Stuff was a proud participant in the local non profit, Hands On Greater Richmond day of volunteering. Stuff led a simple art project aimed to showcase the sheer volume of Richmond community members that came out and volunteered on Saturday, October 18. Reusing old magazines, newspapers and scrap paper, volunteers made cut-outs of their hands.
The hand collages are now on display at the Hands on Greater Richmond offices.

The play of the year
"Oftentimes, you'll find on a change of possession that guys might not run the ball down quite like that," Caldwell said. "He'll be dejected, kind of watch what happens and jog along.
"But our guys have an attitude that when things happen, a sudden change, they can flip the switch quickly. The effort that he put forth, I think, was indicative of the style of play we've had from our guys throughout the year."
Clark, who was one of the many Colts chasing Reed on the play, said his fellow receiver came up with a "huge play."
"Watching Pierre, he was just flying to catch Ed," Clark said. "To not just think of the tackle, but to try to get the ball back was outstanding. It was a tremendous effort on his part. But that's what we have been doing all year long, trying to out-hustle people and trying to create plays like that."

In 1965, Che Guevara wrote in a letter to Fidel Castro:
"Hasta la victoria siempre! ¡Patria o Muerte! Te abraza con todo fervor revolucionario."
"Ever onward to victory! Our country or death! I embrace you with all my revolutionary fervor."
Two years later he was captured and executed by Bolivian government troops, sealing his status as a revolutionary martyr and icon, and "Hasta la victoria siempre!" has become synonymous with the Cuban revolution.
What does "victory" mean to today's Cubans? Is the spirit of the revolution still alive? Or are Cubans merely paying lip service while waiting for the old guard to fade away?

ANDERSON, Ind. — Morgan Tarlton was the team's No. 2 rebounder a season ago, and she graduated.
"We've got a 6-foot sophomore in Samantha Kern, who did pretty well during the summer," said Brattain. "I think we're going to be pretty good. Boles is back to nearly 100 percent."
Last season, Lapel posted an 11-8 mark and came within three points of knocking off eventual sectional champion Winchester in the opening round.
The Eagles have a loss of mammoth proportions as the state's leading scorer from a season ago, Kelsey Key, graduated.
"We're not going to replace her with a player or two," said Riddle. "It is going to take the entire group."
Frankton does have some experience returning, but many of those players will be asked to do things they didn't need to do a season ago.
"We are trying to establish our identity and learn how we need to play," said Riddle. "We aren't going to change much defensively, but we've had to completely revamp our offense."
Peyton Dellinger, Kaylee Irwin, Katie Key, Ashtyn Rastetter and Emily Benefiel are a quintet who each have two or three more years of eligibility remaining.
"I think it will be more important this year to measure our season in effort and improvement instead of wins and losses," said Riddle. "This is a transition year. I think we'll see a lot of improvement this year that will be good for our program."
The Arabians have a solid crew returning from a season ago when they posted a 13-9 mark. But they must regain some momentum after winning just two of their final eight games.
"We return (Kiawna) Cottrell, (Taylor) Siefken, (Skyla) Baird and (Kelsey) Wendling," said PH coach Holly Hollinger. "My new faces include Sam Hammel, Adrianne Phillips and Kelsey Burton."

SI just released their preseason bowl projections, and while that may be an insane thought, in some ways it's better than a preseason top 25, because it's a projection of what type of season a team will have as opposed to the relative strength of one team vs. another. And where do our Terps check in?
Chick-fil-A: Maryland (ACC No. 2) vs. Mississippi State (SEC No. 5)
We're the #3 team in the ACC. He has VT as champion and FSU as a BCS at-large.

This week's Wednesday's Child features a brother/sister pair. And like most siblings, there's some arguing but they agree on one thing -- they both want a forever home.
Chelsey and Tyler probably weren't too excited about getting a history lesson at the old Mormon Fort, but they actually got into it once they saw all the cool stuff there.
Chelsey is 10 years old and Tyler 11 years old. They've had to put up with disappointment time and again with their own family.
"They had some parents who were unable to care for them, and they have siblings in a different state and the relatives weren't able to care for them after while. So now they're faced with being in our foster care system up for adoption to be in a forever family," said Andre, a Department of Family Services supervisor overseeing their foster care.
Tyler, especially, has disliked having to move over and over again. "What's hard about it? It's hard because you have to like keep packing up over and over again," Tyler said.
Luckily both these kids have found they're good at school. In addition, Chelsey loves horseback riding and Tyler is nuts about basketball. He plays almost every day.
"He wants to be a professional basketball player," Andre said.
To be all they can be, though, Chelsey and Tyler will need a permanent home where they can grow, be loved, and find structure.
"The support of a sibling connection is key, a home that's really going to open up and welcome them and include them into their home. They're both really wanting to be in their own home, and a family that's going to include them in all aspects of course through adoption is where they'll do best," explained Andre.
Chelsey and Tyler are free and clear for adoption as soon as possible. If you're interested, call the local office of the Adoption Exchange at 436-6335 to find out more.

Did you hear it? Google grows its appetite for content!
After gripping its noose over spamming and link quality Google has grown its appetite for words. Brief articles are slowly dying in their impact as Google now favors a deep topic research. It shouldn't surprise you since Google is super quick in rolling out new updates with quick succession. The year saw Google taking some big leaps with Penguin, Panda and Hummingbird updates that penalized webmasters practicing black-hat tricks to climb higher on SERP results.
Google's Hummingbird has made content quality all the more important. You must try and create more informative content; in-depth articles are in buzz at the moment, hence do thorough research and see to it that you cover different perspectives of a topic. Doing this helps you write more; but always keep in mind that your prime intention is not just adding words but sharing proper information.
Focus on writing in-depth articles, to rank better on Google
Writing and promoting quality content will keep your work evergreen and people will refer your write-up whenever they require. Now how much are you supposed to write? Ideally your article must have at least 2000 words. Did that make your head spin? Writing this big is definitely not an easy job but once done Google shall surely reward your effort with higher SERP rankings. This is exactly the reason why experienced content writers, especially the content writers in Mumbai are in high demand.
Once you come up with an article, you should emphasize on optimizing it. For this, work on developing good article marketing strategy. Titles you choose play a key role; hence use catchy title for your article. Mention the date you published your article and don't forget to give every paragraph a good sub-title. Incorporate descriptive images and add a proper summary at the end.
Now that's lot of work for you to handle but once you make sure that all above activities are done, your article will turn more appealing and will stay on Google's radar. Your efforts shall count, no doubt. Don't be hesitant; you may even share your burden and seek professional help from good content development companies in Mumbai. It's better to be safe than worried; a decent game-plan can aid your content promotions and help sustain good ranking for you on Google.

