39 year old man | Hopatcong, NJ, USA | Seeking women 30-45 within 50 miles
Active within 24 hours
Not all who wander are lost. Seriously, I've got a map in here somewhere ;)
First and foremost I am a dad. I have a 10 year-old daughter and a 11 year-old son who are my life. What I am looking for is for someone to share in that life with us. I love kids, so if you have some of your own, then the more the merrier! I spend a lot of my time coaching my kids sports teams (football, baseball and softball). Kids don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care. I love the outdoors, whether it is just hanging out in the yard BBQ'ing with friends, playing sports, or camping out. I love a good campfire and making S'mores with the kids. I got the hiking bug a few years ago and have taken a few multi-day trips along the Appalachian Trail and a 50 mile swamp tromp through the western everglades in Florida this past Christmas. The kids, dog and I did a 4 day backpacking trip in the Shenandoah National Park wilderness in June. I play in a men's softball league on Sunday mornings and do CrossFit as often as I can get there! This year I've ran 3 Tough Mudders and a Warrior Dash. They're a blast! Life is an adventure and the adventure is so much better when shared! It doesn't matter where you are or what you are doing as long as you enjoy being together! When you enjoy being with someone, then everything you do together is fun! I am in a really great place in my life and am happy with who I am and where I am going. It is important for me to find someone who is the same. I want someone who I can love and be affectionate with and who will show me love and affection in return. I want to be able to walk in the door and be greeted with a kiss or a hug and a how was your day, or vice-versa if I am home first. I want to be able to take long walks holding your hand (preferably in the woods with a backpack on) or to cuddle up in front of the fire with a bottle of wine and a good movie. I want to be able to say the words 'I love you' and to hear them in return. I want someone who will be my friend, my partner and my lover. Someone who will be as supportive of me as I will be of her. I'm also really looking for someone who is as active and involved as I am. Someone who loves an adventure and isn't afraid to get dirty. Someone who wants to backpack, camp, kayak, play sports, work out, run, practice yoga and do Tough Mudders with me. FYI: I have primary residential custody of my kids. They are with me for the school year and visit their mom in Florida for most of the summer and every major school holiday (Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Break).

Middle of the Road
My CrossFit Box. Camping and hiking in the woods. Running on a trail or through some mud. Kayaking on the lake. Yoga studio. Any field with a ball and a group of kids (grown up kids count too).
Coaching kids sports. Backpacking trips. Kayaking. Yoga. Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Grimm, zombie movies. Like mostly rock and alternative music but my daughter commandeers the radio so I'm stuck listening to pop most of the time.
I coach my kids baseball, softball and football teams. CrossFit, camping, hiking, kayaking, yoga, golf, roller coasters, playing softball. Summer BBQ's and the pool! Quiet nights at home with someone special in front of the fire are always nice!
A Song of Ice and Fire, 50 Shades, Gates of Fire, Life of Pi, Hunger Games. I Like RA Salvatore, Clancy, Koontz, Dan Brown, Crighton, Cook, Cussler, Ann Rice, Ed Greenwood, Tolkien and more. Nothing beats a good book on a rainy day!

From The Bronx To The Bench: The Family Photos Of Justice Sotomayor
By editor
It was a long road to the Supreme Court. On the way, Justice Sonia Sotomayor faced a diabetes diagnosis, her father's death to alcoholism and her cousin's overdose. For Sotomayor, life began in the Bronx, in tenement housing in a community of Puerto Rican immigrants. She gave NPR exclusive access to a huge suitcase brimming with family photos and tells her story in this multimedia experience.

