Joshua Woodrow Sill (1831-1862) - Born 6 Dec 1831, Chillicothe, Ohio. Died 31 Dec 1862, Battle of Stones River, outside of Murfreesboro, Tennesse.
West Point
He was appointed to the United States Military Academy, West Point in 1849 and graduated 3rd of 52 in the Class of 1853.
Early Military Career
Upon graduation, he was commissioned a 2nd Lt. in ordnance and assigned to the Watervliet Arsenal, West Troy, New York. He was recalled to West Point, 23 Sep 1854, as assistant professor of geography, history, and ethics. After two years there, he was assigned to the Pittsburgh Arsenal, where he was occupied with the testing of ordnance equipment
In May 1858, Sill was sent to Fort Vancouver, Washington Territory, to manage the building of Vancouver Arsenal. Difficulties with the British Government prevented the construction of this arsenal and he was reassigned to Watervliet Arsenal. A few months at this facility, he was ordered to Fort Leavenworth. He resigned his commission 25 Jan 1861 and accepted the professorship of mathematics and civil engineering in the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute.
U.S. Civil War
At the beginning of the U.S. Civil War he was appointed Assistant Adjutant General of the State of Ohio. In Aug 1861 he was commissioned Colonel of the 33rd Ohio Volunteers and accompanied General Nelson in the Eastern Kentucky expedition. His regiment was then assigned to General Ormsby M. Mitchel's Division, and Sill was placed in command of a Brigade and was promoted to the rank of Brig. Gen. This promotion was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on July 29, 1862. Shortly thereafter, he was made commanding general of a division.
He was given command of a brigade in General Philip H. Sheridan's Division, and took part in the Battle of Stones River, the bloodiest battle of the U.S. Civil War. On 31 Dec 1862, in the second day of this battle, General Sill was killed by rifle fire while personally leading his men forward. His body was buried by Confederate troops in a battlefield cemetery near the scene of his death and later removed to the Grandview Cemetery in Chillicothe, Ohio.

Boys Soccer: St Charles East crushes Larkin to claim sectional
Larkin High School's Matthias Warren on the left, and St. Charles East Zach Manibog go up for a header on Friday, October 26, 2012 at York High School in Elmhurst IL. | Terence Guider-Shaw~For Sun-Times MediaUpdated: October 26, 2012 9:33PM
St. Charles East dominated Larkin en route to an 8-1 victory in Friday's York Sectional final of the Class 3A playoffs.
After claiming a first-round regional win, Larkin players were quoted as saying they wanted a rematch with the Saints in the sectional final. The Saints (20-2-1), who beat Larkin in conference play during the regular season, broke loose for six goals in the second half to put the game away.
St. Charles East, on a 16-match unbeaten (15-0-1) streak, advances to Tuesday's (7 p.m.) Barrington Supersectional against Warren, which defeated Barrington 2-1 in another sectional final.
St. Charles East scoring leader T.C. Hull (31 goals this season) put on a show against Larkin recording his second hat trick of the year. With 20:56 elapsed, a ball ricocheted in front of Hull for a 19-yard blast from right of center for his first goal. With 1:47 left until intermission, a collision between Larkin's Michael Gomez and East's Kevin Kurtz earned both players yellow cards. Hull then bent a 15-yard direct free kick around the Royals' defensive wall for another score. Hull then used an Andrew Shone set-up for a 12-yard goal from the left wing 5:25 minutes into the second half.
"We were all pumped up for this one and once we got that first goal, that proved to be a huge boost," Hull said.
Larkin almost scored with 30:10 remaining in the game, but Tito Velazquez's header sailed over the goal. Although Royals keeper Aldair Dominguez managed two big saves on Hull blasts, the Saints ultimately iced the game with a three-goal flurry in an 11-minute span.
Elliot Welter's assist led to a Shone header goal and reserve Daniel DiLeonardi provided St. Charles East's second hat trick of the day. DiLeonardi tallied the first two goals of his hat trick extending the Saints' lead to 6-0 before Larkin was awarded a penalty kick opportunity, which Erik Rodriguez converted with 7:01 to make the score 6-1.
Zach Manibog restored the Saints' six-goal lead at 7-1 lead 34 seconds later with a goal, and DiLeonardi netted his third goal with 5:10 left to invoke the IHSA seven-goal mercy rule.
"That was as good a performance as we've had all year. I thought we played absolutely fantastic," St. Charles East coach Paul Jennison said. "They're not eight goals worse than us, but an indication of how these boys are on a roll is that an 8-1 sectional final doesn't happen often."
Larkin, which ended the season 15-6-4, was missing two prominent starters in Tony Hernandez and Junior Esclante, and had several others hobbling.
"(St. Charles East) is probably the best team we've played all year," Larkin coach Ken Hall said. "We've played some quality teams like Morton and others in the Pepsi Showdown, but I also know if this was just a regular-season match, we had three guys out there who would not have been playing. I'm not taking anything away from them nor do I want to make excuses, but I just wish we had our true lineup."

Atlas on track after record quarter
PUBLISHED: 04 Apr 2011 09:41:00 | UPDATED: 05 Apr 2011 04:00:24PRINT EDITION: 04 Apr 2011
Atlas Iron is on track to export 1.5 million tonnes of ore in the June 2011 quarter, after the company shipped a record 1.39 million tonnes in the March quarter.
Atlas says the result has delivered the company $240 million cash on hand, reflecting strong sales volumes, higher iron ore prices and reduced operating costs relative to the first half of 2010-11.
Atlas says it exported a record 547,404 tonnes of direct shipping ore in the month of March.
"This strong result, which came despite terrible weather during the quarter, highlights the underlying strength of the Atlas business," managing director David Flanagan said in a statement on Monday.
"It also represents the ongoing efforts of our staff and contractors across our operations, who have worked hard to set a fresh record."
The company expects cash costs to remain at $40 to $43 per tonne for the rest of the financial year.

Quality assurance specialists work in a variety of fields, including manufacturing (in which this position mostly entails physical labor) and firms that provide a service, such as consulting (where QA specialists develop strategies and techniques to ensure that all clients receive a similar high level of quality and helpfulness). Regardless of the industry in which they work, QA specialists have a keen eye for detail and a strong understanding of their company's manufacturing or service processes.