News: Waka Flocka Undresses Flirty Tweets W/ "Boy Meets World" Hottie
Friday, Mar 29, 2013 3:00PM
Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame has provided an explanation for heating up the Internet a few weeks ago by flirting with former child television star Danielle Fishel over Twitter.
Rather than feed into the romance hype, Flocka said he simply wanted to give the former "Boy Meets World" actress a shout-out.
Just a few days before Selena Gomez became a fixture on his timeline, Waka also sent a random tweet to "Boy Meets World" star Danielle Fishel, simply writing, "Squadd," which both confused and entertained the actress, who quickly responded to him. According to the ATL rapper, that was simply his way of saying, "I see you. It ain't like I wanna talk to you or nothing -- you pretty. I want you to know that from this direction we feel like you look like something. Keep your hustle on." (MTV)
Their extensive chit-chat was higlighted on multiple blogs earlier this month.
Twitter is such an incredible tool. Out of the blue today, Waka Flocka Flame decided to reach out to Danielle Fishel, the actress who plays Topanga on Boy Meets World. Perhaps he had just seen the pictures from her Maxim cover shoot. Maybe he was just trying to compete with Gucci Mane, whom has been linked with Selena Gomez in recent days. For whatever the reason, Flocka tweeted at Fishel, saying simply, "squadd." Fishel responded almost immediately, asking what "squadd" meant. After Fishel got an answer from a random spectator, Waka continued the conversation with another simple tweet, "Whaddup doe?" "Oh, not much. Just working," Fishel answered. "Waddup with you?" Flocka never did respond, but Fishel reacted to the conversation, shocked not only by the fact that she was talking to the Brick Squad rapper, but also to the reaction of everyone witnessing the conversation. (Complex)
Coincidentally, Waka's tweets came shortly after Fishel's steamy Maxim magazine photo shoot shots hit the Internet.
We were expecting a sudden press boom for Topanga, Cory, and the gang with a Boy Meets World sequel in the works. But we weren't necessarily expecting that press to come from Maxim. That said, Danielle Fishel is looking great in this pleasantly tasteful, though still quite sexy spread (it might even be safe for work). And not to pull the old "we bought it for the article!" excuse, but the interview isn't bad, either. Fishel opens up about tramp stamps and the fact that Topanga -- a name the producers picked off-the-cuff when creator Michael Jacobs was conveniently driving by Topanga Canyon in California -- is now a legitimate name. Plus, she tells one crazy Bob Saget story. Definitely worth a read if you can swing it, if not, at least ogle at her still-luscious hair in the slideshow. (Refinery 29)
Back in October, Waka revealed he had been in a relationship for nearly two years.
"I'm in a relationship," Waka said in an interview. "I've had a girl for almost two years. She's about that life. That small talk [about women] don't get her. ... I'm d*mn sure ain't going for Rihanna. H*ll nah. [Do I think Rihanna's bad?] H*ll nah. It ain't that I don't think she's bad, it's like, nah, brah. She's got history. You know what I mean? I don't know, I can't judge nobody. I don't know. You don't know what rocks to them, they're in their beds. So you don't know what's going on." ("The Breakfast Club")

Matt Birk is retiring Friday after 15 NFL seasons, a source told the Baltimore Sun. Birk spent 11 seasons with the Minnesota Vikings and his final four with the Super Bowl-champion Baltimore Ravens.
Birk, 36, had two years remaining on his contract.
The father of six and former NFL Man of the Year is scheduled to meet with students at a Baltimore elementary school Friday morning to dedicate a community reading center. The Ravens said Birk planned on "making another announcement" at the event.
"A guy like Ray Lewis, you send him off properly, press conferences, all that stuff," Birk told the Baltimore Sun ahead of the Super Bowl. "Guys like me, I just disappear, and then you're sitting around one day wondering, 'Hey, whatever happened to that guy whose locker used to be over here?'"
A little more than two years ago, Matt Birk was named one of the 50 Greatest Vikings of all time.

Most Irreal readers have probably already seen Mickey's post on Evaluating Lisp Forms in Regular Expressions, but he mentions one trick that is too good to miss so I'm going to repeat it.
Not too long ago I was trying to find a way to swap several occurrences of two words in a buffer (I think it was for the VimGolf lamb had a little Mary challenge). I did find a way but I wasn't very happy with it. In his post, Mickey shows a way that is, in retrospect, obvious but which didn't occur to me. Suppose you have
Jill and Jack went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Jill fell down and broke his crown and Jack came tumbling after.
and you want to switch Jill and Jack so that you have the traditional rhyme. Here's Mickey's trick: do a
replace-regexp (or
query-replace-regexp) with a FROM string of
and a TO string of
\,(if \1 "Jack" "Jill")
Notice that we capture only one subgroup and use it to determine which replacement word to use. If
\1 is
nil then we didn't match
Jill so we must have matched
Jack and we want to use
Jill as the replacement. On the other hand, if
\1 is not
nil then we matched
Jill and want to replace it with
Jack. Very nice.
Mickey's got some other nice tricks you can do with the form-based TO string in
replace-regexp so be sure to read his post if you haven't already.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
( Galangal )
The rhizomes are used in various Asian cuisines (for example in Thai and Lao tom yum and tom kha gai soups, Vietnamese cuisine and throughout Indonesian cuisine, for example, in soto). Though it is related to and resembles ginger, there is little similarity in taste.
In its raw form, galangals have a stronger taste than common ginger. They are available as a whole rhizome, cut or powdered. The whole fresh rhizome is very hard, and slicing it requires a sharp knife. A mixture of galangal and lime juice is used as a tonic in parts of Southeast Asia.

