"Rob is absolutely awesome and has been easy to work with. He has an open door policy and wants to do whatever it takes to help coaches from paper work to recruiting. He knows his stuff."
-- UTC receivers coach Will Healy on Mocs new compliance director Rob Robinson
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga receivers coach Will Healy has a new boss.
Don't Panic I – Russ Huesman is still the Mocs head football coach.
Mocs wrestling coach Heath Eslinger, men's golf coach Mark Guhne and the other head coaches also have a new boss.
Don't Panic II – UTC athletics director David Blackburn still occupies the "oval office" on the McKenzie Arena fourth floor and has not journeyed back up I-75 to Big Brother in Knoxville.
"The boss" is new assistant athletics director for compliance is Rob Robinson who was hired last month after working at the U. of Oklahoma the previous 15 months.
The Lookout Mountain native and graduate of Lookout Mountain School (1997), Baylor School (2004) and U. of Tennessee (2008) not only holds a law degree from Knoxville, but also has gained a wealth of knowledge and experience in a short amount of time.
"Having worked such a high profile university as Oklahoma in a big time conference, Rob has made so many contacts across the country and knows what schools are doing in the areas of compliance and recruiting all over the country," said Healy who also serves as the football program's recruiting coordinator.
Robinson and his staff monitor all recruiting activities in the UTC 17-sport program along with providing rules education and interpretations for coaching and athletic staff members. His office also tracks initial eligibility, financial aid and roster management for all student-athletes.
"I was impressed that Rob had amassed such a great quality of NCAA Division I Compliance experience from his internship at Tennessee and his work at Oklahoma in such a short amount of time," said Laura Herron, UTC senior women's administrator and former interim athletics director. "His experience coupled with his law degree and the fact that he was a Chattanooga native made him a great fit for UTC as our Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance."
A three-sport athlete at Baylor, Robinson sees his role as one of helping coaches in all aspects of the recruiting process and maintaining control of the mission of the university.
"It is important for me to build a trust factor with our coaches and help them anyway we can, yet knowing that at times I will have to make tough decisions and say no," Robinson stated.
Whether it is interpreting the vast amount of NCAA rules to dealing with the ever-growing and changing world of social media, Robinson and his staff are in place to assist and support the coaches in furthering a positive image for the university as current and future student-athletes and their parents see the "Power C" as a symbol of consistency, control and caring.

Cherry quick to credit 'players' for his life story's success on TV
There's certainly a lot more of his story to be told, but Don Cherry is quick to admit he's a bit surprised that he and his son, Tim, are getting the chance to tell it.
"I don't think a second one was in the plan at all," Cherry said of the shot-in-Winnipeg TV-drama sequel The Wrath of Grapes: Keep Your Head Up, Kid -- Part 2, which will premiere March 25 on CBC. "I think it was just because the first one did so well, so somebody came up with the idea of doing a second one. To me, because the first one was so good, you don't want to do a second one, but my son convinced me.
"I haven't seen it yet, but my son told me it's as good as the first one, and if it's as good as the first one, I'm happy."
Keep Your Head Up, Kid: The Don Cherry Story was a ratings winner for CBC, attracting more than 1.3 million viewers when it aired last year. The new drama will examine Cherry's transition from coaching in the NHL to becoming one of Canada's most controversial hockey commentators, thanks mostly to his ongoing Coach's Corner segment on Hockey Night in Canada.
During a telephone interview last week from Toronto, site of CBC's winter-schedule launch, the 77-year-old Canadian sports icon said much of the credit for the first mini-series' success belongs to actor Jared Keeso and Sarah Manninen, who played Don and Rose Cherry (Keeso reprises his role in the sequel).
"It was really something, and I think Jared had a lot to do with it," said Cherry. "It's the only time, I think, when the actor could skate better than the guy he's playing. I think it's a credit to both of them that the thing went off so well.
"My wife, Rose, had a Pennsylvania accent, and Sarah had it down perfectly. My daughter helped to make sure she wore the right clothes to look like Rose.... I think the fact it was a success had a lot to do with those actors."
Cherry added that he never would have agreed to have his life story turned into a TV drama if son Tim hadn't been the driving force behind its production and the scriptwriter on the project.
"It was Tim's thing," he said. "That was the idea, that Tim was going to write it. The fact that we could talk it over -- 'What do you think of this scene?; What do you think of that scene?' -- was the reason that I did it. Like a lot of people, I really didn't want to show a lot of my personal life, but once we got started, it was OK. There were some scenes where I went, 'Are we really going to put that in there?' but we did, and it turned out good."
Cherry also said he's glad the mini-series and its sequel were shot in and around Winnipeg, because of the way the community supported both projects.
"We had more people who wanted to be extras than we needed, and we sure got some great hockey players," he said. "When I was out there, they all looked like American League hockey players. The arenas out there were just perfect, too. Tim really enjoyed it there. Everybody was excited about it -- I don't know how it would have been in Toronto, where everybody's so cynical about everything."
And speaking of Winnipeg, Grapes, how 'bout those Jets?
"I think they're doing a great job; I liked their uniforms right off the bat," he said. "Those games they were losing at the start, they were only losing by one goal. They're a hard-working bunch, and they never quit. I'm kind of concerned about the (number of) penalties they're getting, but they're fun to watch.
"I'll cheer for that team anytime, except when they're playing the Boston Bruins."

