When we talk about the greatest fighters in mixed martial arts history there is one name conspicuously absent from every list. Of course I'm talking about the man, the myth, the over the hill direct to DVD action star himself Sensei Steven Seagal.
Granted Seagal has never competed in martial arts, let alone tested himself in an MMA fight, but don't let a little technicality like that blind you to his greatness. The only reason the Glimmer Man never stepped foot in a cage is because it would have been impossible to find an opponent who would stand a chance against him. If you don't believe me, just ask him. Who's going to step to a man feared by Anderson Silva himself?
Fedor Emelianenko may have gone undefeated in Pride but his unprecedented accomplishments in the sport of MMA are nothing compared to the time Segal beat up all those terrorists on a nuclear submarine in Under Siege. Here is a man who has gone undefeated all the way from 1988's Above the Law to this year's creatively titled Maximum Conviction. You're trying to tell me there's an MMA fighter alive with a record like that?
Despite Seagal's peerless credentials, UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture was foolhardy enough to mention in an interview last August that a match up against the seventh degree Aikido black belt would be enough to coax him out of retirement. Naturally, Sensei didn't take this challenge lying down.
"All I can say is, I'm here," he gallantly informed the world on this week's episode of The MMA Hour. "If Randy really wants to fight me, he can fight me anytime he wants. It'll be for free, and it'll be some place where there are no witnesses."
Attempts to reach Couture for comment have proven unsuccessful so far; likely because he's busy drafting a letter of apology to the self proclaimed "warrior" Seagal. After all, what multiple time UFC champion wouldn't be shaking in his boots at the prospect of facing a pot bellied sixty year old behind closed doors?
Anyone who has followed Sensei's career knows just how dangerous an AARP member can be. Gene Lebell allegedly choked the butt kicking Buddhist unconscious on the set of a film the two were working on back in 2002 when Seagal got all up in the then seventy year old Judo legend's grill. The kicker? The ever composed Seagal lost control of his bowels along with his consciousness as he was put to sleep by the septuagenarian Lebell.
They say the mark of a true warrior is how many times you pick yourself up and dust yourself off after a fall - or in Seagal's case stumble to your feet and run to change your underwear - so it should come as no surprise that Sensei didn't let this bump in the road slow him down. He continued kicking ass - and no doubt bullying stuntmen - in such cinematic tour de forces as Today You Die and Pistol Whipped until that fateful day when he received a memo from UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva. Allegedly the Spider begged Seagal to teach him some of his "deadly stuff." The rest, as they say, is history.
Sensei cemented his place as not only a martial arts legend but as one of the all time greatest coaches in MMA history when his prized pupil Silva knocked out Vitor Belfort at UFC 126 and when his student Lyoto Machida starched Randy Couture at UFC 129 by utilizing some of Seagal's "deadly stuff." While critics have noted the hitherto obscure technique used by both fighters resembles a regular 'ol front kick, Sensei remains adamant the lethal maneuver is his own original invention.
This knack for coaching has given Seagal the perspective needed to critique not only his own pupils, but also the most successful champions in MMA history. Case in point Georges St. Pierre. The Glimmer Man hasn't been impressed with GSP over the past few years, going so far as to call his UFC 129 performance against Jake Shields "atrocious." According to Seagal, GSP is a "wonderful" martial artist but not a "great" one.
You may be wondering to yourself just who Seagal is to pass judgement on a man who has successfully defended the UFC Welterweight Title eight times, but let me ask you this: has GSP ever won a bar fight in his life, let alone as many as Sensei has? Do you really think St. Pierre wouldn't turn tail and run for his life if he spied the dough bellied star of Mercenary For Justice walking towards him down a dark alley?
OK, obviously I'm being facetious here. Steven Seagal is nothing more than a cross between that strip mall ninja with the American flag sweat pants immortalized in Napoleon Dynamite and a message board troll. His opinions on athletes who get in the cage and put their well-being on the line are about as valid as those of a drunk at the end of the bar who still considers Kimbo Slice the baddest man on the planet.
However, I'm the type of person who gets a kick out of unintentionally hilarious celebrities, which is why I'm usually amused by the nonsense that falls out of Seagal's mouth when he talks about MMA. There's nothing quite like laughing at a pompous windbag when he makes a fool of himself by spouting off about a subject he doesn't understand. Seagal's brand of vainglorious buffoonery is particularly amusing in that he seems completely oblivious to the fact we're all laughing at him rather that being wowed by his mastery.
After his MMA Hour appearance though I'm wondering how much longer we're going to be laughing. Fatuous blowhards like Seagal may be easy fodder for ironic guffaws, but who's going to care what this self-infatuated nitwit has to say once the joke has played itself out?
Perhaps more importantly, for all Seagal's credentials in the world of Aikido, who's going to remember him as anything more than a self-aggrandizing clown?

