Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk. The big screen resurrection of The Three Stooges — the vaudeville comedy act originally composed of Larry Fine, Moe Howard, and Curly Howard — was written and directed by the Farrelly brothers (There's Something About Mary, Dumb and Dumber). The slapstick-heavy trailer was released this week (watch it below), offering a first look at the physical antics of stars Sean Hayes (Will and Grace), Will Sasso (MADtv), and Chris Diamantopoulos (The Starter Wife). Broken up into three vignettes, the film will follow the Stooges as they grow up in an orphanage staffed by a colorful group of nuns, get embroiled in a murder mystery, and then star on a successful reality show. The film, more than a decade in the making, will be released April 4, 2012. Here, five things critics are talking about:
1. The lead actors give uncanny performances...
Credit is certainly due to the actors for "faithfully reviving the Stooges as we remember them," says Katey Rich at Cinema Blend. "If you close your eyes and give a listen, says Jason Serafino at Complex, the trio sounds "almost indistinguishable" from the real Larry, Moe, and Curly. It's worth noting, however, that when this project was first announced, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, and Jim Carrey were on board to play the Stooges, says Ben Child at the U.K.'s Guardian. Settling for their TV star replacements "is a bit like being offered" a delicious steak, and then being served canned Spam.
2. ...But the humor doesn't translate to modern times
Taking a cue from film versions of The Brady Bunch and The Addams Family, the film seems to mine flummoxed, fish-out-of-water humor by having the Stooges "permanently anchored to the decade they originated from," says Kyle Buchanan at New York. But if a lame joke about Curly not understanding the iPhone is any indication, "the Stooges don't fit into the 21st century very easily." Simply put, says Mike Lee at Fused Film, the trailer is "flat out unfunny."
3. The supporting cast looks fantastic...
The Farrely brothers assembled an all-star supporting cast to act as foils to the Stooges, including Jennifer Hudson, Jane Lynch, and, yes, Larry David as nuns, says The Improper. At the very least, says Serafino, "Larry David looks hilarious in a dress."
4. ...Except for the Jersey Shore cameos
As if the trailer's uninspired jokes aren't enough to scare you away from this film, says Matt Patches at Hollywood, Snooki shows up. The mere presence of the Jersey Shore meatheads "hardly suggests that the Farrelys are aiming for timeless classic status," says Child.
5. Nostalgia isn't a good reason to bring the Stooges back
There is certainly a marketplace for hilarious comedy in which "people fall over, get hit in the balls, otherwise humiliate themselves, and generally fall over and get hit in the head by things," says Brian Moylan at Gawker. But 2011 already has its own version of that: Jackass. This movie seems like "the worst kind of nostalgia, dipping into the canon of the Stooges but without updating it for today's audience or adding something new, interesting, or original."

The good folks at
Sporty's have introduced yet another DVD. So You Want to Fly
Seaplanes is Sporty's latest, with great video footage
and clear instructions to shed some light on the subject for land
based pilots.
"This DVD is a comprehensive learning tool for the addition of a
seaplane rating, but will also appeal to those who want to know
more about seaplanes," said Sporty's DVD Producer Bret Koebbe.
Filmed at Jack Brown's Seaplane Base in Winter Haven, Florida,
Jon Brown and John Rennie teach what flying seaplanes is all about.
You'll climb into the back seat of a Piper J-3 Cub on floats for a
pilot's eye view of all the maneuvers required for the FAA
checkride. Although not a substitute for personal instruction,
you'll learn the different taxi techniques, how to read the wind
and water and how to handle water takeoffs and landings.
Brown and Rennie give real world tips to help advance your
skills and understanding. This DVD also includes interactive extras
including a float diagram, wind and water chart and several
internet links for additional information.
With more than an hour of in-flight footage and full motion
graphics, So You Want to Fly Seaplanes is available for
$29.95, a great investment to start your seaplane training off