* Mandatory
After the outbreak of the Pacific war, the Commonwealth Government requisitioned the MCG for military purposes.
From 1942 until 1945 it was progressively occupied by the US Army Air Forces, the Royal Australian Air Force, the US Marine Corps and again the RAAF.
More than 200,000 personnel regarded the ground as their home away from home.
From April to October 1942, the US Army's Fifth Air Force occupied the ground in what was affectionately known as Camp Murphy, named in honour of officer Colonel William Murphy, a senior USAAF officer killed in Java.
Most famously in 1943 the MCG was home to the legendary First Regiment of the First Division of the United States Marine Corp.
The First Marine Corp were the heroes of the battle of Guadalcanal (later Okinawa) and used the "cricket grounds", as the marines referred to it, to rest and recuperate.
In 1942 and 1943, Melburnians en masse proved wonderful hosts to the soldiers and marines. Melbourne was described as the "best liberty port in the world."
Hundreds of servicemen were taken into Melburnians' homes and softball and gridiron matches were played on the MCG.
On March 14, 1943 the marines hosted a giant "get together" of US and Australian troops on the arena.
In 1977, Melbourne Cricket Club president Sir Albert Chadwick and Congressional Medal of Honour winner Colonel Mitchell Page unveiled a commemorative plaque recognising the Americans' time at the ground.
Whilst the ranks of US soldiers and marines and their Melbourne hosts have thinned, and with that first-hand memories of Camp Murphy and the "cricket grounds", it remains a very proud chapter in the MCC and MCG's history.

Having no geopolitical importance, GUAM was formed to ruin CIS
November 1, 2007 - 16:18 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - "Georgia's domestic tensions will not change the balance of forces in the region, just as GUAM activities. Having no geopolitical importance, GUAM was formed to ruin the CIS," Ruben Safrastyan, Director of the Institute of Oriental Studies, told a news conference in Yerevan.
"The Saakashvili regime is alive thanks to U.S. financial assistance. Even if it collapses nothing will change in Georgia," he said.
When commenting on closure of U.S. and British Embassies in Azerbaijan, Dr Safrastyan said, "The Islamic factor is gaining weight in Azerbaijan. This is not anti-Americanism, this is radical Islamism. Although Baku's attempts to weaken it prove fruitless, wahhabits have no influence on political regime in the republic yet."

