The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Former Iran assassin says alleged plot 'makes no sense'
Dawud Salahuddin, an American fugitive in Tehran who carried out 1980
hit near Washington, argues that Iran would not try to kill the Saudi
ambassador to the US for fear of provoking war.
By Scott Peterson, Staff writer / October 14, 2011
In Tehran, an unexpected source is expressing doubt about the
assassination plot laid out by US officials, alleging that Iran was
behind plans to kill the top Saudi Arabian diplomat in Washington and
blow up embassies.
Dawud Salahuddin, an American fugitive who in 1980 was the last - and
only - US citizen known to have killed on behalf of Iran's revolutionary
regime, on US soil, says the plot borders on the unbelievable.
Both strategically and operationally, in terms of Iran's worldview and
its way of doing business, the information made public so far about the
assassination plot does not add up, says Mr. Salahuddin, a black
American convert to Islam, who was born David Theodore Belfield.
"For all the noise that comes out of this country, the Iranians know
full well they are no military match for the Americans; they know that
better than they know their names," says Salahuddin, who spoke to the
Monitor by telephone from his home west of Tehran. "So the notion that
[the Iranians] are going to bring that down on them, that just makes no
sense at all."
Iran assassination plot: Four attacks that have been blamed on Iran
"Why would the Iranians blow up embassies in Washington DC? The last
thing the Iranians want is a war with the Americans," he adds. "This
regime: They're interested in staying in power."
A 1980 assassination
That was also the case not long after Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution,
when Salahuddin was recruited to assassinate Ali Akbar Tabatabai, a
vocal critic of the fledgling religious regime.
Dressed as a mailman when he approached Mr. Tabatabai's residence in
Bethesda, Maryland, on July 22, 1980, Salahuddin killed the former
Shah-era press attache by firing three bullets into his abdomen.
The homicide report described the shooting as a "political
assassination," and stated that the victim had founded a group "whose
goal was the overthrow of the present regime in Iran."
Salahuddin fled to Iran via Canada and Europe, and ever since has lived
unhappily as a fugitive, mostly in Tehran. He fought with the mujahideen
against the Soviets in Afghanistan, has worked as journalist and editor,
and even played a role in the 2001 Mohsen Makhmalbaf film "Kandahar."
He has a host of contacts throughout Iran's regime and its intelligence
services, but is often very critical of the Islamic Republic and the
unfulfilled promises of its revolution.
Salahuddin's time in Iran - he speaks Farsi and is married to an Iranian
- has given him particular insight into the workings of the regime. He
has kept a close eye on world events, especially politics in his native
United States. Salahuddin has in years past been contacted by US
authorities, for a variety of reasons.
For him, the alleged assassination plot detailed by US officials this
week portrays an unlikely Keystone Kops scenario that has been blown out
of proportion by Washington as an election campaign gets underway.
President Barack Obama on Thursday slammed Iran's "dangerous and
reckless behavior," and demanded "accountability" from Iran for any
officials "engaging in this kind of activity."
US diplomatic missions around the world have been tasked with trying to
convince their host governments to further isolate and pressure Iran,
with special attention paid to Russia, China, and Turkey - all of which
have been reluctant to add to four sets of UN sanctions already imposed
upon Iran.
'Too many action movies growing up'
The US case centers around an Iranian-American from Corpus Christi,
Texas, called Mansour Arbabsiar, and at least three members of the Quds
Force, the elite branch of the Revolutionary Guard that handles covert
operations abroad - apparently identified through intercepted
communications and Mr. Arbabsiar's confession.
News reports from Corpus Christi indicate that Arbabsiar is an unlikely
Iranian 007, with his taste for whiskey and absent-minded demeanor.
"Do you think the Quds Force would choose a guy like that? I don't think
so," says Salahuddin. "There is no real credible link between the guy
and the government. ... I think he probably binged on too many action
movies when he was growing up."
Arbabsiar "said he is the cousin of a famous general," but also
conversed on open phone lines. The transfer of $100,000 to a US account,
allegedly as a down payment to Mexican Zetas drug cartel hit men for the
killing of the Saudi diplomat, is also strange, notes Salahuddin,
because "every" Iranian knows that any transfer over $10,000 is
"There is nothing in this guy's background that would prepare him for
anything like that," says Salahuddin. "I mean, murder is something - you
have to feel pretty intensely about something, in order to try that one.
But here's a guy who, for all practical purposes, all he was interested
in was making a living."
From black power to Islamic revolution
Salahuddin was a student of the black power movement of the 1960s and
1970s, and was deeply affected by racial violence and the slayings of
Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. He told The New Yorker in 2002
the he had been an "angry and alienated" black American: "I was primed
for violence, and I thought about cratering the White House a quarter
century before Al Qaeda did. It would be accurate to say that my biggest
aspiration was to bring America to its knees, but I didn't know how."
Salahuddin respected the ideals of Islam as colorblind, as well as the
stated aims of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's revolution.
"I began reading the Koran when I was actually in university, at Howard
University campus," recalled Salahuddin in a 2006 documentary called
"American Fugitive." "I'd read the Bible, too, I'd been in church,
catechism studies. But when I began to read the Koran it made sense to
me. ... From that time on, I was hooked."
In the film, Salahuddin discusses the assassination he committed, and
weighs it up against the Islamic injunction against killing anyone -
much less a fellow Muslim believer.
But operationally, he says the 1980 murder offers little relevant
experience when compared to the alleged Iranian plot today, because
"everything has changed since then."
For one thing, since then Iranian hit squads have assassinated scores of
regime opponents, across Europe and Iraq, in the 1980s and early 1990s.
Some were spectacular hits, but none in recent years.
Several attempts in the US that Salahuddin was aware of failed; after
his successful hit, he says, "everyone else [in the US] went underground
for 10 years, and started wearing bulletproof vests."
'Iranians killing Iranians'
"When you speak about Iranian terrorism, you speak about Iranians
killing Iranians, you don't hear about Iranians blowing up an entire
restaurant just to get one Saudi, or an Israeli embassy," notes
Salahuddin. "Those are acts of war."
He says he has been surprised by the immediate and tough response from
Mr. Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who have ramped up
their rhetoric for more sanctions, as some US lawmakers have called for
more serious action.
"It's incredible. It makes me think, for all the so-called intelligence
in the American administration, they have absolutely no imagination...
they think that Iran is such an easy scapegoat," says Salahuddin.
"The only beneficiaries in a scenario like this, which I believe is
absolutely false, are the Americans and the Israelis," adds Salahuddin.
"It seems to me that the administration is playing to the public,
instead of playing to reality. Because this notion is unreality, that
the Iranians are going to be doing this kind of thing."