The National Juvenile Court Data Archive has been updated. The archive, hosted by National Center for Juvenile Justice, contains juvenile court data from across the country that is used to inform juvenile justice research and policymaking. New resources include an […]
Juvenile Justice Project
The last two decades have produced remarkable changes in state and local juvenile justice systems. An overwhelming body of research has emerged, demonstrating that using secure facilities as a primary response to youth's delinquent behavior generally produces poor outcomes at high costs. Drawing on this evidence, the MacArthur Foundation's Models for Change and the Annie E. Casey Foundation's Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative have provided the field with models for reform, research-based guidance, and technical assistance that has transformed many state and local juvenile justice systems. In part due to these efforts, between 1997 and 2011, youth confinement rates declined by almost 50 percent. During the same time period, arrests of juveniles for violent crimes also fell by approximately 50 percent, to their lowest level in over 30 years.
The importance and value of these achievements can't be overstated. At the same time, these trends alone are not sufficient for policymakers to assess the effectiveness of their state and local governments' juvenile justice systems. They must also know whether youth diverted from confinement, as well as youth who return to their communities after confinement, have subsequent contact with the justice system. In addition to recidivism data, policymakers should have information about what services, supports, and opportunities young people under system supervision need, whether these needs are being met, and to what extent these young people are succeeding as a result.
The Justice Center's Juvenile Justice Project was developed to provide guidance and support to state and local officials and other key stakeholders on what works to promote successful reentry for those youth who are under juvenile justice system supervision. The project website provides access to the latest research and recommendations for reducing recidivism and improving outcomes for youth in the juvenile justice system:
- Core Principles for Reducing Recidivism and Improving Other Outcomes for Youth in the Juvenile Justice System: This white paper distills and synthesizes the research on what works to reduce recidivism and improve outcomes for youth in the juvenile justice system into four core principles; details lessons learned from research and practice on how to implement the principles effectively; and provides examples of how state and local juvenile justice systems have operationalized the principles in practice.
- Measuring and Using Juvenile Recidivism Data to Inform Policy, Practice, and Resource Allocation: This issue brief highlights findings from a recent survey of the recidivism data collection practices of all 50 state juvenile correctional agencies and provides state and local policymakers with five recommendations for improving their approaches to the measurement, analysis, collection, reporting, and use of recidivism data for youth involved with the juvenile justice system.
- The Juvenile Justice Project also encompasses the Justice Center's ongoing delivery of training and technical assistance—through the National Reentry Resource Center—to state and local juvenile justice systems that receive grant funding through the Second Chance Act (SCA). The Justice Center is also the technical assistance provider for the U.S. Department of Justice's Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program (JMHCP). To support SCA grantees, the Justice Center runs the the National Reentry Resource Center (NRRC). For more information and resources related to "what works" to improve youth reentry and overall juvenile justice outcomes, please visit the Juvenile Justice Reentry page. To learn more about youth mental health issues, please visit the Mental Health page. To learn more about youth substance use issues, please visit the Substance Abuse page.
The Juvenile Justice Project: Looking Ahead
With the support of the MacArthur Foundation, the Justice Center is engaged in two pilot projects to apply the research and recommendations offered in the white paper and issue brief to help five state correctional agencies reduce recidivism and improve other outcomes for youth:
- The "Positioning Juvenile Justice Systems to Track Youth Outcomes Pilot Project" will help position policymakers and state juvenile correctional agencies to track and better measure, analyze, share, and use data on a priority set of recidivism and other youth outcomes to inform system policy, practice, and funding.
- The "Improving Outcomes for Youth in the Juvenile Justice System Pilot Project" will engage state juvenile justice agencies in a comprehensive assessment of to what extent they have adopted and are effectively implementing the core principles needed to reduce recidivism and improve other youth outcomes, and help them to develop and begin to advance an action plan to address priority reform needs.
The Justice Center's work in the area of juvenile justice builds upon research pioneered and supported by key partners, including the Annie E. Casey Foundation's Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation's Models for Change Initiative, Georgetown University's Center on Juvenile Justice Reform, the Council of Juvenile Correctional Administrators, the National Center for Mental Health and Juvenile Justice, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, and others. This Project is supported by the U.S. Department of Justice and the MacArthur Foundation.

Fantastic Little Mouse
This review is from: Toshiba PA3844U-1ETB Mouse
Pros: The Toshiba Nano Wireless Optical Mouse is one fantastic wireless mouse.
Cons: The only con I have for this mouse is the price is a little steep.
Other Thoughts: Another quick thought is the USB receiver may be tiny & the mouse does have a USB receiver compartment for easy & quick storage, but the USB is convenient enough where you can just leave it right in your computer.