Catherineau Carves Niche in Aircraft Interiors
In business since 1750, family owned and operated Catherineau has been in the aircraft completions game for only 50 years. That is a relatively short chapter in the Catherineau history but nevertheless not insignificant, considering that business aviation was only just coming into its own 50 years ago. In 1750, and for centuries thereafter, Catherineau built fine furniture. Today, the company is focused on providing interior components for yachts and executive aircraft and has carved out an impressive niche for itself, working with OEMs such as Airbus, Dassault, Eurocopter and Daher-Socata. "We do bulkheads, tables, beds, every type of cabinetry appearing in an aircraft cabin," said director Anne-Sophie Catherineau. In fact, Catherineau does the entire TBM 850 interior for Daher-Socata.
Despite the recent recession and slow recovery, the company has continued to grow and recently doubled its floor space, moving into a new 43,055-sq-ft facility. The staff is currently nudging 90 people and Catherineau expects that figure to grow to 115 by 2014. "We were fortunate that when the recession began, most of our customers had a lot of backlog, much of it two or three years, and even this year we have lots of work," she said.

The announcement that Simon Gagne was available to the Los Angeles Kings for the Stanley Cup Finals raised a lot of eyebrows.
Having been sidelined since December 26 with a concussion, there were many who thought there was no chance that we'd be seeing Gagne on the ice again this season. However, a day away from Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals, it appears there still is such a chance.
Gagne was not on the top four lines during Kings practice at Prudential Center this afternoon, skating on a fifth line with regular scratches Kevin Westgarth and Andrei Loktionov. It appears that it'll take something more drastic to get Gagne back in the lineup before the series is out.
A reason he might even get a sniff at the lineup is his career success against Martin Brodeur and the Devils. Gagne has 22 goals in 55 career games against New Jersey.
The Kings made no major changes to their lines and pairings from Game 1.

Here's How Apple Protects Touch ID Fingerprint Data
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has released an iOS security white paper that reveals the extraordinary precautions the company has taken to ensure the security of the iPhone 5S Touch ID fingerprint scanner data, TechCrunch reports. When Apple first unveiled its biometric authentication system last year, some industry watchers raised questions about the potential security risks associated with storing an image of a user's fingerprint on a mobile device.
Sen. Al Franken wrote an open letter to Apple CEO Tim Cook last year outlining his concerns about the possibility that a hacker could steal a user's identity by acquiring his or her fingerprint. However, in the new security document, Apple outlined how it protects users' fingerprint images by encrypting the data and storing it in a separate "secure enclave" in the A7 chip.
Said Apple in the security document: "The Secure Enclave is a coprocessor fabricated in the Apple A7 chip. It utilizes its own secure boot and personalized software update separate from the application processor. It also provides all cryptographic operations for Data Protection key management and maintains the integrity of Data Protection even if the kernel has been compromised."
Not only is the data stored in the secure enclave protected from other operations performed by the A7 processor, the encrypted information is also inaccessible to Apple. "Each Secure Enclave is provisioned during fabrication with its own UID (Unique ID) that is not accessible to other parts of the system and is not known to Apple," according to Apple. "When the device starts up, an ephemeral key is created, tangled with its UID, and used to encrypt the Secure Enclave's portion of the device's memory space. Additionally, data that is saved to the file system by the Secure Enclave is encrypted with a key tangled with the UID and an anti-replay counter."

Those of you hanging around Royals Review two years ago might vaguely remember this fanpost. Someone under the moniker "husker1" was touting the 35th round pick, Chris Balcom-Miller, as a future "great pro." To quote:
great slider and awsome control has alot of movement on two seam fast ball he should move on fast ... in the Bigs soon......
Naturally, he was treated to a chorus of guffaws and scoffs. Understandable.
Balcom-Miller did not sign with Kansas City and re-entered the draft last summer after one season at West Valley Community College, where he earned Coast Golden Gate Conference Pitcher of the Year honors. He was drafted in the sixth round by the Colorado Rockies and immediately assigned to the Pioneer League of Rookie Ball, where he became the Pioneer League Pitcher of the Year with the following stats:
Dominant. CBM dealt with a foot injury this spring, so he didn't get into a game this season until May 15, but he has posted a 1.23 ERA and 1.35 FIP thus far over 2 starts and 7.1 IP. Purple Row caught CBM fever last fall and currently rates him as the 14th best prospect in the pitching-rich system in the community PuRP (Purple Row Prospects) list. Rox Girl, who has reported on prospects for the Rocky Mountain News and is as knowledgeable as they come about prospects, had a lot to say about CBM last fall. Here's a small sample:
Here's a guy that's running rings around the Pioneer League at 20 years old, having the most dominant season by a starter the league has seen this decade...I'm about ready to put him as high as my third best RHP prospect behind Chacin and Rogers, and I'm seriously contemplating whether he's not #2...What has to be clear right now is that CBM is a quality prospect. He may even be an elite prospect...we're looking at something exceptional...there's not much showing that CBM can't make the majors and there's quite a bit showing that he should have a pretty big impact there.
Glowing praise, certainly. Additionally, one PR community member watched Balcom-Miller in person in Casper. He came away impressed as well.
The purpose of this FanPost as a Rockies fan was not to rub KCFAN's nose in the lost prospect. The draft is a crapshoot, especially after 30ish rounds (and we passed up Evan Longoria and Tim Lincecum for Greg Reynolds). No, I have two reasons to spend my lunch break writing to you all. One - I find it fascinating to follow all players once linked to my team, and I suspect knowing this sort of thing would interest some of you.
Two - I have since discovered the identity of husker1. He is Chris Balcom-Miller's father. SBNation is a bigger deal than many of us realize (even two years ago), and you never really know who you are interacting with. I have received multiple emails from the father of Cole Garner, a AAA OF prospect with a .400 wOBA. Just keep that in the back of your mind. Blood breeds deep pride and faith, and there's certainly nothing wrong with that.
So with that, I'm through. I'm very relieved that the Royals didn't continue their frustrating hex on the Rockies this season, so now that the series is done, I can root for KC to do some damage in the AL Central. Hang in there guys. Dayton Moore can't be there forever.

