The Diversity and Equal Opportunity Office (DEOO) is the principle vehicle to guide the implementation of our diversity and inclusion strategies and programs. However, all of us have a role in helping to achieve a high performing, inclusive learning community. Through the DEOO, a number of resources and services are available to help us create an organizational culture that maximizes the potential for diversity to achieve our vision of becoming one of the nation's most distinguished academic health sciences center.
The DEOO coordinates diversity programming and provides oversight of compliance for Affirmative Action/EEO and ADA policies. We mediate and resolve conflicts related to uncivil behavior, harassment and discrimination. These policies and procedures are the foundation for managing a diverse workforce and creating a culture of civility and respect. Yet, managing diversity simply as human respect is not enough. To achieve remarkable results and achieve our institutional mission, an inclusive organization must be created. We embrace diversity in its many dimensions and strive to create an organizational structure that meets the needs of every individual who makes up our community. Several diversity resource groups and university leadership positions exist within UMMS to drive our inclusion efforts. Diverse groups are a powerful force. They generate more ideas, make positive changes and help advance great institutions like UMMS. I am confident that our efforts will "go plaid," integrating diversity into our system, structure and the way we function. The DEOO staff thanks you for helping us advance our diversity and inclusion goals. Deborah L. Plummer, Ph.D. Vice Chancellor Human Resources, Diversity and Inclusion

INDIANAPOLIS — The city of Indianapolis' Department of Public Works has installed the city's first "bike box" at the intersections of 71st Street and Cross Key Drive and 73rd Street and Spring Mill Road on the city's northwest side.
A bike box is a colored area marked on the pavement at intersections to designate a space for bicyclists to pull in front of waiting automobile traffic. This new street feature aims to reduce car-bike collisions, increase cyclist visibility, and give bicyclists a head start when a light turns green.
These additions will enhance safety along a busy corridor of the city's transportation network. An increasing number of cyclists are traveling on West 71st Street because it connects the Monon Trail and Eagle Creek Park.
"Our city continues to gain national prominence as a bike-friendly community, and promoting and enhancing safety on our city's streets and bike lanes is a priority," DPW Director Lori Miser said. "Simple features like bike boxes are easily built into our existing street projects, and they have the potential to increase safety for cyclists and drivers."
Bike boxes are particularly effective at reducing the likelihood of a "right-hook" collision, one of the most common types of accidents between motorists and cyclists. Right-hook collisions occur when drivers turn right as a bicyclist proceeds straight through an intersection.
In most cases, the bike box is a 14-foot wide rectangle marked in front of the stop line for motorists but behind the pedestrian crosswalk. The box typically extends the width of one or more travel lanes and provides room for several bicyclists. Bike boxes are also often used in conjunction with bike lanes, from which bicyclists pedal directly into the box. Bike boxes have been in use since the late 1980s in Europe and Asia and have been gaining in popularity in recent years in cities across the United States, such as Portland and Salt Lake City.

Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
This CD contains the best song ever written by lynott, "A Night in the life of a blues singer". Throw an ear on John Sykes' solos on the song. Each of them is brilliant. The "quintessence" of guitar playing.
The outstanding track on this album is "the holy war" including one of Phils more outstanding riffs. this is a definate MUST have for a true Lizzy archive.
This disc is a must for Lizzy fans! As far as i can tell, not a single overdub.Raw,in your face,and laced with melancholy, as this is Thin Lizzy's last show with Phillip! Recorded at the Reading rock festival in 83.The final moments of this gig,you can really hear the sadness in Phils voice. I agree with the other reviewer,"A night in the life of a blues singer" oh my god! John Sykes is feeling the end of this band,and his solo will rip your friggin heart out!! Get it..
Great, grungy set that contains definitive versions of a lot of later Lizzy material ("Waiting on an Alibi", "Thunder and Lightning", etc.). These guys were one of the great live bands of their day — they almost always sounded better live, in fact — and as such all three of their live releases should be mandatory purchases for the true rock fan. Classic stuff.