Manchester United have made an offer of £24m for highly regarded Roma central defender Mehdi Benatia, according to the Daily Express.
The Moroccan is reportedly a target for Premier League rivals Chelsea and Manchester City, as well as German champions Bayern Munich. The sporting director of Roma, Walter Sabatini, is said to have held talks with United and Chelsea over a possible deal.
The Red Devils are desperate to sign a central defender in the remaining weeks of the transfer window, due to their lack of options in that area of the pitch. They are yet to replace experienced duo Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, while manager Louis van Gaal was forced to start with youngster Tyler Blackett in the opening day defeat to Swansea City.
Roma are fearing that Benatia could leave before the transfer deadline, but are hoping to receive a fee closer to £30m for a player they only signed last summer. The 27-year-old was instrumental in helping the club achieve second place in Serie A in 2013-14, scoring five goals in 37 outings.

A review of the new Criterion release of Monte Hellman's "The Shooting" and "Ride in the Whirlwind."
Until I watched the modestly satisfying crime thriller "Honour," I was not that aware of the existence of "honor killings." Much of the time, these are murders committed in the name of religion by a family when one of their own causes them shame. As the phrase that opens the film says: "Life is nothing without honor." And death apparently nullifies any dishonor.
This type of murder happens regularly in the insular world of Mob dramas. Just ask Joe Pesci. But to see such a scenario played out in a middle-class Muslim household in the heart of modern-day London is indeed disturbing. The film ends with the alarming fact that 5,000 girls worldwide are killed each year in this manner, according to the United Nations. A common reason? An arranged marriage has been refused or compromised by a woman's loss of virginity.
Oddly enough, there's now a celebrity angle to this topic. George Clooney just this week slammed The Daily Mail (which has since retracted its story) for fabricating the claim that the mother of his fiancée, Beirut-born British lawyer Amal Alamuddin, disapproves of their union and that jokes are circulating about his bride-to-be's life being in danger.
"Honour," for good and bad, is nowhere near as gruesome and downbeat as its subject might suggest. Instead, writer/director Shan Khan in his feature debut embraces the sensational, pulpy side of his story, while mostly ignoring the social repercussions of these harrowing acts. He engages in some noir-infused fancy business by mixing up the order of the narrative and heightens the suspense by placing the action in shadowy urban settings or focusing on surreptitious objects such as weapons and photos
But, in the end, any serious revelations about ethical and moral issues are tossed aside for a rather straight-forward narrative despite its non-linear structure that is buttressed with a few nifty detours that anyone who is familiar with Hitchcock or "The Twilight Zone" might recognize. Whatever impact the film gains from its startling subject is all but dissipated by a traditional rooftop face-off finale and a sort-of happy ending that at least strikes a blow against both bigotry and sexism.
Mona (Aiysha Hart), a pretty British-Pakistani realtor, is tired of leading a double life. At home, she must act the devoted and devout daughter. But, as a stylish career woman freed of the bonds of tradition, she takes up with a handsome Punjabi man who is promised to another. This does not go unnoticed by her stern widowed mother (Harvey Virdi, who could unnerve even Don Corleone with her utterly calm approach to righteous cruelty) or her psycho-cop elder brother (Faraz Ayub, a teapot-stout brute who has a distinctively nasty way with cursing in Urdu).
Once Mona realizes the lethal fate that is in store for her (the giveaway: her brother tries to strangle her), she goes into hiding. That is when Paddy Considine (a pip of a performer who I first fell head-over-heels for as the immigrant father in 2002's "In America") enters the picture. Not only is he a hard-nosed bounty hunter for hire who chases down runaways, but an ex-con whose Aryan Brotherhood past is revealed by his tattoos. He is on the verge of changing his racist ways, even searing off one of his offensive flesh designs with a hot knife, when he is hired to hunt down Mona—which complicates matters greatly.
Khan keeps the narrative compact though not claustrophobic and his cast members never overplay their parts, even if Virdi can make biting off a piece of thread from a sewing needle seem like an act of violence. But by putting escapist thrills first, "Honour" doesn't exactly honor itself by not digging deeper into what apparently is a serious issue of global proportions.