Response to Intervention | News
A research center at the University of Oregon in Eugene has struck a deal with a major publishing company to sell and support a version of its learning management system. The university's College of Education Behavioral Research and Testing (BRT) group has signed with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's scoring and assessment imprint, Riverside, as the exclusive distributor of easyCBM.
easyCBM is a computer-administered application that helps users monitor progress of students based on specific assignments. Specifically, the program provides reporting on student performance and trends in real time to help teachers sort out where each child needs a boost in instruction. Developed in 2006, the latest version of this response to intervention program covers K-8 reading and mathematics for district wide implementation.
A "lite" version free to individual teachers is still available from the research group. According to BRT, the free version will be "streamlined with nine alternate forms per measure type." This edition will be suitable for the teacher to monitor the progress of a group of students.
The group stated in a frequently-asked-questions document on its website that the partnership was necessary because "the incredible success of easyCBM simply far exceeded BRT's capacity to support it." Riverside's hosting will include a toll-free support number and regional representatives who can help customers deploy the program and train users.
According to a statement from the company, 6.5 million easyCBM tests are being given each year, and 163,000 teachers use the data for their instruction. easyCBM is an approved tool by the National Center for Response to Intervention, an organization funded by the US Department of Education to provide technical assistance to states and districts in improving student learning.
"With [Houghton Mifflin Harcourt] serving as the exclusive distributor of easyCBM, teachers across the nation now have available a learning management system to use in their classrooms and schools," said Gerald Tindal, director of BRT. "It allows teachers and administrators to build effective programs and collaborate with each other using student performance and progress."

I took my wife to Hix to celebrate her birthday. We had a lovely evening – the atmosphere was vibrant without being overly noisy. The table we had had plenty of space – a pet hate of mine is top-end restaurants shoe-horning people onto tables the size of postage stamps. The service was excellent – attentive without being overbearing. The food was delicious. Thoroughly recommended

Dalton Dern
Dalton ollies to melon grab and holds on for what seems an eternity above a massive double set in Florida.
Now entering into his last year as a teenager, Florida's Dalton Dern is putting down some solid skate sessions on his skateboard. This young gun from the outskirts of Orlando enjoys getting down on his griptape whether it be a simple bank to wall, a twelve stair handrail, or a thirteen foot deep bowl. The truth is Dalton rips and his 10 years of skating it all backs up his diverse ability. His favorite spots to skate are often found around his home state in the cities of Daytona Beach, Lakeland, and Miami, but he's quick to point out that Atlanta has plenty of great spots that he's enjoyed as well.
Dalton's first experience on a skateboard took place on his older brother's 13th birthday around the time that the Vans Skatepark in Orlando had first opened and he decide to wanted to go there as well. He tried to roller blade at first and rolled a couple feet and immediately hated it – Dalton then opted to try skateboarding and started riding up and down every bank there. By the end of the night, he was hooked for life.
Dalton's direct skateboarding influences include Heath Kirchart, Lizard King, Andrew Reynolds, and Tony Hawk along with his close friends at home.
When it comes to food he isn't all that picky, but like most American teens, he prefers fast food, hamburgers, salmon, BBQ, and Italian fare – of course all with Coca~Cola!
Dalton to continues to push himself and those around him. He's a versatile young gun with lots of style, plenty of ambition and growth ahead of him. He a great fit with the Lifeblood squad and we're stoked to have him along for the ride.
Dalton's other sponsors include: Theeve trucks, Vendetta Grip, Globe (flow), Pro-tec and 187.
His words to live by? "Skate or Die!"

text: I was a freshman in college and writing for The Signal at Georgia State when he and Charlie Roberts asked me to cover high school and college sports for The Atlanta Constitution. I was shocked. I also thought they had given me a job as a real sportswriter. I later learned I was only one of many "stringers" they used to cover unimportant local games. It wasn't much, but my mom got to see my name on the byline of sports stories every weekend for several years.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Deron Williams gave Nets fans a bit of good news on Tuesday when he told Mike Mazzeo of ESPN New York that he's feeling no pain in his troubled ankles.
For more on this story, visit Nets Daily
The former Olympian has been dealing with inflammation in both ankles and has tried everything from a juice cleanse to get rid of excess weight to three sets of cortisone shots. It appears the last one worked.
"We finally got the injections in the right spot, and they feel a little bit better," Williams said on Tuesday. "I can actually walk up and down stairs and run around with my kids. I can go to the playground with them. I don't have to hurt every time I take a single step. So, yeah, I feel a lot better. I can dunk."
It was reported earlier that the All-Star couldn't dunk because of the injuries, but the fact that he now can following the treatment is a good sign for both he and the team as it makes its push into the Eastern Conference playoff picture.
Brooklyn is 34-26 and is situated in fifth place in the East. They are 5-5 in their last 10 games and have lost two straight. Williams is averaging 21.0 points, 7.0 assists and 4.0 turnovers per game in seven games played since the All-Star break.

