text:
Some gain power through study, some through devotion, others through blood, but the witch gains power from her communion with the unknown. Generally feared and misunderstood, the witch draws her magic from a pact made with an otherworldly power. Communing with that source, using her familiar as a conduit, the witch gains not only a host of spells, but a number of strange abilities known as hexes. As a witch grows in power, she might learn about the source of her magic, but some remain blissfully unaware. Some are even afraid of that source, fearful of what it might be or where its true purposes lie.
Role: While many witches are recluses, living on the edge of civilization, some live within society, openly or in hiding. The blend of witches' spells makes them adept at filling a number of different roles, from seer to healer, and their hexes grant them a number of abilities that are useful in a fight. Some witches travel about, seeking greater knowledge and better understanding of the mysterious powers that guide them.
Alignment: Any.
Hit Die: d6.
Starting Wealth: 3d6 × 10 gp (average 105 gp.) In addition, each character begins play with an outfit worth 10 gp or less.
Class Skills
The witch's class skills are Craft (Int), Fly (Dex), Heal (Wis), Intimidate (Cha), Knowledge (Arcana) (Int), Knowledge (History) (Int), Knowledge (Nature) (Int), Knowledge (Planes) (Int), Profession (Wis), Spellcraft (Int), and Use Magic Device (Cha).
Skill Ranks per Level: 2 + Int modifier.
Class Features
The following are the class features of the witch.
Do Temporary Ability Score Increases affect the DCs of monster and PC supernatural abilities based on those ability scores?
Although the description of temporarily ability score bonuses just refers to increasing spell DCs, that is a legacy of some older game terminology not being updated as new features were added to the rules. Temporary ability score increases should affect supernatural ability DCs based on those ability scores, such as a medusa's gaze attack or a witch's hexes.
If a hex says it can only affect a creature once every 24 hours, does that mean no other witch can use it on that target?
No, the restriction only applies to that particular witch using that hex, and doesn't prevent other witches from using their own hex with that name on the target.
For example, if Esmerelda uses her healing hex on Gustav, she can't use it on him again for 24 hours. Morda can still use her healing hex on Gustav during Esmerelda's no-healing-hex time period (and doing so prevents Morda from using it on him again for 24 hours). Repeat for any other witch using the healing hex
If I take levels in a prestige class that advances my spellcasting, do I continue to gain bonus spells from my patron as I gain levels?
No. That is a class feature of the witch class, and the standard "+1 level of spellcasting" prestige class ability only advances spells known, spells per day, effective spellcaster level. (You retain the patron spells from your familiar based on your actual witch level, of course.)
What spell does the light patron grant at level 18?
The spell at level 18 should be fiery body.
Update: Change the level 18 "sunburst" to "fiery body**."
What spell does the insanity patron grant at level 6?
The spell at level 6 should be distracting cacophony.
Update: Change "mad hallucination*" to "distracting cacophony*."

Weapon and Armor Proficiency
Witches are proficient with all simple weapons. They are not proficient with any type of armor or shield. Armor interferes with a witch's gestures, which can cause her spells with somatic components to fail.
A witch casts arcane spells drawn from the witch spell list. A witch must choose and prepare her spells ahead of time.
To learn or cast a spell, a witch must have an Intelligence score equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a witch's spell is 10 + the spell level + the witch's Intelligence modifier.
A witch can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. Her base daily spell allotment is given on Table: Witch. In addition, she receives bonus spells per day if she has a high Intelligence score (see Table: Ability Modifiers and Bonus Spells).
A witch may know any number of spells. She must choose and prepare her spells ahead of time by getting 8 hours of sleep and spending 1 hour communing with her familiar. While communing, the witch decides which spells to prepare.
Cantrips Witches can prepare a number of cantrips, or 0-level spells, each day, as noted on Table: Witch under "Spells per Day." These spells are cast like any other spell, but they are not expended when cast and may be used again. Cantrips prepared using other spell slots, due to metamagic feats for example, are expended normally.
Witches learn a number of magic tricks, called hexes, that grant them powers or weaken foes. At 1st level, a witch gains one hex of her choice. She gains an additional hex at 2nd level and for every 2 levels attained after 2nd level, as noted on Table: Witch. A witch cannot select an individual hex more than once.
Unless otherwise noted, using a hex is a standard action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. The save to resist a hex is equal to 10 + 1/2 the witch's level + the witch's Intelligence modifier.
Patron Spells
At 1st level, when a witch gains her familiar, she must also select a patron. This patron is a vague and mysterious force, granting the witch power for reasons that she might not entirely understand. While these forces need not be named, they typically hold influence over one of the following forces.
At 2nd level, and every two levels thereafter, a witch's patron adds new spells to a witch's list of spells known. These spells are also automatically added to the list of spells stored by the familiar. The spells gained depend upon the patron chosen. Each patron is listed by its theme. Its actual name is up to the GM and the witch to decide.
See a complete list of witch patrons here.
Witch's Familiar (Ex)
At 1st level, a witch forms a close bond with a familiar, a creature that teaches her magic and helps to guide her along her path. Familiars also aid a witch by granting her skill bonuses, additional spells, and help with some types of magic. This functions like the wizard's arcane bond class feature, except as noted in the Witch's Familiar section.
A witch must commune with her familiar each day to prepare her spells. Familiars store all of the spells that a witch knows, and a witch cannot prepare a spell that is not stored by her familiar. A witch's familiar begins play storing all of the 0-level witch spells plus three 1st level spells of the witch's choice. The witch also selects a number of additional 1st-level spells equal to her Intelligence modifier to store in her familiar. At each new witch level, she adds two new spells of any spell level or levels that she can cast (based on her new witch level) to her familiar. A witch can also add additional spells to her familiar through a special ritual.
Major Hex
Starting at 10th level, and every two levels thereafter, a witch can choose one of the following major hexes whenever she could select a new hex.
Grand Hex
Starting at 18th level, and every two levels thereafter, a witch can choose one of the following grand hexes whenever she could select a new hex.
Favored Class Bonuses
Instead of receiving an additional skill rank or hit point whenever they gain a level in a favored class, some races have the option of choosing from a number of other bonuses, depending upon their favored classes. The following options are available to the listed race who have witches as their favored class, and unless otherwise stated, the bonus applies each time you select the listed favored class benefit.
Archetypes & Alternate Class Features
When a character selects a class, he must choose to use the standard class features found or those listed in one of the archetypes presented here. Each alternate class feature replaces a specific class feature from its parent class. For example, the elemental fist class feature of the monk of the four winds replaces the stunning fist class feature of the monk. When an archetype includes multiple class features, a character must take all of them—often blocking the character from ever gaining certain familiar class features, but replacing them with equally powerful options. All of the other class features found in the core class and not mentioned among the alternate class features remain unchanged and are acquired normally when the character reaches the appropriate level (unless noted otherwise). A character who takes an alternate class feature does not count as having the class feature that was replaced when meeting any requirements or prerequisites.
A character can take more than one archetype and garner additional alternate class features, but none of the alternate class features can replace or alter the same class feature from the core class as another alternate class feature. For example, a paladin could not be both a hospitaler and an undead scourge since they both modify the smite evil class feature and both replace the aura of justice class feature. A paladin could, however, be both an undead scourge and a warrior of the holy light, since none of their new class features replace the same core class feature.
Archetypes are a quick and easy way to specialize characters of a given class, adding fun and flavorful new abilities to already established adventurers. Characters may take more than one archetype if they meet the requirements.