Though it's uncommon, some Quality Assurance Specialists move into roles as Quality Assurance Directors, where pay is an average $104K per year. The most common promotion for Quality Assurance Specialists is Quality Assurance Manager, a position that typically pays $68K annually. Another standard transition for Quality Assurance Specialists seeking advancement is to assume a Quality Assurance Auditor role, where pay is often $46K.
Quality Assurance Specialists seem to exploit a large range of skills on the job. Most notably, skills in Project Management, Regulatory Compliance, Auditing, and Procedures are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts between 6 percent and 14 percent. At the other end of the pay range are skills like Microsoft Word, Microsoft Office, and Microsoft Excel. Most people who know Quality Assurance / Quality Control also know Regulatory Compliance, Microsoft Office, and Data Analysis.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience does not seem to be a strong driver of pay increase in this role. Survey participants with less than five years' experience pocket $43K on average, but those with five to 10 years of experience enjoy a much bigger median of $54K. For Quality Assurance Specialists, 10 to 20 years of experience on the job amounts to an average salary of $59K. Quality Assurance Specialists with more than 20 years of experience report incomes that are only modestly higher; the median for these old hands hovers around $63K.
For those looking to make money, Quality Assurance Specialists in Boston enjoy an exceptional pay rate, 26 percent above the national average. Quality Assurance Specialists will also find cushy salaries in Seattle (+20 percent), Minneapolis (+20 percent), Los Angeles (+18 percent), and New York (+12 percent).

- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Culture & Values
- Career Opportunities
I worked at Capgemini full-time (more than 5 years)
Pros- Smart, technically savvy people to work with
- Good On-Boarding start up Base Salary – be sure to negotiate a good entry salary or regret it later.
- Good BonusConsAbsolutely no leadership/project management skills exhibited from Senior Management. (They're too busy chasing down new accounts to line their own pockets.)
- Too much of a 'gap' between the Consultants and upper management. Upper Management is totally impotent and disconnected. Management is often unresponsive to employee's emails.
- Hosting Adjoined/Kanbay Legacy Senior Managers/VPs are self-centered and do NOT care about the lower-level Consultants. All they want to do is come in, chase new accounts, collect their $150-$250k salaries, and go home.
- No training $$s granted whatsoever for skill development.
- No communication between upper management to consultants regarding:
Career growth, project on and off-boarding, performance reviews. Everything is done in a 'backroom' , last minute type of way. You're assigned a People Manager who usually has no idea what you do, but is expected to make performance rating decisions about you.
- Total lack of cooperation regarding process and procedural guidelines. Management is not motivated to enforce internal P&Ps and does not admonish those who resist attempts at P&P implementation. Need to implement systems with built-in business rules. Not the home-grown ones currently in use.
- MVP performance tool is totally inadequate. HR recently unveiled the 'new and improved' MVP performance tool which basically places 'Sales' as the number one indicator of an employee's performance. What about employees that have absolutely no connection to sales? Well, they are basically screwed. This model only rewards the Adjoined/Kanbay Legacy Senior Management/VPs and punishes the newer employees at lower levels. I have not had an increase in base pay because of the 'economy' – while the Hosting group continues to bring in millions of dollars in new engagements. The MVP tool is designed to harass the employees and ensure that they fail the litmus test it has created. That is why more than 2/3s of the company's employees receive overall '3' ratings on their reviews which, as of late, equals no increase in pay.
- A clique mentality exists among the Adjoined/Kanbay Legacy folks. They take care of their own and neglect the newer folks. Must be constantly connected and kissing a#$ to get ahead.Advice to ManagementAdviceFix the points listed above (and)
Fire the Adjoined/Kanbay Legacy VPs and the President (SP) in Phoenix, and replace them with competent people who know how to manage people and projects.
Do away with MVP and give EVERYONE who hasn't had a raise in 3-4 yrs. a 'catch-up' 7-9% merit increase in pay immediately or continue to see your high attrition rate.Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookDisapproves of CEO -

Even that may not be enough. Sabatella is one of South Florida's busiest musicians these days, working double duty as bassist in Diane Ward's band while he gets his own group off the ground. Add in the 35 hours per week he puts in at the obligatory day job, and Sabatella faces tough choices about how to parcel out his time. "Pretty much every night I'll come home and either make a quick dinner or grab a bite somewhere and then go to rehearsal or a show or a meeting or go make flyers or do something," he says. "But there's not enough time for everything, so I tend to overlook sleep as the one thing that I don't fit in."
On the surface, the back-breaking schedule doesn't make sense: The gig with Ward would be enough for most musicians. Anyone who's heard Ward's band knows she's destined for greatness; Sabatella's fluid bass playing and smooth vocal harmonies play an important role in that.
But Sabatella isn't just any musician. Having established his rep as co-founder, bassist, and part-time frontman of Broken Spectacles (he garnered a South Florida Rock Award as best bassist), Sabatella has emerged as one of the scene's most promising talents -- a skilled musician (he also plays guitar and drums) with a fistful of songs good enough to nab him a spot in the recent ASCAP showcase in Miami Beach. And besides, Sabatella's latest project isn't just any band.
The story begins early last year, as Broken Spectacles was on its last legs after a six-year roller-coaster ride through the South Florida music world. "When we started the band it was funny," recalls Sabatella. "We were 18, 19, thinking, yeah, we're gonna be on MTV by the time we're 20, 21."
The Broken Spectacles were brilliant and often challenging. And yet, even though the Specs were highly acclaimed, they never quite found their audience. "The big thing is, there were three songwriters and three singers," states Sabatella, referring to fellow bandmates Ed Hale and Dave Rubenstein, both of whom played guitar and also handled lead vocals on selected songs. "It was very much like three solo projects going on. That was the fundamental problem, I guess. We spent all the years telling people, 'Don't worry, you'll catch on, you'll like it,' because we liked it."
But local audiences never seemed to grasp the concept of a band with three strong personalities, and by the end of 1993 Sabatella had begun performing solo acoustic shows. "I loved the band," he relates, "but it just seemed a little bit easier to communicate when I was doing my own material."
Sabatella's new group was formed piecemeal, almost haphazardly, and members only recently settled on a name: Sabatella. "We spent some time talking about names, and those were actually some very funny sessions," says the band's namesake. "It was actually someone else who said, 'How about just Sabatella?' And pretty much everyone else instantly said, 'Yeah, I could live with that.'"
Matt Sabatella was first joined by keyboardist Lee Frank, known locally for having collaborated with guitarist extraordinaire Joel Schantz on the 1993 Bad Karma release My Only Problem. Frank and Sabatella played as a duo for several months and met up with singer-songwriter Brian Franklin. Franklin, a former member of the boogie-grunge band Mr. Tasty and the Bread Healers who had been cultivating a solo career, joined the band as lead guitarist in May.
The three continued with acoustic performances; when an electric lineup was needed, Sabatella switched to bass and Ari Schantz (Joel's brother) helped out on drums. The final pieces of Sabatella fell into place last fall, when Franklin recruited bassist David Chaskes, who brought along his long-time friend, drummer Jordan Steele Lash.
"We came together to support Matt," jokes Chaskes. "It kind of happened by accident," adds Frank. Sabatella has come to realize that the full-band backing enhances the power of his songs. "When I started playing the solo shows, I loved the freedom," he says. "I was so psyched to be up there without a band. It just felt so good to be there by myself."
Then Sabatella saw a videotape of one of his shows. "I'm watching it and I'm like, 'Oh, is that all it is? It's just a guitar?' Because I guess I'm up there singing and playing, and I'm hearing the whole band in my head, and so I'm thinking that a whole lot more music is happening than actually is."
Despite the band's relative newness to the scene, Sabatella has developed a strong following based on performances that leave listeners groping for adjectives to describe what they've just heard. In terms of material, the band is all over the musical map: Pensive acoustic-centered ballads like "Memory Coast" and "Butterfly" mix with grittier numbers such as the bluesy "Rain on You," which is punctuated by a vicious, extended solo by Franklin. "Capture" springs from the same well as "Rain," but takes on a slightly jazzier feel thanks to Frank's smooth organ work. The anthemic "Uniform," which has emerged as a crowd favorite, is a straight-ahead rocker.