Prior to Game 4 between the Detroit Red Wings and Nashville Predators, neither team had shown an offensive advantage in the series, despite the talent that both rosters contain. Down 2-1 in the series heading into Tuesday night's affair, Mike Babcock made some changes to the lineup in order to bring a little offensive balance for Detroit to take advantage of their well-known dominance at home.
The notable changes for included putting Dan Cleary with Pavel Datsyuk and Johan Franzen. Meanwhile, Todd Bertuzzi, whom Cleary replaced, moved down to play with Justin Abdelkader and Drew Miller to add some frontline presence to give the Predators defense some trouble. Cleary has been recovering from an injury to his knee, and after a few games (and a bunch of cortisone shots), he earned a chance to get going this series on Detroit's top line.
The changes worked in the Wings' favor to start, as they came out much harder than the Predators. Nashville was unable to establish anything offensively and Detroit owned in zone time -- by the start of the third period, the Preds only had 10 shots (three in the second alone) to the Red Wings' 28. The advantage in puck possession also gave the Wings more chances on the power play. It seemed inevitable that the line changes had worked, giving Detroit an edge in holding the Predators talent back.
The only problem was that none of the changes turned into actual goals, so changes were made once again during the game. Bertuzzi returned to the top line and Cleary was moved back down with Abdelkader and Miller. It didn't work. While one Nashville attempt was reviewed and ruled no-goal early in the period, the Preds got one right to take the 1-0 lead. The Wings kept up the pressure and Jiri Hudler scored to tie the game on the team's fifth power play of the evening, but it didn't take long for the Predators to take the lead again. They have their own adjustments to thank.
Martin Erat began the game playing with Sergei Kostitsyn and Mike Fisher, but by the third period he was moved over to work with Fisher and Patric Hornqvist, who was moved up from the third line. The Preds' adjustment worked almost immediately, as he took advantage of a defensive breakdown and fed the puck to Kevin Klein for the open goal.
With Nashville leading by midway in the third period, Babcock continued to tinker with the lines, but the changes worked to no avail, as the Wings went down, 3-1 in the game and now the series.
The number one reason for the failure in Detroit's adjustments was Pekka Rinne, who finally played up to his expected level in Game 4, stopping 40 of 41 shots on the night. At the same time, maybe it's true that Nashville just has the simple ability to outmatch Detroit, regardless of what lineup they throw together.

State Patrol investigating possible double homicide from fire
A Ewing, Nebraska man has been taken into custody for questioning in connection with an early Saturday morning fire resulting in the deaths of two people. The Nebraska State Patrol says the bodies of two people were found in the southwest corner of a trailer home that was destroyed a mile and a half east of Ewing. 33 year old Mark Henrichsen is a suspect in the deaths of the two people, and remains in the Madison County jail without bond.
Law enforcement initially responded to a call of a domestic dispute possibly with weapons at the location and learned as they were getting close to the scene that firefighters were also on their way to the trailer. They found the trailer engulfed in flames.
A man who managed to escaped the home was not injured and was released after questioning.

When fourth graders visit the Frist Center for the Visual Arts in downtown Nashville, it's usually for a field trip. But in this case, the art they'll see is their own.
Some of the greatest artists of all time didn't get their work into museums until long after they died, but some talented 10-year-olds from schools in Williamson and Wilson County have already busted that barrier with their creative work.
Encouragement might be the greatest gift teacher Kelly Selfe gives to her art students at Poplar Grove School in Franklin. What they produce is mostly up to them, and it works.
Levi Christianson's drawings are so good that one now hangs at the Frist Center.
"It was my hybrid animal - a giraffe and shark. I called it a Shiraffe," Christianson said. "I just like using my imagination and creativity when I doodle, and when I figure out what I'm drawing I just put some detail into it."
Twice a week, Selfe's art class stencils or paints in an independent way to challenge and promote an outside-of-the-box type of thinking.
"To give them opportunities where we're not feeding them exactly what to do, they have to explore and have to learn from their own mistakes," Selfe said.
The instructions are more than just "go draw." The assignment list requires more.
"An artist statement, a photo, a nameplate and hybrid rubric," Christianson said. "A lot of work, yeah."
The goal here is not necessarily to discover a new Da Vinci or Picasso, but perhaps an Edison or a Steve Jobs or simply someone unafraid to try or think differently.
"I'm really good at math, and it's my favorite subject. But I love art, too. Art's my second best," Christianson said.
The Frist Center promotes getting involved with art at a young age. Registration is open for summer camps that teach painting, sculpture, photography and more. For more information, visit: http://fristcenter.org/.