Great job with this.
Well, i've been doing this for a few days and I must say im scared about the "voting rights deminished". I've voted punish on every case i've reviewed frankly because they are all more ridiculous than anyone i have ever played with, some going 0/26/1, and others spamming the N word throughout the entire game in multiple games. But if you need a large majority to punish, and much less to pardon, what if 20% of voters pardon for IP won't that wreck the system and make it so people like me who vote punish on those who deserve it unable to vote?
I'm already punishing trolls and violators of the summoner's code!, Beware because I'll have no mercy!!
Smells like bitter-sweet justice in the air...
So I just did my daily cases, all went smoothly and worked fine.
Although I didnt notice things like, end game time, total team scores and smaller things like this that can influence a case.
Maybe include information that tells us if anyone was teamed with others.
It would be unfair if a 4 queue jumped in with a pug and reported him for feeding and completely blamed him for it etc. Normally a 4 man party would be on some form of VOIP so they wouldnt even have to type in the chat log.
It may be a rare case, but it is still a scenario that can happen and having someone banned because 4 people literally bullied him/her would be the epitome of unfair judgement.
Junior Member
Some reports are funny though... I had one where people reported for negative attitude and intentional feeding aswell as AFK, yet the guy had a score of a carry, way more kills and assists then deaths, and his team won. He was a bit of a jerk sure, but IMO you can't punish him for that.
Wha? I would have pardoned the guy who was doing "verbal harassment" in that example...
I mean only ONE person on the entire team and enemy team reported him and his censored "verbal harassment" apparently consisted of a single curse word repeated, more like an exclamation of anger than directed hate.
Also, it has been said that merely cursing is unbannable: http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board...25#post4196825
Clearly, you should have pardoned the first case in question.
Yeah I pardoned a guy reported for intentionally feeding, afk, and verbal harrasment who was like 21/5/10 and who's team won.

Joseph O'Neill: The story takes place in the aftermath of 9/11. One of the things it does is try to evoke the disorientation and darkness of that time, which we only emerged from with the election of President Obama.Question: What is the importance of the sport of cricket in this book? Do you play?
Joseph O'Neill: I love sport and play cricket and golf myself. Sport is a wonderful way to bring together people who would otherwise have no connection to each other.Question: One of your reviewers calls Netherland an answer to The Great Gatsby. Were you influenced by Fitzgerald's book, and was your book written with that book in mind?
Joseph O'Neill: Halfway through the book I realized with a slightly sinking feeling that the plot of Netherland was eerily reminiscent of the Gatsby plot: dreamer drowns, bystander remembers. But there are only about 5 plots in existence, so I didn't let it bother me too much. Fitzgerald thankfully steered clear of cricket.Question: Many reviewers have commented on the "voice" of this novel. How it is more a novel of voice than of plot? Do you agree with this?
Joseph O'Neill: Yes, I would agree with that comment. This is not a novel of eventful twists and turns. It is more like a long-form international cricket match (which can last for 5 days without a winner emerging), about nuance and ambiguity and small slippages of insight. And about language, of course.

Weak story and weak character development.
Once in a great while an author comes along who writes such beautiful, elegant prose that it hardly matters if the plot of the book is at all interesting.
I felt as if I was waiting for something to happen all the way through the book, and it just didn't get there.

UPDATE: 4/23 at 10:12 a.m.
A Dane County teen who gained supporters all over the county through social media has lost her battle with cancer.
According to WMTV-TV, Aly Wolff, 20, passed away on Monday.
Last December, friends of Aly created the hashtag #BiebsMeetAly in hopes of her getting the chance to meet Justin Bieber. It worked! And Aly was able to meet Justin Bieber in Chicago.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Aly's family and friends.
ORIGINAL STORY: 12/12/12 at 10:33 a.m.
Friends of a Dane County teen battling cancer are hoping to cheer her up with visit from Justin Bieber.
Aly Wolff, 20, from Mcfarland was diagnosed with liver cancer halfway through her freshman year at UW-Oshkosh.
"It's been pretty hard just because you never feel 100 percent ever," Wolff tells WMTV-TV.
To get Biebs attention, Aly's friend Ariel Arneson started the Facebook page "Biebs Meet Aly" less than a week ago. According to a post on the Facebook page, Aly's wish will come true.
Their Facebook page has more than 12,000 likes and Aly even received a tweet from Governor Walker saying, "Good luck, Aly. I hope you get your wish."
The girls are going to Justin Bieber's concert on Saturday in Chicago and will meet him then.