3rd Annual Chuckwagon Dinner At MacGregor Ranch-Experience Ranch Life First Hand
Help Preserve Western Heritage & Youth Education Programs
Don't miss your chance to stand in the middle of living history where you can truly understand what it used to be like in the good ole days at the Third Annual Chuckwagon Dinner Fundraiser at MacGregor Ranch.
With roots to the 1870s, MacGregor Ranch remains a showplace of early life among settlers and homesteaders in the early Colorado Territory. Founded in 1873 by Alexander and Clara MacGregor, and left in trust by their granddaughter Muriel MacGregor, the Ranch today serves as a working cattle ranch and a youth education center in the beautiful Black Canyon Creek area of Estes Park.
At the event, you'll enjoy live entertainment from nationally known cowboy yodeler and poet Gary McMahan, Little Kenny and the Neargrass Junction band combines bits of folk, bluegrass, classical, country and jazz to created the sound now known as 'Neargrass.' You'll also once again have the pleasure of listening to local favorites, Cowboy Brad Fitch and Western guitarist Ron Ball.
There are many fun events planned for the kids. They will have fun making huge bubbles, building a log cabin, egg races and an old fashioned horse race with wooden stick horses.
The whole family can take a ride around the Ranch in an old Model T or a vintage convertible. There will be the ever popular wagon rides through the meadow, tours of the beautiful Museum, barn tours and the opportunity to purchase wonderful souvenirs at Maude's Mercantile.
See just how life used to be at MacGregor Ranch and watch an old time blacksmith in action and learn how a horse gets its shoes.
For more fun, take part in a live auction and bid on silent auction items.
Your delicious cowboy dinner will be served at 5:30 which includes a steak sandwich, corn on the cob, barbecued beans, watermelon and a very special chocolate cake baked from a recipe of Ruth McGraw from McGraw Ranch.
All proceeds raised at the Chuckwagon Dinner will go towards preserving our wonderful Western heritage and funding educational programs for youth, as over 3,000 children visit the Ranch annually and take away something they could not learn anywhere else.
At MacGregor Ranch, they believe that each student visiting the Ranch should have a meaningful and quality learning experience. MacGregor Ranch provides its facilities for youth and school groups year round – working in partnership with teachers and leaders developing a unique curriculum for students. A primary goal for museum education is to stimulate further learning and enrichment experiences for its visitors. They encourage their student visitors to become "history keepers" who appreciate and study history and who work to preserve the past for future generations.
The Ranch is operated by the Muriel L. MacGregor Charitable Trust, a 501 (c) 3 private operating foundation.
Tickets for the Chuckwagon Dinner are available at the Visitor's Bureau, Macdonald Book Shop and the Ranch office; you can call 970-586-3749 for directions or more information.

Big ideas start here
CSIRO aims to establish and build relationships with members of the community. We welcome people of all ages to come and explore our facilities, holiday programs and public events.

CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, is Australia's national science agency and one of the largest and most diverse research agencies in the world.
Large-scale, long-term, multidisciplinary science to address Australia's major national challenges and opportunities.
CSIRO manages national facilities and collections that are opened to researchers around Australia and overseas.
The Acacia Tree of Trees provides a unique, interactive display of Australia's floral emblem, the Wattle, to show how each species of Acacia is related to other wattles.
Ongoing research into the taxonomy of Acacias aims to understand the diverse evolutionary biology behind one of the world's most abundant tree species.
Acacias are found throughout Australia with over 1000 known species.
Researchers at the Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research (CANBR)* are using the latest in DNA research and modern taxonomic tools to uncover the origins of Acacias.
Acacias have an enormous diversity of floral, leaf and plant forms, and this diversity has been difficult to classify.
The DNA work helps clarify which leaf characteristics are important to the taxonomy.
The work traces biogeographic trends within the genus as some closely related species may grow in one part of the country while their close relatives are in another part of the continent.
This poses challenging questions as to how the different Acacia species have evolved to occupy specific niches across the continents.
As part of the Australian National Botanic Garden's 40th anniversary celebrations, the CANBR team, led by Dr Joe Miller, has created an amazing and unique display of Acacias in the form of a 'phylogenetic' tree.
In this format, individual species are grouped at the end of 'branched' pine-bark pathways to denote how closely related they are to one another.
The branching out of the 'tree' indicates splits in evolution of Acacias.
A distinct split occurred early in the evolution of the species which now divides them into phyllodinous (phyllodes are broad flat 'leaves') species versus binpinnate ('feathery-leaved') types, many of the latter being common to the Australian Capital Territory.
While the Acacia research is ongoing, the Acacia Tree of Trees Display will be extended into an interactive page on the Atlas Of Living Australia (ALA) site, allowing users to 'virtually' walk through the branched pathways of the tree.