Liquid Boyshorts
Style # 187549
AVAILABILITY: Unavailable for immediate shipment.
Add a punch of futuristic cool to your activewear collection with this pair of bebe liquid shorts.
- 80% nylon, 20% spandex
- Rise: 8" (20 cm)
- Inseam: 3" (8 cm)
- Leg opening: 18" (46 cm)
- Machine wash
- Made in USA
- Model is 5'9" and is wearing a US size S
Liquid Boyshorts
Shiny! But not standard
These are not the standard boyshorts. i.e., look at the picture. It's not possible to make shorts this shiny in a soft material like the other boyshorts (of which I have six). I have these in gold, and I love them, I use them for pole dance and other fun activities, but I would not buy these if you want to, say, go for an hour long run in them, as the material is designed for style and fun, not comfort and moisture-wicking.
Bottom line: I love them, they're super cute, but look carefully at the picture and recognize what you're buying in advance!
Fit the same as other bebe sport shorts, I'm 5'5", 115lbs, and I wear an XS.
June 10, 2013
In my opinion, these shorts are much better than the other reviewers are saying. They are exactly as shown on the model, sexy, shiny, short and tight. If you want to show off what you're working out for, then buy these shorts now. They fit true to my bebe size, I am 5 ft 5, 135 lbs, I buy medium. I have black, gold and silver colors in this style and they all fit perfectly.
January 23, 2013
Not thrilled...Uncomfortable wearing these...
"Usually when I purchase liquid shorts, or leggings they are almost always silky to the touch. These were not, and even with my normal size a bit too snug in certain places."
October 6, 2011
Over the top
"I purchased these shorts because I liked the regular boyshorts from bbsp, but these were really unflattering! I bought a size bigger and since most of bebe's tops run short and only hits the top of the hip, these are too shiny to wear around. It might be okay with longer tops, but it's definitely being returned. I can't wait for bebe to come out with their regular boyshorts in more colors."

I actually sat down to write a blog post this morning but I was too nervous. There were a million and one clichés out there and the whole there is no way/we can totally do this refrain was running through my head. I decided to wait. I had to leave my radio and TV shortly after the game got started, so I got my score updates from a variety of roundabout means and finally got home right at the top of the 10th. I missed a good bit of the torture, but I also got to experience plenty of it. The Giants came out on top, 2-1, in the tightest of pitching duels.
Anna Wintour would be proud. (Or would she be? On second thought, she would probably not be the least bit proud. But you know what I mean.)
Ryan Vogelsong put together what has to be one of the more amazing and touching performances of the playoffs so far and when he told the story of Jamie Moyer's text to him prior to the game on KNBR, the win took on a whole new meaning to me. Hunter Pence's words, as well, that it was as simple as this team wanting to play a few more games together, were spot on. It comes down to that at this time of year, doesn't it? Win or lose, there aren't a whole lot of games left. We have to enjoy the ride – even when it's terrible and torturous.
Barry Zito will take the mound tomorrow in a strange and fitting twist of fate and the world is pretty much resting on his shoulders. 1:07 tomorrow can simultaneously not come fast enough and is coming far too fast. Anyone have a bottle of nail polish to help me calm the nerves? Thanks. You guys are the best.