Iran: President Ahmadinejad unveils new fighter jet

Iran unveiled what it said was a new, domestically built fighter jet on Saturday, local media reported.President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said at a ceremony in Tehran that the Qaher 313 demonstrated Iran's growing self-reliance in the field of military technology.Iran's functional air force has been limited to perhaps as few as a few dozen strike aircraft, either Russian or aging US models acquired before the 1979 Iranian revolution.The Islamic Republic, under an international arms embargo, has long struggled to find spare parts and some military experts say the fleet is outdated."This advanced fighter jet with unique physical characteristics has a very low radar cross section and therefore is capable of operating at low altitudes," Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said of the Qaher 313, according to Mehr news agency.Tensions in the region have simmered over Tehran's nuclear program. Israel has threatened to bomb its nuclear sites if diplomacy and sanctions fail to stop Iranian nuclear activity the West suspects is aimed at developing a weapons capability.Iran denies the weapons charge, saying it seeks only electricity and medical isotopes."Now the speed of Iran's development in science and technology does not depend on circumstances, it depends on our will," Ahmadinejad said on Saturday in remarks carried on state television. "We should set higher targets. We see that it is possible, we have the capabilities.""This project carries the message of brotherhood, peace, and security and it doesn't pose any threat to anyone. There is no intention to interfere in any other country's affairs," he said.Iran often holds military drills and announces weapons advances that it says are for purely deterrent purposes, though some analysts are skeptical of such reported advances because they cannot be independently verified.Western sanctions levied on Iran's energy and banking sectors have damaged its economy and limited oil sales, a major source of revenue for the government. But Tehran has shown no sign of backing down from what it says is its right to enrich uranium for civilian uses.Iran is commemorating the 34th anniversary of the 1979 Islamic revolution that toppled the US-backed Shah in 10 days of events that began on Thursday.

Even a poorly written (not yours, in general) but interesting submission should be displayed to us as a very well written submission, period, every time. That's what editors are for!
I very rarely complain about the editors and stay out of the beta discussions (but beta does suck) but I am getting as tired as everyone else with some of the submissions these days.

It goes to show that, especially in the computer security world, no good deed goes unpunished. You hear about it over and over, try to tell someone something is wrong with their computer security and the instant reaction is to shoot the messenger.
e.g., the preference of certain personality types for functional, static and strongly typed languages.
My guess is that this has a bigger impact on most projects than actual features of a chosen language. I was thinking it the whole time I read the summary and then, sure enough, it's mentioned as a disclaimer at the end...
what is the point of using the Web?
The posix subsystem was usable on NT4. Not so much since then. The latest version is basically a wrapper around the GNU tools and is more about Microsoft checking boxes on government forms when bidding on projects than anything else.
Cygwin is not perfect but I'd say it has far less issues than what MS offers.
Network authentication for UNIX systems relies on the insecure NIS protocol (LDAP- and Kerberos-based authentication require a third-party solution). Microsoft has released several hotfixes for Windows Services for UNIX, and at least one Security Update (KB939778). The GNU Project utilities are several versions older than the latest ones. A separate port of the up-to-date Debian utilities was started in 2007, but apparently abandoned in 2009.[26] Several of the text processing utilities in SUA (e.g. awk) are not compatible with Unicode or wide character text files.
I can't think of one application where Cygwin would not be far more beneficial than MS's half ass attempt at being Unixy.
As if ensuring the survival of the human race isn't "productive". And, personally, I can''t think of anything more important that my wife does than be the awesome mother she is to our children. Now, while she's young and has the energy to go outside and play with them...