1. The Licence is Unnecessary
As many have pointed out, the universities already pay for access to a wide range of materials that likely cover the majority of copyrighted materials used on campus. Campus wide electronic database licences offer access to thousands of journals and electronic books that can be incorporated directly into electronic coursepacks. Universities pay millions of dollars for these licences with the money flowing to database companies, publishers, and authors. For example, last year the Canadian Research Knowledge Network alone spent over $96 million in content licences that offer access to millions of articles to 900,000 students and researchers at 75 universities across the country.
Moreover, open access licensing, where research publications are freely available online, constitutes a growing percentage of published research (some estimate it at 30 percent of all scholarly research), with thousands of open access journals and hundreds of thousands of articles posted directly by the researchers themselves. As Cory Doctorow might say, there will never be less work available under open access than there is today.
Add public domain works, fair dealing, hundreds of millions spent on textbooks, and pay-per-use licences for the remaining works and an Access Copyright licence simply becomes unnecessary.
2. The Licence Does Not Adequately Account for Bill C-11
One of the primary concerns with the Access Copyright model licence is the failure to account for forthcoming changes to Canadian copyright law under Bill C-11. The bill seems likely to become law by the summer and it includes several important provisions for Canadian education institutions.
First, the expansion of fair dealing to include a new category of education expands the scope of permitted copying without the need for permission or compensation. While the new education category will not mean that all copying on university campuses is covered by fair dealing (as some in the publishing community have misleadingly claimed), it will obviously include some educational copying that may not have been covered by research or private study.
Second, the inclusion of an exception for publicly available materials on the Internet covers the content found on millions of websites that can now be communicated and reproduced by educational institutions without the need for permission or compensation. The provision states:
30.04 (1) Subject to subsections (2) to (5), it is not an infringement of copyright for an educational institution, or a person acting under the authority of one, to do any of the following acts for educational or training purposes in respect of a work or other subject-matter that is available through the Internet:
(a) reproduce it;
(b) communicate it to the public by telecommunication, if that public primarily consists of students of the educational institution or other persons acting under its authority;
(c) perform it in public, if that public primarily consists of students of the educational institution or other persons acting under its authority; or
(d) do any other act that is necessary for the purpose of the acts referred to in paragraphs (a) to (c).
The subsections that follow create several conditions, including attribution, the absence of a digital lock, and the absence of a clear opt-out notification (that is more than just a copyright notice). As I noted in an earlier post, this provision is certainly applicable to linking to online content and will also cover many other online materials used in the classroom.
Third, the non-commercial user generated content provision may also prove relevant for some electronic casebooks that incorporate materials to create a new work for non-commercial purposes. The UGC provision (Section 29.21) includes four conditions including an analysis of "substantial adverse effect", but the provision may allow for the development of new materials where the evidence suggests that the new works do not substantially adversely affect the original works.
Fourth, the bill establishes a technology-neutral approach for the reproduction of materials for display purposes. The current law is limited to manual reproduction or on an overhead projector. With Bill C-11, the provision applies to any display technology:
It is not an infringement of copyright for an educational institution or a person acting under its authority for the purposes of education or training on its premises to reproduce a work, or do any other necessary act, in order to display it.
There are limits to this exception (it applies where the work is not commercially available in a medium that is appropriate for the purpose referred to in the exception), but it still may cover uses that Access Copyright would prefer to licence. For example, concerns about the inclusion of copyright-materials in powerpoint presentations may be covered by the new display provision.
Fifth, the digital inter-library loans provision, while restrictive, will open the door to digital transmission of materials on an inter-library basis, increasing access to materials that have been acquired by university libraries.
Sixth, the bill features changes to the statutory damages provision that decrease the risk of significant liability for educational institutions. Those changes are discussed further below.
All of these provisions represent significant changes in the law that provide new rights for education, yet the model licence seemingly acts is if they do not exist.
3. The Legal Risk of Not Signing is Limited
The University of Victoria notes in its announcement that it is reluctantly signing the model licence stating "the decision to opt into the license was taken reluctantly as a strategy to mitigate the risk of litigation by Access Copyright in the immediate future." Yet the legal risk is already very limited. First, the Supreme Court of Canada's CCH decision, still the leading decision on fair dealing, speaks of the need for a "large and liberal" interpretation to fair dealing categories such as research "to ensure that users' rights are not unduly constrained." Fair dealing certainly provides considerable latitude for copying at Canadian universities and would be the first line of defence against a claim of infringement. Indeed, the recent Georgia State University fair use case in the United States demonstrates how user rights/copyright exceptions can be used as an effective defense against many claims of infringement (Ariel Katz argues that Canadian defences would be even stronger than those in the U.S.).
Second, there remain considerable doubts about the Access Copyright repertoire, both with respect to its scope and the need for evidence of copyright ownership or rights in specific works. Access Copyright is viewed by many as vulnerable on both of these fronts, creating significant legal risk for the collective should it choose to pursue litigation against a university operating outside the model licence.
Third, Bill C-11′s statutory damages reforms limit the potential liability for non-commercial infringement. The bill will establish a cap of $5,000 maximum for all infringements involved "if the infringements are for non-commercial purposes." Given the non-commercial status of educational institutions and the absence of any profit motive in these cases, the new statutory damages cap may be applicable. While Access Copyright could seek actual damages, the Georgia State University case demonstrates that actual damages may be even lower in many cases.
Fourth, concerns that universities will offload copyright liability onto faculty are unfounded. Universities rightly advise faculty to follow appropriate copyright guidelines to ensure that their policies are consistent with the law. However, should a faculty member overreach with their copying practices, it is incredibly unlikely that they will face a lawsuit (and even if they did, litigation insurance would cover the costs). The copying involved would be so small that there simply are insufficient damages to justify a lawsuit. Consider a faculty member that makes 50 or 100 copies of an article for their students. Leaving aside all the available exceptions, the damages from the copying would be tiny (capped at $5000 but likely to be much, much less). Given the legal costs and risks associated with losing such a suit (imagine a court ruling that education under fair dealing covered those classroom copies), these are lawsuits that will not happen.
While none of this suggests that universities can simply copy what they like without addressing the issue of permissions (they clearly cannot), assuming a university has developed an appropriate copyright policy as well as invested in site licences and the necessary copyright clearances, the risk of liability should Access Copyright sue is limited.
4. The Licence is Inequitable
The Access Copyright decision to blend two separate fees into one creates significant inequalities among students. At the moment, all students pay $3.38 annually to cover general copying on campus (the interim tariff) and an additional 10 cents per page for coursepacks. The new licence establishes a single fee of $26 per student. This creates a huge jump in costs for the majority of students. The majority of faculties – sciences, law, health, medicine, dentistry, and engineering – make very little use of the Access Copyright licence for coursepacks since their materials are typically either texts, available under open access, or can be accessed through alternative licensed databases (as is the case in law).
For those students, the only fee they currently pay is the $3.38 per year. If their university signs the model licence, they will be paying $26 next year for next to nothing. The incidental or general copying is almost certainly covered by fair dealing and these students don't use coursepacks with materials necessitating an Access Copyright licence. It is inequitable to compel these students to pay additional fees with no value in return, particularly as some of these students already pay the highest student fees on campus.
5. The Licence is Harmful
Some institutions may believe signing the agreement is the best way to limit their legal risk, yet the reality is that the licence is not neutral in the sense that it simply results in higher fees for students (or costs for the institution) in return for reduced legal liability. The model licence is harmful in two important respects. First, as CAUT has pointed out, the licence contains very problematic language that raises the prospect of surveillance as well as restraints on scholarly communication, use of scholarly materials, and use of modern technologies.
Second, providing Access Copyright with millions in additional funds that may not be necessary will serve to undermine educational concerns in current and future copyright reform. During the Bill C-32/C-11 debate, Access Copyright was the leading opponent of educational interests, opposing virtually all educational exceptions in the bill. In fact, Access Copyright spent millions last year (over 30% of its licensing revenues) on Copyright Board applications and professional fees, including lobbying on Bill C-11. When universities provide a windfall of millions to Access Copyright, much of that money is funneled toward advocacy opposing education concerns.
6. The Licence Hurts Long Term Education
As I discussed in a column last week, the emerging education model flips the current approach of expensive textbooks, closed research, and limited access to classroom-based learning on its head, instead featuring open course materials, open access to scholarly research, and Internet-based courses that can simultaneously accommodate thousands of students. Over the past year, dozens of universities have spent thousands of dollars in shifting toward a more open approach by investing in open access and open educational resources.
The University of Victoria claims that it will continue that effort so that it can adopt an open access approach in 2015. Yet many universities signing the Access Copyright model licence will simply write-off the recent investments, particularly given the huge increase in costs they will face. The long-term impact on those schools will be significant. Rather than focusing on open materials and greater flexibility for faculty and students, they will lock into the Access Copyright model of high fees and limited rights to use course materials. As a model for the future, the model licence is a major step backward.