WASHINGTON (AP) - Two contractors responsible for building the Healthcare.gov website say they would have liked more time to test it. The contractors say months of testing would have been better than the two weeks' worth of checks done before the website launched Oct. 1. The testing was done by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, not a specialized tech company. The contractors are CGI Federal Inc. and Quality Software Services Inc. Executives from the two companies testified before Congress Thursday about the failures of HealthCare.gov. The problems have become an embarrassment for the White House and have undermined President Barack Obama's health care law. The companies say they've been working to fix the website's problems since it debuted.PREVIOUS STORY:
WASHINGTON (AP) - Republicans on a House panel looking into the government's troubled health insurance website say the problems reflect deeper flaws in the Affordable Care Act. At a hearing today, they're accusing administration officials of misleading Congress with repeated assurances that the rollout of the new health care law is on track. Republican Tim Murphy of Pennsylvania says, "The American people deserve something that works, or start over." Democrats are acknowledging the website problems but defending the law itself. They say Republicans are trying to sabotage the law instead of fixing it. Democrat Frank Pallone of New Jersey says, "Republicans don't have clean hands coming here." Lawmakers are hearing from the principal contractors responsible for the health insurance website. Executives of CGI Federal, which built the site, and QSI, which designed the part that verifies applicants' income and other personal details, are testifying. They say the Obama administration shares responsibility for the snags that have crippled the system.

Bass Guitar, Classical Guitar, Guitar, Mandolin, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Violin
I draw on my twenty years of playing music and share the insights I've learned along the way. I am available nationwide via Skype or through Google Help outs for Guitar, bass and Violin lessons.
I have performed at the French Quarter Jazz festival at age 18 and alongside Russell Malone during the season's conclusion at the Fine Arts Center in downtown Atlanta. I applied and was accepted to Belmont University in Nashville, TN. I studied guitar under John Pell and Paul Abrams. While in school I majored in Commercial Music with an emphasis on music business. When not attending class I spent time performing with various groups including an a Capella chamber singing group, various bands and learning the ins/outs of studio recording and mixing. I found an internship with Yamaha musical instruments where I tuned and maintained instruments for players like John Hiatt, Christopher Cross, Peter Frampton, Tommy Sims, Drew Zingg, Kenny Greeneberg, Larry Carlton, Skunk Baxter and Martin Taylor. Sitting in on rehearsals and sessions with these artists provided insight and experience no college course could. After graduation I went on the road for Yamaha providing artist relations for the H.O.R.D.E. tour where I worked alongside the Barenaked Ladies, Ben Harper and Blues Traveler.
I have opened for various artists including Buckwheat Zydeco, Hubert Sumlin,The Nighthawks, and the late Sean Costello. I have also performed with the Temptations. I have played professionally with Johnnie and the Lowdowns, The Groove Motive and was a session player for the Tammi Kamin band. My guitar talents have also been used to teach preschool children, lead worship at churches and provide musical consolation at funerals. My album credits include student records at Belmont University and the EP titled, Johnnie and the Lowdowns. I am a fan of surf, jazz, and blues and have recorded some of my own creations with my own group, the C.A.T.
As a teacher I strive to show others how to play and create music. My lessons focus on providing the budding musician with the tools to become a proficient player. I have taught privately, group instruction and college level guitar. I have over ten years experience in teaching in classrooms and studios. By focusing on dedication, self discipline and consistency my students have gone from learning to read simple notation to understanding chord theory and how to improvise musically over changes as well as playing their role in an ensemble. Keeping lessons fun is an integral part of practical instruction and I bring my enthusiasm for music to each student. Creativity through knowledge is the core of my instruction.

I have performed, taught, and toured around the country in many capacities for over twenty years, and have an extremely varied musical background. I love nothing more than to share my knowledge, instruction and love of music and theater to those wishing to improve their musical skills and hone their craft.
In addition to teaching, I have been a full time musician for several years, and have experience performing and recording in many facets and genres, as a vocalist, musician and engineer. I have sung with Disney World's Voices of Liberty, worked with hit #1 songwriter Rick Giles (Reba McEntire, Rascal Flatts), and opened up for artists including The Black-Eyed Peas, The Roots, Common, Wycelf Jean, Julian Marley and The Little River Band. My voice can be heard on several recordings, ranging from Classical, Rock, Hip Hop, Children's Music, as well as on my original album, "All My Days", which is available on iTunes.
I have had so many opportunities to perform and learn, constantly challenging me to be a performer and teacher. I want help those wishing to take their careers and skills to the next level, and to open them up to the possibilities available for singers and performers. My goal is to offer real world experience in addition to solid technical foundation and musical knowledge.