Georgetown, MA — The Reverend James M. Carroll passed December 24, 2012 in Newburyport, MA. Fr. Jim was born Nov. 8, 1940 in Lawrence, MA, the son of the late James M. Carroll, Sr. and Margaret M. (Bennert) Carroll of Thorndike Street, Lawrence and Seabrook Beach, NH.
He is survived by his brother and sister in law Joseph C. Carroll and Kathleen A. Carroll of New London, NH, nephew Michael C. Carroll of New London, NH and niece Erin K. Carroll of New York City. He is also survived by several cousins, including Mary Cain Canto of North Andover, and many close friends, as well as former parishoners who became lifelong friends. He was predeceased by several aunts, uncles and cousins, including close cousin Mary Deane Bennert.
He attended grade school at the Hood School in Lawrence and graduated from St. John's Preparatory School, Danvers, MA - Class of 1958. Following graduation he entered Cardinal O' Connell Seminary in 1960 and later studied at St. John's Seminary. Fr. Carroll was ordained as diocesan priest in the Archdiocese of Boston, in May, 1968 and was devoted to ministry in the Merrimack Valley and always asked for a parish in that area. He served as curate at St. Patrick's Church of Groveland, Mass., and later at St. Monica's Parish in Methuen, MA. While at St. Monica's he was recognized as Methuen's Man of the Year, he was Police Department Chaplain in Methuen where he gained a reputation for being effective with troubled youth, and served on the Board of the Henry C. Nevins Home, a position he was asked to continue to fill when he moved to Haverhill. When Father Carroll left Methuen, he was presented with a policeman's ring by the Department, a gift he cherished, in recognition of his service and the stature he had gained with them. Later he was assigned as pastor of St. Rita's Church in Haverhill, MA and then at St. Mary's of Georgetown. He oversaw the merger of St. Mary's in Rowley with St. Mary's in Georgetown, MA and served as Vicar of the Haverhill Vicariate. As a life-long summer resident and later a year-round resident of Seabrook Beach he had a lifelong love of the ocean. Jim worked as a mate for Eastman's Fishing during his teenage years from the time he was 12, starting with current owner Les Eastman's grandfather, Oscar Eastman. The Eastmans were Jim's other family. He later narrated whale watches for Eastman's Fishing and enjoyed bringing his nephew out on whale watches, as well as always organizing a summer parish trip. He retired from active parish life in 2010 for health reasons, but not his ministry, and assisted at Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal Parish in Hampton, NH. Father Carroll was dedicated to his vocation, and for 42 years carried out his work with devotion, humility, kindness and humor. True to his calling, he always reached out to those less fortunate, and embraced as his friends many who were marginalized by society.

A Newark woman who is accused of fatally throwing her neighbor's dog into the oncoming traffic during an argument over a parking spot was indicted on four counts Wednesday, authorities said.
Haniyyah Barnes, 25, was indicted by an Essex County Grand Jury on charges of second degree burglary, third degree animal cruelty, third degree theft and third degree criminal mischief, according to the Essex County Prosecutor's Office.
In August 2011, Barnes allegedly forced her way into her neighbor's home and threatened and assaulted the neighbor over a parking space. When her neighbor's 2-year-old Shih Tzu named Honey Bey ran into the room and barked at her, she grabbed the dog by the throat, ran outside and threw it into oncoming traffic where it was struck by a vehicle and killed, said Assistant Prosecutor Michele Miller, who is handling the case.
A Newark police officer patrolling the area witnessed the incident and immediately placed Barnes under arrest.
Barnes is scheduled to be arraigned on June 18 before Judge Verna Leath.