"Praying With Music: How Music can Draw us Deeper Into Prayer and Liturgy"
Presented by Alan Lukas, Director of Music, Diocese of Buffalo & Christ the King Seminary
The hymns we sing in church are most often poems set to music. But do we ever take the opportunity to pray these poems? Do we answer the questions they present? Do we endeavor to succeed in the evangelizing mission they put forth? The hymns we sing can be a powerful tool in our prayer life. This retreat experience will give us the opportunity to break open the hymn texts that we sing so that we can sing the church, not just sing at church.
Alan Lukas is the Director of Music for the Diocese of Buffalo, and Director of Music and full time faculty member at Christ the King Seminary. In addition, he has been involved in parish music ministry since his early days of high school and continues that parish ministry today at All Saints Church in Buffalo and St. Pauls Church in Kenmore. He is the founder and director of the 60-voice Buffalo Diocesan Festival Chorus which sings for major diocesan liturgical celebrations at St. Joseph Cathedral. Alan has degrees in music from The Catholic University of America and SUNY at Fredonia.

US to Slap Isolated Iran With New Sanctions
VOA News
The United States is getting ready to hit Iran with new, tougher
sanctions, with one top official saying Tehran now faces an
"unprecedented" degree of isolation.
U.S. officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity late Friday, said
the sanctions could be unveiled as early as Monday and would target
Iran's petrochemical industry. They said the new sanctions would seek
to stop foreign companies from investing in ventures like oil
The officials said foreign companies that violate the ban would be cut
off from access to the U.S. market, and that European countries could
introduce similar sanctions later next week.
Separately, U.S. national security adviser Tom Donilon said Saturday
that Iran is finding itself more isolated than ever before.
Donilon spoke to reporters while traveling with U.S. President Barack
Obama in Indonesia. The national security adviser also said that like
the U.S., China and Russia want to make sure Iran does not develop
nuclear weapons.
On Friday, both China and Russia sought to ease the tone of a resolution
by the United Nations' nuclear watchdog that was critical of Tehran.
The final wording cited "deep and increasing concern" over Iran's
nuclear activities but stopped short of referring Iran to the U.N.
Security Council or setting a deadline for the country to comply with
the International Atomic Energy Agency's requests for additional
The 35-member IAEA board adopted the measure about a week after
announcing in a report that there is "credible" evidence Iran is trying
to build nuclear weapons.
Iran has dismissed the IAEA report. The country's IAEA envoy, Ali Ashgar
Soltanieh, said the measure will only strengthen Iran's determination to
continue its uranium enrichment activities.
He also said Iran would not attend a U.N. atomic forum next week
focusing on efforts to create a Middle East region free of nuclear
The U.S. praised the IAEA for passing the resolution. A White House
statement says the agency "spoke with a unified voice" in holding Tehran
accountable for its "continued failure to live up to international

It does not take a research report to figure out that the early trendsetters in fashion and electronics are teenagers. If you have teens, or have been around them, you instantly know how they are into the latest clothes or gadgets.
I once had a highly regarded colleague at a prior investment management firm who was a research analyst for retail sector stocks. He often took his teenage daughter and her friends to the mall so he could see which stores they liked and what products they bought. His stock picks were some of the best in the retail sector.
Another reason to pay attention to what teens are buying is that they are some of the biggest spenders on goods and services. "Last year young shoppers spent over $170 billion—double the amount just 10 years earlier," according to ABC News.
A year ago, I set up a brokerage account for each of my two daughters at TD Ameritrade, a discount brokerage firm. Since the sum of money was small and transaction costs were a problem ($8.99 per trade), I suggested they each pick only two stocks in which to invest. I realize this strategy goes against the grain of diversification, but I wanted my daughters to engage in the market, and I certainly was not going to let them loose with a large amount of money. I also believe it is more important to invest in the right sector or asset class rather than in the right stocks, so I like to use exchange-traded funds (ETFs). However, I knew that approach would bore them. My daughters picked Apple (AAPL), Starbucks (SBUX), McDonald's (MCD), and Free People (owned by Urban Outfitters, URBN).
For those of you who invest in individual stocks, you know the incredible run that these stocks have had with the exception of URBN.
Obviously there was no fundamental analysis done on the company's financials to drive their purchase decisions other than their knowledge that these retailers were incurring an acceleration of topline growth (my description, not my daughters'). It is not a strategy that I recommend other than a good starting point for some investment ideas. Subsequently, you will need to do your own analysis prior to investing.
The greatest benefit for me has been to see their enthusiasm about investing and their pride in their success. I am grateful we took this course and especially grateful that we did not start investing in 2008.