Disclosure: This post contains photos of crochet projects, but I promise to not become a crazy-crocheting-grandmother-gone-wild. You have my solemn pledge.
During the time I was away in October, I enjoyed making small crochet projects in my downtime, anticipating cupcake's arrival. Everything I made was super simple (I actually made up a couple of designs, using bits and pieces from separate patterns) and I can see how it would be easy to get carried away and whip out a dozen or more each. (See Disclosure.)
The amazing thing about crochet projects is a) for every design out there, you can find a hundred different patterns that will result in that design, with a few variations throughout; b) there are free patterns galore on the Internet, nice people who share either their own design, or the design of another crocheter (with permission) for no charge at all; and c) if you have no prior knowledge of crocheting, you can pretty much learn how via YouTube tutorials, including how to interpret a pattern.
Oh, the world in which we live.
Recently, I came across the easiest and prettiest heart pattern that I've tried yet, which is why I'm sharing it with you. This photo came from the link for the instructions, but you can see the two pink ones I made in a collage from my Monday post.
The designer of this heart pattern is June Gilbank and she is from South Africa. June asks for donations if you download the PDF version of the pattern, but she posts the pattern on her blog and states that the pattern is free for the using, so I took her up on that. Thank you, dear June.
I especially like the smallest heart (could it be any cuter?) and made this little white one to attach to a store-bought hat, shown in the above-referenced posted. I added the extra circular embellishments to the heart, for no reason and just because. (See Disclosure.)
Until next time, dear friends, my hands may or may not be busy. Carry on and keep crocheting.

Leica's 25-50x WW Aspherical Eyepiece for their 65mm and 82mm Televid spotting scopes is an exciting watershed device, a reason unto itself to choose Leica over the other premium brands. It is the first zooming telescope eyepiece which has a wide angle of apparent field of view throughout its zooming range, instead of exclusively in the higher-magnification range as is the case with other zooms.
The apparent field here goes from 59 to an astounding 80°, surrounding your eye with a view that is only more vast in a handful of fixed-magnification extreme wide angle specialists in the astronomy realm. Despite this, eye relief maintains a constant, comfortable distance of 19mm. Like any modern eyepiece it has a rubber armored body with helicoid-style eyecup, and like all Leica eyepieces it is nitrogen filled and individually tested to assure its watertight status.