I have had many mentors and teachers myself throughout my career, and have learned many invaluable lessons professionally and personally. Having a private teacher is invaluable for those wanting to take their talent to the next level, and I love nothing more than to share my knowledge and passion for music and performance to those looking to be better singers and musicians.

ATLANTA (Dec. 10, 2009) – Habitat for Humanity International is immensely grateful to three members of its board of directors who have completed their terms of service.
Board members oversee the direction of Habitat's activities worldwide as the organization works to eradicate substandard housing. Directors are elected to two-year terms that may be renewed four times. They receive no compensation for their voluntary service.
Retiring board members include
- Ronald Terwilliger, of Atlanta, who served as chair of Habitat for Humanity International's board and recently retired as chairman of Trammell Crow Residential, a developer of multi-family housing in the United States. A graduate of the United States Naval Academy and a Baker Scholar at Harvard University's Graduate School of Business, Terwilliger is the former chairman of the Urban Land Institute, where he remains a trustee. Additionally, he is chairman emeritus of the Wharton Real Estate Center and past chairman of the Atlanta Neighborhood Development Partnership. Terwilliger also has served on the governing boards of the Enterprise Foundation and the U.S. Naval Academy. Terwilliger made a historic $100 million commitment to Habitat for Humanity in 2009.
- Paul Ekelschot, of Zaandam, Netherlands, who retired as the senior vice president of Financial Services for Royal Ahold NV. Previously, he served as the senior vice president for Internal Audit at Royal Ahold and Philips. Ekelschot is active with Rotary Club and is a member of the board for the Netherlands Society of Certified Public Accountants. A graduate of Erasmus University in Rotterdam, Ekelschot holds a bachelor's degree in economics and accounting and is a certified public accountant.
- Janet Huckabee, of Little Rock, Arkansas, who recently retired as manager of Service to Military Families for the state of Arkansas with the American Red Cross. The wife of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Janet Huckabee served as first lady of Arkansas for 10 years. Her volunteer efforts with Habitat included serving as co-chair of the First Ladies Build program and serving on the Women Build Steering Council. Huckabee has volunteered for Habitat for Humanity's Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Projects in Texas, the Philippines, Georgia and most recently, in Thailand.
"We are so grateful for the faithful service that Ron, Paul and Janet have given to Habitat for Humanity and the impact they have made during their tenure on the international board of directors," said Jonathan Reckford, chief executive officer of Habitat for Humanity International. "Their compassion for those in need of adequate shelter has inspired them to lead by example as they have urged the organization, their peers and other supporters to help even more families around the world in need of affordable housing."

She will promote the college's array of certificate, associate, bachelor and select graduate degree programs that focus on high-quality education aligned directly with high-priority workforce needs.
Lineman brings to the position 11 years of experience in program development and extensive knowledge of admissions, marketing, recruitment and financial aid. She will also oversee the Office of Admissions and Financial Aid and the Office of Continuing Education at Venango College.
Lineman has been serving in the role of interim director of marketing and university relations since February of this year. Previously she served as the coordinator of continuing education at the campus since the creation of the office in April 2001, offering a variety of personal and professional development opportunities that have continued to grow over the years. In the first year the program served 75 students through professional and personal development courses and 60 children in a summer enrichment program, Kids in College. Under Lineman's direction, program and course offerings continued to expand including the addition of 14 one-year certificate programs that address high-priority workforce needs. In 2011 the department served more than 650 students participating in various Venango Campus continuing education programs and courses and served populations in Butler, Clarion, Crawford, Forest, Mercer and Venango counties.
"We are delighted to add Hope Lineman to the Venango College leadership team," said Chris Reber, executive dean of Venango College. "Hope is an experienced and accomplished director who will help expand our visibility and enrollment. Hope will be responsible for providing strategic direction for our marketing and university relations activities and will assist with fundraising efforts to build new apartment housing, develop scholarships and further develop the college."
A graduate of Cranberry High School, Lineman holds an Associate of Arts degree from Clarion University–Venango Campus, a Bachelor of Science degree in mass media arts, journalism and communication studies with an added certificate in public relations from Clarion University. She is completing her Master of Science degree in mass media arts, journalism and communication studies at Clarion University, for which she currently is writing her thesis, "The Relationship Between Text Message Volume and Formal Writing Performance Among College Freshmen."