'It should not be like this': Lockport crash victim mourned
BY SUSAN DEMAR LAFFERTY firstname.lastname@example.com December 17, 2012 12:52PM
A memorial for Jackie Rudd can be seen at the southeast corner of Cedar Road and 167th Street on Monday, Dec. 17, 2012, in Homer Glen. | Matthew Grotto~Sun-Times Media

Updated: January 19, 2013 6:14AM
Like many of his Lockport Township High School classmates, junior Nick Kaleel wore pink Monday.
Pink ribbons also adorned trees in front of the school's East Campus building.
The gestures were in memory of a "loving," "smiling" classmate — Jackie Rudd, a junior from Homer Glen, who was killed Saturday in a car accident only a couple of miles from school. She was the second Lockport student in the past three months to die in a car accident.
"It should not be like this," Kaleel, wearing a pink hooded sweatshirt, said as he recalled memories of his childhood friend.
"She was a very loving, caring girl," he said. "She was the nicest girl I ever met."
The mood was "very somber and sedate" at the school as students and staff grieved, Lockport Township High School District 205 spokeswoman Kim Brehm said.
Rudd was a member of the varsity poms squad and active in the National Honor Society.
The 16-year-old was pronounced dead in the Silver Cross Hospital emergency room at 4:55 p.m. Saturday after the car she was driving collided with a Ford F-250 pickup truck at Division Street and Cedar Road in Lockport, according to the Will County coroner's office.
Rudd was driving a 1998 BMW east on 167th Street at about 4:15 p.m. when she collided with the truck, driven by a 49-year-old Mokena man who was southbound on Cedar Road, Lockport police said. The accident remains under investigation.
Her death comes three months after that of Jay Vana, 16, who was killed in a car accident at Lauffer and Haas roads in Homer Glen. Both were members of Lockport's junior class.
The deaths of two classmates have hit home with some students.
"Personally, I'm more aware when I'm driving," said Nicole Zembol, who sat next to Rudd in math class.
While it was hard to see Rudd's empty desk in class Monday, the teacher announced that Rudd had earned an 87 on a math quiz she took the day before she died, Zembol said.
"Everyone was crying," she said.
"She was a really good student, just an all-around good person. This is just horrible," said Taylor Stevens, a senior from Homer Glen.
Senior Tori Cifonie, of Lockport, recalled that Rudd had made the varsity poms team as a freshman.
"She was always smiling," she said.
"She loved to dance," Kaleel said.
Students were planning a vigil Monday night at the memorial tree in the Farrell Road parking lot of the school.
Kaleel said others planned to bring Vana's bright green car to the vigil.
"This is extremely sad. People are really stunned," Brehm said. "The school is very much aware that this will be harder for some students. It may bring back the experience of losing their friend a few months ago."
Counselors and social workers were available for anyone who needed support, she said.
Rudd was a "beautiful young lady and a great student," Brehm said. "She will be missed by many friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family."
Julie Decaire, the junior-varsity poms coach at Lockport for the past two years, knows the Rudd family, including Jackie's younger sister Jessie, a member of the JV poms team.
"Jackie was a beautiful, motivated, caring young woman. She always had the biggest smile that would light up any room," Decaire said in an email.
"The younger girls on the team looked to Jackie as a role model because of her positive attitude and kind heart. She truly was beautiful inside and out, and anyone who has met her would say the same," she said.
Rudd is survived by her parents, William and Michelle Rudd, her sister Jessie and a brother, Billy.
Visitation will be from 2 to 9 p.m. Wednesday at Kurtz Memorial Chapel, which is operated by Vana's family, at 102 E. Francis Road, New Lenox. Funeral services will be at 9 a.m. Thursday at Parkview Christian Church, 11100 Orland Parkway, Orland Park.