Fall of Dunsinane Lyrics - Jag Panzer
[Broderick / Conklin]</i>
As Lady MacBeth's life fades, Malcolm's rebels and the Scottish Army join at Birnham Wood. Malcolm
instructs the men to cut down branches and hide their vast numbers from the castle. As they begin to
approach with Lady MacBeth now gone and MacDuff's entire family slain, the two men are now driven
by vengeance.
Look, Sir, Birnham Wood is growing towards the castle!
By the gods! The witches prophecy come true, stay hold, I go!
Unleash the fury contained within. Each swing of my blade another life gone
The Commander's son was such an easy kill
No man can harm me. None of woman born.
Storm the castle with Malcolm at my side I will find MacBeth
Avenge my house by taking the crown along with his head
I must flee this place of madness and find MacDuff
Seal forever the crown that now rests on my brow
I will find MacBeth, relieve him of his head
End his reign in blood. End this day in death.
The fall of Dunsinane begins my vengeance
Rid England of this murdering thief
All who are with me help me find this fool
All eyes will testify his end
MacBeth & MacDuff find each other and are face to face at last. MacDuff, knowing that MacBeth has
already laid his entire family to rest, fears for his life, yet is driven by vengeance to fight MacBeth to the death.
MacBeth, assured that no man born of a woman may harm him is more than ready to bring this madness
to close.

Warren Martin clinched the 2012 Fish 'O' Mania title at Cudmore Fishery on Saturday.
The 35 year-old project manager from Lyng in Norfolk, became the 19th Fish'O'Mania champion with a comfortable eight kilo win over his rivals.
Martin was still in the pack after two hours of fishing but a huge catch of 8.30 kilos in the fifth 30 minute period saw him shoot to the top of the leader board.
He lost the lead to Ben Emery after 3 hours 30 minutes but regained top spot after another impressive session and pressed on to victory in fishing's most prestigious event.
"I didn't come here thinking I would win it," said Martin. "After two hours I didn't think I had a chance. I saw everyone along that bank catch fish I hadn't but I didn't worry about it.
"Winning here is incredible. It's the biggest achievement I've ever had and probably always will be. I think this will sink in next week sometime as it certainly hasn't now."
Martin collected the winner's cheque of £30,000, as well as a £1,000 bonus for catching the biggest fish of the day, a carp of 5.59kg.