PLATTSBURGH — The effort was certainly there.
The Plattsburgh State men's basketball team, however, came up a little short Sunday against the No. 4-ranked team in Division III.
Middlebury College recorded an 80-73 victory at Memorial Hall in a game closer than the final score would indicate.
"Everybody's good until it's time to be great," said Plattsburgh coach Tom Curle. "It's not good enough to just be in the game.
"We were so emotionally charged up that we made some mental and physical mistakes near the end. We wanted to win so badly."
The unbeaten Panthers (4-0) sealed the win from the foul line, hitting on 19 of 23 shots from the charity stripe in all.
"We competed well — we put ourselves in a position to win," said Curle. "I wasn't unhappy with our effort — I loved the effort.
"But we have to do those one or two things at the end of games that help you win. We have to find a way to win games like this and make the right decisions. We're going to play a lot of games like this one.
"But if we continue to work hard in practice and also on our conditioning, we can be as good as anyone."
The Cardinals (2-1) held a slim lead for most of the first half and took a 29-24 advantage into halftime.
Two baskets each from Gary Tibbs and John Perez to open the second half helped give Plattsburgh a nine-point lead, at 37-28.
But Nolan Thompson, who scored a game-high 23 points, ignited a Middlebury rally with the Panthers scoring 11 of the next 12 points for a 39-38 lead. It was the first time the Panthers led since it was 14-12.
The game went back and forth after that until the Panthers took a 69-62 advantage with 2:18 left.
Plattsburgh did get it back to within three, at 74-71, when Tibbs put in a rebound with less than a minute to go. But that would be as close as the Cardinals would get. It was a five-point game when Joey Kizel hit two from the line with .5 seconds left.

My God. I can't take this anymore. This is too much awesomeness to take in just a few hours. Cant wait for the final product. Watching the live stream and wondering how windows phone 8.1 would benefit from some of the features especially the bung unified search. Can't freaking wait!!!
ricmar says:
Shouldn't it be \\build\ instead of //build/ ? :)
Mark Cesari says:
Not if its in the cloud?
MrGoodSmith says:
I still don't like the implementation of the Start button. It just takes you to the start screen where all app icons are displayed in an unorganized manner. The original start menu had all apps categorized and alphabetically organized. I had to manually add the start menu in Windows 8 using the toolbar feature just to get convenient access to my applications.
Swiftyrox says:
Just go to Stardock.com and purchase Start8 for $5.....Not only do you get a customizable start menu (much like what you have always been used to)....BUT....there is also a setting that allows you to bypass booting into the Metro UI and go right to the desktop. Once you've had Windows 8 for a while...navigation isn't a hassle...but Start8 was the perfect remedy, and one I would recommend to all "New" users of Windows 8 to offer them some familiarity and flexibility!! :o)
EvoFxStudio says:
nice keynote and no support for indie developerment for the xbox one