The Composers
Igor (Fyodorovich) Stravinsky
One of the most influential composers of the twentieth century, Stravinsky's adoption of every important stylistic trend while still remaining indisputably himself, betrays a remarkable kind of creative kleptomania. Motivated no doubt by his emigré lifestyle, the constant re-invention of his musical voice produced a bewildering variety of works that span the final flowering of Russian nationalism under Rimsky-Korsakov to the severity of post-war Serialism.
Born in June 1882, the son of a fine bass-baritone opera singer, Stravinsky was exposed from a young age to a musical lifestyle, frequent visitors to the Stravinsky household including Rimsky-Korsakov, Borodin and Mussorgsky. Having begun to study law at St Petersburg University in 1901, his wish to follow a musical career led to harmony and counterpoint lessons with Rimsky-Korsakov's students and, eventually, to composition lessons with the old master himself.
Having married his cousin Katya in 1906, his glittering and polished orchestral works were becoming noticeable in St Petersburg's music circles. Although often dismissed as insubstantial, they caught the eye of impressario Serge Diaghilev and, after Stravinsky had orchestrated some music for his ballet russes, he eventually commissioned Stravinsky to write a ballet based on a Russian fairy-tale, The Firebird.
A spectacular overnight success in Paris, The Firebird was followed by Petrushka (1911) and The Rite of Spring (1913). The latter ballet's infamous first performance riot was a merely a blip in Stravinsky's Parisian popularity; he was mobbed by admirers at a performance the following year.
The mixed reception of his works in Russia, however, prompted six years of self-imposed exile in Switzerland, during which time the Revolution further isolated him from his homeland. A permanent move to France took place in 1920, where Stravinsky embarked on a number of love affairs, notably with Coco Chanel and, most importantly, with Vera Sudeykina who became his mistress.
The years in France mark the start of Stravinsky's neo-classicism. With Works such as the Octet, he abandoned the old Russian style and began to take inspiration from the classicism of German traditions, from the Baroque and Classical eras, eventually producing such clean 'white-on-white' works as Apollon musagète.
An increasing commitment to concert tours, including a duo with Samuel Dushkin, and an interest in early recording technology also characterised these years. Several tours to the USA and a number of American commissions suggested the possibility of a move further West, and in September 1939, after the tragic deaths of his wife, daughter and mother, Stravinsky sailed for America.
After marrying his mistress, Vera, and filing for US citizenship, Stravinsky moved to Hollywood in the spring of 1941, moving in primarily emigré circles. With money short and royalties from war-ravaged Europe drying up, Stravinsky attempted to write more commerically minded music. His attempts at film music eventually found their way into the Symphony in Three Movements and Four Norwegian Moods.
The last neo-classical works, the ballet Orpheus (1948) and the opera The Rake's Progress (1951), to a libretto by W H Auden, coincide with the arrival on the scene of Robert Craft. Craft, as Stravinsky's assistant, began to introduce him to the works of the younger generation and to culturally alter his outlook.
Having heard tapes of Serial music including works by Webern and Schoenberg, Stravinsky became disturbed that his recent music did not interest the younger European composers in the way that Serialism did. Having written nothing for six months, he began to systematically adopt Serialism with works like Agon and Canticum Sacrum.
The severe Threni was the first work to make exclusive use of 12-note rows and marked the beginning of Stravinsky's last creative phase, in which the remainder of his output would use serial techniques. The late works, such as The Flood and Abraham and Isaac also betray the influence of the isorhythmic and canonic structures of Renaissance music.
Although creatively young and fresh, Stravinsky was becoming physically frailer, following a stroke in 1956. In 1962, he made his first visit to the Soviet Union and set foot on Russian soil for the first time in 50 years, an emotional homecoming for the old composer.
His last substantial work, Requiem Canticles, was written at the age of 84 and, shortly after a move to New York, Stravinsky died on 6 April 1971. His body was flown to Venice where it was buried a few yards away from the grave of Diaghilev.

Apollon musagète is composed for six string parts: two violins, viola, two cellos and bass. The number of players assigned to each part was not specifically determine, although Stravinsky recommended a complement of about 38 players. Otto Klemperer, in his Berlin days, was known to have blown up the size of the orchestra to relatively elephantine proportions. On this recording, we have chosen to offer the score with a single player taking each part, which emphasizes the transparency of textures and spareness of line and design this most neo-classical of all Stravinsky scores.

Minneapolis, MN (SportsNetwork.com) - New Orleans Pelicans center Anthony Davis was held out of Wednesday night's game against Minnesota because of soreness in his left index finger.
The former No. 1 draft pick dislocated the finger near the end of Tuesday's win over Cleveland.
Pelicans coach Monty Williams said keeping Davis out of the lineup "just makes sense."
"We could've held him out last night, but he was so adamant about playing that I let him go," Williams said, according to the team's website. "Now we have to be his brains and make sure he doesn't hurt his finger more. But he should be ready for our next game."
Davis is averaging 20.4 points, 10.4 rebounds and an NBA-best 3.3 blocks in 37 games this season. He missed seven games in December with a broken left hand.