Sim on song
In the Ladies Fish'O'Mania match, England International Samantha Sim was on top form once again as she easily retained the title she won last year with a winning bag of 27.97kg.
That was a whopping 14 kilos ahead of her nearest rival Emma Pickering, a winner of this event in 2005, and Sim took home £1,000 and the prestigious trophy.
"I fished mainly meat, caster and hemp and managed to catch fish," she said afterwards.

"I ain't trying to score," he said in July.
But now, Evans is understanding that line of thought may have to change, particularly with him in the starting lineup. Although he viewed things in a different...Read more »
Andray Blatche speaks about sex assault incident
"Y'all will hear the truth sooner or later," the Nets' Andray Blatche said about a police investigation regarding an alleged sexual assault incident in his Philadelphia hotel room earlier this week. "When the time comes and I can talk about it, everybody will realize it's not what you think." Blatche spoke publicly about the matter for the first time after the team's practice...Read more »
Three Pointers: Swept up in a Thunder Storm
Let's be honest.
It looked like the Thunder were about to blow the Nets away in the third quarter, when they opened up that 15-point lead. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were having fun, bouncing all over the Barclays Center.
Durant tried to posterize Andray Blatche. Westbrook was acting like he was a cowboy in the Wild West, blowing off a pair of six-shooters and pretending to stick...Read more »
Three Pointers: Trying to end the Miami vice grip
MIAMI -- Andray Blatche fired the first salvo, not long after the Nets dispatched the awful Magic Friday night.
With the defending champion Heat on tap Saturday night and the Nets in the midst of a five-game winning streak that's propelled them to the best start through 15 games in franchise history, Blatche figured it was the perfect time to show the Nets are oozing with confidence.
He...Read more »
Three Pointers: Making the Magic vanish
There were smiles all around.
Those two nasty losses were finally in the rearview mirror Friday night, cast aside with a 107-68 pummeling of the Magic at Amway Center. The Nets were thrilled to take care of business against a team with a roster loaded with mostly unproven players, making that late-night flight from the Sunshine State back to Newark all that much more enjoyable.

I've only tried it twice
I wouldn't have bought this toner if I had realised it had alcohol in it. You definitely can't use it in the eye area like other toners, but if you use the make up removing cleanser there is no need to. However, I am happy with the results. No spectacular change for the better but no devastating effects either from changing from a higher end product.
Good idea. Love the free delivery.

Christmas Tree Rolls
"Our kids love it when I bake these yummy rolls in the shape of a Christmas tree," shares Diedra Walker, a working mother from Martin, Tennessee who enjoys trying new recipes on weekends. Taking advantage of convenient crescent roll dough, she makes this impressive addition to a special brunch without a lot of fuss.
11 Servings
Prep: 30 min. Bake: 20 min.
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 tablespoon butter, softened
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons milk
Red and/
green candied cherries, optional
Unroll crescent roll dough into a rectangle. Press seams and
perforations to seal; roll lightly with a rolling pin. Spread butter
over dough. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over butter. Roll
up, jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Seal edge. Cut into
22 slices. To form a tree, place slices on a greased baking sheet
with sides touching and cut side up. Place one slice in the top row
and two slices in the second row. Repeat with remaining rolls,
adding one slice per row, until the tree has six rows. Center the
one remaining slice under the last row for a truck. Bake at 350°
for 16-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to a wire rack.
Combine confectioners' sugar and milk; drizzle over warm rolls.
Decorate with cherries if desired. Yield: 22 rolls.

GUELPH — This OUA men's basketball season was supposed to be Dan McCarthy's farewell tour with the Guelph Gryphons.
Unfortunately, the tour hit a road block before it ever got started.
"I came back this year really just to play," McCarthy said. He graduated from biomedical science last year and is adding a minor in nutrition this year. "I had surgery and it didn't go so well and I had to have another one. It's been frustrating, but all I can do now is deal with it. I may as well push through it to get back as soon as I can."
Last month, the guard underwent his second surgery on his right knee since the end of the 2011-12 season. He's hoping to be back in January, meaning he'll miss the entire interlocking part of the schedule. If he makes his return on Jan. 3 against the Western Mustangs, he will have missed 21 games including the pre-season matches.
"It's really hard to just sit there and take a back seat," McCarthy said. "I still feel I'm part of this team and I can still talk from the bench, come to practice and motivate guys. I can at least bring my experience to try to help them learn faster, but it's definitely not the easiest thing to just sit back and watch."
McCarthy's setback is a big blow for the Gryphs as they're also without fellow guard Kareem Malcolm until at least January. He has to concentrate on his studies.
"A break is nice, but it's been way too long," McCarthy said. "I haven't played since our playoff game last February. It'll be almost a year by the time I play again."
McCarthy and Malcolm are the lone Gryphs in their fifth year of eligibility and, between them, averaged almost 35 points a game. That's a huge amount to take out of any team's lineup, and a huge amount that the Gryphs will get back if both return.
"The only guy we have back that scored double digits with 10 last year is Zach (Angus)", Gryphon head coach Chris O'Rourke said. "We have a whole new core. These guys are all first-year forwards except for Tom (Armstrong). We basically have five freshmen forwards.
"Guys don't realize how much of a jump it is from high school, when you're a true freshman, to university. It's a big jump, physically, mentally. It's a lot more demanding and a lot tougher."
The Gryphs will attempt to keep their heads above water until McCarthy and Malcolm return. It didn't start well last week with a pair of opening-weekend losses at Toronto, 71-55 to the Toronto Varsity Blues and 91-43 to the Ryerson Rams.
"The first quarter (against Ryerson) was indicative of what a fine line between gaining momentum and losing momentum," O'Rourke said. "If you watch the first quarter on film, which we did, we beat ourselves. We had a lot of opportunities to score whether it was off of takes, threes, foul shots, misreads that we could have been up after the first quarter and that would have changed the whole momentum of our confidence."
However, the Gryphs trailed 19-9 at the end of that opening quarter.
"Part of the problem is that we're very inexperienced," O'Rourke said. "Unfortunately when it starts rolling the wrong way, we just don't have the experience and depth right now to weather a storm like that."
With McCarthy and Malcolm not in uniform, the Gryphs are left with two third-year players (guards Angus and Michel Clark), three sophomores (guards Dan Thompson and Jack Beatty and forward Armstrong) and nine rookies on their roster.
But the knocks the rookies take early this season may pay dividends later in the year and in seasons to come.
"We've spent a lot of time on skill development and a lot of time on film," O'Rourke said. "We're trying to keep things fairly simple, yet putting things in you have to put in to be successful at this level. Obviously, there are some growing pains right now."
This week the Gryphs have a single game to play – their home opener against the Queen's Gaels Saturday. The Gaels play at Lakehead Friday night while the Gryphs get that night off due to RMC (4-172 in eight years and winless in league play since Nov. 17, 2006) leaving the OUA league to join the Ontario Colleges league.
Game time Saturday at the Mitchell Athletics Centre is 8 p.m.
Women's Hockey
The Gryphs made the Ryerson Rams pay for their penalties Thursday night at the Gryphon Centre as Guelph scored four power-play goals in its' 6-1 victory.
Guelph led 3-1 at the end of the first period and 5-1 after the second.
Jenna Lanzarotta scored twice with a manpower advantage to give her a league-best six power-play goals this season. Single goals were added by Jessica Pinkerton, Hillary Walsh, Amanda Parkins and Kim Wong. Christine Grant, Parkins and Katie Mora each had two assists while Tamara Bell, Emily Corbett and Michelle Sabourin had one apiece.
Janella Brodett had the lone goal for Ryerson.
Katherine Brazda stopped 17 shots in net for the win in her first start of the season.