I think this article completely misses the real discussion about oil in Mexico and describes a very superficial even radical version of its domestic politics. First of all, Mexico's expropriation of oil was not a victory over imperialism, if anything it means one of the most important achievements of the Mexican Revolution against authoritarianism within the country. As a result of that, revolutionary governments from Álvaro Obregón to Manuel Ávila Camacho undertook a huge process of bureaucratic reform in the country, which included the review of the oil contracts with British and American companies. What happened was that during the violent period of the Revolution (1911 to 1920) these companies barely invested in new exploration and extraction, so production stagnated. It was only until 1921 that the American companies resumed production and oil began to flow again. Moreover, with the threat of nationalization included in articles 25, 27 and 28 of the 1917 Constitution, foreign companies were worried that their assets would be expropriated, so the government proposed the Bucarelli accords of 1923 to guarantee that there would not be any nationalization if companies could prove that they had a minimum of operations at the time. The result was that most of these companies did not have the elements to prove actual production, condition that worsened with the meager living conditions provided to local employees. Conditions deteriorated until 1938 when president Cárdenas proposed an agreement to the foreign companies in early March, which was rejected. Once these companies saw that expropriation was imminent, they accepted the deal on March 16, but the president had already taken the decision to expropriate.
Second, what this article describes as "such stranglehold over oil" is a manichean way of describing the real issue behind. I mean, do you think that controlling the number one income source of a country and the most politicized commodity in the world is just a matter of "effectively taxing and regulating" the industry? There is a natural tension between companies and governments that makes things way harder than that. It is the fact that companies do not only want managerial control over production, but actual control over reserves so that they can value higher their assets at the stock market, whereas countries might want to control depletion of their non-renewable resources. I would not compare the case of Colombia to the case of Mexico. I understand the benefits of their particular regulatory framework, which in reality has to do with sending the right price signals to the market, but not necessarily their production figures. What would happen if there is another price collapse? Companies are not going to find it profitable to invest and leave the business.
I think that the lessons of more than a hundred years of history is that oil producing countries should be very careful to accept foreign investment. To that respect, the most accepted solutions are the Profit Sharing Agreements, but I really don't think that Mexico has defined a long-term strategic objective of what to do with its resources. Until governments do that, I think it would be at serious risk of committing many mistakes of opening up the sector in a rush.
"EL PETROLEO es nuestro!" ("The oil is ours!"). This cry, which rang out in the streets when President Lázaro Cárdenas nationalised the oil industry in 1938, still resonates in Mexico. Bizarrely, it is used as a slogan both by the government, which is proposing to throw open the oil industry to private investment, and by those trying to organise a referendum against the move. Few countries in the world (not even Cuba or North Korea) have such a stranglehold over their oil; the state controls everything from the bottom of the well to the tip of the petrol pump. Yet in other respects Mexico is an open economy; foreigners even own its favourite beer, Corona. Why should oil be so sacred?
The answer is that oil is as much a historical asset for Mexicans as an economic one. For many countries independence from colonial rulers is their defining act of sovereignty. Mexico, too, celebrates the independence it won from Spain in 1810, but after that it lost half its territory to the United States in 1848, and continued to let foreign firms plunder its oil until even after the 1910-17 revolution. When Mr Cárdenas seized the oil industry overnight from the hands of British and American companies that had resisted unionisation in the 1930s, it was celebrated like a great victory against imperialism; people lined up to hand over everything from chickens to jewellery to help pay for the expropriation. Lorenzo Meyer, a left-wing Mexican historian, argues that reversing course 75 years later and allowing private and foreign investment would make 1938 just another in a long line of "historic defeats".
That is going too far. Mexico can tax and regulate its energy industry well enough, as countries like Colombia do, to get at least as much reward from its oil as it does now, while letting the private sector bear part of the risk. The problem is, Mexicans don't trust their governors—or their regulators. They have watched the privatisation of Telmex, the telecommunications firm, make Carlos Slim the richest man in the world, at little benefit to themselves. Their foreign-owned banks are models of shoddy service. They fear that the biggest benefits of energy liberalisation will accrue to the few, not to Mexicans at large.
That is why the government needs to create a new narrative about its oil, rather than cynically claim that it remains faithful to the old one. Oil may nominally belong to all Mexicans, but the bureaucracy and the oil-workers' union currently benefit disproportionately from it. It is also a dwindling asset. If properly regulated, private investment can help diversify Mexico's supply of hydrocarbons, tapping deep-water oil and shale gas, for example, and cutting their costs. Cheaper energy would help Mexico become more competitive, as it has the United States. That would be a modern-day victory worth celebrating.