"From my brief visits there, I am very impressed by their growth and the way they're addressing their growth," said Kay Rentzel, the peach council's managing director.
"They could provide a very valuable role offering domestic local and regionally grown fruit and let consumers know we have domestic peaches for a longer period of time."
Georgia growers view the increasing production favorably.
"Florida has really done a good job at closing that gap when April has traditionally been a peach desert," said Will McGehee, marketing director of the Georgia Peach Council in Byron and sales manager for the Genuine Georgia Group and Pearson Farm in Fort Valley, Ga.
"Sometimes, it's hard to get the engines going in our customers' stores," McGehee said.
"We like it because Florida gets people thinking about peaches before we come in."

I don't know what it is about this year's Arkansas Razorbacks' basketball team, but I just have a really good time watching them on the court. Maybe I was merely needing something entertaining after that abysmal football season, or perhaps it has been so long since the basketball team has given the fans something to cheer about that anything that approaches being good becomes a joy to watch.

Tomorrow evening at 6:30 p.m., the Glen Rose Beavers (12-1) will travel to Little Rock's War Memorial Stadium to take on the Charleston Tigers (14-0) for the Class 3A state championship. This has been a long season for the Beavers and today we are going to look at Glen Rose's road to the state championship. The Beavers ended the 2012 season with a heart-breaking loss to Harding Academy in the state championship game and entered the 2013 season with mixed reviews.
On Monday night, Bismarck High School hosted Glen Rose high school in three games, with the home teams winning each game. The first game of the night was between the junior boys teams with the Junior Lions holding on for a 38-36 win. Bismarck jumped out to an early 14-2 lead, which they grew to a 24-8 lead at the half. The Junior Beavers fought back by outscoring Bismarck 15-5 in the third quarter, but their rally fell just short in the fourth. Jayden Howell led the Junior Lions with 13 points.
More and more it seems that college football gets divided up into different seasons throughout the year. You have the recruiting season, the spring season, the offseason, the nonconference season, the conference season and the bowl season. One aspect that people always seem to leave out is the coaching search season, which always seems to happen right before the bowls get good and going.
For the full column, see Wednesday's (Dec. 18) Malvern Daily Record.
The Glen Rose Beavers' game against the Smackover Buckaroos in the semfinal round of the Class 3A playoffs was played in what many would call ideal football weather. The temperature was low and there was constant precipitation throughout the game. But as it was said by many Glen Rose fans, "Beavers love water." The Beavers (13-1), despite playing away from home (at Sykes Stadium on the campus of Benton Harmony Grove High School) for the second straight game, proved that to be the case as they dominated the Buckaroos (12-2) by the score of 54-24 on Friday night.
Over the summer, the Malvern Little League sent a team to the regionals of the Little League World Series in Waco, Texas. The Malvern All-Stars had a good showing in the event, finishing second, and were even featured on ESPN2. In addition to having a chance to see some of the best teams in the country, the Malvern Little League players and fans got to play on championship-caliber fields, which is something they couldn't say before the trip.
Looking over the list of bowls this season, I just have to shake my head at the vast majority of them. There was a time when the names of the bowl games made sense. The Peach Bowl was held in Atlanta, because the state was known for the fruit. The winning team got a trophy that looked like a bowl full of peaches. Imagine that. Then the sponsorships came in and the Peach Bowl shared its name with its corporate partner before that partner decided the game should be named after the company and the company only.
The Glen Rose Beavers defeated the Smackover Buckaroos 54-24 in the semifinal round of the Class 3A playoffs Friday night. With the win, the Beavers advance to the Class 3A state championship game against Charleston, which will be held at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock next Saturday at 6:30 p.m.
For a full recap of the game, along with pictures, see the Tuesday (December 17) edition of the Malvern Daily Record.
Scoring has been at a premium for the Magnet Cove Panthers this season, but on Tuesday, they scored 33 percent more than their season average in defeating conference foe Abundant Life 40-32 at home. The Panthers led 12-10 after the opening stanza and after a rather low-scoring second quarter, Magnet Cove went into the halftime break with an 18-14 lead. The two teams played to an 8-8 stalemate in the third quarter, leaving the Panthers with a four-point lead at 26-22 heading into the final eight minutes of the game.
The Poyen Lady Indians basketball team lost a lot of their scoring from last year's state tournament team, but to watch them play this year you wouldn't know it. The team has been picking up wins at a regularity that fans in Poyen have gotten used to and a lot of the credit falls to senior point guard Elizabeth Kratz. When the 2013-2014 season started, Kratz was looked upon to be the leader of the team and it was a role that she tackled head-on.