Capture hearts, not just minds
It's not enough anymore to inform customers and compare features. Consumers today want to be inspired, motivated. They don't just want to shop; they want to engage.
To accomplish that, you need a compelling, emotionally-engaging video campaign.
Few marketers, however have the knowledge, skills, and experience to produce top-quality videos that emotionally engage buyers and generate sales. That's why businesses and agencies rely on Fresh Ink specialists to provide creative, fully-managed video marketing services. See our stuff.
Get the best bang for your buck
Like high-tech robots, high-priced big-box production companies follow directions perfectly but expect you to tell them exactly what you want and how you want it. Mom n' Pops are cheaper but tend to be heavy on promises, light on delivery.
Fresh Ink offers the best of both—a compelling video campaign that accurately reflects who you are, is professionally executed, and fits within your budget.
Our business is to understand your business and your customers. Our strategy is to create an emotional connection between you and your customers and to build trust. Our success is quantifiable in terms of clicks, leads, and sales conversions. We do this by leveraging online marketing content to create a direct, visible connection between marketing programs and revenue impact. The results: more qualified leads, increased conversion and retention rates, shorter sales cycles, and greater ROI.

The upcoming rededication of Island Trees Middle School as Richard N. Segerdahl Middle School, after the district's recently retired superintendent, was the central topic of discussion at the first board of education meeting of the school year, held on Sept. 29.
As part of his community bus tour in June, Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi held a public meeting with Levittown residents, outlining his vision of development of a "New Suburbia."
The Island Trees Boys Varsity Soccer team defeated Wantagh 2-0. T.J. Fabis and Mike Topel scored goals in the first half to give the Dawgs an early lead. The defense would hold strong and not give Wantagh a chance to score to give the Dawgs the victory.
Winning banners crafted by the Senior Class, International Club and Junior Class were announced, and then all eyes were on the game as the Generals fought a tight contest, narrowly missing a 47-yard field goal that just missed its mark. Although the heartbreakingly-close final score of 7-6 brought a win for Carey, all agreed that the day's festivities were, in general, a success for MacArthur High School.

Old Bills Donations Increase
An undetermined number of competitors were on hand again on the Jackson Town Square for Old Bill's Fun Run 2012 Saturday – but the number again was well into the thousands. To date, Mr. and Mrs. Old Bill and 45 Co-Challengers have contributed $2,305,000 to match the community's donations, shattering last year's record of $2,165,000. While donations are still arriving, nearly $4.7 million has been raised so far through the event for local organizations. Following the race, people strolled through approximately 100 nonprofit booths, learning about the many opportunities in Jackson for activities ranging from recreational to health and human safety as well as environmental preservation. The amount collected for the participating organizations will not be known until later this month as donations are still being accepted at the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole office and online until 5:00 pm on Friday. Of course, the final dollar amount raised and match percentage will be announced October 22nd at the Old Bill's Awards Party.

Testing For The Latest Linux Kernel Power Regression
As I wrote about yesterday, there appears to be a new Linux kernel power regression that's yet to be solved by the latest Linux 3.17 code. The issue was originally tracked down to being a regression introduced during the Linux 3.15 stable cycle that disabled frame-buffer compression support by default for the Intel DRM graphics driver, but the impact it's had on the system power draw is much greater than what was anticipated by the Intel developers. A separate Intel employee is also reporting increased power draw, so I decided to run some tests on a few local systems to see what I'm encountering in the power consumption primarily between Linux 3.15 and 3.16.

CPUFreq Scaling Tests With AMD's Kaveri On Linux 3.16
In past months on Phoronix we have done many CPUfreq tests to see the impact of the different scaling governors and with Intel hardware how the CPUfreq driver compares to Intel P-State in terms of performance and power consumption. As we haven't done such ACPI CPUfreq tests on the AMD side in a long time, here's some benchmarks using a Kaveri APU and selecting the different scaling governors during performance benchmarking.