Victor Valdes knee injury likely ends Barça career, World Cup hopes
Mar 26, 2014, 7:32 PM EST
Victor Valdés had always intended to move on from Barcelona after this season, but carted off the field in late March is not the way he intended to leave the only club he's ever known. Yet there he was, forced to the ground in his own penalty box after coming down awkwardly on his right knee. With his team up 1-0 in the first half against Celta, the 32-year-old's Barça career was done.
There was no contact, no great excursion – no reason why somebody who was in line to play for Spain at this summer's World Cup should have to leave Wednesday's fight half. He just "landed wrong," a description better suited for a junior high basketball court than something that will sideline one of the world's more famous goalkeepers.
But unless Barcelona's initial diagnosis proves completely off base, Valdés will certainly be sidelined. According to the club's website, the keeper suffered a tear of his right anterior cruciate ligament and will need surgery. He'll almost certainly miss the end of the season, the World Cup, and will search for his new club while recovering from an injury suffered in his last play with Barcelona.
Víctor Valdés suffered an ACL tear on 22 minutes after saving a free kick from Augusto. The Club's Medical Services confirm that he will need surgery. The keeper fell awkwardly on his right leg, forcing him to ask to be substituted. He was subbed off two minutes later for Pinto while he was being carted off the pitch of the Camp Nou.
The normal course of action is to undergo surgery in the next few days, but with this season serving as Valdés's farewell to the Nou Camp, more attention will be focused on the keeper's long-term future. He'd been linked most prominently with Monaco, but coming off a major injury, that speculation may shift.
For now, we await a prognosis on how long Valdés will be out.

If Monaco and Europe don't want you, Victor, then Major League Soccer is a real good option.

World Cafe Live Philadelphia Presents
Chuck Prophet & The Mission Express
Andy Friedman
World Cafe Live Philadelphia
3025 Walnut Street
Philadelphia, PA, 19104
Doors 7:00 PM / Show 8:00 PM
This event is all ages
Night Surfer, the thirteenth studio album for acclaimed singer, songwriter and performer Chuck Prophet, will be released September 23 on Yep Roc Records. In advance of the release, the first single, "Wish Me Luck," premiered today at WSJ's Speakeasy. The single is also now available as an instant download with all album pre-orders.
Night Surfer was recorded in Prophet's hometown of San Francisco at Decibelle Recording Studio and in Nashville at Alex the Great with noted producer Brad Jones and was mixed in upstate New York by Paul Q Kolderie. Of the album, Prophet comments, "This record is loosely conceptual but universal all the same. It's all about a path forward, about looking around and imagining where we'll be in 20 years if we just follow that path. And of course, you'll find a persistent anxiety throughout; we live, after all, in anxious times. As John Murry told me after a first listen, 'It brings a tear to the eye and blood to the johnson.'" So yeah, a new record, new sound. It's got it's own groove with in your face guitars that snake and harmonize. They jangle too, thanks in no small part to special guest Peter Buck."
The new record follows Prophet's widely praised 2012 release, Temple Beautiful, of which Paste Magazine asserted, "Not since Lou Reed paid homage to the city and era that forged him with New York has there been a song cycle dedicated to a place and reality that offers the core immediacy with the thump, churn and ferocity of Chuck Prophet's Temple Beautiful."
Since emerging onto the music scene at age 18 as a member of the seminal rock band Green on Red, Prophet has collaborated with everyone from Warren Zevon and Kelly Willis to Jim Dickinson and Lucinda Williams among many others. In recent years, Prophet's music has been featured in several hit television series including HBO's "True Blood," Showtime's "Californication," and FX's "Sons of Anarchy." He also co-wrote all the songs on Alejandro Escovedo's 2008 critically acclaimed album Real Animal.

Van der Garde expects Caterham to be closer to pace in Hungary
Jul 23, 2013, 9:00 AM EST
Giedo van der Garde says the nature of the Hungaroring layout should allow Caterham to be more competitive this weekend.
Van der Garde likened the track layout to Monaco, where he started 15th following a rain-hit qualifying session.
"The Hungaroring is a track I've always gone well at," he said, "I've won races and had podiums there in GP2 and [Formula Renault 3.5] and now, in F1, it's tight, twisty and a relatively short lap so it's a bit like Monaco without the barriers.
"We obviously had our best quali result of the year so far in Monaco and while I doubt the weather will play its part in Hungary as it did on Saturday in Monaco, the track layout and characteristics are still kind of similar and the length of the lap and the reduced reliance on pure aero performance may help us edge closer to the cars ahead."
Van der Garde said the team have been "aggressively" developing the CT03 since Bahrain and will have more new parts for this weekend's race.
Caterham are last in the championship after nine rounds. They have finished ahead of Marussia in the last two races but need to finish 13th or higher to move ahead of them for tenth in the championship.