Efforts continue in the race against the spread of citrus greening in Texas.
Lawrence Hawkins, spokesman for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, says numerous people are hard at work to fight the disease.
"Industry, academia and government are all working to identify solutions to citrus pest and disease problems through best growing practices, disease resistant cultivars, and efficacious treatments," he said in an e-mail.
According to Hawkins, no detections of citrus greening have been confirmed in Texas beyond the original 5-mile survey area since the original detection.
Still, there's no time to waste in the battle, and the USDA has several active platforms in place to reach out to the public for help.
The USDA has turned to technology to help fight the disease with the website, www.saveourcitrus.org, as well as communicating with social media.
"We use Facebook, Twitter, blogging, etc., to get our message on how to "Save Our Citrus" to producers, consumers and sellers alike," Hawkins said in an e-mail.
The colorfully designed website has information about infected areas, how to detect the disease, and instructions for preventing its further spread.
Visitors to the site are also prompted with how to report a potential infected tree by submitting a form online, calling the USDA state plant health director's office, or by downloading the Save Our Citrus iPhone application.
The free app was developed by the USDA to make it easier to identify the four leading citrus diseases, including citrus greening, according to the USDA Save Our Citrus app Web page.
Users can report symptoms, upload a photo and receive a response from citrus experts.
The USDA even uploaded an instructional video on YouTube that explains how to use the application to report a citrus greening concern for review.
Hawkins says the application has not only increased the USDA's interaction through social media tools to help promote the right against greening, but it has greatly increased the amount of reports received.
"While the website always had the reporting capability, that function has been dramatically improved and the iPhone application provided an even easier way for a person to send a disease report with an accompanying photo," he said in an e-mail.
Another aspect of the Web page is the "Don't risk citrus. Don't move citrus." video and radio ads. These ads feature a pinball theme to explain that moving citrus can be a deadly game.

Parking isn't always easy and Brussels' streets are labyrinthine. It's nonetheless worth knowing that Cambio (28 rue Fossé aux Loups) offers a car-sharing service for frequent travellers.
Catch taxis at major ranks (around the Bourse and De Broukère). Since the naming of Brussels' tiny streets is sometimes counter-intuitive (one side of the wide space near Avenue Louise is called Boulevard de Waterloo, the other Toison d'Or – Golden Fleece), you may need to help the driver find your destination. Drivers don't expect a tip, but will welcome one.
Brussels is too small for an extensive metro system but its three lines are useful for main stops like Bourse (for the Grand'Place) and Midi (for the Gare du Midi). Metro stations are marked with a white 'M' on a blue background.
Bus route maps are available at stations and people waiting at stops are usually happy to help. If you don't have a travel card, you can pay with cash on boarding. The airport-line bus links Brussels Airport with central Brussels in 30 minutes. Night bus N71 runs until 3am on Friday night.
Walking is often the quickest and most pleasant way to get around. Wear flat heels for the cobbled Grand'Place area.
Rent your car
From Brussels' circular R0 motorway, several roads lead into the petite ceinture circular road around the city centre, home to most of Brussels' attractions. To ease congestion, the speed limit around the Grand Place is limited to 30km/hour. City centre car parks fill early, while street parking is often time-restricted.
Transportation tips
One ticket is valid for multiple journeys across the network (metro, pré-métro and bus) for one hour. Buy a travel card of five or ten journeys or invest in a Day Travelcard. Stamp your ticket in the little orange machines to validate it, with the arrow facing down and towards you, and make sure you know the name of your station in both French and Flemish so you don't miss your stop – the Gare du Midi (French) is Zuidstation in Flemish.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

the US to allow China space in the western Pacific, there are others

As a point of interest, at a conference I recently attended the Aust.
Def. Min. Steve Smith displayed his utter contempt for the Hugh White
position. I was actually rather taken aback by his virtual ridicule of
Hugh, but it does indicate the ministerial thinking on the matter (ha,
just in case the shared facilities agreement with the US wasn't
conclusive enough!!).
As for the Chinese view of Rudd, yeah they like him because of the links
however I don't think there would be any misconceptions in the policy
planning circles after the wikileaks memos released a discussion between
himself and the US ambo where Rudd advocated containing China.