Cara Brown, Principal
Company: Brown Economic Consulting, Calgary, Alberta
Contact Info: Tel: 403-571-0118 e-mail: email@example.com
Web site: www.browneconomic.com
Description: Brown Economic Consulting is a forensic economic organization that focuses on labour market trends and statistics. The firm provides unique economic indicators and assessments relevant to wages and labour market activities in the form of written reports that comply with court standards. It completes these economic assessments on behalf of lawyers and insurance companies to determine different factors, such as the value of loss of income and the value of loss of pension, when an individual's earnings have been interrupted due to anything from motor vehicle accidents to wrongful dismissal.
Background: After graduating with a Master of Arts degree in economics and law, Cara actually purchased the company from her thesis supervisor back in 1991, having run it for him since 1988. Not only has she grown the firm from zero to 12 employees, but she has also established branch offices in concert with 3 Ph.D economics professors in Kelowna, Halifax and in New Brunswick, written a book on economic assessments, Damages: Estimating Pecuniary Loss, and developed on-line software to calculate damages. Cara is a prolific writer and speaker, and has testified as an expert witness more than 100 times in courthouses across Canada and the U.S. "There are probably only three or four expert witnesses in the country that have as much trial experience," she says. Included among the high-profile cases she has worked on is the Milgaard family $10 million settlement.
Unique Feature: The firm's assessments are highly tailored to the individual and reports are heavily researched. "I have a library with 10,000 items in it, which is enormous for a company our size," says Cara. The firm writes reports that withstand court scrutiny; other witnesses will often downgrade strong opinions or conclusions as they wither under harsh cross-examination. This consistency has earned Brown the reputation as a credible and persuasive witness and resulted in a large volume of trial experience.
Competitive Advantage: With an in-house software engineer, Brown Economic has developed practical online calculators - some even free - that lawyers can use to do things like inflation and working life expectancy estimates in preparing for their cases.
Key Success Factors: Each report is written with a commitment to quality and excellence to meet court standards. "We could be required to testify, so one mistake, even small, could be very damaging," explains Cara. In addition, court-imposed deadlines must always be met - and are. "Our commitment to service - for example, not charging clients for small changes - is another success factor."
Biggest Challenge: Cara finds human resources the biggest challenge of growing a business. "Deep down I'm a producer, not a management type," she admits. "But I do it because the employees need company structure. I found that, after you have more than four or five employees, there is an exponential increase in the HR issues you must deal with. As a small business owner, it's difficult finding that balance between doing the work and managing your company. There's a constant tension in setting boundaries around what's best for you and your bottom line versus what employees may expect - which may not necessarily be realistic for a small business." Recruiting and retaining employees has also been a struggle. "I've been in a tight labour market here in Calgary since start-up where economists are easily lured to the big oil companies with deeper pockets and many benefits. At the end of the day, this kind of work is best suited for people who are intrinsically motivated, who understand the high level of accountability that comes with billable work and the reward of contributing to a small business' success." Some of the strategies Cara has used to tackle HR challenges include working on her own personal growth, getting advice from a professional business coach, and holding employee retreats.
Gender Roadblocks: Being taken seriously as an expert witness in court was difficult for Cara when she first started testifying as a young woman in her 20's. "I was na�ve in thinking that being young and blonde wasn't an issue," she admits. "It was an uphill battle fighting the image and being accepted as credible and persuasive." Today Cara has a reputation as one of the top expert witnesses in her niche. "In some ways, being a woman has been an advantage because I tend to go the "extra mile."
Biggest Lesson Learned: Looking back, Cara wishes she had better prepared herself for success. "When starting out, I defined success as etching out a "good living' for just myself and believed that anticipating hiring staff was too optimistic or arrogant," she confesses. Cara failed to recognize the fact that her track record as a credible expert witness would attract so much business so quickly. "I didn't say my expectations out loud and embrace them. I should have looked at the fact that I had been in this industry seven years and had a great deal of name recognition. With no employees or proper business planning, I was not prepared at all, and so I was absolutely overwhelmed in the first six months. It was probably the hardest time." Her advice to other women starting out? "If going for the sun and moon is realistic, embrace it!"
Growth Tips:
Future Plans: Cara would like to increase her company's presence in B.C and expand into Ontario, likely through the opportunity for clients to use the firm's on-line calculators. As clients prefer expert witnesses to be located in the province in which they testify, she is seeking partners in Ontario.
Personal Interests: A highly competitive Ringette player since she was eight years old, Cara has been both a national and international champion multiple times, was nominated to Ringette Canada's Hall of Fame, and named in the 2000 edition of Who's Who in Canadian Sport. As it was difficult to give the sport the dedication necessary to compete and also manage the business, she hung up her skates in 2000 and now focuses on golf as a hobby. She has a loving and supportive partner of 12 years. "In not desiring to have children, it's been easier for me than for women with kids who do sacrifice some accomplishments to give time to their families."
How RBC Royal Bank Helps: Cara has been a client since 1995. "Early on, I was looking for a small business loan to purchase equipment and RBC gave me that first chance. They were a lot more helpful than the other banks I approached, that's for sure."

MADISON (WKOW) -- Freezing rain in north central Wisconsin has canceled Gov. Scott Walker's trip to Wausau, closed schools, and detoured highway traffic.
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation temporarily closed Highway 47 in both directions Tuesday morning between Neopit and the Langlade County line because of ice.
Dangerous travel conditions closed some schools Tuesday, including Antigo, Adams-Friendship, Crandon and Rhinelander.
The governor had a scheduled trip to Wausau, as part of several stops around the state to announce the new CEO of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. The weather caused the Gov. Walker to cancel the stop.
Snow is expected to develop later Tuesday and continue to fall through Wednesday. 27 Storm Track meteorologist Brian Olson expects five to seven inches of snow accumulation on Wednesday in the Madison area.