A trim figure in chef's whites and cargo shorts, chef Mitch SuDock makes his way through the dining room of his 4-month-old restaurant, Mitch & Toni's American Bistro in Albertson.

New Wii boxes, just like the old boxes [update 2]
The boxes for three more Wii games have been finalized -- Metal Slug Anthology, Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam and Monster 4x4 World Circuit all got the stamp of officialized boxart love from IGN. Since none of these games are unique to the Wii, the boxes are no great revelation, but they're pretty because they're ours.
[Update 1: Seems there are multiple versions of the Tony Hawk box floating around. Some have the WiFi logo and some don't. Could the logo be a mistake from someone putting the boxart together and not paying attention, or is it a sign of things to come? We're looking into it.]
[Update 2: Spoke with our Activision rep, who indicated that any boxes floating around with the WiFi logo must be placeholders -- nothing has changed in regard to the lack of WiFi support for the Wii at this time. And we were so excited. Beware, beware of placeholder boxes! Thanks to our eagle-eyed readers on this one.]

'I was set up as a hate figure': Hilary Mantel defends criticism of Kate Middleton
Award-winning novelist says she has "absolutely nothing to apologise for"
Rob Williams
Rob Williams is Production Editor (Web/Apps) at The Independent. He was formerly Senior Online Reporter. He has worked for The Independent since 2008.
Friday 08 March 2013
Award-winning novelist Hilary Mantel has defended her comments about Kate Middleton saying she has: "absolutely nothing to apologise for".
The double Booker Prize winner found herself in the headlines last month after she described Kate as "shop-window mannequin" whose only purpose was to breed.
During a lecture at the British Museum she said the Duchess had no personality, and described her as "gloss-varnished" with a perfect plastic smile.
Mantel, whose latest novels are set in the Tudor court, was widely criticised for the comments in the lecture entitled 'Undressing Anne Boleyn'.
Prime Minister David Cameron even waded into the controversy saying the author was "completely wrong" to compare the Duchess to a "shop-window mannequin".
In an interview with BBC Radio 3's Night Waves the author hit back at her critics saying her words had been taken out of context and that she had been describing a perception of the Duchess that had been created in the media.
She told host Anne McElvoy: "My lecture and the subsequent essay was actually supportive of the Royal Family and when I used those words about the Duchess of Cambridge, I was describing the perception of her which has been set up in the tabloid press.
"My speech ended with a plea to the press and to the media in general. I said 'back off and don't be brutes. Don't do to this young woman what you did to Diana.'
"My whole theme was the way we maltreat royal persons, making them one superhuman, and yet less than human."
Mantel also said the controversy over her comments was an attempt to set her up as a "hate figure" by "taking the words completely out of context - twisting the context."
She told the radio programme: "I don't believe for one moment that there was any lack of clarity, after all, I have been practising my trade for a number of years now.
"It was a matter of taking the words completely out of context - twisting the context - and setting me up as a hate figure.
"I have absolutely no regrets - what I said was crystal clear."
During her controversial lecture, organised by London Review of Books a month after her latest novel Bring Up The Bodies won the Costa prize, Mantel also suggested that "painfully thin" Kate was selected for her role of princess because she posed no risk of showing any character.
But she said tonight: "I do think that the Duchess of Cambridge is an intelligent young woman, who if she cares to read my essay will see that I meant nothing but good to her."