ARCADIA, Calif. (April 22, 2012)—Santa Anita Park, which will host the Breeders' Cup World Thoroughbred Championships on Nov. 2 and 3, capped its 75th winter/spring season on Sunday with gains in on-track attendance, handle and overall pari-mutuel handle.
Santa Anita's out-of-state business was robust, propelling The Great Race Place to finish up with a seven percent increase in total pari-mutuel handle. On-track handle and attendance were up one percent over 2011, as more than 580,000 fans attended the races at Santa Anita this meet.
"This is our first winter/spring meet under the direction of the Stronach Group," said Santa Anita C.E.O. Mark Verge. "Our Chairman, Frank Stronach has laid the groundwork for an exciting, vibrant future and we will continue to demonstrate that.
"We promoted very aggressively at this meet and it paid off. Our initial goal was to showcase our five big days and make them bigger, and we did that.
"We had 44,579 here on opening day (Dec. 26) which was a 10 percent increase over the previous year and it was the first time we've had more than 40,000 people out for opening day since 1999.
"Sunshine Millions Day (Jan. 28) was also big for us. We had an on-track crowd of 30,514, which far outdid what any other track in the country did on that day.
"Strub Stakes Day (Feb. 4) was a home run as well," continued Verge. "Our all-sources handle was $15 million, which was three percent increase over last year. The Santa Anita Handicap Day (March 3) on-track crowd was up 10 percent over last year.
"Santa Anita Derby Day (April 7) was outstanding and people were impressed with the energy and the excitement we had throughout the track. The Derby itself was an incredible race and we want to congratulate (owner) Paul Reddam, (trainer) Doug O'Neill and their entire team on the job they did with the winner I'll Have Another. This is what people expect when they come to Santa Anita--great racing, great customer service and a feeling that we've got something very special going on here.
"We got very aggressive with our Late Pick Four guarantee of $750,000 on Derby Day and the result was a total pool of $992,000, which was the biggest Pick Four pool of the meet and our overall handle of $17.8 million was very strong as well."
The 72-day meet produced a total of 22 Pick Six carryovers, the largest being a two-day carryover of $430,581 on Big 'Cap Day, which resulted in a massive total Pick Six pool on Sunday, March 4, of $3,110,484. Santa Anita continues to be the nation's Pick Six leader, evidenced by the closing day Pick Six pool of $575,980.
Jockey Joel Rosario dominated his competition in the rider standings, winning his second consecutive Santa Anita title with 89 wins, 17 clear of Rafael Bejarano. Rosario finished second in stakes-won with nine added money tallies. Mike Smith finished on top with 11 stakes wins, including the Grade II Potrero Grande Handicap, which provided him with his 5,000th career win.
Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert breezed to his record 10th Santa Anita training title, winning 46 races, seven more than runner up John Sadler. Baffert was also the leading stakes-winning trainer, winning eight, three more than Sadler and Ron Ellis.
Hronis Racing LLC led all owners by races won, with 10 victories.
"We'd like to congratulate our leading owners, trainers and jockeys and thank them for their commitment during this meet," said Verge. "We'd also like to sincerely thank our fans for all of their support and commitment. They are the reason we are in business and our customers will continue to be our top priority.
"We have the most beautiful racing venue in the world and we're proud of the fact we made many new friends at this meet. We're continually striving to make the on-track experience here at Santa Anita an unforgettable one—each and every time our fans visit us.
"We look forward to our Autumn Meet and to hosting the Breeders' Cup for the sixth time in November. It'll be an honor to showcase this magnificent facility and to put on another world-class show on NBC."

iPad (1) may have a reprieve longer than my headache
October 31, 2013 - Paul Giannamore
Found an alternative to the complete scuttling of the iPad (1) that I hadn't used yet: The complete factory reset option.
I used to worry about losing "stuff" by doing that, but I realized I had no "stuff" on there anymore other than apps and a lot of 1973 Dodge Charger pictures downloaded before the last episode of "Burn Notice." The feeling is gone, the show is over, the iPad is crashing too much, so bye bye old Dodges.
The reset was painless. And unlike the backup and restore as an already registered iPad option that I used a month or so ago, it started totally fresh. Nothing was in there. Nothing was downloaded. And when I installed apps, it blissfully asked if, because I'm driving a functionally obsolete iPad (1) now, if I would prefer using older versions of my apps.
So, I'm back to reading the AP wire, a version of Chrome that doesn't seem to crash, and maybe Facebook and Twitter in a more stable configuration.
I don't know. I'll have to test today. Because when I finished the retune and app download, I realized the little headache I had earlier in the day Wednesday had turned into a full-on, your sinuses need to be drilled and bled, I wish I could blow my eyeballs out of my head headache. It was not the iPad that did it. It is the darned weather. Get cold or get warm, but please, stop the up-and-down stuff. My head cannot take many more bad sinus days this fall.
So, I'm taking back at least half the hateful left-behind-by-Apple thoughts I had. I wasn't left behind, but I was too unaware to realize I could rebuild right where I am.
Now it's up to the device. Will it crash while trying to write a Facebook post? Will it crash while longing after F-150s on eBay?
Will it live until Christmas and into 2014 or will it be traded in and turned into a nice, shiny Android pad of some sort?
Stay tuned. I'll know as soon as I try to use it today.
If this headache goes away.