THOMASVILLE, GA (WALB) –For the second time in two months, Thomasville is mourning the loss of a hometown soldier.
25-year old Specialist Shannon Chihuahua, an Army medic, died while treating a wounded soldier last week in Afghanistan.
We spoke to his family Tuesday as they remembered the man who they say loved being soldier.
"I love daddy!" exclaims 3-year old Sophia Chihuahua. She can't quite grasp the sacrifice her father made for his country.
"I can't express how proud of him I am. How selfless he was," says her mother, Kristen Chihuahua. "He loved this country and he believed in what he was fighting for. It meant so much to him for his daughters to be whatever they dreamed they could be."
Shannon Chihuahua, an Army medic, died in Afghanistan after his unit was attacked by insurgents using small arms fire and rocket propelled grenades. He was fatally wounded while helping a fellow soldier.
"Part of the soldier's creed is never leave a fallen comrade," explains Shannon's sister, Jessica Frausto. "Every day he went out and lived up to those words."
His mother Denise Jenkins adds, "When he was a little boy, he said he wanted to be a doctor. At first I thought about him being so clumsy. But he proved to me he could and made us all proud."
Shannon's family says fond memories are helping them through this painful time.
"He was just always doing silly things that made you laugh. He was a really fun kid," says his brother, Eric Chihuahua.
Another sister, Christina Smith remembers, "When my mom was pregnant with him, I wanted a little sister. I was like, if it's a girl we're going to name her Shanna. But if it's a boy, we're going to name him Shannon. So that was his name and he always said why did you have to give me a girl's name?"
Shannon leaves behind Sophia and 4-month old Annabelle, a daughter he only got to spend two weeks of her life with. But his wife Kristen says she'd rather be a single mother than not have them at all.
"I'm just so grateful for that because I look at my children and see my husband's face," she says.
And his family wants his daughters to know he died a hero.
"I want everyone to know that he loved being a soldier," says Frausto.
Leaving behind a legacy for a proud family.
Specialist Chihuahua will be laid to rest after a public funeral at Thomas County Central High School.
The date has not been announced.
The community is planning a flag parade like the one held in late September for another fallen hero, Senior Chief Petty Officer Blake McLendon.

University academics enjoy positive reviews
9:34am Thursday 6th February 2014 in News
A book rated by publishers as one of the top five education titles of the year was the work of two local academics.
Scott Buckler and Paul Castle, from the University of Worcester, have collaborated to write a textbook called Psychology for Teachers which explains how psychology can be applied in the classroom to meet the needs of different learners.
Dr Buckler, senior lecturer in the Institute of Education, and Dr Castle, senior lecturer in the Institute of Sport and Exercise Science, have spent three years working on the book, which combines their respective expertise.
Among the themes of the book is the need to develop mindfulness with learners and combining the understanding of neurological, cognitive, emotional and social development in learners, with an understanding of applied psychology in both learners and teachers.
Dr Buckler said: "The book is supported by research findings and an awareness of what goes into high quality teaching.
"Our focus is to enable teachers to develop an informed educational philosophy and personal psychology, and this is achieved through reflections, activities and an accompanying website of resources – sagepub.co.uk/bucklercastle."
Dr Castle added: "The inclusion of applied psychological techniques throughout the book enables readers to develop their own psychological approach to the classroom and wider aspects of teaching.
"In doing so, the teacher is better able to operate successfully within their profession."
The book was released this week and rated by publishers Sage as one of their top five.
It had already been requested by over 150 academics across the country.
Dr Ioanna Palaiologou, a chartered psychologist at the University of Hull, called it a "must read book."

Those of you on Tweedle-dee-Twitter may have seen some of the exchanges yesterday and today about the Freeh report, Lubrano's postings on BWI, and the comments on other sites. A number of the comments prompted me to raise my eyebrows, so I figured I'd put them up here for the BSD community to look at and comment on.
I'm hoping this thread doesn't delve into the usual fight and get shut down. Instead, I'd like for it to serve as an information aggregate until the report is released to the public. And yes, there's the possibility that some of these comments aren't worth what we paid for them, but as we've seen from our own 'insiders', some of these are accurate.
Lubrano comments and hypotheticals, parts 1 & 2:
Part 1 on what Spanier may have known: http://www.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=36&mid=155792630&sid=890&tid=155778223&style=1

text: I know the Mavericks draft is hard to get remotely excited about, because of no 1st round pick. However, I love to draft talk and I was hoping to get some better opinions from the LSB nation. Any thoughts out there as to how to improve the Mavericks (yes, sign LeBron and Bosh would be great, but it's not happening). I would like to see the Mavericks target a player and try to move into the late 1st round to help build young players to contribute. What about Craig Brackins, Elliot Williams or Devin Ebanks?