Airbus UK
Airbus UK uses Flowmaster, 1D fluid system, to provide fast and accurate results that help them to focus on critical rig testing before flight testing commences.
"Flowmaster is a design tool used by our engineers on a daily basis to investigate the fluid mechanics of the fuel system. It helps us understand how changes to the fuel system design will affect performance, and the simulation results are frequently used in conjunction with test results in certification reports for the fuel system."
Ellis Griffiths, Head of Fuel Systems, Fluids Mechanical, Airbus UK
The Problem
Optimization of Fuel System in accordance with strict aviation requirements Airbus needed to design a fuel system that not only kept a constant supply of fuel to their Rolls Royce Trent R553s turbo fans, but also, amongst other things, ensured fuel optimization and managed the aircraft's center of gravity. This had to be done whilst ensuring compliance with strict aviation design requirements.
The Solution
Flowmaster has enabled Airbus UK to exceed its design requirements and meet critical project milestones Flowmaster software enabled Airbus to ensure that systems performed as intended and helped them to evaluate how design changes impacted on other areas of the system. Airbus relies on Flowmaster to provide fast and accurate results that help them to focus on critical rig testing before flight testing commences.
The Results
Confidence in Flowmaster performance has been verified by a comparison of model, rig and aircraft tests As well as the A340-500, Airbus UK has applied its extensive expertise to optimize its fuel system design processes, which is also proving invaluable on current programs such as the A380, A400m and A350. Airbus has reduced the risks associated with system development, and has provided an environment which allows rapid and early assessment of fluid mechanical performance.
Airbus UK
Airbus is the world's leading aircraft manufacturer whose customer focus, commercial know-how, technological leadership and manufacturing efficiency have propelled it to the forefront of the industry.
Airbus' modern and comprehensive product line comprises highly successful families of aircraft ranging from 107 to 525 seats: the single-aisle A320 Family, the wide-body long-range A330/A340 and the all-new next generation A350 XWB Family, and the ultra long-range, double-decker A380 Family. The company also continues to broaden its scope and product range by applying its expertise to the military market. It is as well extending its portfolio of freighter aircraft that will set new standards in the general and express freight market sectors.
Across all its fly-by-wire aircraft families Airbus' unique approach ensures that aircraft share the highest possible degree of commonality in airframes, on-board systems, cockpits and handling characteristics, which reduces significantly operating costs for airlines. http://www.airbus.com

Sociology Department SeminarDate: 6 November 2007 Time: 16.15-18.00 Venue: Management School Lecture Theatre 6 The Wedge and the Knot: Hammering and Stitching the Face of Nature Tim Ingold (Department of Anthropology, Aberdeen University) Outlining his idea of the 'struggle for existence', in The Origin of Species, Charles Darwin compared the face of Nature at one moment to a surface riven by innumerable wedges, and at another moment to an entangled bank. In subsequent ecological thinking the former image has tended to prevail, along with the idea that organisms are externally bounded, solid entities that compete for limited space along the lines of their adjacency. In this paper I explore the implications of an alternative viewpoint, suggested by the image of entanglement. Here the organism is imagined not as a wedge-like block in a carpentered world, but rather as a line - or rather a knotted bundle of lines - in a world that is woven. In such a world, how should we conceive of 'the environment'? Literally, an environment is that which surrounds; however you cannot surround a knot without enclosing it, which would immediately transform it into a bounded form. What we have been accustomed to calling 'the environment' might, I suggest, be better envisaged as a zone of interpenetration or entanglement. It is within such a tangle of interlaced trails, continually ravelling here and unravelling there, that organisms - both human and non-human - grow or 'issue forth' along the lines of their relationships. This tangle is the surface texture of the world. It has no insides or outsides, only openings and 'ways through'. Thus an ecology of life must be fashioned in the stitching of lines, not in the hammering of blocks. All graduate students, members of staff and visiting researchers are cordially invited to attend this Departmental seminar, to be held at 4.15pm. The talk will be followed by drinks and dinner with the speaker - all are welcome to join but please notify the organisers in advance.

Why Garza could finish '13 with Cubs
February, 12, 2013
By Jason A. Churchill | ESPN Insider
Matt Garza was one of the more oft-mentioned names on the trade block last season until a stress reaction in his elbow ended his year after just 18 starts. It's been assumed, to an extent, that once Garza shows the league he's healthy again -- likely 2-3 months into 2013 -- he'll again hit the trade block. Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun-Times writes why that may not be the case.

Jeanne Riedel began writing for fun by collaborating on a book with a friend. Even though the book was only for fun, it inspired Riedel to start writing her own.
Nearly three decades years later, the 58-year-old Hays native is having her first book published through Strategic Book Publishing and Righs Co.
"Mistaken Identity" is a thriller based in a fictitious small Kansas town.
"I would just say it is a combination of the towns around here, basically a small town," Riedel said. "Not real big or anything, but your basic small town: Hays, Victoria, Ellis that type of thing."
The story follows a character named Emily, who is meeting her best friend Liz to remodel a house. On her arrival, Emily finds Liz's body and local police believe she committed suicide.
The thriller follows Emily's journey to find answers about Liz's death.
The 204-page book underwent three rewrites before Riedel felt it was ready to be published.
"Over the years, I think I improved it and developed it, and felt like it was about ready to be published," Riedel said.
"Mistaken Identity" is her first completed book, but Riedel said there will be a series.
"I'm working on the second one, I have ideas for the third one," Riedel said. "I am not sure how many I will be doing."
Riedel also said that in addition to writing the book, the publishing process left her surprised.
"The proofing of it ... I had several people read it and help me edit it and everything," Riedel said. "I was surprised at how evolved it was with getting it published and getting the text approved and reading through it, checking for errors."
The book is available online at http://sbpra.com/JeanneRiedel, barnesandnoble.com and amazon.com for $16.97.
Riedel also said the book will be available for purchase at Hastings, 3300 Vine Street.
"I'm excited about having my first book out and hoping it's a big success," she said. "I've had people read it and tell me they've enjoyed it, so that always makes me feel really good."
Riedel shared some advice.
"I would just like to encourage anyone who has a dream or idea to do it," she said. "It's never too late."