I think there's a split in the academic community actually. There are
definitely those in the Hugh White camp (since his quarterly essay in
2010) that advocate for Chinese integration in such defence groupings,
but I've read recent papers out of Lowy that also call for a new
US-OZ-India defence trilateral etc. Rudd is still the career diplomat
even if he's now our foreign minister. His language is as bureaucratic
as ever and makes for dull Parliament time (except when he is overhead
saying "those Chinese f...ers are trying to rat-f...! us"). Besides
that ONE colourful statement, I think many of the other comments
(especially when he was PM) were more about placating the Australian
community as they were about sending a message to the Chinese. I
remember talking to ZZ about Rudd last year and she had gave me a
great insight into the Chinese thinking... at the time our press was
tearing Rudd apart for potentially undermining our relationship with
China. ZZ said Rudd was liked & respected in China for two reasons; 1)
he spoke Mandarin, but 2) more importantly he is considered 'family'
as his daughter is married to a Chinese man (I think they're currently
living in Beijing).

More of the comments from yesterday.
I hear a lot in academic discussion here that any defence groupings
that involved any of; US, Australia, Japan, India that doesn't
involve China is too provocative and a bad idea. However Kevin Rudd
is really emerging as a strong China hawk over the last few years.
He was a diplomat in Beijing for years and speaks fluent Mandarin.

China turns frosty on US-Australia upgrades
Dec 01, 2011
China's military denounced the United States and Australia yesterday
for upgrading defence ties, warning that such moves could erode
trust and fan cold war-era antagonism.
Defence Ministry spokesman Geng Yansheng made the warning about a
plan unveiled in mid-November by US President Barack Obama and
Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard to form a de facto base in
north Australia for up to 2,500 US Marines.
Geng's comments came on the same day Australian Foreign Minister
Kevin Rudd was reported supporting the formation of a security pact
with India and the US, another step that could fuel China's worries
of being fenced in by wary neighbours.
"Military alliances are a product of history, but we believe any
strengthening and expansion of military alliances is an expression
of the cold war mentality," Geng said at a monthly news conference.
"This is not in keeping with the tide of the era of peace,
development and cooperation, and does not help to enhance mutual
trust and cooperation between countries in the region. [It] could
ultimately harm the common interests of all concerned.
"We hope that the parties ... will do more that is beneficial to the
peace and stability of the Asia-Pacific region, and not the
contrary," he said.
Despite that criticism, Geng said Chinese and US defence officials
would still meet for consultations on December 7, to be jointly
chaired by General Ma Xiaotian , deputy chief of staff of the
People's Liberation Army, and US Defence Undersecretary Michele
Ma will then go to New Delhi for China-India defence and security
consultations on December 9.
Earlier this month, Obama told Asia-Pacific leaders that the US was
"here to stay", announced plans to set up the de facto military base
and chided China for trying to prevent discussion of its South China
Sea territorial disputes at regional forums.
Although falling short of full-throated condemnation of the
US-Australian move, Geng's words were tougher than an earlier
reaction from China's Foreign Ministry, which said Washington and
Canberra should focus on co-operating with Beijing.
Geng said US and Australian plans to advance "integrated air and sea
combat" amounted to "trumpeting confrontation".

If you (or your kids) have a secret love for Cap'n Crunch cereal, then listen up! Kashi has produced a brilliant spin-off of this childhood favorite dubbed Kashi Honey Sunshine. The many companies continually putting a healthy twist on our fattening/ artificial favorites fill me with excitement for what the future holds in terms of food and lifestyles.
To start, the cereal pieces are the same size as Cap'n Crunch. So is the flavor but the Kashi cereal has less of an artificial, sugar loaded mouth feel (probably because Kashi uses half the sugar that Cap'n Crunch does). Each spoonful (or handful) leaves your taste buds delighted from the slightly sweet, crunchy and somewhat airy bite sized pieces, which deliver a pleasant hint of honey. Kashi describes their new invention best, as "Honey-kissed Seven Whole Grain Cereal Pillows."
Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal has excellent nutrition facts. Each ¾ cup contains 100 calories (try making your own 100 calorie packs), 1.5 grams of total fat (2% of the RDA), no saturated fat, no cholesterol, 140 mg of sodium (6% of the RDA), 6 grams of fiber (22% of the RDA), a perfect 6 grams of sugar and 2 grams of protein. The only thing missing is added vitamins and minerals.
The ingredient list is similarly impressive, starting with whole grain yellow corn meal and ending with Luo Han fruit concentrate, mixing a few other wholesome ingredients in between.
I paid $3.79 for a box of Kashi Honey Sunshine, which was more expensive than all of the other Kashi cereal varieties. On the other hand, the cereal is brand new and I expect the price to go down a bit when the hype has died down. In the end, if you have ever tried Cap'n Crunch and "secretly" liked it, you will find that spending about $4 on a 12 ounce box of these crunchy "pillows" is absolutely worth it.