Keith Wenning threw for two touchdowns and ran for another as Ball State defeated Virginia 48-27 on Saturday.
Jahwan Edwards added three scoring runs for Ball State (5-1), which shredded a Virginia (2-3) defense that came in allowing only 299 yards per game. The Cardinals finished with 506 yards.
Wenning had TD passes of 11 yards to Willie Snead in the second quarter and 72 yards to Jordan Williams - a fourth-quarter back-breaker that put the Cardinals up 41-27 and sent many in the crowd of 38,228 scurrying for the exits.
Edwards' 17-yard TD run sealed it. He also had scoring runs of 3 and 32 yards.
Virginia's David Watford was 21 of 36 for 209 yards and one interception. Kevin Parks ran for two touchdowns for Virginia. The Cavaliers looked explosive at times as they compiled 459 yards, but they were done in by missed opportunities, turnovers and penalties.

ReNew Life - Intestinal Bowel Support System Kit
Intestinal Bowel Support™ is a two-part advanced intestinal support system for the mucosal lining of the digestive tract and the health of the bowel. Intestinal Bowel Support is formulated to alleviate symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome including spasms of the colon and general irritation.
Part I (Intestinal Lining Support) contains L-glutamine, N-acetyl D-glucosamine and herbs that support the health of the intestinal lining.
Part II (Bowel Support) contains a combination of Western and Chinese herbs, which help to maintain healthy bowel function. Western herbs such as skullcap, peppermint and chamomile help to relax and calm the bowel. Cranberry helps to tone the bowel. Fennel, ginger and peppermint help to relieve gas. Slippery elm and fenugreek help to soothe and relax the bowel. Chinese herbs have been traditionally used to soothe, calm and support the bowel.
Why is a healthy intestinal lining important?The intestinal lining is essential to proper digestion, immune function, and overall health. The intestinal wall secretes mucous to coat the surface of the intestinal tract and allows good nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream while blocking out waste, toxins, parasites, and undigested foods. Without a healthy intestinal lining, toxins and parasites can enter the bloodstream, as a result cramping, bloating, and gas may occur.
What helps support normal bowel function? Along with maintaining a healthy intestinal lining, normal bowel function can be achieved through herbal support. The most important types of herbs include anti–spasmodic herbs to relax and calm the bowel, astringent herbs to tone and restrict tissue mucosal discharge, carminative herbs to reduce gas and bloating, and demulcent herbs to reduce irritation and inflammation.
How does the Intestinal Bowel Support kit work?Part One of Intestinal Bowel Support is an L-glutamine-based formula that helps promote a healthy inflammatory response. L-glutamine and other ingredients also support the intestinal lining. Part Two is a bowel soother that helps reduce intestinal spasms and helps maintain normal bowel contractions.