(JTA) — Pro-Israel groups suspended their high-profile lobbying effort for a strike on Syria now that the United States and Russia have struck a deal to strip the Assad regime of its chemical weapons.
A spokesman for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which organized a Capitol Hill blitz last week aimed at persuading Congress to back a strike, confirmed Monday that lobbying has been suspended for now.
The American Jewish Committee and the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, which also had been involved in the lobbying, said they would suspend lobbying, too.
"We sent many messages over the last week and a half; we are not formulating new letters to the Hill," Jason Isaacson, the AJC's director of international affairs, told JTA. "Our message is out there should it be required."
Jewish groups had hesitated at first to sign on to the lobbying effort, fearful that their support would be construed as a pro-Israel initiative. But they dove in after President Obama called for a strike last month and senior administration officials solicited their help in persuading Congress to sign off on the military action.
AIPAC sent 250 of its members for personal meetings with Capitol Hill lawmakers, a show of strength the lobby reserves for major initiatives. The group kept up its effort even after Obama called last week for Congress to delay a vote while he explored the Russian proposal for international monitors to take over and destroy Syria's arsenal of chemical weapons.
The AJC in a letter Sept. 12 to Congress members said the threat of credible military action must be maintained even as the United States looked at the Russian plan. Leading pro-Israel figures echoed the view.
"Every day that goes by without congressional authorization, it undermines the vitality of the threat," Abraham Foxman, the Anti-Defamation League's national director, said in an interview Friday.
By Monday, however, the groups had changed their tune, suspended their lobbying and endorsed the putative deal brokered in Geneva over the weekend by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and his Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov.

"Leah, it's okay now. I'm gonna get you out of here. I won't let that damn savage touch you anymore." Chance vowed coldly. Leah saw her brothers features tense and the tendons in his hands flex.
"No!" she exclaimed as she jerked from Chase's arms and jumped in between Chance's gun and her man. She kept Chase's shirt wrapped tightly around herself in an effor to hide her ruined chemise from her brother. Chance instantly lifted the gun, taking the sights off his little sister.
"Foolish woman!" Chase growled as he turned and stepped in front of Leah.
"What was I supposed to do? Let him kill you?!" Leah demanded, feeling her bottom lip trembling. There had been entirely too much stress in the last twenty minutes of her life and she could feel herself completely breaking down.
"Yes You are never to come between me and a loaded gun. Is that clear?" Chase ground out, never taking his eyes off of Chance. Chance seemed a formidable man. He looked to be around twenty-six years of age, the same as Chase. He was tall, broad, muscled and clearly used to dealing with danger as his face showed no fear, only confusion.
"Leah, come away from that animal. It's time to go home." Chance stated.
"No." Leah replied with a sniff. "His name is Chase and I won't leave him."
"What are you saying?! This, man, kidnapped you!"
"No he didn't!" Leah argued but as usual her brother wouldn't really listen. As usual with the men in her family he thought he could just shut her up by talking over her.
"Do you know what this place is? This is an outlaw camp! There are only bad men here, Leah, no good ones. Look at you! Did this savage try to force you?!" Chance demanded as he once again trained his gun on Chase's chest. Leah jumped in front of Chase again and heard him grumble but she didn't care.
"You're wrong, Chance! You and father are always wrong about everything! No Chase did not force me to do anything! He saved me!" Leah exclaimed as she pointed at Petey's dead body bobbing with the current in the water. Chance followed her gaze and his eyes narrowed as he looked back at Leah.
"Leah, I'm only gonna tell you one more time to step away from that animal and come on home with me." he said coldly. "If you won't listen I'll just have to force you to do as I want."
"You will try." Chase growled.
"I'll come home when I'm ready to." Leah added, her stubborn streak shining through as she stuck up her chin. "And I'll bring Chase with me."
"You mean you've been here by choice?!" Chance demanded incredulously.
"Nearly the entire time, yes." Leah replied, squaring her shoulders.
"You spoiled little bitch!" Chance exclaimed with a mixture of outrage and shock. "Do you have any idea what this has done to mother and father? What it's done to me? We thought you were dead and you've been shacked up at some outlaw camp and rutting with all the men here?!" Leah felt the pain from her brothers insult deep inside her heart. She was rendered completely speechless and barely noticed when Chase stepped in front of her, though she did notice that he was vibrating with rage.
"You will not call my woman a bitch unless you want to lose your tongue. And she has not rutted with anyone. She is mine and I have protected her."
"Not good enough apparently." Chance countered, sparing a glance at Petey's dead body. "And I'd rather she rut with that man than with a man that's barely more than an animal. The only good savage is a dead savage." Leah knew it was her brothers voice but those were their fathers words, drilled into her brothers head for his entire life.

I'd never seen this Crumb painting before. I entertained the notion that it might be a fraud for a moment, but I think the telltale signs are the building facades and cars, which are classic "Harlem"-era Crumb. Available on eBay for a mere $100K.
Via the indispensible Grottu Orloff's Pad (literally my favorite blog in the world).
Pioneering underground cartoonist Joyce Farmer will be making her first west coast appearance in support of her new graphic novel, SPECIAL EXITS, this Saturday in her hometown of Laguna Beach, CA at Latitude 33 Bookstore at 5PM. SPECIAL EXITS is a remarkable book, one that none other than R. Crumb calls "One of the best long-narrative comics I've ever read, right up there with Gen of Hiroshima and Maus. It had a powerful effect on me... towards the end I actually found myself moved to tears." The book has been garnering a slew of praise this week, including this write-up in last Sunday's LA Times, and this heartfelt review from NPR's Glen Weldon. Latitude 33 Books is at 311 Ocean Ave., Laguna Beach, CA 92651.
Tom Spurgeon at the Comics Reporter has the scoop: Fantagraphics will begin publishing Crockett Johnson's BARNABY in April 2012, almost 70 years to the day that the strip premiered in the leftist newspaper PM. Yours truly will edit the series, in close coordination with Philip Nel, whose biography of Johnson, The Purple Crayon And A Hole To Dig: The Lives Of Crockett Johnson And Ruth Krauss, will be published by the University Press Of Mississippi the same month. The series will be designed by none other than massive Barnaby fan and master cartoonist Daniel Clowes. Nel will provide essays for each volume, and each volume will feature an introduction from a rotating cast of Barnaby superfans. This is a dream come true for us at Fantagraphics; Barnaby has literally been at the top of our wish list (or mine, personally, at least) for over a decade. The series will collect the strip's original run of dailies (, from April 1942 through February 1952, including the Ted Ferro and Jack Morley run from January 1946 to September 1947, for which Johnson consulted on before coming back to the strip for good until it's end in 1952. To learn more about Johnson and Barnaby, check out Philip Nel's fantastic Crockett Johnson site here. Nel also has a wonderful blog where he routinely features Johnson and Barnaby; he posted his own excited announcement about the series here. What can I say? We are all EXCITED, I tell you! UPDATE: I should mention that we are, as of now, looking for the best possible reproductions of the first two years of Barnaby, specifically April 1942 thru December 1943. If you are a collector with high quality tearsheets from this period (or later) and would like to be involved with Barnaby's production, drop me a line at reynolds [at] fantagraphics [dot] com.
GROUPON Seattle is offering a sweet deal on Fantagraphics Books TODAY ONLY, so get 'em while they're hot. The Groupons are redeemable at our brick and mortar store in Seattle or online at fantagraphics.com, so you don't need to be local to enjoy the deal!
We paid tribute to the sudden death of our friend and Sub Pop executive Andy Kotowicz in October, and those of you who live in Seattle know how much Andy's story has reverberated throughout the community. This Saturday night, the Showbox at the Market is hosting an all-star benefit show that reflects how much Andy meant to the community. In addition to appearances by legendary SubPop mainstays Mudhoney (featuring Rock God and former longtime Fanta employee Mark Arm) and recent signees Shabazz Palaces, many acts that Kotowicz was instrumental in signing are stepping up, including Pissed Jeans, Wolf Eyes, Michael Yonkers, A-Frames/AFCGT, Fruit Bats, and Vetiver. At $20 (with all proceeds to benefit the Andy Kotowicz Family Foundation), you can't ask for a better deal for a better cause. Check it out.
Not comics, but a lot of us Seattlites will miss him greatly. Photo from the Fantagraphics Warehouse we just moved out of, located a few blocks south of Safeco Field. |