Okay, so I was in England during the 2007 season, week 4, where we actually won in San Diego. But none the less. I've been to 4/5 of the games in San Diego in the last 5 years, and Kansas City still cannot pull off a win. I was in the endzone where Thiggy threw incomplete to Tony G with the 2 point conversion. I was there when we lost by 11 points in a horribly boring game. I was there when Cassel fumbled the ball away countless times.
They were all absolutely terrible. Horrible, horrible feelings. This year, things were gonna be different.
My day started out by giving my best friend my Charles jersey to wear. He's actually a Falcons fan but since we were going to SD he knew I was goin to be outnumbered and picked on so he helped me out. He actually loves Charles so it was a fair trade.
It started off like it was planned. Up at 630, leave by 730, arrive in SD by 9 to start tailgating.
Here's me, my best friend and my brother. Yes, he's a Charger fan.
So we tailgate for a few hours and I get drink offers from my fellow Chiefs brothers and sisters, denying most of them because I want to keep a level head, careful that I don't know anyone's heads off. Get into the stadium and take a few pictures with my other friends before we get our seats.
(The guy in the Gates jersey is actually a diehard Cowboys fan, and his gf in the Cassel jersey is a real Chiefs fan. He suprised her by taking her to the game and I let her wear it for the day).
So we get to our seats and get to know the people behind us. The hot milf for instance that was extremely superstitious, and the drunk Charger fan that would scream "FELIPPEEE!" everytime that bastard Rivers did something.
Front row, 35 yard line.
Needless to say, I only took a few more photos. The game started off bad, got worse, got ugly, then got downright impossible. The one name that I kept hearing, no matter what, was Eric Berry. Dude was flying around today, trying to make plays, but still couldn't keep the team afloat.
Our offense was dead, our defense was dead, our coaches were flat. Haley was walking with a horrible limp again, and wasn't screaming at our offense (I think I made up for it though). Everything that could have went wrong, did. Murphys law, or as I've come to call it, Chiefs Law.
At the end of the day, I held out my Flowers jersey and a sharpie, screaming for anyone to come over. Nobody did. Everyone just hung their head and walked to the locker room. Except for 2 players that I didn't notice. The first was Verran Tucker, who was near the 15 yard line trying to get a few autographs in. The other? Eric Berry. Signin as many as he could. I screamed my head off for him, but he sadly couldn't get to me. The coaches were rushing him back into the locker room where he was probably gonna get his ears screamed off. He apologized repeatedly and said thanks for comin out and supporting his team.
My two friends, the cowboys fan and his girlfriend that wore my Cassel jersey came running over and threw the jersey at me. What does it have on it?
Eric Berrys autograph. I know it's on a Cassel jersey, but I've been pulling for this kid since we got Mike Brown.
I didn't get a win out of my Chiefs in San Diego. We played with our backup QB (who doesn't deserve half the blame he's getting btw), and just came out flat. The Chargers destroyed us in all aspects of the game. This made my day a bit better though.
Every year I come to watch my Chiefs get beat. I spend hundred of dollars on tickets, gas, food, parking, etc. And every year I walk away disappointed. This year was the worst, because I know we are a better team than the Chargers. We're going to the playoffs, and it hurt to see us lose this one. I know we were the underdogs, but how many fans actually want to admit the fact that we're probably gonna lose a game?
None the less, I see my Chiefs once a year, and I'm grateful. Be happy guys, we're still on top. We make our break our own destiny. If we start giving up on the Chiefs, they'll give up on us. Hold your heads high, we can grieve for a few hours, but it's back to work this weak. We're taking the governers cup, and we're gonna kick ass the last three games of the season. We're gonna go into the playoffs and hold it down. We're gonna go to the superbowl and smack around anyone that doubts us.
Not saying we're going to the superbowl or anything, just trying to get a few of you to lift your spirits. Let's go guys.

MSU spring draft, rosters, starters
Interesting bits from Rexrode: Trenton Robinson was the second player chosen overall, Caulton Ray (whom I didn't mention in yesterday's preview) was the first RB taken, Brian Linthicum was taken before Garrett Celek at TE, and neither QB was drafted until the 17th (!) round. Adam Rittenberg was also there and has a nice take at ESPN.

Hello. My name is Rachel Silberman. I'm a front-end designer that loves to move forward with technology.
As a front end web designer, my objective is to have a positive impact on clients, colleagues, and the Internet by using my skills and experience to design compelling and unique websites. I enjoy working on projects independently as well as with others that involve a mix of web and graphic design, web development, and database management. My goal-oriented nature and enjoyment for learning leads me to the finish line in a timely manner.

After Effects
A debut author published under Walker Books wanted a website that connected with her work and personal style.
Leah Miller wanted a fun layout that linked to her book which is about comic book geeks. I implemented that into the header / background. An animation is also on the homepage.
Author Mike Mullin wanted a clean and elegant layout to convey his book Ashfall. He imported his blog from Blogger to this new WordPress site.
I was contacted by Lili Peloquin, a new Penguin author to create an interactive and age appropriate website for her readers to easily navigate. The design and coding created was to ensure the author's readers an engaging website. Lili loves her new website and is excited about the new branding.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show's cast Transvestite Soup (located in Minneapolis) wanted a website that conveyed who they are. I was responsible for designing, coding, and writing content. Expected launch date May 2013.
I like to work in After Effects, and this is one of my accomplishments. I choose The Lion King scene because it makes me a little emotional. The video was created for my Computer Graphics class, and it was fun to dabble into the After Effects program.

With players acting like high-priced escorts, the two days of free-agency has left many in a bit of a sour mood, myself included. What ever happened to loyalty? The biggest free-agent of our generation, Michael Jordan, didn't start shopping himself on the market after the Bulls lost to the Magic in the Eastern Conference Finals in 1995, nor did Isaiah Thomas, Larry Bird or Magic Johnson.
As rumours swirl regarding Stoudemire leaving Phoenix for New York, our very own free-agent held a 2 hour and 40 minute long meeting and found the Knicks' presentation to be the most impressive. In other news, Bryan Colangelo is apparently targeting David Lee who has the Raptors low on his wishlist. Could a sign-and-trade be …Continue Reading
I'm very happy that Amir Johnson is returning to the Raptors, but let's start with addressing the "overpayment". Don't get me – or anyone else who is opposed to Colangelo throwing out money like it's of the Monopoly type – wrong, but does one season of averaging 6.2 points and 4.8 rebounds warrant this kind of money, or is this contract based entirely on potential and not proven worth?

CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. (WRIC)—Chesterfield County Fire Marshals have determined that fireplace ashes caused a house fire on Monday afternoon.
At 3:47 p.m. on Feb. 17, the Chesterfield County Department of Fire & Emergency Medical responded to a home at 9024 Pepperidge Road for a report of a fire. The blaze had taken over the basement and first floor of the residence, and crews found heavy smoke coming from the home upon their arrival. It took nearly a half hour to get the blaze under control, and the house suffered significant damage.
The Greater Richmond Chapter of the American Red Cross is assisting the three adults and one child who were displaced by the fire.
On Tuesday morning, the Chesterfield Fire & EMS announced that the fire was accidental, caused by fireplace ashes that had been placed in a basement trash can.
Chesterfield Fire & EMS said in a press release, "Fire officials would like to remind you that fireplace ashes should be placed in a metal container and removed from the home. Once outside the home, it is always a good practice to wet down the ashes thoroughly to ensure they have been extinguished."