No More Heroes
Release Date:09/15/2007
ESRB Rating: Rating Pending
Genre: Action
Publisher: Spike
Developer: Grasshopper Manufacture Studio
One of my most expecting games in this year.
Here are some screenshots:
Here are two videos:
Spoiler Alert![MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDSot5r1TzM&mode=related&search=[/MEDIA]
Source of this preview:
Here's their preview, from 1up.com:
To those who don't know how Killer 7 was, check out this sick scene of the game:By Shane Bettenhausen 06/22/2007
Grasshopper Manufacture's upcoming adventure No More Heroes clearly stands apart from the rest of its third-party Wii brethren, and not just because it's neither a spazzy minigame collection nor a last-gen port with tacked-on motion control. Rather, No More Heroes differentiates itself by being phenomenally weird...let's just hope it's a good weird. This surreal offering blends open-ended, Grand Theft Auto-style missions, frantic Wii-mote swordplay, and bizarre, postmodern humor in distinctive visual trappings that bear a strong resemblance to Grasshopper's divisive cult classic, Killer 7 (PS2/GC).
We're still a bit foggy on precisely how all these disparate elements will come together in the final product, so we're going straight to the source -- enigmatic No More Heroes Director Goichi Suda -- for assistance. While he doesn't exactly reveal the true nature of the gameplay, Suda adamantly explains precisely what his new game isn't.
It's not just another Wii minigame collection
No More Heroes stands out among Wii releases by being...well, a real game. In a sea of insubstantial minigame collections, a meaty single-player adventure seems positively ambitious. It's no accident, and Suda has no shortage of opinions on the state of Wii software. "Let me tell you one thing," he insists. "I'm not looking to other developers' Wii titles as reference points during the creation of No More Heroes...I think a lot of developers are preparing original software on Wii presently, but at least in Japan, you can't deny the fact that developers are planting the soil on this new platform with unoriginal and entirely boring game concepts."
It's not Killer 7 all over again
Although we had plenty of respect for Killer 7's wildly creative storyline, its complex web of politics, religion, and insanity left most players thoroughly lost without a clue. "The story of No More Heroes proudly represents the antithesis of Killer 7's," Suda explains. "It's a story of the maturation of a young man, so the narrative should be more understandable for players." So, rather than juggling seven characters, each representing aspects of the protagonist's fractured psyche, here you only have to wrap your head around one hero, the amusingly named Travis Touchdown.
Travis begins the game as an affable everyman who lucks into a killer find via an Internet auction site -- his very own beam katana (think: lightsaber). Armed with this new weapon, he accepts a gig as a hit man...and later finds himself caught up in an international assassination competition against the world's finest killers. Sound preposterous? Maybe not -- perhaps this is a primal fantasy that Suda knows gamers will relate to. "He's actually a huge manga, anime, and hardcore fighting otaku [fanboy]," says Suda of his new hero. "Travis figures that if he's going to turn his hobbies into something practical, he's going to become a hired killer."
No More Heroes also diverges from Killer 7 in terms of structure and gameplay: That game's simple, linear stages and ill-advised "on-rails" controls have wisely been bulldozed, replaced by a wide-open world where you can travel and fight with no restrictions. The fictional city of Santa Destroy, CA provides a suitably quirky backdrop to the action and, thankfully, you're not limited to hoofing it around this sprawling metropolis. "Players will need to use Travis' bike, the Schpel Tiger, to ride from location to location within Santa Destroy," says Suda. "While he's in transit, I don't expect Travis to encounter enemies, but there might be set instances where there will be on-bike battles."
It's not Red Steel all over again
Since most of No More Heroes' combat involves slicing up fools with Travis' beam katana, prepare to wield your Wii Remote for some serious swordplay. But, as Ubisoft's Red Steel taught us, virtual sword fighting can feel awfully haphazard and imprecise. Luckily, Suda appears to be fully aware of this potential pitfall. "If you're going to make a katana-based game, you're going to run into a lot of problems unless you adopt an advanced camera system," he says. The game's dynamic camera makes it easy to determine how to best strike your opponent -- the precise motion you make with the Wii Remote isn't actually that crucial, but the height and angle of your attack are. Expect to encounter a bit of a learning curve, but skilled players will soon be able to dismember and decapitate foes, and even mix in a few wrestling-inspired finishing moves (like a skull-crushing suplex) using the Nunchuk. Overall, it's a far more brutal, visceral approach to sword combat than we've seen in the past. "The Wii is an entirely new device and requires a completely new approach to game design," says Suda. "You can't take your past experiences into a Wii game and pray they work just as well as before."