JAKKS Pacific® Reports Third Quarter Results For 2012
Mr. Berman added, "We are in the midst of our Fall Toy Fair meetings with retailers, licensors and other industry partners and are excited by the enthusiastic response to our 2013 product line, including our new DreamPlay Toys products. We believe that our DreamPlay technology positions JAKKS to be a leader in interactivity and augmented reality play for children and will put JAKKS in the forefront of new trends with smart phones and other devices being used more and more each day by children of all ages for their gaming enjoyment and experiences. Looking ahead to 2013, we are optimistic about future opportunities including the launch of DreamPlay products and the solid performance of our core business lines, which spans a wide spectrum that includes action figures, dolls, dress-up and role play; Halloween costumes from Disguise, kids furniture and seasonal products from Kids Only; infant/pre-school products from Tollytots; ride-on vehicles and wagons from Moose Mountain, and outdoor and junior sports products and impulse toys from Maui Toys."
As of September 30, 2012, the Company's working capital was $257.5 million, including cash and equivalents and marketable securities of $141.0 million, compared to working capital of $401.4 million including cash and equivalents and marketable securities of $232.5 million as of September 30, 2011.
2012 Guidance & Dividend
As previously announced, the Company anticipates net sales for the full year of approximately $690 million to $700 million, with revised non-GAAP earnings per share in the range of approximately $0.68 to $0.74, excluding non-recurring legal and financial advisory charges of $0.19 per share. In addition, if the Company does not achieve sufficient U.S. taxable income - which is expected to be sufficient at non-GAAP earnings of approximately $0.74 per share - the Company will be required to take a one-time non-cash charge of $82 million, or $3.45 per share, for the full impairment of its domestic deferred tax assets. The revised guidance represents a reduction from the Company's previously anticipated full year net sales of approximately $720 million to $728 million and diluted earnings per share in the range of approximately $1.04 to $1.08, excluding the financial and legal advisory fees. The Company's guidance with respect to diluted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure, due to the exclusion of such one-time charges. On a GAAP basis, the Company anticipates diluted earnings/loss per share for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2012 to be in the range of a loss of $2.77 (taking into account such non-recurring charges) to earnings of $0.74.

Hemoglobin Functioning
Name: Denise Status: Other Grade: Other Location: IN Country: United States Date: December 2006
How does hemoglobin carry oxygen to cells?
Hemoglobin is a metalloprotein (a protein that contains a metal) which is very important in oxygen transport. Hemoglobin has four parts (subunits) to it, each with an iron atom bound. Each iron atom can be oxidized by binding a molecule of oxygen, and each time this happens the protein changes shape so that it can bind more oxygen molecules more effectively, this is known as cooperativity.
If the hemoglobin is an environment that is low in oxygen it won't bind much oxygen, but as a result of cooperativity if the hemoglobin is around a lot of oxygen it will bind the oxygen very well. This way hemoglobin is used by the body to take oxygen from the lungs (where there is a lot of it) to places like our muscles (which are low in oxygen).

Each hemoglobin molecule contains four iron atoms each of which can reversibly bind an Oxygen molecule.
Ron Baker, Ph.D
Hi Denise
Here's the basics of how our red blood cells function in taking oxygen from our lungs to our functioning tissues.
To start, it is important for the cells in our body to have a constant supply of oxygen. These cells need oxygen to make energy in the form of ATP. The cells make this energy mainly by breaking down sugars (glucose is the sugar most preferred by our cells) and extracting the energy from it. This usable energy is stored within the chemical bonds of a molecule called ATP. Without oxygen our cells can make only a fraction of the ATP that we need. Without ATP our cells cannot carry out their functions and cannot survive, they quickly become damaged and die. If this happens, WE become tired, sick and aren't able to survive. So we really need a good way to assure that the tissues in our body get the oxygen that it needs!
More about ATP and it's importance later.
So now we know how important oxygen is to our bodies - but there is one problem - oxygen does not dissolve in our blood very well. This is where hemoglobin comes in.
Red Blood cells (also known as erythrocytes) serve many functions in our body. One of the main jobs of the erythrocyte is to carry oxygen to our working tissues. Erythrocytes are the red blood cells that are dissolved in our blood.
Erythrocytes contain a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin contains four "pockets" if you can use your imagination. In the middle of each pocket is a molecule of iron. It is this iron that is responsible for the oxygen carrying capabilities of hemoglobin and our red blood cells.
In our lungs, the concentration of oxygen is high. Oxygen enters the red blood cells and binds to the iron within the hemoglobin molecules. It is the binding of oxygen to the iron inside hemoglobin that enables our blood to carry enough oxygen to our cells so they can keep working.
From our lungs, this oxygen rich blood goes to our hearts, where it is pumped out into our bodies through the biggest artery in our body, the aorta. Our aorta branches into many other arteries that deliver this blood, which contains all of that fresh oxygen bound to its hemoglobin - to our brain, muscles, organs and other tissues. Once it reaches these working tissues, it drops off some if it's oxygen so these cells can use it to make ATP. Because the oxygen concentration is low at these places, it can come off of the hemoglobin. It will then pick up carbon dioxide - which is produced by working tissues as a waste product of making ATP - and once again return to our lungs where it will drop off the carbon dioxide (which we will breath out) and pick up some more fresh oxygen (which we breath in).
Hopefully this helps. These are very cool and complex processes. There are many other factors to think about when it comes to all of these processes that I described above. I hope you find them interesting and this raises more questions and furthers your study of them.
Physiology, science and medicine can be very fascinating!