The Grand Hotel was first opened in Torquay in 1881, in response to the Great Western Railway's expansion into Devon and Cornwall. Its striking Victorian architecture, elegant interiors, fantastic seafront location and award-winning food has earned it pride of place as Torquay's landmark hotel for over 130 years.
Originally built with just 12 bedrooms, The Grand has been expanded several times to reach its present size of 132 bedrooms. The current owner, Mr Keith Richardson, bought the hotel in 2001, when it became the flagship hotel of the Richardson group of hotels. Mr Richardson undertook an extensive refurbishment to the hotel, in order to pay homage to its elegant Victorian architecture and Art Deco interiors.
During the first half of the 20th century, The Grand was regularly the venue for television and radio programme broadcasts and during World War 2 was requisitioned by the Royal Air Force, re-opening as a hotel in 1946. The beach right in front of the hotel was once the site of a late medieval harbour and this maritime tradition has continued, with the more recent development of Torquay Marina (a 10 minute stroll along the seafront from The Grand), and regular large ships and Royal Navy vessels anchoring further out in the bay.
The Grand has welcomed many famous guests throughout its illustrious history, including the world famous 'Queen of Crime', Agatha Christie (who spent her honeymoon here) and international music icons such as the Rolling Stones.
The Grand has a unique association with the much-loved authoress Agatha Christie, as the place where she spent her honeymoon in 1914. In recognition of that The Grand Hotel has a bedroom suite named after her. The Agatha Christie suite can comfortably accommodate up to 5 people, it consists of a double bedroom, a twin bedroom, a lounge which has a sofa bed and a spacious bathroom. The suite is decorated in an style that reflects her literary prowess. The room rate, including a full Westcounty breakfast, starts from £250 – £359 for the entire suite per night.

We've been looking for cool ways to promote the CGB way of life; with UC Eugene fully in our category, we look to conquer and occupy with an inane fist. Seriously, Twist wakes up at 5 in the morning every day, and leaves a message on my answering machine with one of the two following phrases:
I can tell the Tyrant King is very agitated, and he's ready to expand the empire. So here's the first step is the step all manical madmen must take on the first step to power--T-shirts. Who's up for buying some?
Here was my really dopey idea (thought the blue rose was a nice touch, although I don't know how many people buy gold t-shirts):
Technically it's been fifty-one years, but fifty rolls off the tongue better, so we'll just assume it refers to the fifty years of drought (1959-2008). Of course, we'd find a way better design.
Here are other ideas floating around.
*Some fancy jet painted in blue or gold (danzig, what was your favorite figher jet again?) plastered with a gold or blue #4 on it somewhere)
*A squid entangling a football in his grasp..and the tentacles sort of look like Syd'Quan's dreads...we can put a #5 somewhere on there ... (this might take some talent, anyone know any good artists/Cal fans?) *Any of the catchphrases/taglines that people here are so fond of.
We'll try to do something similar to the Hall of Fame idea in this thread. Ideas that get rec'd the most we'll try our best to push through.
If anyone comes up with any cool designs that everyone likes, we'll try our best to get them distributed, and find a good way to split it between creator, us, and the T-shirt distributors. Since this is our first go-around at it we might try and start with only two or three T-shirt designs
Several questions to ponder:
1) Does anyone know a good online T-shirt design site and/or store to buy custom-designed T-shirts?
2) How much would you be willing to pay for them?
3) Anyone know any good artists who are also diehard Cal fans? Please let them know and tell them to post sample t-shirt designs on this thread!
4) Would people be more willing to buy taglined t-shirts (cheaper, but more obscure) or t-shirts with some sort of image or visual depiction (more expensive but probably easier to relate to fellow Cal fans)?
Let's discuss. Who wants shirts?

Here I was again, sat in the bath actually taking time to treat myself and have a long soak after a typical day spent running around after my daughter, looking after the house, feeding my addiction (on Ciao of course) and oh… yes, a confession… a little old-fashioned shopping too. Can you believe in this day and age that we internet junkies actually visit real high street stores?, the actual stress involved in par-taking in such an event for me is that I have to go through the painful process of logging off of AOL and hear Connie say 'goodbye' to me, nothing to do with finding a car park space or stressing in the queues lol!
So I reached out my hand and grabbed my new bottle of Avon Herbal Care Lavender & Honey shampoo and proceeded to rub in to my locks. After only a couple of rubs, I was rudely interrupted by a rather nasty stinging sensation in my right eye. So with a white lathered mass on my bonce and only my left eye to guide me I rummaged under the layer of bubbles in search of the flannel. After a couple of minutes nursing this eye to rinse out what was obviously a sneaky helping of Avon shampoo that had run down my face without my noticing, I was slowly beginning to regain my sight when <god damn it> it started to plague my left eye. By this time all enjoyment of having a so-called relaxing treat in the bath was fading fast and I was getting pretty peeved to say the least, as I had managed to use this shampoo a few times prior without getting it in my bloody eyes. So after unintentionally bathing my eyes instead of my hair lol, I gave another couple of rubs to my head and quickly rinsed it out for fear of it setting and losing my hair.
Now I don't know about you guys, but having already admitted that I'm an addict of Ciao, despite actually experiencing a few minor discomforts during this daily session of cleansing, my mind actually drifted onto Ciao whilst sat in the tub!! I suddenly became possessed and starting scanning my bathroom for products that I could write opinions on?!? Now of course, my main reason for exiting the bath so quickly was that of being hacked off experiencing something that I would often tell my daughter to 'stop whinging about', 'it doesn't hurt really darling <grimace>' 'the flannel will make it better'. But the other reason was yes, sad I know… to actually type this opinion for you guys to read before I forgot about the whole saga.
The only thing that I would say I'm not so keen on is the fact that the normal RRP is £2.19. I know I'm a sucker for special deals and introductory offers and yes, this product is good, but I feel a little unsure as to whether I would buy it at this price for the main reason that I don't normally part with this much on shampoo products. But… with Avon having regular sales I doubt it will be too much longer before they please me with their 99p offer again anyway.