Can Manny Diaz resurrect his tarnished reputation as the new defensive coordinator for Louisiana Tech?
Chronicling the final moments of Manny Diaz as defensive coordinator, how Greg Robinson returned to Texas, and what he'll try to do to fix the defense.
According to a report form Orangebloods.com, the Texas Longhorns have removed Manny Diaz as their defensive coordinator after giving up a school record 550 yards on Saturday night against BYU.
The Texas defensive coordinator was spotted getting on a plane headed to his hometown of Miami on Monday morning. Could he be interviewing for the open FIU job?
Manny Diaz is struggling in large part because of the way he's using Texas' linebackers.
Looking at the key match ups for Saturday night's Big 12 showdown between the Longhorns and Cowboys. Can Manny Diaz get the better of Joe Wickline? Will Dom Espinosa hold up against Calvin Barnett?...
While the Thursday report from Kansas that Texas head coach Mack Brown would retire on Saturday initially seemed ludicrous, a day later several factors keep it from seeming so far-fetched.
With as many as 17 head coaching jobs opening up around the country, Texas' defensive coordinator Manny Diaz may be a hot commodity.
The Texas Longhorns defeated the Texas A&M Aggies 27-25 to send off the Aggies to the SEC.

Vanilla in Phila.
By Bill Adair
Published on Wednesday, April 16th, 2008 at 9:59 p.m.
Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were just a few blocks from Independence Hall, but their debate on April 16, 2008 had few fireworks. It did, however, raise a new controversy that had already been simmering on conservative blogs: Obama's ties to a former member of the Weather Underground.
Clinton spent much of the debate suggesting that Obama's background had not been fully explored. Obama said voters were tired of campaign sniping that distracted from critical issues.
We checked several facts from the debate:
• Clinton correctly characterized the relationship between Obama and William Ayers, a former member of the Weather Underground, earning another True.
• Obama accurately described income inequality, saying it was the largest gap since the 1920s. We rated that True.
• Clinton was right that Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has recently said he has doubts about what the U.S. says happened in the Sept. 11 attacks. We rated that one True.

I will now make some observations on the external dimension of Muslim extremism, perceptions of which among non-Muslim Sri Lankans tend to impact negatively, very negatively indeed, on the local Muslims. Islam tends to be seen as a religion that encourages fanaticism, violence, and aggression, which has led to the notion that Islam was spread by the sword. That is supposed to be the process...

Last updated: 27 Aug 2014 16:02 An open-ended ceasefire in the Gaza war was holding as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced strong criticism in Israel over a costly conflict with Palestinian fighters in which no clear victor emerged. On the streets of the battered, Hamas-run Palestinian enclave, people headed to shops and banks, trying to resume the normal pace of life after seven weeks of fighting. Thousands of others, who had fled the battles and sheltered with relatives or in schools, returned home, where some found only rubble, Reuters news agency reported. Al Jazeera's Andrew Simmons, reporting from Gaza, said people were now trying to work out what to do next.

Thousands of Palestinians are celebrating in Gaza after Israel and Palestinian groups agreed an open-ended ceasefire to end seven weeks of fighting in Gaza. The Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, said on Tuesday from the occupied West Bank that a formula had been accepted by all parties and that a ceasefire had gone into effect at 1600 GMT. He hailed the agreement as a chance to "build a new nation and end the occupation", before thanking Egypt, Qatar and the US for their roles in brokering the agreement made during indirect talks in Cairo. The Reuters and AP news agencies quoted Israeli officials as saying that the Israeli government had accepted the deal. Israeli media reported the same. Hamas's exiled deputy leader, Moussa Abu Marzouk, said the agreement was a "victory for the resistance".

More than 2,000 people have been killed in the latest Gaza war [Reuters] Israel has launched air strikes on "terrorism targets" in Gaza and recalled negotiators from Cairo after three rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel, as efforts to agree a permanent ceasefire appeared to unravel. The Israeli military said that rockets landed in open areas near the town of Beersheeva. Sources told Al Jazeera that they were fired from nearby Shujayea. Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, ordered his army to attack targets in Gaza, and recalled from Cairo negotiators who were involved in indirect talks with Palestinians on a permanent ceasefire.