quote:"You were talking earlier about kind of dismissing the Benghazi issue as one that's just political and the president recently said it's a sideshow," said Woodward. "But if you read through all these e-mails, you see that everyone in the government is saying, 'Oh, let's not tell the public that terrorists were involved, people connected to al Qaeda. Let's not tell the public that there were warnings.' I hate to show, this is one of the documents with the editing that one of the people in the state department said, 'Oh, let's not let these things out.' And I have to go back 40 years to Watergate when Nixon put out his edited transcripts to the conversations, and he personally went through them and said, 'Oh, let's not tell this, let's not show this.' I would not dismiss Benghazi. It's a very serious issue.
quote:I wasnt around for the Nixon scandals, was it as fiercely divided down the Dem/Repub lines on Watergate as all these Obama scandals?
quote:If the GOP pulls out now, they look weak
quote:They already look weak. I think the republicans are more incompetent than Obama is corrupt.
quote:The GOP really needs some new leadership.
quote:It was not THIS partisan. Some of those who led the charge against Nixon were Republicans.

Expert View special: Panmure's stock picks for 2014
Here are six shares Panmure Gordon is tipping for the year ahead.
Leave a comment!
Liontrust to reap the benefits of economic recovery
Increased fund flows and positive stock markets mean Liontrust Asset Management has 'substantial capacity to grow' over the next 12 months.
Liontrust may be small but it is 'highly geared to growth in the context of the continuing equity bull market,' said analyst Keith Baird, who put a target price of 336p on the shares. They closed yesterday at 253p
Baird expects assets under management (AUM) to increase and a pick-up in the UK economy to benefit the company's flagship Special Situations fund, run by Citywire AA-rated Anthony Cross and Julian Fosh.
'The Special Situations fund makes up 40% of AUM and has underperformed because of a tilt towards UK mid-caps, while the broad market has run up on larger cap banks and miners,' he said.
'The recovery in the UK economy will in our view benefit UK mid-caps.'

Time for Dechra to put war chest to work
Dechra Pharmaceuticals (DECP.L) could go on an overseas acquisition trail in order to grow its business in 2014, said analyst Savvas Neophytou.
Neophytou put a 850p target price on the shares, thanks to its £150 million war chest, good cash flow and access to predictable, fast growing markets.
He said the supplier of veterinary drugs could even become a bid target itself.
'Investment in Dechra Pharmaceuticals allows investors access to large and fast growing markets which are relatively predictable without much economic cycle volatility,' he said. 'The company commands a 9.1% market share of the UK veterinary pharmaceutical market. With good growth expected in coming years, we expect Dechra to offer good capital appreciation from current levels.'

First Derivatives to become a 'big data player'
A strong 2013 for financial software provider First Derivatives (FDP.L) showed it stake its claim as a 'genuine big data player' that sets it up for an even better 2014, said analyst Adam Lawson.
Last year the company secured big deals, including one with the New York Stock Exchange, and Lawson said the next 12 months will see the company benefit from its hard work.
'These deals created ripples in underlying customer markets, and we fully expect these ripples to turn into a flood of demand in 2014,' said Lawson.
Lawson placed a target price of £14.58 on the shares as he believed 'positive share price momentum' will be achieved in the next 12 months as First Derivatives continues to talk to big players in Silicon Valley. The shares closed 4.8% higher at £13.55 yesterday. They have spiked 28% in the past month.
Leave a comment!
Speedy on the fast track to success
Vehicle rental company Speedy Hire (SDY.L) performed well in 2013 but the shares have further to go despite accounting irregularities in its Middle East operations and the resignation of the chief executive.
Speedy Hire shares have a target price of 69p, according to Paul Jones. He said the company 'is a consistently improving UK story, with cost reductions from depot consolidation and increasing levels of efficiency as a result'.
The company has forged closer links with larger customers and longer contracts that will 'increase visibility' and provide 'additional contract wins as recovery progresses'.
'We believe there are green shoots in a number of areas that could be very beneficial for Speedy as the leading player in UK asset rental markets,' said Jones. The shares closed 2.5% up at 70.75p.
Leave a comment!
M&A activity to help Xchanging in 2014
Technology provider Xchanging (XCH.L) will 'step up the pace' this year and could also benefit from mergers and acquisitions.
Panmure analyst Mike Allen placed a target price of 190p on the shares and said the company had 'come a long way' since problems in 2011 and had used 2012/13 to 'get fit again'. He expected earnings per share to deliver at least 15% growth from 2015.
'Due to the on-going divestment of a number of legacy businesses/contracts, it's been difficult to assess the underlying growth in the business,' said Allen. 'We are assuming 2014 is a year of investment for the company, but from 2015 the business should be capable of earnings per share growth of at least 15% with niche acquisitions also likely to underpin this growth.'