- A shame about the imited menuOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/1/2014I have been here several times before but this was the first for a while. The menu was more in keeping with a sports bar as there was a very limited choice of appetizers and entrees and was more focused on a bar menu. This is a shame as the quality was great and as good as I remember. Previoulsy there was an intersting menu with "local" Texas content.Special Features:
- Bring the pillows from the bedroomsTasteitfirstVIPDined on 10/27/2014Nice place, nice building. Food ok to good - I personnally like my risotto if not hot, at least warm. I know, it's a weird habit. It arrived cold and desperately trying to get some heat from the bass idly lying on it. Our waiter did his best. I suggest he sets to tap-dancing or juggling to entertain customers during the long, long, long wait. We were the only table (4) and half a dozen people at the bar and almost fell asleep waiting for the food. I hardly imagine what happens during rush hour. Probably late dinners collide with early breakfasts.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 10/19/2014Needed a spot for Sunday morning breakfast downtown that was outside of the barricades for the Houston Club implosion. Thought of hotels and checked out Line & Lariat from the Icon on OpenTable. Nice room with both buffet and menu selections to choose from. The buffet was completely serviceable with scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, sausage patties, bacon [none crisp unfortunately], biscuits, gravy, bread and bagels for toasting, fruit, granola and yogurt. It came with bottomless coffee and juice. All told for $17.95 it seemed like a good deal and filled us up until an early dinner that evening.
- I was pleasantly surprisedjreyVIPDined on 10/16/2014Had not been to this restaurant in a couple of years (it had another name last time I ate there) and I was pleasantly surprised. The salmon entrée was quite good on top of the brussel sprouts and goat cheese risotto. My boyfriend had the ribeye and he enjoyed his dish as well. Service was attentive and it's a very romantic restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very GoodTeamCasonVIPDined on 9/20/2014Had a great time. Took some friends out to what has quickly become one of my favorite places to eat. My absolute favorite is the salsa/cerviche type appetizer with the house made tortillas. Lamb chops were perfect. Scallops were a little over cooked this time. Friends said bone in steak was great but red snapper was just so-so. Overall a great time.Special Features:
- excellent eveningrenthoutxDined on 8/30/2014the drinks, absinthe ( yes, they can make one!) we had two each with appetizers which were great- we had the coconut shrimp , 4 shrimp with a nice mango salsa 9.95, and the crab cake with micro greens , i nice size cake, 8.99. with dinner had a moderate priced bottle of wine 49.95 and the filet, 8 oz. cooked perfectly with potato croquette and asparagus. 28.00, and lamb chops, 3 chops with potato puree 31.00. expresso and dessert ,which was 2 chocolate lava cakes . total bill was 182.00 but well worth it for a nice evening out in downtown houston. they have valet parking, 6.00 or you can just find a spot on the street which is free after 6 pm.Special Features:
- Wonderful ExperienceKWLHDined on 8/29/2014The food was excellent and the menu interesting. The service was also top-notch. Our waiter went out of his way to find a bottle of Rose' that was not on their wine menu in their wine vault. Very relaxing.Special Features:
- Breath taking discovery: Wow!FoodieGarudaVIPDined on 8/28/2014It is not often that you find a magnificent location, with a young smart staff and a menu full of extraordinary quality of food. Since you get there, the hostess takes care of you flawlessly; and don't' expect him to disengage as 99% of hostesses do, if he sees that you need something throughout the meal, he will be helping you right away. The ambiance is second to none, whoever decorated this hotel lobby-ish restaurant, they knew very well what they were doing. Layout of tables is flawless, you feel welcome, comfortable and at the same time private and always taken care of. Tim, server tonight, did an amazing job, proper of the top restaurants in the city, if not the country. If I had more space, I would tell you so much ..Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/22/2014Good food, very slow service . Painfully slow. I had the stuffed chiles and they were delicious . My husband had the filet mignon and that was also very good. Cheese plate and crab cakes were also very good. Delicious cucumber and tomato salad. One annoying fact: They say they validate your parking at the restaurant for the valet, but then the valet told us it only covers half the fee. We still had to pay $6 . Oh well, still enjoyed it.Special Features:
- Just completely lacking in serviceSlinknet10Dined on 8/16/2014We both tried the filet and both of ours were pretty good But we just couldn't get over the fact that we never even had a waiter. The manager came around asking how things were and that's who ended up taking our order. It was pretty bizarre.
- Not what was expectedTEricksonDined on 8/16/2014This looks like a restaurant bar/dining area of a cheap hotel. This was definitely NOT what my husband and I were expecting. Hotel Icon is a nice hotel, but this restaurant does not reflect that. My husband and I were very overdressed and we simply had on dressy business attire. We were seated right next to a wall and the place was far from full. We waited for a serves for at least ten minutes before getting up and walking out.
- Horrible serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/15/2014I should have listened to all of the reviews online regarding the bad service here. Food was decent, but way too much to pay to be ignored for way too long/often and lied to.
- Yippee-kiyo-kiyay!3BBBDined on 8/8/2014What a diamond in the rough! We always enjoy a romantic getaway at the Hotel Icon (an oldtime, downtown renovated bank) and this invariably includes a delicious meal at the Line & Lariat! High-backed compfy chairs in secluded pockets surrounding the central bar create ambience and romance. The service is swift and unobtrusive, initially and throughout the meal. Excellent wine/cocktail options and a varied menu create anticipation that consistently satisfies. We can't wait to return; just being at the Hotel Icon is a special occasion!Special Features:
- Very Good Food and QuietBruceVIPDined on 8/3/2014Their restaurant weeks offering was very good and very reasonably priced. One of the listed items wasn't available and they made an excellent substitution. Good service, very pleasant experience.Special Features:
- The following 602 reviews are from the Line & Lariat reviews archive.
- Needs workHoustonfoodieDined on 7/9/2014Service was very amateurish. Waiter brought out small champagne flutes for our bottle of red wine. Then replaced them with tiny wine glasses. Noticed later that a different waiter brought proper size glasses to the table next to us. Scallops were good but fish was totally over cooked. My wife's filet mignon was cooked to medium but it was without any juice/moisture. Both came with a pile of greenery on top that made for a complete lack of presentation. This is all too bad because it is a nice room. The bar seemed to be having fun.
- EEEHHHaandsmendozaVIPDined on 6/28/2014This place definitely needs some improvement. The hotel is gorgeous but the restaurant lacks quite a bit. The appetizers tasted like they were straight out of the freezer; especially the coconut shrimp. The main courses were fairly decent but the desserts were terrible! We had a party of 4 and nobody enjoyed their desserts. We were told numerous times that they were updating the menu so hopefully they'll have some improvements made soon! Our waiter was quick and friendly.Special Features:
- Suprisingly goodOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 6/27/2014Great food- Loved my scallop appetizer; they melted in my mouth. Filet was cooked perfectly medium rare. Desserts could use a bit of an overhaul; not horrible, but not great either. Beautiful interior of an old 1920's bank with huge high ceilings and the original bank vault. Servers could use a bit more training but they were courteous and always available.Special Features:
- Very enjoyable eveningRaderRogDined on 6/6/2014Since it is a downtown establishment, Friday night was lightly attended. The Happy Hour drinks and menu was killer, and don't miss the scallops!Special Features:
- AverageNativehoustonianDined on 5/31/2014We came here on a whim. It was close to where we were in Downtown. The food was okay. They seemed to be trying to hard with the menu. The prices for the mains were just too much for what they were offering. We ended up with 4 appetizers to share. The quail was alright but the "salad" that went with it was just odd. The shrimp was good but the relish wasn't very complementary. We enjoyed the scallops and the Mini Campechana. The restaurant itself was nearly empty and the clientele looked like they were guests of the hotel. I would only recommend going here if you're in the area and can't find a table elsewhere.