Veterans memorial restored
Meeting next month to plan dedication
As America honors men and women who died serving in the U.S. Armed Forces on Memorial Day, Powell is ensuring the legacies of local heroes are preserved for years to come.
EDITORIAL: Dialogue should be encouraged at public meetings
At two recent public meetings, officials avoided public comment on separate issues that clearly mattered to local residents. Ignoring the elephant in the room may be easier, but even when the elephant seems especially big, we believe it's better to confront it head-on.
Postal food drive a 'tremendous success'
Powell Valley Loaves and Fishes needed more food, and during the Postal Service's food drive Saturday, local residents delivered.
EDITORIAL: Mineral payments belong to states
Of the many federal budget cuts in recent months, one of the hardest to comprehend is the federal government's decision to cut mineral payments owed to states.
Postal food drive Saturday
Watch your mailbox for reusable bag
When checking your mailbox this week, expect to find a reusable bag. Rather than tossing the bag atop a pile of mail or keeping it, residents are asked to fill the bag with food and set it by their mailbox on Saturday, May 11.
EDITORIAL: Billboard backlash
Problems with how the message was delivered
Last week a graphic billboard showing dead wolves rekindled the region's hotly contested wolf debate once more.
We ardently support First Amendment rights, but also understand why the billboard was removed after only a few days.
Affordable local apartments coming
Four 12-unit complexes to be built in Park County
Finding an affordable place to rent in Powell or Cody may get a little easier soon.
To meet a demand for affordable rentals, 24 new apartment units will soon be built in Powell, with another 24 units in Cody. Four different 12-unit apartment complexes — two in each city — received financing and tax credits through the Wyoming Community Development Authority last week.
EDITORIAL: Moving forward
Powell valley healthcare making strides, moving past struggles
Progress is taking on a variety of forms at Powell Valley Healthcare.
This month, PVHC leaders continued to map out a strategic plan for the organization's future. Meanwhile, a court case proceeded against Paul Cardwell, the former CEO and current fugitive who dropped off the map.
EDITORIAL: State leaders must focus on what matters: quality education
Name-calling, bullying, intimidation and threats often occur on playgrounds. Unfortunately, the same has been true in Wyoming's education system in recent months.
Since the beginning of this year, much of the discussion regarding education in Wyoming has centered around the highly controversial Senate File 104. The law removed Superintendent Cindy Hill as the head of the Wyoming Department of Education, taking away many of her responsibilities and transferring them to a director appointed by the governor.
EDITORIAL: Dairy development
Local processing plant a promising possibility
Park County's answer to the "Got milk?" question is a simple yes. And we'd like to keep it here.
Currently, milk produced in Wyoming is sent out of state to be processed, often hundreds of miles away. In the future, a local plant may keep the milk here, using the raw product to create cheese, yogurt, ice cream and butter.

Traffic disruption ahead as £7million sewer works planned in Rawtenstall
11:00pm Thursday 16th January 2014 in News By Sophia Rahman, Reporter
TRAFFIC and parking disruption is set to hit Rawtenstall as a £7million sewer scheme gets under way.
New underground storm water chambers, and new sections of sewer, will be built on land off the A682, in Bank Street and St Mary's Way, in Bacup Road near the junction with Bury Road, in Ilex Mill car park, off Fall Barn Road, and under the car park opp-osite Highfield Road.
There will also be new manholes, a control kiosk, and an outfall into Limey Water installed, before next winter.
The aim is to help keep Limey Water and the River Irwell clean.
A United Utilities spokesman said: "We understand this type of work can be a pain and we are working closely with Lancashire Highways and local stakeholders to minimise the disruption.
"To complete our work safely, we will need to remove some trees and put some traffic management in place."
During the work, people will no longer be able to use the United Utilities compound to park in.
Lower Bank Street car park will be closed until August. Alternative council car parking has been made available at James Street, and at the top of Bank Street.
There will be no vehicle access into the bottom of Bank Street from St Mary's Way, and traffic manag-ement will be in place.
The spokesman added: "There will be a temporary road closure in place which we expect will be required for a few months.
"Diversions will be clearly signposted via Bocholt Way. Buses will be diverted around Kay Street and Bank Street.
"There will be a reduction in available car parking spaces during our work.
"We'll ensure that there is alternative car parking available nearby for residents.
"We will need to complete some work on Bacup Road which will require temporary traffic lights.
"We thank everyone for their patience while we're carrying out this important work and will provide regular letter updates to the local community."
Camden Blomerley, secretary of Rossendale Civic Pride, said: "The work will undoubtably cause huge problems. United Utilities is trying to do its best to minimise the disruption but, at the end of the day, it's trying to fit a quart into a pint pot.
"Businesses and commuters heading for the M60 and M66 are probably going to struggle. Civic Pride is going to makeover Bank Street after the work has finished and make it much better than it is now."