Product description
All is not well at Buckshaw, home of Flavia de Luce...With the family finances in a parlous state, Flavia's father has, with deep misgivings, rented Buckshaw to a film company for a location shooting. Naturally enough, director, crew and stars do nothing to endear themselves to the household - especially the servants - until, when a heavy snowfall cuts off Bishop's Lacey from the rest of the world, the actors are talked into staging a benefit performance in the parish hall. But old jealousies surface, and the leading lady is murdered. Flavia, who has been enlisted to help out behind the scenes, finds herself up to her knees in snow - and murder!

Rosanna raspberries
Is there any one out there who is growing Rosanna raspberries, with success? This raspberry does truely taste like candy. But it is the worst raspberry in the world when it comes to Orange Rust. Looking to exchange notes with any one who has figured out how to grow it under organic means. So far I have only been able to find plants at Raintree nursery. Thanks Bob Harper
Can some one explain the difinition of a cold hardy fig. Some thirty years ago I noticed three figs planted up against a south facing building in Connecticut. Had a chance to visit the area yesterday. Found the figs still there after some thirty years, and they were totaly unprotected. But, instead of there being three fig plants there must be at least 20 or more plants. They have created a colony of figs about 4 feet by 10 feet. The colony appears to have been able to be larger. But some one turned the back yard were the figs were into a parking area for cars. So the figs could not spread any further. The colony appears to be about 8 feet tall. I took about five cuttings. After getting them home I noticed that some of the cuttings had any where from 12" to 16" of die back. But even the ones with die back where at least 6' tall. The cuttings with no die back came from plants that were around 8 feet tall I intend to go back and get more cuttings to start here. Take ruler and camera to record them. My question is would all three be considered cold hardy since they are 6' feet. Or only the ones that had no winter kill. I'm going to try start cuttings But,I only want to start the most cold hardy It got as low as minus 10 degrees here last winter and as low as minus 20 degrees within the last 30 years. Thanks for your input. Bob Harper

Hi: 13° Lo:7°
By Connie Osborne Thursday 20 December 2012 Updated: 20/12 20:46
HEARTLESS thieves stole a charity's festive lights just days before Christmas.
Staff at Batchley Support Group found the lights missing from the tree in the centre of the district on Wednesday night (December 19).
Chair Maureen Muckle said she was devastated and heartbroken.
"I'm angry, I'm upset and I'm utterly heartbroken someone could steal them. This was something for the whole community, for everyone to enjoy at Christmas and now it has been taken away from us all.
"Nothing like this has ever happened before and it is just completely out of the blue. We are not used to this sort of thing happening on this estate and I think everyone's in shock.
Although the cost of the lights is not known, the charity spends around £500 on installing the tree and its decorations.
Pleading for their return, Mrs Muckle added: "That money could have been spent on other things if I knew this would happen. What an awful waste and what an awful time for this to happen. I just don't know how anyone could do this.
"We work hard to raise the money and make this an enjoyable time for the residents.
" I just want the people who did this to give them back. If anyone knows anything about it or saw anything please let us know. I just want to see those lights back up on that tree."
Anyone with any information about the theft should call police on non-emergency number 101, quoting crime reference number 159-S-191212, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

We were in the area for house hunting and family visits. The Residence Inn and the staff could not have been better. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to cook when we wanted to. The bed was very comfortable. The multi-room layout (1 bedroom unit) provided flexibility and privacy when we wanted. The desk staff and housekeepers were friendly and helpful. Proximity to the light rail, Hunt Valley Mall, and Wegman's were frosting on the cake.

Morgans Hotel Group
The hotel group that currently runs stylish and high-end hotels in the US and UK, has just announced plans of building a hotel in Dubai.
September 9, 2008 6:04 by kippreport
The company was floated on the Nasdaq two years ago. It recorded a net loss of $700,000 for the second quarter of 2008, compared to net income of $800,000 in the same period last year. The company attributed the loss to stock compensation expense, depreciation and amortization.
As of June 30 this year, the group's consolidated debt stood at around $730m and its liquidity was around $206m. The group expects to spend approximately $25m for hotel renovation and expansion projects and $20- $30m for joint venture projects in 2008 and 2009.
The group authorized a $30m stock repurchase program on July 1 this year, and bought 1.1 million shares of its stock for $12.2m.