A couple in the US has reportedly been woken up by the sound of a man's voice in their home only to discover the stranger had hacked an internet-connected webcam being used as a baby monitor. The incident has once again highlighted the dangers of poor security on net-capable smart devices in the home.
The couple are said to have been shocked to hear a man screaming in their 10-month-old daughter's room, trying to wake her up. The Daily Mail said the Ohio couple kept an eye on the sleeping baby using a smartphone which connected wirelessly to an internet-connected webcam attached to the crib. The unknown intruder had hacked into the camera from outside the home.
It's not the first incident of its kind, after another US incident last year in which a man reportedly gained control of a net-connected webcam in the baby's bedroom of a home in Texas.
Remote access baby monitors and web cameras are becoming more popular, as they allow parents to keep a close eye (and ear) on their child from anywhere in the home or even outside. The nature of the device means that people often leave them on all or most of the time. But whether you use a specially designed baby monitor or remotely accessible webcam for the same purpose, it can be vulnerable to hackers.
You need to secure your modem/router to prevent unauthorised access and any device that connects directly to the internet.
However, any and all devices that connect to the internet need to have proper security in place. This includes net-connected baby monitors, IP-webcams (smartcams), PC-connected webcams, PCs, modems and routers.
There are a few relatively simple things you can do to keep your connection secure. The first steps are to change its network name and enable encryption with a strong password. When setting up your IP camera, consider the following:

NEW YORK--OCTOBER 11, 2012-- Nonstop fares to Denver from New York City were just slashed to $138 roundtrip, including taxes, in peak ski season. This is the lowest price we've seen in 2012 on this popular route.
Travel is available November-February (holiday dates are not available at this price), including weekend itineraries, and saves as much as $250 on the usual cost of this route. Flying into Denver puts travelers within driving distance of popular ski resorts such as Vail, Breckenridge and Keystone.
Note: This fare, which can be found by using Fly.com's Low Fare Calendar, is unadvertised and could disappear at any time.
Travelzoo Tip: During this time, 4-star hotels and luxury spas across Colorado, as well as activities like Rocky Mountain trail rides, are discounted by at least 40%.

Best Collection Dedicated to a Best-Selling Author
Shortly before he died in late 1997, best-selling author James Michener revealed that he wanted the University of Northern Colorado -- where he'd gotten his master's degree and first started writing -- to become the official repository of his works, a gift he wrapped up with a half-million-dollar donation to establish the archive. Today, the James A. Michener Special Collection fills 400 feet of the library also named after him, a vast expanse consumed not just by notes for his many novels, but also by his false teeth, his typewriter, and a list of all the payments he received for Centennial, his epic novel about Colorado. And the collection is still growing.

text: Playscape maximizes the potential of play by fusing the elements of the natural environment with those of a more traditional playground. Through its role as both jungle gym and secret hiding space, Playscape is designed to facilitate children's play and interaction, and is intended to enhance their physical, social, emotional and cognitive development. The colors, texture and hierarchy of opening sizes in Playscape help develop a child's sense of balance, co-ordination and sensory impressions. Two elements make up the design of this structure: a curvilinear wall punctured by colorful cubes. Children engage the surface by climbing, sitting or hiding. Lower level portals allow children to pass through the surface and provide access to the interior climbing area. Plexiglass panels cap the upper level cubes in order to create safe lookout points for young explorers. The Playscape system can be installed in both indoor and outdoor environments at a scale and configuration appropriate to the budget and needs of the playgroup. The flexibility of the design facilitates individual and group investigation for children between the ages of four and nine. In addition, the recycled rubber surface material is extremely safe and durable.

At Washington Wizards Dec. 9th 7:00 PM TV - FS Detroit HD Radio WDFN 1130 The Pistons attempt to defeat the Wiz for the second time this season. Washington is playing without their starting center, Brendan Haywood and Gilbert Arenas.
Arenas is talking about leaving the team...after making all of that money, can they reaLLY AFFORD TO BRING IN IMPACT PLAYERS??
There is a game tonight folks! No comments? The Wiz do look a ittle more inspired after firing Jordan. We all know with the Pistons facing one of the worst teams does not guarantee a win!
so do we go stucky at center? he's the biggest of the 5 bulk wise.... or does rip get the short straw?
Arnie has an herbal blend and a s t r e t c h routine designed to grow our guards into forwards. Will Bynum used to be 4'2''.
Caron Butler & Creature from the Black Lagoon..................LMAO That movie was scary back in the day. We probably don't have many forumites that remember that movie!
JMax and Amir with DNP's at the half, Hermann with 10 minutes. Haven't been able to catch too many games, did they play themselves out of the rotation or is Curry just trying something different?
With an 8 point deficit in the 4th. I'm ready to see who gets thrown under the bus after this game. I remember when we got our 4th win, We still had Chauncey. Washington should get their 4th tonight.
I think sadly Curry might be an idiot. I'm really trying to hold off judgment, but between his obsession with short people, and very questionable lineups i'm having a hard time giving him the benefit of the doubt right now. The small line-up sucks, and it's only somewhat successful when Sheed is in. With Amir in the SL 4-0; W/O Amir = bad. If you took him out b/c it was wearing on Sheed to play center, your solution is to play Sheed at center as our only big ? Kwame also plays fantastic against his former teams, and IIRC was lighting up the Wiz last time. He's a DNP as well. I really don't understand why all your bigs are being benched. Do we not care about rebounding ? Between AI's defense on the pick and roll, and our 6'7 and under line-ups, i think i need to refrain from watching the games and maybe stick to the box score. It's alot less frustrating that way. I just don't understand what it is we're trying to accomplish. And i really want to know where the superstar that we traded for is b/c i don't see him on this team. In fact i think he might be in DEN. All in all, my basic opinion is WTF?! edited to add; If this continues what's Joe D going to do? Trade some more ? Seems like an asinine solution. Sadly, i think it's nearing the point where Joe D should trade himself. edited to add again (i love this button); If Sheed is blamed in the press after this game, i will scream.
At first Dumars has to admit that he is responsible. He screwed thing up. I have also withheld my comment on this TRADE but I do not see how MC will merge AI to team. Too tough nut for cracking. More frightening is how Rip already has found his groove but it absolutely does not affect AI and vice versa. I mean: Rip gets more good looks from Stuckey. Trying to rise an issue on D is absolutely hopeless. Both tay and rip are in D OK but their efforts are nullified by AI and Stuckey. Welcome to teal era.
i'll let you all discuss among yourselves and save it for the podcast, which i will participate in 2 weeks. we all saw the game. i don't see how you can pin any of this on Rip. he's over his grieving.

Speaking soon after his club coach Gordon Igesund was announced as Bafana Bafana's new man in charge, Prins said: "We have only signed Felix Obada so far, but he is going to bring something different to our team and this is what we will expect from any new signings too.
"We are looking to sign game breakers, but there is no pressure on us either. We can start the season with 21 players, the same squad we have now, because everyone is contracted."
Swallows have 18 players with contracts in place while three or four others who are training with the team are "about to sign" according to Prins.
"So this takes the pressure off us trying to run around and sign players. Now we can look for what we really need," he says.
Swallows are expecting a striker from Georgia anytime now. He was recommended by Georgian defender Giorgi Nergadze.
It is understood that Swallows respect Nergadze's opinion because he has been in the country for a while now and has an idea of what it takes to play in the PSL.