He's in the pink | Interview with Simon Kuper
To write his first book Kuper traveled to 22 countries over nine months, between 1992 and 1993, on a £5,000 advance from the publisher. He was not a professional journalist and, at 23, had not completed his studies. "I began this book as an outsider" he writes in the first chapter, "Chasing Football around the World." "I had never sat in a press box or spoken to a professional footballer. … The big names scared me. Interviewing Roger Milla, for instance, I could barely look up from my list of prepared questions." The publisher's advance did not go far in Western countries, and Kuper found himself staying in youth hostels. Managers and players comment on his dire straits and worry about a tear in Kuper's jacket—although some footballers thought it might have been a fashion statement—but it is these acknowledgments of self-doubt that help make Kuper's book pleasant to read.
Interview with Simon Kuper
GG: You say Football against the Enemy was "about a time," but looking at the book now would you have added anything, any points of emphasis or disclaimers to what you had written?
SK: You know when I look at the book now it feels like somebody else wrote it because it was so long ago. I'm sure I would have done things differently now, although I find it hard to say exactly what. What I do think is that I couldn't have written it now because we know so much more about the world and about the football world. On the Internet you can find out all these things about clubs and about football situations throughout the world, whereas when I was going to Ukraine or Cameroon, when I tried to read about them beforehand there was really nothing to find at all. Football was hardly reported in the newspapers as a social or political event, so there weren't any of these long features which are now very common about the meaning of some soccer event for politics. To write the book now would be (a) somewhat pointless because the material's all out there; (b) it's now very common to take that approach so it wouldn't be worth doing; and (c) the world has become much more similar. When I went to Ukraine or Hungary these were vastly different places from say Holland or England.
Now people will all watch the same football on TV so the fans are subject to the same influences. You see European Championships or World Cups they all dress the same, they paint their faces in the national flags. So their differences are much less vast. I think also because the world is much more democratic now than 10 years ago, the influence of soccer on politics is less important than it was, although conversely it's talked about much more.
GG: In your mind, when you started working on that first book, were you doing something new that you had not read about in other writings or works of other reporters?
SK: I remember I once heard this radio program about the Rangers-Celtic match and the impact that had on the tensions in Northern Ireland between Catholics and Protestants. This was on the BBC. That struck me as really interesting but I didn't know anything about it. In 1988, I was very keenly aware of the euphoria in Holland when they beat Germany [2–1, in the semifinals of the European Championships] and how this was linked to World War II. Then you got these occasional theories that you half-heard about how Brazil winning the World Cup kept the military regime in power in 1970. So there were these little mentions here and there, but it certainly wasn't the industry it is now. As everybody always says, there wasn't much being written about football anyway in those days so there wasn't a huge body of literature to read.
GG: Has your relationship to the game changed in the time since? Your brief with the Financial Times seems to be pretty broad, including sport in general.

The Panthers entered their Week Six bye with an 0-5 record and little hope of putting together the turnaround it will take to get into an NFC playoff race that is short on elite teams. In another sign of the trouble brewing in Carolina, head coach John Fox is taking subtle shots at the front office for personnel shortcomings.
In public comments Fox has alluded to having a limited budget in the offseason, using it as a shield for criticism. When he was asked this week whether he regretted the decision not to pursue a veteran free-agent receiver, he passed the buck, saying, "Those aren't my decisions."
"We've got what we've got," he said. "It's where we are. We'll coach who we've got and try to get them better to hopefully get the results we want."
While Fox attempts to put space between himself and the team's failings, there are some who say the head coach deserves blame for the way things are going. It's true that the Panthers went with a youth movement this offseason and expectations were not very high for them, but the coaching staff hasn't done a very good job of preparing the young players, according to some league observers.
It's no surprise that Fox is clearly in the mode of preserving his reputation as a capable leader. He's in the final year of his contract and is expected to be one of the more sought-after head-coaching candidates if he fails to get an extension and hits the open market, as expected.
He's already been rumored as a potential contender for jobs in Oakland and Cleveland if Tom Cable and Eric Mangini are not retained. He has connections within the Giants' organization after serving as defensive coordinator there from 1997-2001, and rumors have linked him to the franchise as Tom Coughlin sits on the hot seat.
Before the rumor mill hits its peak later in the year, Fox will try to lead the Panthers to a respectable finish. He hasn't announced whether Jimmy Clausen or Matt Moore will start at quarterback in Week Seven but left the door open for Moore to supplant the rookie earlier this week.
The Panthers' schedule lightens up a bit with the 49ers and Rams up next before a difficult three-game stretch against the Saints, Buccaneers and Ravens.

I'll have to think about this a little more. But, I think that such a construction is usually thought of as imperative, as in a command.
If you consider it to be "(You) allow us to go to the beach". Consider "to go to the beach" as an objective complement. That might work.

In my opinion, it may be ok to monitor the child's location. The parent should explain to them that this is for their own safety.
Anything else and it is invasion of privacy. It does not matter that these are your own kids, they are still human beings and they should be able to have secrets.
And while the child-spying may work for a couple of years, it will eventually stop working. The kids will find out what is happening and will tell each other how to fool the system. They will develop methods to workaround the thing. They won't trust their parents anymore, who will live in a happy ignorance of what is really going on.
Parenting cannot be outsourced, if less time and energy is invested, the child will suffer. If a technology improves the situation for one party (the parent) and worsens it for the other party (the child), it will fail.