For the third year in a row, Naval Support Activity Bethesda (NSAB) will partner with the Washington Area Bicyclist Association (WABA) to encourage base staff members to "Bike to Work" on May 18.
Bike to Work Day promotes bicycling as an alternative method of travel that's clean, fun and healthy.
"Studies show between 18 to 20 percent of people in the Washington D.C. area live within five miles of their workplace," said Ryan Emery, transportation coordinator for NSAB. "With that being said, this is a great opportunity for everyone living in the area to try riding a bike to work that morning."
A recent commuter survey conducted by NSAB revealed that less than three percent of base staff members regularly ride a bike to work.
Besides the physical benefits, there are more advantages to consider when planning your commute.
"We are not only promoting a healthy living, but we are also encouraging everyone to consider using different modes of transportation when coming to work," said Dwight Jackson, intramural sports manager for NSAB. "If you are riding your bike, then you don't have to worry about morning traffic and parking when you arrive. It's a great way to start your day."
While last year's event brought more than 100 participants, organizers are hoping more people come out.
"Our goal is to get more than 150 people registered for the event," said Emery. "Registration is open right now. Bike to Work Day will provide participants with more than 50 region-wide pit stops. MWR (Morale, Welfare and Recreation) has sponsored a pit stop on base, located at the south gate from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. At the pit stop, we will provide participants with T-shirts, music and refreshments."
For interested participants, Emery said there are a few things to be completed prior to the event.
"Registration is important," he said. "After registering, everyone should plan out their route. There are a lot of trails, unfamiliar to most people, running out of Washington D.C. to Bethesda that can make their ride quicker and easier. The third thing would be to try and find some friends to ride with you."
Emery also noted all participants should enjoy the ride to work, but plan to follow basic bicycle safety guidelines including wearing a helmet and reflective clothing and riding responsibly.
For more information and to register for Bike to Work Day, go to www.Biketoworkmetrodc.org.

Moody Hues: The Mysterious World of Black Houses
In my 2nd grade journal, written in unmistakable kid scribble, my 7-year-old self declared purple as my favorite color. As an adult, one who's come to love Scandinavian design and lives in dark monochromatic frocks, I'm more partial to a new hue: Black. And these moody facades tell me I'm not alone.

If you're looking to upgrade your office, look no further than these 10 picks, each of which is as beautiful as it is useful.
An Unexpected & Divine Paris Apartment
As someone who has been obsessed with interiors for most of my life, I absorb so much content daily from work, blogs, vendors, etc. that it's rare for me to come across something so surprising that it completely stops me in my tracks.

How To Go Minimal & Moody Without Seeming Too Dark & Sparse
Is minimal and moody a look you're hoping to transition to as 2014 continues rolling on? Dark, matte, moody colors create interesting, sophisticated spaces, perfect for those who like bold rooms but don't want startling pops of color. It's the sort of color palette that leads to powerfully dramatic interiors.

As such, it deals extensively with the growth in the securitised real estate markets of Real Estate Investment Trusts and Mortgage Backed Securities. It also examines the real estate derivatives market.
The programme combines the rigour of a mainstream finance programme with the direct application of financial theory and techniques in a real estate context. To apply for this programme you should have a relevant undergraduate degree or work experience, along with strong quantitative skills.

This is make or break for me on this skin. It looks hideous to me when its up, I get the whole silhouette thing. but I think we can all understand its Cait. At least give the option.
Also I'm sure im not the only player who feels that her hat is the worst thing about her silhouette to begin with.
Having it come down for abilites is cool and all, but having it up all the time is less cool, much less. For those that choose to keep it up it could still come down for their abilities.
Any comments?
To reiterate, this will be the diff maker whether or not I buy this skin.

2002 Jaguar XK-Series XKR Review
One of the most beautiful cars ever made based on the E Type
No usable back seat but who cares?
Sexy — I fell in love with this car the moment I saw it. Although it is a few years old now I still think that no other Jag comes close to the looks of the beauty and the compliments never stop coming.
Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

2002 Jaguar XK-Series XK8 Convertible Review
This is a drivers car. My second, the first was an XKE. This is one of the Ford Quality Controlled Vehicles and it shows. This car has never let me down, short of 1 flat tire I have never been "on the shoulder". Luxury and comfort this is truly an affordable exotic. The comparable model on today's market is over $95K.
Although my local Firestone Dealer can service this car, he has to order simple parts like oil filters which add a day to the process.
This Is The Most "fun" Car I Have Ever Owne. — This car drives like it is "on rails". I have owned other high performance cars but this one out performs even my favorite Corvette. More importantly, it does it in total quiet and comfort that you would expect from a luxury sport car. Jaguar has always been an exotic but this one takes out the reliability fear associated with the old Jag's. With Ford's oversight Jaguar is a new beast, and a force to be reckoned with. I was torn between the XK8 or a Mercedes SLK....until I drove them both.....there was no question after that.