Book City to close in Bloor West Village
Book City is shutting down in Bloor West Village after 20 years as brick and mortar book stores across the city decline. The closure will let Book City expand its product line, without taking away from book space, in its four other Toronto locations.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Book City is to close its Bloor West Village location toward the end of March to focus on its four other shops, general manager Ian Donker said Monday.
"It's a really sad and hard decision to have to make," he said of closing the branch at 2350 Bloor St. W., three blocks from the big-box Chapters bookstore at the Runnymede subway station.
"I did the dry-walling (at the Book City store) as a 17-year-old kid, on March Break 20 years ago," said Donker, son of company founders Frans and Gini Donker.
The closing coincides with the loss of two other independent bookstores so far this year.
The Book Mark, billed as Toronto's oldest independent bookstore, closed in January after 47 years in Etobicoke's Kingsway neighbourhood. Owners cited a crushing rent increase.
Books for Business, in the financial district on Adelaide St. W., is also to close at the end of March to become a strictly phone and online operation out of Oakville.
"Physical retail stores for media — books, music and video — are becoming increasingly unviable," owner Sean Neville said.
Book City's decision to close one of its five locations coincides with the company's move to expand its product line at the remaining stores, Donker said.
"We need stores that have enough square footage for us to be able to add something new without hurting our selection of books," he said. "We're looking for a few things to take over for the small decline that's happened because of ebooks, online sales, that type of thing."
The 1,000 square feet or so at the Bloor West Village location offered too little room to accommodate expanded inventory, which so far includes greeting cards and toys, he said.
"At the Beaches location, which I also manage, we have a lot of space where we can change the shelving, add certain things and display them well," Donker said. "That's something we'll do over the next few years."
The first Book City opened 36 years ago as a bookshop on Bloor St. W. in the Annex.
The company replicated its approach with neighbourhood shops on Queen St. E. in the Beach, at Yonge St. and St. Clair Ave., and on Danforth Ave. near Chester Ave.
The Bloor West Village location is to close the second last weekend in March.
In good company
The Bloor West Village branch of Book City joins a distinguished company of recent independent bookstore closings.
2012 – Books for Business, off Bay St. on Adelaide St. W., in the financial district; The Book Mark, on Bloor St. W. in Etobicoke;
2011 - The Flying Dragon, children's bookstore, Leaside.
2010 - This Ain't the Rosedale Library.
2009 - Pages Books, Queen St. W.; David Mirvish Books, Markham St.; McNally Robinson Booksellers, Don Mills.

BRUSELAS, November 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
La escala y ritmo al que está evolucionando la ayuda de emergencia representa un enorme desafío para la comunidad humanitaria. Pero los partenariados, los nuevos modelos de entrega y la innovación a nivel local muestran que el éxito es posible y que puede ser llevado a gran escala.
Más de 2.000 expertos de 61 países asistieron a AidEx 2012 para abordar estos temas y compartir ideas sobre cómo hacer frente mejor a los recursos del mundo humanitario en un momento de austeridad y de gestión cada vez más compleja de los desastres.
Los participantes de AidEx hicieron hincapié en el importante papel que desempeñará el avance de la planificación, las tecnologías locales y los diferentes modelos de entrega en los próximos años.
Sobre este aspecto, el doctor Abbas Gullet, secretario general de Kenya Red Cross, declaró:
"Muchos jóvenes que quieren estar en este sector, necesitan aprender y esta es nuestra obligación como profesionales experimentados, a la hora de transmitir ideas, que esencial el uso de la tecnología, para ser innovadores y tener nuevas recursos hacer frente a los desastres."
Claus Sørensen, director general de la UE para Ayuda Humanitaria y Protección Civil, comentó:
"Si tiene curiosidad por ver cómo se despliegan las instalaciones médicas, el tratamiento del agua en situaciones de desastre, o cómo funcionan los sistemas de comunicación, entonces AidEx es una cita ineludible."
Acerca de la colaboración existente entre el sector privado y las ONG, Crosby Menzies, fundador y consejero delegado de la compañía de Sudafricana SunFire Solutions, afirmó:
"La asociación con ONGs y agencias de desarrollo posee los mismos beneficios que poner las tecnologías en manos de comunidades que realmente se beneficien de ellos."
Respecto a los logros de este año, el director del evento Nicholas Rutherford dijo:
"Este año AidEx ha atraido a más de 2.000 expertos de ayuda, pero de lo que estamos realmente orgullosos es haber facilitado el intercambio de ideas entre todos ellos. Esto da como resultado soluciones rentables para hacer frente a los retos humanitarios más urgentes de hoy día."

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless.

It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...