Egypt said it had received "simultaneous consensus" from both sides for the truce which will begin at 21:00 GMT on Sunday. Israel will send negotiators to the Egyptian capital on Monday if the truce holds. The Egyptian foreign ministry called for the immediate ceasefire "given the necessity to protect innocent blood." It called on both sides to use the lull to "reach a comprehensive and permanent ceasefire." A previous 72-hour ceasefire brokered by Cairo ended on Friday morning, with the conflict resuming between Israel and Hamas, who run the Gaza Strip. Israel withdrew from truce negotiations in Cairo on Friday, soon after the previous ceasefire ended in a firestorm of violence. As of Sunday afternoon, the death toll in Gaza had reached 1,939. According to the UN, about 73 percent of the people killed were civilians.

A leader of the Palestinian group Hamas has said there will not be a renewal of the Gaza ceasefire that ends on Friday unless Israel meets some of its demands.

As we speak, no response has been received to Hamas's demands, which means there is no breakthrough in this respect." A 72-hour deal brokered by Egypt took effect on Tuesday, bringing relief to residents in the Gaza Strip after four weeks of fighting and heavy bombardment. Israeli media has reported that Israel was offering to extend the ceasefire for another 72 hours unconditionally.

Netanyahu: Israel will 'continue to act in full scale' against HamasBy Laura Smith-Spark, Mariano Castillo and Salma Abdelaziz, CNN August 2, 2014 -- Updated 1944 GMT (0344 HKT) Gaza City (CNN) -- The bloodshed in Gaza showed no sign of letting up Saturday, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing to "continue to act in full scale" against Hamas until all militant tunnels are destroyed. In the past day, 50 Palestinians have breen reported killed amid renewed Israeli shelling that followed accusations that Palestinian militants captured an Israeli soldier. The fate of the soldier, identified by the Israel Defense Forces as 2nd Lt. Hadar Goldin, remains unclear. Netanyahu told reporters in Tel Aviv Saturday that Israeli troops "managed to hurt severely" the capability of Hamas during the Gaza operation. "Israel will do everything to bring our kidnapped soldier home," he said, offering his condolences to the families of Israeli soldiers killed during the incursion. Netanyahu said Israeli forces will "continue to act in full scale"...

While the number of named tropical weather systems this year is, thus far, about equal to 2011, most of the storms that formed fizzled out or were swept to sea before having had a chance to impact land.
One potential reason: a weather pattern known as El Nino.
El Nino, Spanish for "the little boy" because it often is identified near Christmas, is a warm phase characterized by high pressure over the Pacific Ocean.
It occurs about every five years, and has been identified as happening this year. The phenomenon is powerful enough to affect weather patterns here and around the globe.
Last year, El Nino's opposite pattern – La Nina – was in effect, which brought low pressure to the Pacific.
"Upper level winds over the tropics are strong," said meteorologist Steve DiMartino of NYNJPAWeather.com, which has stunted development of tropical systems. "It's kind of like a buzz saw taking out these tropical systems before they reach North America."
The air has also been dry this year, and digging troughs have been turning most storms out to sea, said DiMartino.
"It's been and will continue to be a different season from last year," he said.

ATLANTA (AP) - State officials say Georgia is withdrawing from a consortium to create standardized tests aligned with Common Core curriculum.
State School Superintendent John Barge and Gov. Nathan Deal said Monday that Georgia is withdrawing from the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers to ensure that Georgia officials maintain control of the state's academic standards and testing.
Officials say using a general assessment would keep state education officials from being able to tweak standards to serve Georgia students.
Barge says the PARCC tests are also estimated to cost more than $27 million - which eclipses the state's system-wide assessment budget of $25 million.
Common Core curriculum has been a touchy issue with some lawmakers and educators saying it's a path to a federal takeover of state education systems.

Several of my friends came last year from Reno to this event. They had been coming for years. After the way the hotels around Pleasanton treated them, they said they would NEVER come back to this event again. Here are people coming with gorgeous paint jobs on their very expensive cars and the hotels not allowing them to park in their parking lots. Asked them to park in DIRT. They also had to pay EXTRA to park their car in a SAFE place and pay extra to have someone guard their cars since they were broke into the first night. Doesn't that sound like an event you would flap your arms and get excited to attend?

liberalism is a disease is a registered user.
Sue, which hotel(s) are responsible for the shabby treatment?
on May 29, 2013 at 8:51 am
The Hilton in Pleasanton and the Marriott off of Dublin Canyon Road. The Marriott on Hopyard wouldn't allow them to park their either.