The theme of the 2015 Tokyo International Photography Competition is "The Human Condition"
Submissions will be accepted between April 15 – June 22, 2015
About the Competition
The goal of the Tokyo International Photography Competition (TIPC) is to create a series of cultural and geographical bridges between some the world's largest photographic communities. It provides a unique opportunity for photographers from across the world to present their artistic visions beyond their country's borders and open up possibilities for cross-pollination and cross-border collaborations.
There are numerous competitions whose aim is to discover new photographic talent from around the globe, but many of these opportunities are often beyond the reach of those who do not speak a certain language or have a deep understanding of a particular culture. This has often been the case for Japanese photographers trying to enter foreign markets and for foreigners wanting to present and exhibit their work in Japan.
The launch of TIPC in 2013 was the first step of a three-year journey that will culminate this October with the inauguration of the 1st edition of the Tokyo International Photography Festival, presented by the Tokyo Institute of Photography, in cooperation with United Photo Industries of Brooklyn, NY.
A select group of internationally renowned jurors from around the world will review all the images submitted and nominate 8 talented photographers whose work will be exhibited as part of a traveling exhibition that will kick off in Tokyo (Japan), before heading out to New York (USA), Berlin (DE), Guatemala City (GT), and beyond!

I received the Backstage magazine today and saw in the back that AP's get a $20 off coupon for a 'single purchase over $100. Does anyone know if I have to buy a single item for $100 OR if I can go to one of the participating shops and just spend over $100 on various items and use the coupon?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Future Mountaineer Cottrill stars
By John Fitzpatrick
Scouts Inc.
MORGANTOWN, W. Va. -- The 2009 Triple S Harley Davidson Jam Fest was an extremely well run event at the spectacular facilities of West Virginia University. Rob Kennedy and his Hoop Group Team led by Steve Ott again organized and ran this first-class event with precision. The summer is full of great events with high-level play on the court, but the combination of great facilities and an extremely well organized program has allowed this tournament of more than 220 teams to become a must stop on the summer circuit for both college coaches and youth teams in the Northeast.
The level of play in this tournament grew by the hour as the teams moved from pool play into bracket play very quickly. As the more accomplished teams advanced, the intensity became white hot. The quarter final round of the U-17 bracket showcased some of the most hotly-contested games of the summer -- all four quarter final games were decided by fewer than 3 points.
The surprise team of the tournament had to be the God's Glory 17 and under team from Washington, DC. Coach Harmon's group engineered victories over two very highly respected teams on the way to the championship game. Their wins over Expressions Elite of Massachusetts in the second round and Team NJ Elite in the semifinals could go down as the biggest surprises of the summer. God's Glory showed a toughness, scoring ability, and "refuse to lose" attitude throughout the tournament. They were rewarded with the trip to the finals, where they met up with the eventual champion, Ohio Basketball Club. OBC was led by the future West Virginia University commit, Noah Cottrill (Poca, W. Va./ Mountain State Academy). The final game in the U-17 bracket between God's Glory and the Ohio Basketball Club was very entertaining theater, but the talented group from Ohio prevailed 86-70. The OBC was led by the aggressive play Cottrell who demonstrated all elements of his game while leading his team with 32 points, mostly from outside the 3 point arc. TJ McConnell (Bridgeville, Pa./Chartiers Valley), a 5-9 point guard who committed to Duquesne, paired with Cottrell to form a championship backcourt that could not be controlled.
Standout Players
Maurice Walker
, Forward (6-10, 248)
2010, Toronto/Brewster Academy, Team Takeover
Walker is gifted with the attributes of a very successful basketball athlete. He is very strong and has a huge frame to add muscle and tighten up as he matures. During the tournament this week, he showed a relentless effort to bang inside with the men and his natural gifts served him well. He hammered down many impressive dunks in traffic and ran the floor very well for a man of his size. Walker is not afraid of contact. Right now, he needs to continue to demand the ball in the post as his teammates sometime overlooked this talented big man. His back to the basket jump hook and drop step are very polished going to his right hand, but he needs to continue to improve on some counter moves and going to his weak hand.
Noah Cottrill
, Point (6-3, 185)
2010 Poca, W. Va./ Mountain State Academy, Ohio Basketball Club
Cottrill's confidence and presence on the floor were felt throughout the tournament. He willed his team into the finals and onto a championship win. He had 32 points and eight assists in the finals; he pushed the tempo of the game and brought his entire team to a higher level. This 2010 WVU commitment has a court presence unparalleled in the high school ranks this year. Cottrill is a perfect fit for the Mountaineers and should be able to thrive under Bob Huggins. Between 3-pointers, which he knocked down, his aggressive mentality had him pushing the ball quickly up the floor and leading his teammates on many great passes that led directly to layups. His speed with the ball is very impressive, and Cottrill's passing certainly kept his teammates aggressively playing a fast breaking game, but he also showed a great desire on the defensive end to harass the ball and take a charge on an out of control opponent. The excitement of playing in front of Coach Huggins and the WVU staff and fans electrified the building.