- First timeTimMcDined on 5/30/2014Dinner with my daughter before a show. Food and service were great. Red snapper was a tad over done. Will go back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Pre-Theater PicklibeatsDined on 5/29/2014I was looking for a place downtown to dine before going to a performance at Hobby Theater. Line & Lariat was a good pick and they even offered shuttle service to/from the venue when we parked in valet parking. The menu was good for a variety of tastes. The only miss was a tuna tartar small plate. The tuna was cut into tiny cubes which closely resembled a canned cat food. I'm confident the chef will have that one shaped up in no time!
- Another Great ExperienceTeamCasonVIPDined on 5/17/2014Visited this restaurant for the 2nd time. Had exactly the same dishes including lamb chops and scallops. Was a good as the first time. My wife and I enjoyed the experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mothers Day gotchaAvoidVIPDined on 5/11/2014Unremarkable in every respect. Then they hit you with a 36% tip/service charge for a Buffet ! They validate your parking ticket, then the valet hits you up for another manditory 50% charge. Avoid this place if you can.
- Line & Lariat is OkaySusanAnn13VIPDined on 5/10/2014Husband and I had dinner here prior to attending an HGO performance. We were seated in the gorgeous dining room early at 5:30 p.m. Our server was polite, but poorly trained, as in we had to suggest the wine list to him, etc. Our $7 artisinal local cheese platter was mild - all 3 cheeses seemed to be of the same taste profile and our server did not identify them - this dish was on special for Saturday night. I wouldn't want to pay the full fare of $12 for it. Our entrees were mixed: my gulf snapper dish was delicious, while Husband had the scallops. He felt they were good, but overall the dish needed more seasoning. Dessert was lovely - I had strawberry shortcake and Husband had the pear tart. Overall, good, but not great.Special Features:
- ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDINGcackieVIPDined on 5/7/2014We are still talking about how wonderful our food was the other evening. The Red Snapper has the best topping and sides ever! The lamb was perfect (need mint jelly on the side). The shrimp appetizer was great!!Special Features:
- Wonderful placehoustonfoodieVIPDined on 4/26/2014Unlike the usual noisy establishments this place is one where you can actually carry on a conversation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DrearyWhiteyDined on 4/23/2014Line and Lariat continue to disappoint. Try as they might, it still looks, feels and behaves like a hotel standard restaurant. The service is good, if uneven, the food is ok, rushed and kind of pedestrian. The ambience is, well, dismal. It feels like you are eating in a hotel lobby (which you are).
- Surprisingly goodSpringsteenFanDined on 4/23/2014Downtown eating in the north end is a challenge. Having walked by the restaurant sign in the Hotel Icon, we finally decided to try it out. Very pleasant staff, efficient lunch service, and the food was good. Not a huge selection .. But everything we got was well done. I have already extolled its praises to coworkers who went today and also loved it.Special Features:
- Wonderful HolidayRoo1Dined on 4/20/2014My husband and I had a holiday all to ourselves and thought we would drive to Houston to the theater. We had the best time. The food was wonderful and the service was outstanding. Everyone was so friendly. The prime rib was perfect as was everything else. We will be back and recommend it to our friends!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Easter brunchEasygoingDined on 4/20/2014The ambience was lovely and very comfortable.The noise level was just right for a group of five adults.The food was excellent and there was a very nice selection. We were not crammed beside another table as so often happens on holidays. My only two complaints are that 1. The omelet/ waffle bar was so busy that some in our party never got theirs (seemed inefficient and maybe understaffed)and 2. It was very expensive. I have been to a lot of brunches that were comparable in selection and quality and this was probably $15 to $20 more expensive. (I guess we were paying for that elbow room.)You also had to pay to valet park,another $10 or $15 dollars. I was late making reservations so I had to take what I could get but we did have a lovely time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not goodOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 4/15/2014The food was bland. They piled way too much garnish on my meat. My wife and mother in law were not happy with the taste of their food. The bartender could not get the drink orders right. When we asked the server to take one of the drinks back because it was not made properly the bartender gave us a dirty look.Special Features:
- Line & Lariat is located insidehrwfoodieDined on 4/12/2014Line & Lariat is located inside the beautiful hotel icon, and we had a superb early Saturday evening meal. The jalapeno cornbread was delicious, as was both the lamb and ribeye. The dress ranged anywhere from very casual to very formal and everyone seemed quite comfortable in the elegant dining room. We really enjoyed it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nothing going on here!ljs8887Dined on 4/4/2014There were 2 other tables with people. This was 6:30 on a Friday night. The food was mediocre and nothing special. The waiter only had our table so he hovered next to it during the entire meal. He was almost impossible to understand due to a heavy Asian accent. Ona a side note, the upstairs bar was closed for a private affair and seemed to be a lot of fun!
- Quiet Sunday EveningLoveStruckVIPDined on 3/30/2014We enjoyed dinner at this place after seeing a show late Sunday afternoon. It was a very pleasant, romantic experience.Special Features:
- L & LDateDined on 3/29/2014We purchased a Travelzoo Coupon and enjoyed the food, the service of the main waiter was not very good. but the assistant waiter was excellent. The waiter could not speak english very well and was very hard to understand, We presented him with the travel zoo coupon We ordered exactly what was on the Travel zoo coupon, at the end of the dinner we were presented with an 80+ dollar check which we perceived was the full amount of what the dinner what cost, so we left a moderate tip and left for the Valet to receive our car. Another waitress ran after us saying we did not pay the bill which was embarrassing for there were other patrons around, we told her we gave the coupon to our waiter and since we prepaid for it, the Bill was taken care of.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food & Ambiance..Eh WaitressBusinessTraveller2014Dined on 3/29/2014We went for an early Saturday dinner before a concert downtown. The food and the restaurant were awesome, our waitress, not so much. We waited for about 15 minutes until she came to our table. Meanwhile another waiter had been back to his table 2 times. We ordered a bottle of wine and also said that we were ready for our food order. She told us to hold on. She was gone for another 10 minutes. We saw her carrying our wine bottle around to other tables before she made it our way. She poured our first glass, way over what a normal glass of white should be. Then she left to find an ice bucket still not taking our food order. We finally got our food but we managed to miss almost the entire opening act. But the food was good!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!ThanksgivingVIPDined on 3/17/2014Went on a Monday with my boyfriend for dinner. We shared the Mini Campechana. It was very good and fresh. I ordered the pan seared scallops. I was impressed with the size of the scallops and grilled to perfection. Great combination with the Texmati rice and mushrooms. My boyfriend ordered the rack of lamb. Delish! For dessert we ordered the dark chocolate cupcake. I was not impressed with this. But I did like how they wrote Happy Birthday on the plate (I briefly mentioned earlier that it was my boyfriend's birthday). Great detail. The service was excellent. I was extremely pleased and my boyfriend had a wonderful birthday dinner.Special Features:
- Very Pleased - Can't Wait To ReturnTeamCasonVIPDined on 3/15/2014Affter much deliberation, this was a last minute switch based reviews spouted great acclaim upon this restaurant. And they DEFINITELY delivered. Wait staff was very attentive. Ambiance and decor was very nice. Food was AMAZING and out of the world. The cerviche is a must have; I'll go back just for that. The lamb chops, even well done as my wife requested, was too good for me to not assist her eating --great aroma, great taste, nice light char. And my pan seared scallops with some sort of creamy rice with mushrooms was unique and very, very tasty. I couldn't have been more pleased. For dessert,, the Gingerbead pig (cookie) with ice cream was good. Bu I'll try another dessert next time. As you can tell, we can't wait to go backSpecial Features:

IBM Exec Bemoans Lack of Industry-Specific Linux Apps 302
Posted by timothy
from the windows-lacks-compiz-fusion- dept.
from the windows-lacks-compiz-fusion- dept.
Ian Lamont writes "Bob Sutor, IBM's vice president of open source and standards, used his keynote appearance at LinuxWorld to complain about the lack of industry-specific open source apps. Despite some encouraging signs in the educational field with Sakai, Sutor said that he was 'tired of waiting' for specialized applications to appear in other sectors, adding that the proliferation of different licenses — and changing legal requirements for using the same software over time — is holding some businesses back from using open source applications."

Research Project Summary Information
IBI has developed an innovative building technology suitable for wall, floor and roof applications of buildings. The IBI Technology consists of two cellular concrete shells connected to both sides of a wire frame truss system. This connection provides a hollow core between the concrete shells that can be used for running ducts, electrical wiring, and plumbing. This core also can be filled with foamed-in-place insulation to improve the thermal performance of wall and roof panels. These panels have undergone thermal testing by an independent laboratory. A 16' X 21' single-story structure has also been erected using these panels. IBI believes it must develop better fabrication techniques in order to improve the cost-effectiveness of this product since it currently uses manual techniques to assemble the wireframe trusses. IBI would also like to demonstrate its technology by constructing a small building with it.
Map Error
The contractor will: optimize the thermal design of the IBI panel, develop and evaluate new components for assembling panels more efficiently, develop and test improved cellular concrete mixtures, develop prototype production tools and systems that increase productivity, fabricate and test the prototype production tools and systems, fabricate and test prototype IBI panels that incorporate developed design improvements, construct a small building using the panels, assess the performance of the panels, and disseminate project results.
The proposed panel would improve the R-value of walls by 30% compared to conventional wall assemblies for light commercial buildings. The panels could also reduce building construction costs by 30 to 50%. IBI projects full-scale manufacture of the proposed panel would create 15 to 25 new jobs in New York.

Western Cape
Roughly the size of England, stretching about 400 kilometers northwards along the Atlantic Ocean coast and about 500 kilometers eastwards along the Indian Ocean coast, the Western Cape offers a wide variety of popular tourist destinations and diverse climate. Most of the Western Cape is considered to have a Mediterranean climate with cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers. The interior Karoo has a semi-arid climate with cold, frosty winters and hot summers with occasional thunderstorms. The Garden Route and Overberg on the south coast have a maritime climate with cool, moist winters and mild, moist summers. Mossel Bay in the Garden Route is considered to have the second mildest climate worldwide after Hawaii. Apart from the Karoo, Thunderstorms are generally rare. Extremes of heat and cold are common inland and snow is a common winter occurrence on higher lying ground. The Prince Edward Islands are subantarctic islands, which experience year-round cool to cold temperatures with high precipitation. The Western Cape is home to one of the world's 7 floral Kingdoms, known as the Cape Floral Kingdom.

Pioli's deparature comes with the Chiefs on the verge of hiring Andy Reid as their new coach, according to league sources.
"After several productive conversations, we made the difficult decision to part ways with Scott Pioli and allow him to pursue other opportunities," Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt said. "Scott has been an invaluable member of the Chiefs family since joining us in 2009, and we sincerely appreciate his tremendous contributions over the last four years.
"I know that this was a difficult decision for Scott as well. He has a great deal of appreciation for the history of this franchise, for our players, coaches and employees, and especially our great fans."
Pioli, 47, joined the Chiefs in 2009 after nine seasons with the Patriots, where he helped to build New England's dynasty. But he failed to turn around the Chiefs, who were 23-39 in his four seasons, including a woeful 2-14 in 2012 under Rome Crennel, who was hired to replace Todd Haley during the 2011 season. Crennel was fired after this season

Patricia still looks clueless on many occasions out there. At time the way Belichick calls the defense over and goes over things you woul think he was the DC. Rob Ryan would be a better addition as well as Crennell.
Who am I kidding I still want Norm Turner to replace McD.