'We Kenyans have a lot of talent' - trailblazing Victor Wanyama is anxious to be a success at Southampton
Midfielder is keen to trigger interest in Kenyan players from Premier League clubs
Published: 04 February 2014
Updated: 09:43, 04 February 2014
Victor Wanyama made history on his Southampton debut in August as it meant Kenya became the 100th country outside of the United Kingdom to have a Premier League player.
Wanyama had long dreamed of making his mark in the Premier League but had hoped it would be for what he achieved on the pitch, rather than through a quirk of fate.
As a child in Nairobi, the midfielder wanted to be the next Patrick Vieira or Roy Keane of the Premier League and, during Southampton's early-season rise to fourth, some pundits said they could see a touch of Vieira in his play.
As I remind him of that, he laughs: "Yeah, people did say I play like Vieira. I like going forward from midfield. The manager does not ask me to stay back but you have to pick the moments to go." But then, as if realising this may sound as if he is trying to present himself as the new Vieira, he says: "It is not for me to say I am a Vieira."
What the Kenya captain will talk about are his ambitions that go beyond personal glory. "Everyone back home is looking up at me to show people that Kenyans can play and open doors to others. We Kenyans have a lot of talent. It's just that we don't have scouts going there. I hope I will raise the profile so in the future the scouts go there, then our players can show their skills."
His own opportunities to persuade scouts to get on the next plane to east Africa received a setback in December when he chipped a bone in his leg against Aston Villa, sidelining him for nearly two months. But as we speak, just hours after his return in Saturday's match at Fulham, where the Saints won 3-0, it is clear the joy that marked his game before the injury is back.
He laughs at the thought that Mauricio Pochettino sees him as a lucky charm. "Maybe. I was unlucky to get injured and the injury was really bad, a hairline fracture. It was very hard for me. It put me back six, seven weeks. I had not played any games before Saturday. I was fit but did not know when I was going to play. Then before the match the manager said he wanted me to play and told me to go and express myself."
Those were also the words Pochettino used when he signed Wanyama from Celtic for a then club record fee of £12.5million. His arrival was also the work of Nicola Cortese, then managing director. "He, along with the manager, convinced me to come here. I think he had good plans for the club."
Those plans seemed in tatters when Cortese quit last month after a disagreement with owner Katharina Liebherr. The squad have since been addressed by the owner and Wanyama said: "She came and spoke to the team. Everything went well."
Impact: Wanyama, seen here in action for Southampton, is quick to credit Europe for his footballing education It will take more than news of such a meeting to reassure fans, more so if Pochettino, brought to the club by Cortese, leaves at the end of the season. "I really don't know about that," says Wanyama. "I cannot speak for the manager. My relationship with the manager is just to work on the pitch.
"I arrived in Southampton soon after he arrived [in January 2013], so it was a little bit easier for me to adapt to his style and gel with the team. The manager brought his own style of play, more of a passing game. He wants us to really pass the ball and we talk about how I can improve."
Pochettino usually gives his press conferences in Spanish but Wanyama says: "He speaks a little bit of English which everyone understands and I have a very good relationship with him. But managers are always under pressure and it's not easy."
The job became all the harder for Pochettino when record signing Dani Osvaldo headbutted Jose Fonte during training two weeks ago. I am talking to Wanyama just as news has emerged that Osvaldo has been sent on loan to Juventus, with the Italians having an option to buy the striker in the summer.
Not surprisingly this is one subject Wanyama does not want to discuss. "I don't want to say anything about that because I get along with everyone."
He is so keen to impress on me how all the players get on that he says his life at the club's training ground is even better than the one he experienced at Celtic. The Parkhead club left him with many great memories and he scored the winner against Barcelona in November 2012. "It's the best goal I've ever scored," the 22-year-old says.
But, while he emphasises he got on with all the squad at Celtic, he says: "I would say my team-mates here [at Southampton] have been a little bit easier to get on with because they are really good team-mates They've also been very helpful in making me part of the team here."
Wanyama's affection for his team-mates may reflect the fact they have helped him get to grips with the English game. "Here the pace is much faster, the intensity is much higher. It takes a bit of time to adjust. In England I would say you don't have that time on the ball that you get in Scotland. So I had to adapt to the pace here."
Adjusting to different conditions is something Wanyama has been doing since he was 13, when he came from Nairobi to join the academy at Helsingborg, the club his brother McDonald Mariga was playing for. He thought of following his sibling to Parma, when McDonald moved to Italy in 2007 but still only 16, Wanyama says: "I just wanted to go home." Home meant the JMJ Academy in Nairobi. But this only lasted a few months before he returned to Europe, joining Anderlecht.
He is quick to credit Europe for his footballing education. "If you come to Europe from Africa you have to always prove yourself. But I have learned a lot in Europe, in terms of the game and also the physical side of it."
He has also learned how to adjust to grim news that can go much beyond the game. So last September, as he was in his hotel room in Liverpool preparing for his first visit to Anfield, news came through of the terrorist attack at the Westgate Mall in Nairobi. Reassured his relations were safe, he went on to play a major part in Southampton's triumph that day.
"With the incident happening before the game it was a tough time for me," he says. "But when I'm on the pitch I try and forget everything and just play football because I love it."