Nate Lubick
, Power Forward (6-8, 220) 2010 Southborough, Mass./Saint Mark's School, New England Playaz
Georgetown recruit Nate Lubick is a gifted passer.
This skilled forward has the body of an inside banger, but the passing ability, vision, and basketball IQ of a quality Big East forward. He will take his skills to Georgetown University next season and be a perfect fit in John Thompson's program. During this tournament, he was just coming off an ankle injury that had him a little tentative during the first few games in Morgantown, but as the tournament progressed, his confidence in his rehabbed ankle allowed him to show his skills and his toughness. During the tournament, he exhibited an outstanding awareness offensively and understood fully how to utilize his big frame to position himself for easy open shots. Many skilled big men don't exhibit his same level of energy at both ends of the court, and he was able to wear down every opponent he faced. No big forward in this tournament demonstrated the same vision in the half-court offense. This allowed him to get his teammates easy, open shots. When defenders tried to press up on him and body him away from the basket, they were quickly reminded that a back door cut often leads to a lay-up. While facing up on the outside, if teams did not respect his shot, they were quickly made to pay as he dropped several perimeter jumpers during the course of the tournament.
Tyrone Johnson
, combo guard (6-3, 180)
2011 Plainfield, N.J./ Team New Jersey Elite
During the course of the tournament, many discussions were held by the fans and coaches in attendance. The debate as to who was the best player at the tournament will rage on for at least the next few days. Johnson's 43-point effort in one game during pool play certainly has him in the discussion. The soft-spoken, no nonsense, guard scored in transition on pure speed, and when needed, he was able to leave his defender behind with a variety of nifty dribble moves. However, it is his silky smooth spot-up 3-point shot that truly makes him a nightmare for his defender. The combination of speed, quickness, and unselfish play made him unstoppable. Back home in Plainfield, he has developed a reputation both as a football player and as a point guard who could bring him to the highest levels in either sport. Unlike many of his peers, he allows his game to do the talking and goes about his business with a very workman like demeanor. If he should choose basketball as his sport, he is being recruited heavily right now by Georgetown, West Virginia, Villanova, Indiana, and Seton Hall. He has built his reputation in New Jersey and that is why he is being recruited by most of the Big East, but coaches from the rest of the country will soon learn about Johnson. He is very unique in that he is a high level player at point guard and a high level player at the shooting guard, many players with those unique skills are described as combo-guards, but Tyrone adapts totally to the position he is playing. When he is a point guard, he is a good distributor and leader. When he moves to the off guard, he shows the movement without the ball and the shooting touch of a big time scorer.
DaJuan Coleman, Center (6-9, 255)
2012 Dewitt, N.Y./ Westchester Hawks
Coleman's body defies logic for someone so young. His huge frame, strength, and athletic ability would make you think he is going to be a sophomore in college, not a sophomore in high school. Another surprise is the emotional maturity he shows on the court. To Coleman's credit, he is a young man who is able to represent himself in a first-class manner on the court. He is gifted with long arms, a huge frame, speed and quickness of the highest level players in the country. While watching him play the first time, I did not look at my roster sheet, and thought that he was another Big East type center or power forward. Thirty minutes after the game, I found out that he was only a sophomore. My jaw dropped in surprise, and I am still in awe of this extremely young person's ability and physical maturity. Coleman scored on a variety of well schooled jump hooks, drop steps, and up and under moves that obviously have been drilled into him for many years. Not afraid of contact, he showed an equal ability to defend in the post and use his frame to prevent his opponents from scoring. His first possession that I watched was a dream play by any big man. The possession included a defensive rebound and outlet pass, then he ran the floor with enough speed to finish the play with a tip dunk of a missed layup. That type of effort, speed and awareness allowed me to fully understand the tremendous upside of this young prodigy. If he's able to continue to grow and improve, his ceiling is limitless.
Surprise players
Tyler Olander
, Power Forward (6-9, 230)
2011 Worcester, Mass./Worcester Academy, Expressions Elite
Orlander is a very good young prospect whose raw frame is still growing. He has the look of a young colt just coming out of the barn. Each trip down the floor he showed growth and improvement from the previous possession. This young power forward appears to be on track to be an elite level Big East type 4 man. Right now, he is gaining strength and maturity, but he is already showing signs that he will become one of the best. He scores in transition and with his back to the basket, like you would expect from a high quality, young power forward. He runs the floor effortlessly and his natural strength allows him to position and score inside with ease. However, the biggest surprise was seeing him catch the ball outside the arc and drain several spot-up 3-pointers. After the defense began to press up on him and force him away from the easy, open 30point attempt, he put the ball on the floor and finished with authority on a baseline drive. His surprising all-around game should propel him to the highest levels.
