made me drive in circles in the American Legion parking lot until I perfected the needed skills.
• I'd still have braces. Daddy drove me to the orthodontist to have them removed.
• I would have dated much more in high school, but I'd probably have gotten hurt much more, too. Dating is risky business.
• I wouldn't have a baby brother named Benny. Can't imagine my life without the little twerp.
And last, but not least, I wouldn't be the person I am today. Every little girl is shaped, at least a little, by her relationship with her daddy. I'm no exception to that.
I read somewhere that anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a daddy. It takes someone even more special to be a step-father.
Happy Father's Day, Daddy. I'm glad we didn't scare you away.

Remove that .01% from the equation, readers: Emily Maynard and Brad Womack are most definitely over.
"We're no longer engaged," Maynard says in the latest issue of People. The statement came just minutes after she taped an interview with Chris Harrison that will air on the July 11 episode of The Bachelorette.

Island style cottage just south of Hope Town. The cottage is located on a ridge with beautiful Bahamian foliage, making it very private and secluded. The location of the house offers beautiful views of the beachfront and Atlantic Ocean. On the backside, the property has a private dock, perfect for a rental boat. The main house is a small efficiency cottage with A/C in the living area and a futon double bed, full kitchen and bath room. A separate traditional Bahamian sleep house has large screened windows on all sides allowing for the ocean breeze to cool the room. In the sleep house, there is a queen size bed, full bathroom, and A/C. Down a short path from the main cottage is a sundeck with steps down to the beach below. The sundeck is equipped with Adirondack furniture and is a wonderful place to spend late afternoons with a glass of wine or early mornings watching the sun rise, listening to the ocean waves.
Our oceanfront Bahamian cottage, Sea Loft, is located along the Queen's Highway on the ocean side of Elbow Cay, just south of Hope Town. It sits high on a ridge with beautiful views and access to the beachfront, as well as harbour access for a boat on the back side of the house. The Atlantic Ocean borders the cottage on the east side and Nigh Creek, just off the harbour, borders the west side with a private dock. The cottage is located centrally on the island, just a few minutes walk to the village.

The Takeaway: Republican Presidential Candidates Get Heated in Vegas; Social Security Increase Coming
Posted on 10/19/2011 by Elizabeth Nolan Brown |Brooklyn, NY | Comments
Bulletin TodayStakes Up But Jackpot Elusive in GOP Debate: Maybe it was something about the Vegas air that got Republican presidential candidates so riled up in last night's CNN-sponsored debate (the fifth GOP debate since Labor Day). This debate, at Las Vegas' Venetian/Sands Expo and Convention Center, saw Herman Cain vigorously defending his 9-9-9 tax plan, which was nearly universally panned by the other candidates, and Texas Gov. Rick Perry—after a subdued showing at last week's debate—doing his darnedest to tangle with Mitt Romney once again (though no more Social Security talk; illegal immigration was all the rage this week).

Haslam Appoints Jeff Bivens to Court of Criminal Appeals
News release from governor's office:
NASHVILLE - Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam today announced the appointment of Jeff Bivins to the Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals, Middle Section of Tennessee.
Bivins, age 50, currently serves as Circuit Court Judge for the 21st Judicial District which includes Hickman, Lewis, Perry, and Williamson counties.
"While all of the applicants we considered were top notch, the breadth and depth of Jeff's experience was distinctive," Haslam said. "It includes not only his time on the bench in Williamson County but also his familiarity with the judicial selection system, the court of judiciary, and judicial elections, his private litigation experience, and his previous government service, both at the local level and the state level. He has the opportunity and experience to be an outstanding appellate judge."
Prior to his judicial service, Bivins was a partner with Boult, Cummings, Conners, and Berry. He served as assistant commissioner and general counsel for Tennessee Department of Human Resources during the Sundquist administration and was the executive vice president and general counsel for the Parker Bath Corporation in the private sector. Bivins also served as a county commissioner in Williamson County.
He is a member of the Tennessee Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission, Tennessee Judicial Conference, Criminal Pattern Instructions Committee of the Tennessee Judicial Conference, Tennessee Trial Judges Association, and the John Marshall American Inns of Court. He served nearly 20 years as a member of the Tennessee Bar Association.
"I am deeply honored to accept Governor Haslam's appointment to the Court of Criminal Appeals," Bivins said. "I have thoroughly enjoyed serving on the trial court bench and now look forward to this next chapter of my life in public service. I will work tirelessly to become an excellent appellate judge, while maintaining the highest ethical and moral standards in this new position."
A Kingsport native, Bivins received his bachelor's degree from East Tennessee State University, where he graduated magna cum laude, and he received his law degree from Vanderbilt University. He and his wife, Gail, have two daughters and live in Franklin.