New Rugged Trimble Pro Series GNSS Receivers Provide Total Flexibility for GIS and Mobile Mapping Productivity
Better Roads Staff | April 18, 2012
SUNNYVALE, Calif., —Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) introduced today the next generation of its Trimble® GPS Pathfinder® family—the Trimble Pro 6H and Pro 6T receivers for GIS and mobile mapping. The Trimble Pro series with advanced features allows mobile workers to configure a solution for a wide range of applications, delivering unparalleled flexibility in professional GIS data collection. The series offers a new streamlined form-factor and dramatic productivity improvements in difficult GNSS environments with Trimble Floodlight™ technology.
The modular Trimble Pro series receiver gives users the flexibility to choose their setup configurations:
•Optimized for use with Trimble data collection devices such as the Trimble Juno® or Nomad® G series handhelds, or Yuma® tablet computer, the Trimble Pro series can also be used with other tablets and handhelds with NMEA output
•Real-time or postprocessed GIS workflows
•The receiver can be deployed in a backpack, on a pole or mounted on a vehicle
• Two models are available—the Trimble Pro 6H delivers decimeter accuracy, while the Pro 6T is the submeter model for standard GIS applications
"With the availability of the new Pro series receivers, data collection professionals now have access to the productivity-enhancements of Floodlight technology in both integrated and modular configurations," said Daniel Wallace, general manager of Trimble's GIS Data Collection Division. "While some prefer the convenience of an integrated, all-in-one handheld, others will appreciate the Pro series' flexibility to choose from a range of data collection devices such as a high-resolution tablet or lightweight Trimble Juno."
Improved Performance in Tough GNSS Environments with Trimble Floodlight Technology
For maximum productivity in high-accuracy applications, Trimble Floodlight technology allows users to collect decimeter accuracy data in the toughest GNSS environments. Buildings and trees can cause satellite shadow and limit the environments where high-accuracy GNSS data collection can be performed. Unique to Trimble, Floodlight technology combines a range of innovative techniques to increase the availability of positions and boost accuracy in areas affected by satellite shadow. Using Floodlight technology, the Pro series can keep teams productive without compromising on accuracy. Users can work with fewer disruptions and ensure better data, faster data collection and higher field efficiency.
Built for Intensive Data Collection Campaigns
Trimble Pro series receivers are rugged and built to withstand the rigors of long hours in tough outdoor conditions, yet optimized for high-accuracy GIS data collection workflows. For applications such as utilities inspections and timber stand valuations, Trimble Pro receivers provide long battery life and tough construction for dependable service over the course of rigorous data collection projects.
With its IP65 rating, the receivers offer reliable operation, even after prolonged exposure to water and dust. An integrated antenna reduces the complexity of the system for fast setup and swift data collection campaigns. Field workers can be up and running with minimal training, saving time and money. Combined with a Trimble handheld solution and Trimble TerraSync™ software, the complete system provides dedicated field workflows to simplify data collection and improve integration with the GIS for total workflow improvements.
The new Trimble Pro 6H and 6T receivers are available now from Trimble's worldwide Mapping & GIS authorized distribution channel. For more information, visit: www.trimble.com/pro.

Almost every house in the vicinity of an iron ore mine in Goa's Sanguem, Sattari and Bicholim talukas is likely to have a 10 tonne tipper truck parked in its backyard. Some have 2, 3 or even 4 trucks parked. In all, there were about 25,000 such trucks serving the iron ore industry in Go.
Until recently, these trucks ferried ore from the mines to ports and other locations.
That changed in September, when mining operations came to a standstill after a temporary ban imposed by the state government. The trucks are now idle.
On December 7th, an expert panel set up by the Supreme Court recommended cancellation of 42 iron ore mining licenses in Goa.
The truck economy was one way for the mining industry to share the spoils of this highly ecology insensitive industry with the local people. Mainline companies such as Sesa Goa, Fomento and Lithoferro offer trucking contracts to locals affected by the mining.
The iron ore industry has been accused of destroying the ecology of the region. Mr Anthony Fernandes, a resident of Codli in South Goa district, has been protesting the destruction of water tables by mining near his house. The well on his property goes dry in March. His daughter Pearl, 21, has been writing to newspapers complaining about the practices of the mining industry.
Yet, there are two trucks parked in the property. Mr Fernandes said that they belong to his sister. They do not have space to park.
Apart from causing pollution and blocking roads for hours on end, the trucks were said to be responsible for one death a day in the state.
How does the mining industry share its profits through the trucks? A truck costs around INR 12 lakh to INR 14 lakh and EMI on the loans cost around INR 30,000 or so every month. These loans are guaranteed by the mining companies. The owner of the truck easily earns around INR 12,000 to INR18,000 a day for about 160 to 170 days in a year. After paying EMIs, the driver's salary and the fuel costs, the truck owner makes INR 16 lakh to INR 18 lakh a year. That is around INR 1.5 lakh a month. In some of the busier mining areas it is even more.
Mr Vijay Kumar Uday Desai a farmer at Pissurlem said that in addition to trucks, the locals often also invest in mining equipment. They do not even need to buy. They can lease it and then lease it to mining companies at an even higher fee.
Mr Desai said that "This easy money is destroying us. While he protests mining, members of his family have invested in trucks. We were a group of nine friends in school, and today five of them are dead. The easy money led to drinking and gambling that killed them."