Laurent Revard, Small Forward (6-5, 218)
2010 Northfield, MA/ Mount Herman High School/ Expressions Elite
One of the true sleepers in the tournament was this young man from Massachusetts. He doesn't pass the look test of an elite level player. His body appears slower than his production on the court. In watching very closely, he surprised me time and time again with his defensive ability to challenge the shot of much quicker and smaller players. Each time his opponent drove into the lane, Revard was able to move his feet to stay in front of a driving jitter bug and challenge the final shot. His basketball IQ and court vision enabled him to consistently locate the right teammate for the next pass. However, what allowed him to stand out was his ability to effortlessly knock down 3 after 3. The thing that separates him from many other shooters, and what makes him intriguing to the next level, is his big frame and strength that allows him to play against the stronger elite level players in this tournament effectively. I'm not saying he's a shoe-in for the highest level, but he certainly brings something to the table that many of today's athletes don't provide. He can score, doesn't turn it over, can finish on the break, won't get knocked off the ball because of his size, and no one shot better throughout the tournament.
Donte Thomas, Scoring Guard (6-2, 185)
2011 Washington, D.C./ Ballou High School, God's Glory
This slashing wing guard helped lead his team into the finals of the U-17 bracket. Thomas can score, shoot and defend. Moreover, this kid's a winner. His movement without the basketball would remind many of players from a different era. He was constantly in motion and making himself a difficult defensive assignment. Time and time again Thomas curled off of baseline screens to receive the ball in the middle of the lane and then he would step back, creating space, for an easy 14-foot jump shot. After seeing him do it three or four times in a game during pool play, I thought his opponent may be able to take that part of his game away, but his ability to create space on that curl cut combined with his quick release allowed him to beat his defender time and time again. The God's Glory team made it to the finals because of his scoring ability and their overall team play. Thomas really separated himself as a player with a very bright future.
Derrick Gordon
, Combo Guard (6-3, 175)
2011 Plainfield, N.J./ St. Patrick's, Team New Jersey Elite
Gordon is a very good scorer and an outstanding basketball player. During the tournament, he teamed with Tyrone Johnson to form a very elite backcourt. In the semi final game against the God's Glory team, Tyrone Johnson sprained his ankle in the first half. The injury was not enough to keep Johnson out of the game, but it was enough to move Gordon into a primary role, as the team's main ball handler and scorer. Gordon's toughness and nose for the basketball were evident throughout the early rounds of the tournament, on his under-sized team he found himself in position to have to rebound and have to provide the toughness needed to win. After Johnson was injured, Gordon's role changed, and he elevated his game and handled the added responsibility with ease. He has the handle of a point guard, the quickness and speed of a wing guard, and the grit of a winner. He did not show the ability to shoot consistently from outside the arc, but I'm sure as this athlete matures, he will be able to master that skill.
Kadeem Greene, Small Forward (6-8, 215)
2010 Charlotte, N.C./ United Christian Faith, Team Takeover (Canada)
This big-time athlete demonstrated time and time again his ability to get to the rim off the dribble and to out run his opponent in transition. Greene has the look of a typical SEC small forward. His long arms and basketball body will grow as he matures and gets in the weight room. Right now, he is one of the fastest and highest risers at the tournament. His ability to run the court in transition and finish on the break separated him from almost all in attendance. His Team Takeover squad advanced to the semi finals based on his abilities to score in transition. In the coming year, expect Greene to add to his game and to push his shooting range out to the 3-point arc. Greene is a true high level slasher that is getting good looks from Division One programs up and down the East Coast.
Scouting notes
• One player who really stood out and controlled the entire final game with his speed with the ball and quickness was 6-foot super jet Eugene Watkins (Washington, D.C./Ballou). No one was able to keep this young man out of the lane during the entire tournament. His leadership ability propelled God's Glory into the final game and nearly pulled off the stunning upset.
• Mid-major schools need to keep an eye on 6-5 Antonio Jennifer (Washington, D.C./McKinley Tech). He showed great promise with the God's Glory team. For anyone who had the good fortune of watching Kevin Durant play in High School for Montrose Christian High School will be able to understand this statement. Kevin had the unique ability to make shots from extremely deep range. Kevin seemed to just throw the ball up, and it seemed to go in and his release was effortless. Antonio seems to have that same ability to effortlessly make three point attempts from very long range.
John Fitzpatrick has coached in the college ranks for more than 20 years with stops at the Naval Academy, Fordham, Wichita State, Ball State, Houston, Virginia and Wright State.

I want to calculate powerset of a set. Because I don't need the whole powerset at a time, it's better to generate it lazily.
For example:
powerset (set ["a"; "b"; "c"]) =
seq {
set [];
set ["a"];
set ["b"];
set ["c"];
set ["a"; "b"];
set ["a"; "c"];
set ["b"; "c"];
set ["a";"b"; "c"];
Since the result is a sequence, I prefer it in the above order. How can I do it in an idomatic way in F#?
This is what I'm going to use (based on BLUEPIXY's answer):
let powerset s =
let rec loop n l =
seq {
match n, l with
| 0, _ -> yield []
| _, [] -> ()
| n, x::xs -> yield! Seq.map (fun l -> x::l) (loop (n-1) xs)
yield! loop n xs
let xs = s |> Set.toList
seq {
for i = 0 to List.length xs do
for x in loop i xs -> set x
Thanks everyone for excellent input.

240 M Certified Pre Owned Versus Demo
9 months ago
I am about to dive into the Leica rangefinder world. Does anyone have any thoughts and /or experience about buying a "certified pre owned" versus a demo. Both come with a regular warranty and in this case both have return privileges. When I do make a decision is there anything that I should check out that is not obvious?

Barbara Bush Family Literacy Program is a Success
In September, NICA began a nine month partnership with the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy to teach English. This grant is quite prestigious and NICA is proud to be working with the Barbara Bush Foundation.

| This book offers a comprehensive examination of the environmental health movement, which unlike many parts of the environmental movement, focuses on ways toxic chemicals and other hazardous agents in the environment effect human health and well-being. Born in 1978 when Lois Gibbs organized her neighbors to protest the health effects of a toxic waste dump in Love Canal, New York, the movement has spread across the United States and throughout the world. By placing human health at the center of its environmental argument, this movement has achieved many victories in community mobilization and legislative reform. Here the author, an environmental health expert describes the movement's historical, ideological, and cultural roots and analyzes its strategies and successes. -- Publisher's description.
